Two True Freaks

Join Hope Mullinax as Chris Honeywell drags her into watching THE STAR WARS HOLIDAY SPECIAL for the first time to close out the festive month of December. Yes, Chris has committed many a sadistic act in this show, but this might be the TOPPER! Watch along in horror as Hope sees this SLOW MOTION SPACE-TRAIN WRECK unspools in REAL TIME!There will be - SPACE MAUDE AND DRINKY HEAD, SPACE NORTON, HARRISON FORD QUESTIONING HIS CAREER PATH, LUSTEROUS LUKE HAIR, 10 SECONDS OF DARTH VADER'S HEAD, IS MALLA SNOKE?, IS HARVEY KORMAN SNOKE? IS GEORGE LUCAS SNOKE? IS THE STAR WARS HOLIDAY SPECIAL ITSELF SNOKE? You're not gonna find out here!

In this week's ball-shadowing episode, Magnus once again fills the time with The Shadow Strikes.

If it sounds like His Excellency was desperate to find something to talk about this week because It's All About Image couldn't be finished off properly, that would be because His Excellency was desperate to find something to talk about this week because It's All About Image couldn't be finished off properly.

And as it happens, Magnus is a fan of the Shadow in general and The Shadow Strikes in particular, and has been for quite some time now. So what better way to get an episode out for this week than talking about The Shadow Strikes #03?

The answer to that is there *IS NO BETTER WAY*. And if you think there is, you're welcome to keep your incorrect opinion to yourself.

For those of you determined to soil the Internet by sharing click-bait, "Margot thought she was safe with Brother Gregor but then THIS happened!"

Due to the deluge of ass-kickery this week, unfortunately there just wasn't time for listener feedback this week. But don't cry about it because there's more coming in the future!

Patience! Feedback will be addressed in just a few weeks. As a matter of fact, several upcoming episodes will feature feedback sections.

This would be an opportune time to send in any feedback you may have as the vault could get totally cleared out of feedback in the relatively near future. So get to writing!

In the meantime, though, don't let the lack of feedback this time get you down! You can still offer your feeble effort at tribute! You humble serfs are always welcome to kiss your benevolent leader's ring. Corrupt DiManzocorp interns are ready, willing, able and eager to accept your bribe to present your meager missives to your wise emperor. The email address to use is [email protected] as the other seems to be having technical problems.

In an another sublime act of truly unprecedented charity, your emperor permits you lowly rabble to suggest topics for a future episode. Thus, petitions may be sent to [email protected] for DiManzocorp interns to review, whereupon your leader might consider thinking about the possibility of potentially discussing whatever you have in mind some day. And that's a promise!

Chris and Scott bring you recaps of two important episodes in the first season of Agents of SHIELD and The Flash this week! In episode eleven of AOS, we reach the mid-point of the season and Marvel isn't making us wait for answers as we finally get to see what happened right after The Avengers movie when Loki turned Coulson into a Phil-Kabob. We also get to see the team all kick butt with their various areas of expertise and Victoria Hand, Raina and the recently, dearly departed, Ron Glass make appearances which never goes amiss. Over in Central City in episode six, Barry fights a meta-bully from his past called not-Collosus until Cisco gets around to naming him. Joe and Wells break up and then make up and Super Blogger Iris finally gets everyone to stop calling Barry "The Streak" (Don't look Ethel!) and the Flash is born! Also, Scott and Chris talk "Spider-Man: Homecoming" as they were hopelessly geeked out by the trailer that was released right before this recording and we get another listener email! Bingestorm to the Lazy Boy!

Whats this? Two 3rd Degree Byrne episodes in the Same Month? Its a Christmas miracle! And it is a stunner.

In our last episode of the year and the last episode of our 50 years of Star Trek celebration, we bring to you the first issue of “Assignment Earth”. Thats right. John Byrne wrote and drew a mini-series based on the (Mis-) Adventures of Gary Seven and Roberta Lincoln. TIM ELLIOTT and BRIAN HUGHES take you along for the ride as Gary and Roberta try, once again to save the world from NUCLEAR DESTRUCTION!

We had a lot of fun with this one as we discuss many things:

Terri Garr

Robert Lansings eyebrows

Terri Garr

Isis the cat (and when she ISNT the cat).

Terri Garr

Barbara Babcock

Science Fiction naming conventions and Tims psycho-somatic need to tie everything to Dr. Who.

Terri Garr

All that and a plea for iTunes reviews too.

We here at 3rd Degree Byrne would like to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, a wonderful Festivus and a shiny New Year!

Take care, dont text and drive or drink and drive. Dont drink and text and certainly dont drink and bake, or Arnold Schwarzenegger will come after you. Well thats what I heard.

Christmas is the time for miracles! At least that's what Hans Gruber says. It's time for a look at the most sentimental Christmas movie of all time: Die Hard! Please join Paul and Chris Tyler as they take a look at this yuletide favorite.

Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukkah! Joyful Kwanzaa! And a Festvus for the Rest of us! Join Paul, Scott and Dr. Bill as they talk Christmas books and give yet another glimpse into what the Get off my Lawncast will be like! It's like a Festivus miracle as they bring out the aluminum pole and air the grievances!! Happy Holidays everyone!!

"Yes, Virginia, there IS a Santa Claus!"

On this episode of Bots. Bugs, and Babes, my father (Al Jaconetti) and I deliver our Christmas Special as we take a one-horse open sleigh to 2005 and look at Santa's Slay! We will discuss this holiday classic, which stars Bill Goldberg as Santa and an opening scene that needs to be seen to be believed. We will also cover many different aspects of the movie, as this is a different Hell beast all its own. Happy Holidays to all and remember...... WHO's NEXT!

Once more into the fray this holiday season, as it's Power Rangers and Earth Destruction Directive, which are as much a part of the season as cookies and milk! When King Mondo uses his Bias Blaster to make the Rangers look down on their fellow man, will the Holiday Festival be ruined? Will Bulk and Skull solve the case of the missing fruitcakes? Will the PR nerds heads' survive the retroactive continuity nightmares? All this and more will be answered, so grab a steaming mug of you Your Favorite Holiday Beverage and download this Christmas Miracle for your ears!

The Christmas hits keep on coming on TTF as Micheal and Andrew deliver their annual seasonal spectacular. The duo pull out the PEACE ON EARTH treasury edition by Paul Dini and Alex Ross and things get a lot deeper than Andrew planned. It's all OK though as it ends with a punk Christmas Classic. Merry Christmas Everybody!

HAPPY GHOULETIDE WISHES from the VAULT CREW - Them Jaconetti Boys (Luke and Jason) and Christmas Tyler and Honeywell! In a special HOLIDAY THEMED EPISODE they bring you 2015's KRAMPUS, a nasty little Yuletide LUMP OF COAL for people who like their X-Mas movies with a HAPPY ENDING! NO HAPPY ENDING FOR YOU! IT'S A NOT-SO-WONDERFUL AFTERLIFE!!!!!
