The Complete Disaster Podcast

(Part 3)

Complaining about kids never wanting to talk on the phone is out. The newest complaint is robots always wanting to talk on the phone. You'd think a doctor would want to hear from their patient directly. You'd also think you'd go see Paul Mecurio at the House of Comedy this Friday and Saturday. No robots involved.

DWTS had some drama the other day involving a lift. Or was it a lift? Depends on which definition you use. Choose the right one, because you might end up getting the Fresh Prince treatment. And if none of this makes any sense to you at all, you're far from alone.

• Carrie Ann Inaba claims Jenna Johnson got lifted, and Val Chmerkovskiy goes nuts. Did I get all those names right?
• You Can See Everything is making beaucoup bucks
• Kristyn's swag haul from her Margo Embargo
• Ice cream

The Disney Worlds Collide tour came to town. Tweens and their mothers rejoiced. For everyone else, there's foot-related content online. And by "everyone else" I mean hopefully an extremely small number of people.

Tim, famous for being Mary Mack's husband, moved up north because Facebook was too confusing. Or something like that, anyway. Why is he all the way back down here? Because he's at Acme, naturally. And you should be grateful, because after all, he's the funniest person in Minnesota. He's certified and everything.

Hot off the tails of the Mortal Kombat movie revival, here comes Street Fighter. Is it as good? After all, they're both just movies about people beating each other up, right? And speaking of combat, Crystal Lake is here too, to tell us the story of what happened between the beginning of Friday the 13th and the end of it. Or whatever. You know what I mean.

Topics:

Street Fighter

Crystal Lake

Extreme gore

Some people get mad when they drink. Some get sad. Some get happy. But we all get sad when we watch documentaries, because every documentary these days is a downer. We're going to guess that the latest crop is no exception. Maybe not the Norm Macdonald one. But even that's not a sure thing.

Topics:

Alcohol

Relationships in the entertainment industry

Streaming prices

Norm Macdonald documentary

Elizabeth Holmes documentary

Elon Musk documentary

There's a woman running for something or other in some place. Her interview has taken the internet by storm. You'll see why here. There's also a car taking the internet by storm but in a different way. That is to say, it's cool rather than sad and a little scary. Okay, it's still a little scary.

Topics:

Jaime West interview

Tesla flying Roadster

Meta smart glasses recording by themselves

Doug Loon is the CEO of the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, at least for the next two and a half months. He also brings us said chamber's latest thing: the Coolest Thing Made in Minnesota, in which 64 things made in Minnesota compete to be voted the coolest. Did you know that all sorts of things were made and/or invented here? Not a lot of people do.

He also pops in on the Minnesota Business Podcast, a podcast about...well, what do you think it's about? Find it here: https://www.mnchamber.com/minnesota-business-podcast-your-source-business-and-public-affairs-news

Last time we had Christine on, we only got a bit of time with her. Enough for her to talk about Walk Beside Me, a book that's not about Christine, but also is. Since then, that book has become a movie called Hello Beautiful. It's in theaters now, and we're always talking about how you should go to the theater.

There are some new things out. Keeping with tradition, they're kind of downers. The first is Jimmy, a movie about Jimmy Stewart and how being drafted into WW2 messed him up. Then there's In the Shadow of Eight, a book written by one of the "eight" in Jon & Kate Plus Eight. You can imagine how that one goes. Then we talk about MySpace for a while, because you gotta have a bit of fun.

Topics:

Jimmy Stewart documentary

In the Shadow of Eight by Collin Gosselin
