  • A Pod About Nothing - A Seinfeld Podcast (EP5 - The Stock Tip)

    Wow it took me over a year to edit this episode but its finally here...Season 1 episode 5 of Seinfeld:  The Stock Tip!  We talk about whether George is a worse person than Eric, why Scot is a much better friend to Chandru than Kramer is to Jerry, and how kinda annoying Elaine is in this episode.  Also, this episode has by far the worst skit in the history of Pointless Rewind.

  • A Pod About Nothing - A Seinfeld Podcast (EP4 - Male Unbonding)

    Check out episode 4 as Pointless Rewind goes through Seinfeld episode by episode!  Listen in as we discuss Kramerica Industries' introduction, which of the three of us would have handled Jerry's friend better, the definitive introduction to Elaine's character, Eric's adventures in ordering a lager and receiving a milk glass filled with vodka instead, the lack of side plots in Season 1, and Chandru trashing Eric's apartment in an attempt at saving his life.

  • A Pod About Nothing - A Seinfeld Podcast (EP3 - The Robbery)

    Check out the episode 3 of A Pod About Nothing as Pointless Rewind goes through Seinfeld episode by episode!  Listen in as we discuss our confusion over what episode number this is, whether Eric is Kramer or George, the perfection that is the Choose scene, and the nuanced differences between cleaning a bathroom barefoot and plunging a toilet barefoot.  All of this as we incorporate a half-assed laugh track, more Eric interruptions, and an amazing story of Scot versus a creepy/incompetent thief.

  • A Pod About Nothing - A Seinfeld Podcast (EP2 - The Stakeout)

    Check out the second episode of A Pod About Nothing as Pointless Rewind goes through Seinfeld episode by episode!  Listen to us discuss "The Stakeout" and how its a hilarious introduction to George's obsession with architecture and Art Vandelay, how this is the most normal romantic interest Jerry has in the entire show, and how this episode introduces Elaine in a less than flattering manner.  Also you get Scot threatening Eric for interrupting him, Scot not paying attention as we do the intro, and Scot's lack of success in platonic relationships.  A very Scot-centric episode as we work really hard to develop the characters we created in the pilot episode of this podcast.

  • A Pod About Nothing - A Seinfeld Podcast (Ep1 - Pilot)

    Check us out as Pointless Rewind strays into talking about Seinfeld in our first Pod About Nothing episode!  Listen to us discuss the Pilot episode's combination of clunkiness and potential, our being able to relate to all things Jerry and George not knowing what signals a woman is giving, and that maybe the Pilot episode strays a bit too far into being a show about nothing.  Also, we find time to discuss how Jerry merely gets annoyed with Kramer for ruining a Mets game for him while Chandru nearly broke up with his now-wife because some random dude ruined a Spurs game for him.  All of this while we manage to botch both the intro and outro despite having done this several times before.   Then again this might be just us being meta in an attempt to show how unpolished the pilot episode of Seinfeld is?

  • Episode 15 - Pointlessly Rewinding Back to the Future
    Check out Episode 15 where we pointlessly rewind through Back to the Future!  Tune in for a beautiful combination of analysis and befuddling remarks as we discuss Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd's amazing chemistry, how Doc's only successful "experiment" to date was setting his clocks back 25 minutes and why Eric thinks the "Pepsi Free" joke only makes sense if its about caffeine (spoiler alert, Eric was wrong).

  • Episode 14 - Pointlessly Rewinding The Thing

    Check out Episode 14 where we pointlessly rewind through The Thing and overuse "thing" puns.  Also, we discuss some of the greatest practical effects ever, some insanely good direction, when Blair became a Blair-Thing, how inexplicable it is that Evan (noted movie expert) was actually introduced to this movie by Anthony (noted guy who is on this podcast and watches all of the movies minutes before the podcast), and whether its more important to bring back the dodo or the saying "gone the way of the dodo".  Spoiler alert, its all about the saying.

  • Episode 13 - Pointlessly Rewinding Jaws
    Check out Episode 13 where we pointlessly rewind through Jaws and see how long it takes to become clear that this is Chandru's favorite movie!  Listen as we discuss maybe the finest trio of characters ever, whether the shark gets unfairly bashed for looking fake, why Jaws isn't just a "shark movie" (though Eric keeps arguing this point so he is this close to being kicked off the podcast), and whether talking about Jaws being Chandru's first method of flirting back in elementary school led to any success (it decidedly did not).  If you enjoy this, make sure to like us and suscribe on ITunes, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts and anywhere else you can find us!
