On this week's podcast, Pete and Bill discuss the value of heliotheism, ponder the workings of faith and spirituality, muse about the historical Jesus and generally mull the whole "higher power" thing and why being nice is so difficult.

There was no podcast last week because Bill got married! Pete and Bill talk about an old discovery from the life archives that is going to be a big Scientific Pod event in the near future and recap the wedding festivities and resulting Disneyland trip. How many corndogs did we eat, anyway?

Starting on New Year's Day, Pete watched every episode of Dawson's Creek, in a row, with minimal breaks or sleep. It was a Herculean task and a tremendous feat. Now he sits down with Bill to relive his journey, talk about the highs and lows, the ins and outs and the Pacey and Joey of it all.

What music did you like this year? Besides Tay-Tay, we mean. Come join Pete and Bill as they run down their favorite albums of the year and give YOU all a taste of some of the tracks that most tickled their respective fancies the entire year round. That's a lot of tickling!

Pete and Bill went to two theme parks on consecutive days. Herein, they quibble about Universal Studios Hollywood, delight in discussing Disneyland, reminisce about a chill-ass dog and a confused deer, and quit their tutoring jobs to join a friend gang.

In January, Pete will watch every single episode of Dawson's Creek without stopping. It's going to be 90-plus hours of Creeky goodness. Maybe. Pete and Bill discuss the logistics of this, the whys and wherefores, answer some of your questions, ramble a bit because they're both loopy and invite you to send us some suggestions on what to call the dang thing.

There's a new Star Wars trailer! There's a full trailer for Jurassic World! Have you seen this? Have you heard about this? Well, Pete and Bill have seen and heard about it and would now like to talk about it! They discuss their expectations and hesitations, as well as discuss the concept of cover movies. Because there should be much more of them. This and a lot more, on this post-Turkey Day glut of a podcast!

On today's episode of the podcast, Pete and Bill discuss "MasterChef Junior," children on cooking competition shows, which cooking show hosts (besides Guy Fieri) they enjoy, whether you should eat blood (no), which cooks or shows they've learned the most from, how big is too big an oyster to eat and much, much more.

On today's podcast, Bill is back on that World of Warcraft horse. He and Pete talk about their recommendations for the week, have a bit of an extended examination on what makes video games interesting or appealing (at least to Bill), ponder a couple of very interesting icebreaker questions and clear the air about Glenn Danzig's live singing voice. Important stuff all around.

On this special HOLIDAY-THEMED-TYPE episode, Peter and Bill discuss All Hallow's Eve, including costumes of the present and past, favorite costumes, Garfield telling you not to open weird candy, why people keep giving Charlie Brown rocks and whether Bill is or isn't Guy Fieri.
