April 19, 2021 S1 E33: The Ewok Adventure
It all started with an exciting purchase on eBay of an old obscure (and hard to find) '80s movie VHS... Then a few days after it arrives Woody's brother shoots him a text that says "Hey man, have you checked this out on Disney+ yet??" followed by a picture of THE STAR WARS VINTAGE COLLECTION. Much to Woody's surprise Disney+ had made some of their hardest, obscure Star Wars content available to stream. This week we're of course talking about The Ewok Adventure ... a movie that both Tyler and Woody haven't seen, in at the very least, 30 years. We will take you on a journey of nostalgia as we take a deep dive into The Ewok Adventure (and why perhaps the sequel "Battle for Endor" is another example of the Mandela Effect). We go over some really interesting trivia and behind-the-scenes info on the movie, talk about why this Star Wars Vintage Collection was an excellent find, and, how it SAVED SPRING BREAK.
So join us as we go over some of our favorite memories - THANKS FOR LISTENING and as always... BE RAD

April 12, 2021 S1 E32: Time Capsule Rewind - Part 1
It's official - spring is here! Despite the allergies that come along with it, we're excited about the warmer weather and spending more time outdoors.
This week we have something special we put together we know our OG listeners and brand new listeners will enjoy.
One of our favorite segments we do on our show is called "Tales from the Time Capsule" which is where we present a fascinating story complete with captivating sound design, that will make you feel like you're right there in the thick of whatever drama is unfolding.
What we have come to realize is that: almost as soon as we publish the Time Capsule episode, we have discovered something new or interesting about that specific story or topic.
SO - we decided we wanted to revisit 2 of our favorite Tales and go over some of the new things we've uncovered, discovered, or talked with other listeners about since we've published them.
So join us as we go over some of our favorite stories to date - The Man from Taured, and of course, Sam The Sandown Ghost Clown.
THANKS FOR LISTENING
and as always... BE RAD

April 05, 2021 S1 E31: Everyday Chemistry & The Snyder Cut
This week Tyler FINALLY pulls off being able to completely surprise Woody with a story without even so much as the slightest hint.
Not only is this a miracle in and of itself (because of how TERRIBLE Tyler is typically with spoilers) but, turns out it's a pretty fascinating story that Woody (a HUGE Beatles fan) has never heard about...
We dive into the unknown, never-before-released Beatles album EVERYDAY CHEMISTRY - well, at least never-before-released in our dimension.
We'll go into the origins of this strange record, how it was "discovered" by a man that goes by JAMES RICHARDS, and the interdimensional traveling man named JONAS who allegedly comes from a dimension where The Beatles never broke up + are still touring regularly.
Before we get into this strange tale together - Woody and Tyler go over what they thought about the Snyder Cut of the Justice League.
Why does the Snyder Cut exist anyway?
Is it worth sitting through 4 hours of the Synder cut?
What does the existence of the Snyder cut mean for all of us comic fans?

Get these questions answered and more on this week's episode!
Thank you for listening and BE RAD.

March 29, 2021 S1 E30: The Knights of the Rad Table
This week we discuss the greatest game ever invented that you can play with a group of people.
As a special treat we’ve invited our friends and adventuring companions Luke Pilgrim and Ellis Treece (Sozo Bear Films) from our Dungeons and Dragons group...to share the epic, the hilarious, the tragic, and the legendary moments from our mini campaign that we completed a few weeks ago.

Even if you’ve never played Dungeons and Dragons or have little to no interest in the game - WE KNOW you’re going to love this episode and by the end...might even be thinking about joining a campaign of your own.
So, come laugh along with us as we describe how a grumpy old dwarf cleric, a fragile but powerful bladesinger elf, and an extremely strong but hardly intelligent half-orc barbarian became unlikely heroes.

Dungeons & Dragons is a fantasy tabletop role-playing game originally designed by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson. It was first published in 1974 by Tactical Studies Rules, Inc. It has been published by Wizards of the Coast since 1997.
The core of D&D is storytelling. You and your friends tell a story together, guiding your heroes through quests for treasure, battles with deadly foes, daring rescues, courtly intrigue, and much more.

Thank you for listening and as always BE RAD!

March 22, 2021 S1 E29: The John Titor / Time Traveller Episode
A second Civil War splinters America into five factions, leaving the new capital based in Omaha.
World War III breaks out in 2015, starting with Russia and the U.S. trading nukes and ending with three billion dead.
Then, to top it all off, a computer bug delivers where Y2K sputtered, destroying our world as we know it.
⚠️ 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗜𝗦 𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗣𝗟𝗔𝗡𝗘𝗧𝗦 𝗕𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗞 𝗙𝗨𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘 ⚠️
That is unless an audacious time-traveling soldier from 2036 can successfully traverse the space-time continuum to change the course of future history.

In 1998, that person sent 2 faxes to Art Bell - then host of Coast to Coast AM describing time travel and the dire future that was in store for us all.
Then again in late 2000 that person signed on to the internet and gave us his name: 𝙹𝚘𝚑𝚗 𝚃𝚒𝚝𝚘𝚛
Join us this week as we dive into the story of one of the most captivating tales of time travel we have ever heard!
Thank you for listening and as always: BE RAD!

March 15, 2021 S1 E28: WandaVision Finale, Knee Surgery, & Good Manners
How could we not talk about the WandaVision finale? I mean...come on. As Woody preps for knee surgery he and Tyler talk about what they liked and didn't like about Marvel's first Disney+ series.
What do they think about what this says about the future series to come? Who ended up being their favorite characters?
How will this show tie into the others?
You'll have to listen to find out.
Oh and yes, knee surgery...but, before Woody's zonked out on pain meds and enjoying recovery... he and Tyler also end up talking about everything from Street Fighter II, Captain Marvel, Pinball, how to know if you're the oldest at a birthday party, Scott Pilgrim vs The World, and of course Good Manners.

If you're a fan of WandaVision or the Marvel cinematic universe then you'll love this episode!
Thank you for listening and as always BE RAD!

March 08, 2021 S1 E27: The Stanford Abduction Episode
In January 1976 three Kentucky women, after a celebratory birthday dinner at one of their favorite restaurants, experienced something strange, terrifying, and incredibly intriguing.
On the ride home is when their enjoyable girl's night out took a frightening turn.
A large object the size of a football field appeared across both lanes of the road in front of them, disappeared and then re-appearing behind them seemingly took control of the ‘67 Chevy Nova they were driving.
Despite their attempts to regain control of the car, it reached speeds over 80mph, the dark night’s landscape flying by their window...and then…
- POOF -
The next thing they knew they were on the outskirts of a small Kentucky town with little to no memory of the 8 miles they had covered to get there -or- the 90 minutes that had surprisingly past.
This is their story, of all that happened during those lost 90 minutes and what is one of the most terrifying abduction stories WOODY and TYLER have ever heard.

March 01, 2021 S1 E26: The Mega Mandela Effect Episode
This week TYLER tricks WOODY into finally talking about The Mandela Effect.
Have you ever remembered something from your childhood - only to later find that it is now completely different?
Jif peanut butter for example...didn’t it used to be called “Jiffy”?!?
Symptoms of the Mandela effect include:
* remembering something as slightly different in wording or appearance as it originally was
* a large number of people recounting the same way of remembering

Is this bizarre phenomenon the result of “collective false memories”, “confabulation”, or is the Mandela effect evidence of a rift in the space/time continuum??
Is it perhaps the result of experiments on particles and matter happening as we speak? Find out what our hosts think about this intriguing phenomenon on this weeks episode!
Thank you for listening and as always BE RAD!

February 22, 2021 S1 E25: The Sword & The Sorcerer VS Red Sonja
This week we take on the seemingly impossible to decide which movie is greater...The Sword and the Sorcerer or Red Sonja.
Get ready for a three-bladed sword, a lizard-skinned sorcerer, a wall of hellish faces, Brigitte Nielsen with a STRONG '80s mullet, Conan who's not really Conan, and Ernie Reyes Jr.
In the second fantasy face-off episode, our hosts WOODY BROWN & TYLER BENCE face the difficult task of deciding who will move on to the next round and who will lay defeated in the arena of THE GREATEST '80S FANTASY MOVIES.
So...get out your tankard of ale, sharpen your long swords, and let's get to it. I hope you have your vcr ready to pop in that beautiful vhs tape.

February 15, 2021 S1 E24: The Weird Side of Rock & Roll
Conspiracy theories, myths, and legends have existed in rock & roll even long before the music has existed. From stories of musicians trading their souls in for immeasurable talent, or being replaced by look-alikes after fatal accidents, or even faking their own deaths to disappear into anonymity…This week WOODY BROWN & TYLER BENCE cover the weird side of rock & roll.
