Unlisted Wall

We go in, find the President, bring him out in twenty-four hours, and we're free men. We're taking the liberty of bending the rules this week by examining the looks-like-post-apocalypse but technically dystopian Escape From New York, where John Carpenter did us all the 'solid' of giving Kurt Russell's film career the launchpad it needed. Ben flew the Gullfire over Leningrad, he knows how to get in quiet; Brain swears to God, he thought Charles was dead, like everybody else.

The search for a different kind of wasteland has delivered us into the hands of Kevin Costner's back to back post-apocalypse disasters. Ben knows the code - two Drifters meet, something needs to be exchanged; nothing's free in Waterworld. Charles was an aerospace engineer. He helped design the Galileo space station. He dreams it's orbiting Earth forever, with a dozen human skeletons all grinning at each other.

Cursed be the ground for our sake. Both Ben and Charles it shall bring forth for us. For out of the studio were we taken, for the podcasters we are...and to the studio we shall return. Denzel Washington takes his turn as our apocalyptic shepherd as we walk out West. What Ben likes about no soap, is that he can smell hijackers a mile off; Charles grew up with that book, he knows its power, if you make him choose he'll kill you and take it.

Our name is Unlisted Wall. Our world is fire and blood. Once, we were podcasters. Microphone warriors searching for a righteous cause. We finish out our time with Max in 2015's Fury Road before finding another guide to take us through the wastelands. Ben is your redeemer; it is by his hand that you shall rise from the ashes of this world(as long as you don't become addicted to water). Charles was awaited in Valhalla; they were calling his name....he should be walking with the Immortan or feasting with the heroes of our time.

Well ain't we a pair, raggedy men. Though we'd love to dwell on the remainder of Road Warrior, we eventually have to just walk away and plot a course Beyond Thunderdome. Right now we've got two podcasters with a gut full of fear; ladies and gentlemen, dyin' time's here! Ben knows the law: two men enter, one man leaves. But he says that Charles has broken the law. Right or wrong, they had a deal. And the law says: bust a deal and face the wheel! Charles is betting on Gulag.

Greetings from Unlisted Wall! The Lords Unlisted....The Warriors of Podcasting...The Ayatollers of Rock and Rollers! Moving from laughter to slaughter, we begin a run of post-apocalyptic cinema with the original Mad Max and partial discussion of the follow up Mad Max 2(The Road Warrior in the United States). It's Ben's snake, he trained it, he gets to eat it. He's got a recipe for snake. Two days ago Charles saw a vehicle that would haul that tanker; you want to get out of here, you talk to him.

Ben and Charles started out as foe. But after that courageous act that Ben showed against the one they call Derek, maybe someday they could become friends. Friends who ride majestic, translucent steeds, shooting flaming arrows across the bridge of Hemdale.

The comedy tour concludes as Will Ferrell and John Reilly lay waste to each other and their parents' marriage. Ben saw Charles die, but he was faking, he used ninja focus to slow his heart rate down; later Ben must use his angelic voice(like Fergie mixed with Jesus)to help Charles onstage and save the Catalina Wine Mixer.

Leslie Nielsen returns, but not to protect us, this time he cuts off our hands and feet, gouges out our eyes and impales us on iron spikes! But, we have it coming. Professor Ben Helsing of London University is a doctor of rare diseases as well as theology and philosophy(and gynaecology); he prescribes for Charles a straitjacket and an enema. Wait, an enema first, then a straitjacket!

Our comedy tour takes a pit stop to relax at the local Alley with this touching autobiographical drama. Ben is furious at Charles for losing to a club player, he's supposed to be carrying a 270 average; Charles isn't sure fifteen frames is legal, but it's fun though, isn't it?

'Tis the season for romantic love, although that term may not mean what you think it means. The timeless classic fairy tale leads us to many tangents and the prescience of mask-wearing. Ben puts down his rock and Charles puts down his sword, and they try to kill each other like civilized people.
