Superweird: A Quest for the Absurd in Children's Television with Ben & Dexter episodes
- Episode 44: The Gospel Bill Show "Don't Trust in Riches"
Yee haw! The lads take a trip to the old west town of Dry Gulch for an episode of The Gospel Bill Show. How did they get here? What does the ostrich teach us? Is that question too out of context? These answers and more!
1 hr 31 min - Episode 43: Magic Al and the Mind Factory "Monsters Be Gone"
Our Halloween episode came a little late and limped to the barn. The lads watch a long forgotten VHS cassette from the year 2000. They tackle this media completely blind and with utter confusion.
Also, Mandy Moore!?1 hr 21 min - Episode 42: Superbook s1e16 "The Patience of Job"
Ben and Dex go back to the well of misguided morality called Superbook to learn the story of Job. God and Satan have a little pow wow and a farmer loses everything to teach a lesson to... someone.
1 hr 19 min - Episode 41: Thought, Word, and Deed (1994)
Ben and Dexter delve into YouTube’s The Parlor channel of strange and obscure VHS media, finding Thought, Word, and Deed - a children’s cautionary tale in being honest. They’re fascinated with the cheap props, the awful dialog, and the kookiness of Carol Kane.
1 hr 9 min - Episode 40: Kids Praise! 5 - Psalty's Camping Adventure
Ben and Dexter celebrate their 40th episode by remembering the life of the late Norm MacDonald…by doing the worst impressions imaginable. Also, they take you camping with a giant, blue book that sings to kids about Jesus and the alphabet. You know, A, B, C…the others.
1 hr 28 min - Episode 39: Cool Cat Saves the Kids / Exorcism at 60,000 Feet
Dexter and Ben review what they consider the worst piece of children’s media they’ve ever come across, and that’s saying something. From bullying to bad band names, gun safety to gore, the discussion moves from one bad movie to another.
1 hr 20 min - Episode 38: Adventures in Odyssey #56 "By Faith, Noah"
In this episode, the fellows discuss faith, Noah, the Department of Health, unions, and taking your dirty dishes to the kitchen.
1 hr 18 min - Episode 37: Adventures in Odyssey #123 “Castles and Cauldrons, Part 2”
Ben and Dexter contribute their review of Castles & Cauldrons with part 2 of the Adventures in Odyssey episode of the same name. They discuss mental health issues, Whit’s force powers, and whether playing games can make you crazy.
1 hr 7 min - Episode 36: Adventures in Odyssey #122 “Castles and Cauldrons, Part 1”
It's time to play a game. And it can't be stressed enough that this is just a game. In this episode of Adventures in Odyssey, Focus on the Family display a complete misunderstanding of Role Playing Games and undiagnosed mental disorders.
