So the guy that they based the Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies on totally escaped and wound up running a vegan bakery in Seattle. My cousin told me. This other time that podcast The Bricked Pit talked about movies that were 'based on true events' and how a lot of times that's just a load of bunk. You can listen to them talk about films like Captain Phillips, A Midnight Clear, The Town That Dreaded Sundown, Psycho, Black Hawk Down, M, and Into the Wild among others. Plus, Adam announces the contest winners.

It's Must Listen Thursday as The Bricked Pit returns as a mid-season replacement. Josh plans to run away after only hearing part of a conversation that Adam and Jason have about sitcoms. The guys discuss the evolution of the situation comedy and why it has lasted throughout television. Tune in for discussions on I Love Lucy, Frasier, The Munsters, Friends, The Big Bang Theory, Better Off Ted, Newhart, Red Dwarf, and many others. Check your local listings for time and availability. 

We're going back to when parenting was filling your bowl with Mr. T cereal and plopping you in front of the TV for a few hours while they sat at the kitchen table staring off into the void smoking Marlboros. You're watching the cartoon based off a franchise about the sexual exploits of police officers, playing with your toys of a murderous cyborg, and wearing your pajamas of a mentally unstable war veteran. In the 1980's and into the 90's, companies weren't going to leave merchandizing money on the table and were willing to sell almost anything and everything to kids. Even the IPs that weren't originally made for them. Jason, Adam, and Josh talk about those properties that crossed the line from grown-up entertainment to toy aisle and animated territories. The Bricked Pit's discussion includes Ghostbusters, Terminators, Predators (the alien kind), Toxic Avengers, Robocops, and Rambos. Let us know of any more that come to your mind because we know that we didn't get them all.

The guys in the Pit are back in full swing after being banned by a Tennessee school board. This time Josh, Jason, and Adam discuss the Hays Code that lasted for three decades in the US. Listen as the guys discuss what brought about the Code, how movie productions reacted to it, what led to its demise, and their general jackassery.

2022 is doing its absolute best to out jerk 2020 & 2021. When Josh gets hit with COVID, Adam and Jason decide to have a little conversation with you, the listeners. We're laying out our plans for 2022 and asking for you to give us a hand in making the Bricked Pit a better podcast. They also give some recommendations from their recent viewing habit.
