With a new show comes a new chat! This time we’re talking about the pretty hype-free Fear The Walking Dead. From following the production of this show, it really seems like no one really asked for it and not all that many people wanted it… How wrong were we?! The show broke records on its premiere. […]

Babylon 5’s J. Michael Straczynski and The Matrix’s Wachowskis teaming up for an epic, mind-bending, high-concept, Netflix sci-fi show? We’d be fools not to sit up and pay attention to Sense8… So we did! We talked in depth about episodes 1-3 and found ourselves equal parts intrigued and perplexed.

Welcome to WWE Network Triple Threat Challenge Episode 3, where we take 3 random matches from the WWE Network and have a chat about what we see, hear and feel! We break from formula slightly to discuss the passing of someone who many consider to be one of the greatest of all time, Dusty Rhodes. Jon […]

A somewhat unusual episode of the Thwipping Boys, with Jon suffering some serious issues after a dip in the local lake and the boys prepared for a ill-thought-out “call-in show” which predictably does not go according to plan. But there was a Game of Thrones season finale to discuss, dammit, and discuss it they do, […]

Traditionally, episode 9 of a Game of Thrones season has been a game changing episode of crazy moments, blood and death… While this episode didn’t quite reach the fantastic quality of Hardhome, it did continue that tradition with possibly the most distressing and despicable moment of the show so far.

Jon and Simon delve in to an email which causes impassioned discussion. Simon reveals his long-term dislike for one of the shows core stories and Jon finds that he and Stannis are kindred spirits.

After we did our Wrestlemania 31 podcast we got the bug for talking about wrestling and since discovered an awesome WWE Network Match Randomiser. So in a new series of Thwipping Boys Podcasts, we set out to watch three randomly generated matches per episode – whatever the randomiser suggests, we will watch. Among other topics […]

We reconvene to discuss episodes 5 and 6 of Game of Thrones season 5. We get an email that Simon is very happy about, we wonder just what Jacen means when “he” says Arya is ready to become someone else and we discuss *that* scene, whether the criticism has grounds or whether it’s the latest example of […]

As Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. still continues to improve week in week out, it was obviously heading for a pretty stunning Season finale and that’s what we got, but we’re horrified to learn that earned it a series low in terms of ratings. At least we know it will be back for a third Season, we can’t […]
