The Grawlix Podcast

Another live stream, another opportunity to REACT AT THE NEWS! Before we dive into that, though, we talk about what we’ve been watching. Primarily, I Am Not Okay With This. The whole G-trio binged through the Netflix superpowered coming-of-age series and you know what? We ARE okay with it.

On the news front. Oh boy. Drams! The movie industry and theater industry is in the middle of a very public spat and it’s time for the G-crew to pick sides. Plus, live-action Hercules, John Wick 4 concerns, and Disney goes all capitalist on face masks. Enjoy!

Originally streamed live April 30th, 2020 via Facebook Live and Twitch.

You ready for another Grawlix Nights!? Better be! This episode we discuss some recent viewing including our thoughts on Doctor Sleep, Annihilation, Ozark, and The Midnight Gospel.

We also REACT AT THE NEWS. Universal takes over the Lego license, Warner Bros assures us theaters are still a thing, and Quibi goes after a fan podcast. Plus, the man behind the gimp mask in Pulp Fiction, Randy is a bad friend, and more! Enjoy!

On this live episode we discuss Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn). Or was it Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey? Or just Birds of Prey?

This episode is also a CAGE MATCH!? As in Nicolas Cage, that is. If you were trapped on a desert island with one of Nic Cage’s film characters which one would it be and why? That’s what we asked ourselves and the chat.

Shout out to Moose of Moose’s Monster Mash and Bullspit with Moose for joining us this episode and to Matty D. of 60’s Reboot Podcast and Comics with my Kids for sending us a voice message. Enjoy!

Crack open that bag lunch and dig into some leftovers because Lunch Box Live is back! For this special bonus live episode we jumped back to our old lunch hour stomping grounds; Livecast by Castbox! On this livecast we chat with listeners about what we and they have been watching including Locke & Key and more.

Did we get derailed by callers looking for Netflix passwords and baragged with racially confusing spam? You know it! Enjoy!

Get ready to REACT AT THE NEWS! We’re back with another fun live episode. This week we had a great time talking TV & movie news as well as talking with the chat. You’ll hear some (spoiler free) Tiger King talk, Batman speculation, the re-introduction of Movie Homework, and more!

In fact, this live stream was so much fun it went double long so we’re splitting it up into two seperate episodes. This is the news segment and later we’ll publish the puzzle game list segment. Yep, LIST EPISODE!

Just because a literal global pandemic has turned the world upside doesn’t mean we can’t have some fun. In fact, when the majority of us are either responsibly practicing social distancing or in an actual lockdown situation it is more important than ever to not get bogged down by fear and anxiety. Or boredom.

This week we offer up some levity, a bit of seriousness, and a whole lot of recommendations on how we can fill our time as we remain homebound. LIST EPISODE! We run down our top picks of what’s streaming, what we’re watching, and what we’re excited about. Jasper even joins the show! Enjoy!

On a serious note, this is a scary and uncertain time. Fortunately, even with lockdowns and social distancing modern technology allows us to connect with others from the confines of our homes. Take advantage of free video conferencing and chat services if you are feeling lonely and need to talk to friends.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that this live stream is one of the only times all four of us have appeared on camera. Even through a webcam, face to face conversation can go a long way. This is one time in which we are all truly in this together.

We return with another live episode! The latest season of Doctor Who has just wrapped with Doctor Who Series 12 Episode 10: The Timeless Children and it was a BIG one. There are some strong opinions flying around Who fandom about it. Naturally, we’ve a few opinions on it ourselves.

If you’ve been listening to our weekly reviews of the show you may be able to guess how this is going to go. However, it may surprise you to know we actually liked the season finale! Don’t put that salt shaker away just yet, though, because we also hated it vehemently. What!?

Before we can React at the Who we’ve got to React at the News! This week’s news items include a Kids in the Hall revival, Taika Waititi signs with Netflix for TWO Charlie and the Chocolate Factory animated projects, the new Batmobile reveal, and more. Enjoy!

It’s the Grawlix Podcast’s 6th anniversary! Can you believe it? 6 years of comic book chat, Doctor Who complaints, TV talk, movie musings, and random banter. In other words, it’s all pizza.

To celebrate this milestone we decided to play a role-playing game! And the dungeon master is a ROBOT! Machine learning AI, actually.

In this episode, we have a blast playing through a game of AI Dungeon 2, a machine learning AI-driven role-playing game. Every game of AI Dungeon 2 plays out like an interactive story where each storyline is totally unique… and also wacky. Also, sometimes disturbing.

Is this just a strange tale of time-traveling podcasters, doppelgangers, and alien clones? Or is this the actual future and ultimate fate of The Grawlix Podcast as predicted by artificial intelligence? Yes! Enjoy!

Prepare to taste the back of our candy hand because the we’re back with another live episode. News topics include the first Candyman (2020) trailer, what a Nightmare on Elm Street cartoon might look like, the Matrix 4 blowing up San Francisco, and more!

We also discuss Doctor Who Series 12 Episode 9: Ascension of the Cybermen. As this season of Who nears its final episode the questions are piling up. Will we find out who Ruth really is? What’s the deal with this timeless child business? Will Ryan actually let THAT happen? Who knows! Enjoy.
