For the 100TH EPISODE of Shock And Autism, Dillon & Daniel attemp  to answer the age old question: what is the greatest dinosaur! First, they discuss what they learned about dinosaurs on Curiosity Stream. Then, they review & examine listener-submitted dinosaurs & how awesome they are. Lastly, they engage in an epic & serious debate between the T-Rex & the Velociraptor whilst also intermittently reflecting on 100 episodes here & there; enjoy.

It's America's birthday which means it's also Daniel's birthday! In honor of one of those aforementione  things, Dillon & Daniel discuss whether or not Team America: World Police (the puppet movie by the South Park guys) holds up and, if so, in what ways. JK Rowling & Godzilla also come up; it makes more sense in context but no guarantees that it makes significantly more sense.

What does make sense, though, is for you to follow Shock And Autism everywhere (and wish Daniel a happy birthday):

To close out Pride Month, Dillon and Daniel discuss movies that have gay *vibes* or energy or whateverthehell. Is the movie intentionally homoerotic? It counts. Unintentionally homoerotic? DEFINITELY counts. Campy nonsense? Yep! Allegory for the trans experience? Absolutely (that one rather gives away what their  final pick is, IYKYK). Enjoy.

So the Mamma Mia Movies are just the worst, right? WRONG! They're campy & girly, definitely a "girls, gays, and theys" type of energy, but that doesn't necessarily make something bad. The Nostalgia Critic definitely thought the 1st one was bad, but there's only about 10,000 examples of him overstating a movie's flaws; so, with all of that in the background, Dillon and Daniel thought it appropriate to watch for themselves & see if these movies really were that bad. Spoiler: they aren't (officially up to 10,001 now). But are they "good" actually? Listen & find out!

On this week's episode, Dillon and Daniel share some of their favorite LGBT artists. They are joined some ways in by Comrade Ivan, who knows cooler music than them & who lends his greater expertise to highlight how various artist's gender/sexuality shape & inform their work. Who is Comrade Ivan you ask? Another made up character that's really just an excuse for Dillon and/or Daniel to do a silly voice? One of Daniel's friends that he has, once again, hoodwinked into coming on the show? Communist revolutionary? Listen & find out!

In honor of Pride Month, Dillon and Daniel rank the top 10 LGBTQ+ Pokemon. Their lists have rainbow Pokemon, FABULOUS Pokemon, Pokemon that are weird little guys, and Pokemon that go through incredible transformations; metaphors for days. Enjoy.

Y'all remember The Legend of Manbun Michael? (Episode 86 if you don't) Well, on this episode Dillon and Daniel are joined in studio by the real life inspiration for Manbun Michael, aka their friend Nick. Nick and Daniel met doing door-to-door sales a few years back & then reminisce about some of the wild stories from back in the day & some of the . . . interesting characters they worked with. Throughout, they are trying to teach Dillon the art of being a salesperson & make him engage in some mock pitches. Will Dillon become an expert in door-to-door sales by episode's end?

For week 4 of Celebrity Month, Dillon and Daniel discuss Ezra Miller and Jonathan Majors: what they've each been accused of, whether or not their alleged crimes are comparable, any double standards that might be at play, and ultimately whether or not they should be fired/recast or if their movies should be boycotted. Look, this is typically a more lighthearted podcast but sometimes life has to be momentarily serious; this is one of those times. Next week it'll be back to the wholesome fun y'all know & love, we promise.

Programing note: next week won't be a Tim Curry episode because we didn't have a full episode worth of material but fear not it will still be a fitting episode to end Celebrity Month with (and he does get a mention).

For episode 3 of celebrity month, Dillon and Daniel attempt to figure out why it is & how it came to be that Nic Cage occupies his particular status in film & pop culture. They then discuss/review The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent  (aka the movie where Nic Cage plays Nic Cage & hangs out with Pedro Pascal) in order to discover 1. if it's actually any good beyond its bonkers premise & 2. if it is the apotheosis of all this Nic Cage stuff that they discussed earlier.
