String Cheese Theory

Craving more of the '80's anime Legend of the Galactic Heroes? You are in good company. Join us as we talk through some of the weird, touching, hardcore space action and attempt once again to figure out what the hell Jeffrey's clues are leading to.

Jeffrey and Danielle fly solo (dual?) this week and discuss the Netflix movie "Nimona." We've got everything: punky teenagers, physical transfiguration, possible love child coverups. This one goes all the way to the TOP.

The first episode of our game of "Clue" concerning the badass '80's anime, Legend of the Galactic Heroes. This show has everything: blondes, brunettes, violence, maybe conjoined twins?

We've been away for a while, we know. We're sorry. Today we are introducing a bit of a different spin-off where Jeffrey is setting up a game where Danielle and Mike guess the genre(...?) of an '80's anime. It sounds weird to us too but just roll with it.

From Grandpa Joe’s coke nail to Gene Wilder’s intentionally unintentional slaughter of spoiled children, the 1971 rendition of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a pillar of American cinema. 

Introducing a new episode type of String Cheese Theory (not replacing the usual episodes), we take the source content a bit more seriously and discuss it's points more like how the artists behind it likely intended. Don't worry, it's still funny, or at least the same level of funny we usually are.

What Remains of Edith Finch, a short, narrative focused video game from 2017, is a lovely work with an impactful story we couldn't help but think about for months after playing it. 

Join us as we discuss the lives (and untimely deaths) of the Finch's and appreciate the passion that clearly went into the creation of this game. Learn what Edie's final story might mean, what happened to Barbara, and whether Bigfoot was pulling the strings all along.

What’s not to love about a giant metal robot with weapons coming out of every orifice? 

There’s Borgus. There’s Botts. There’s Bean. I mean Bunson. No, Bogus. Mr. Bean. Farmer Bean?
Okay, we admit we 100% could not remember the farmers’ correct names. Don’t let that stop you from listening to our welcome-back episode on Wes Anderson’s adorable stop motion movie, Fantasic Mr. Fox. 

This charming Disney channel original turned cult classic (and it’s more recent “sequel”…) told us a tale of witches with strong family values, kids that have never gotten laid, and the original smart book. Join the string cheese theorists as they unpack the story of Hocus Pocus in this Halloween-y episode.
