Save Point Sunday

Episode 4: Ian Axel & Gerard Way

STARF'S CHOICE: Ian Axel - This Is The New Year

DOLAN'S CHOICE: Gerard Way - Hesitant Alien

OH how the time has passed! You may have thought the finale wasn't coming since we missed a week... But that was a ploy! Just a clever ruse to build the suspense and the anticipation leading up to the SEASON THREE FINALE! Yaaay! Wooo! Actually there's a real reason we missed a week, and it's an unfortunate and boring one: Crazy sickness! You'll hear all about how pathogens managed to plague us and force us out of proper life for a bit. And then we discuss why the world is a terrible place in general. But it's not all bleak and terrible here at the end of season three, we also discuss everyone's favorite food: pizza! So grab a drink and join us for a finale the only way we know how to do it: Meager and barely adequate! It's exactly what you'd expect, yet again, on Save Point Sunday!

Have you ever joined a cult?! Have you ever started a podcast!? Who hasn't! These are perfectly normal things, and here at Save Point Sunday we're always ready to discuss the little things in like like participating in an off-brand cult experience. We get corny and ponder mayonnaise, and then we fall head first into a barrel of super meta conversations! That's right, we're talking about podcasts this week. From the ones we love, to the follies and future of our very own, to our sponsor for the week: Lively And Opinionated! It's gonna get weird, but then again when doesn't it here on Save Point Sunday?!

We have a sponsor! A real life sponsor! Over at Healthy Lifestyle Podcast they are pretty much the opposite of what we do here at Save Point Sunday. We're more of the "drink rootbeer and eat Doritos" types, but we don't have to be! We're gonna learn all about how to be healthier this week. We're also discussing our hopes and dreams in regard to America's game - no, not Pocket Mortys - Powerball! Did one of us win and this is our farewell episode to the masses? Guess you'll have to tune in to find out. Finally we wrap up the episode with a very special segment that our loyal PHIL helped to create: Save Point Story Time! Join us for an episode jam-packed with outside content. It's just another week here at Save Point Sunday.

STARF'S CHOICE: Mr. Lif - I Phantom

The big question: What makes a concept album work?

Somehow we've done 62 episodes prior to this one and never really gotten into the crazy details of when Save Point Sunday all lived together under the same roof! Join us this week as we discuss the legend of the living situation known only as Derpy House, a strange and wonderful time in our lives. We've been overdue for an ultra long episode, so we've jam-packed this with ridiculous conversations, as well as so many stories about roommates! Are we a huge tree? Because we're throwing shade this week on Save Point Sunday!

It's time for everyone's favorite yearly topic of discussion, that's right: We're talking lawnmowers! We'll discuss the various ways to start them up, and from there on out it's a slippery slope down a waterslide of conversational nonsense. From Wisconsin to McDonalds and everywhere in between, we're leaving no subject safe from our ridiculous words! Then we finally get into the boring realization that we should probably recap 2015. What are your new year's resolutions? We'll tell you why we don't care! 2015 was something of a turd, but Save Point Sunday shines through, and will continue to burn bright into this exciting new era called 2016. It's nothing but excitement looking forward at Save Point Sunday!

It's about to get weird as the cast of Save Point Sunday go on yet another News Cruise! This time we tackle the heavy topics, and get into a good old light hearted discussion on racism. Then we delve into the serious topics: the weird and rumored "Dreamcast 2," what does it mean? Why does it matter? Should anyone care? These are questions we probably should have asked on the podcast! Witness us make bad jokes, discuss Undertale and Rocket League, and even hear Colton switch off into crazy mode all in the same hour and a half! It's a crazy world we live in, which is very evident this week on Save Point Sunday!
