SlurpToast

Oh No, Anaphylaxis!

The first annual SlurpToast Holiday Episode revolves, mostly, around baseball.

That makes sense, right?

We also talk about:

• Failing at Candy Captcha
• Walter Simonson's take of Orion
• The state of our beards
• Spank Frank
• Orson Randall aka Iron Fist

There is, however, no Moon Knight chat this time out.  That will return in 2021.

Here are the baseball books mentioned in the podcast

• Moneyball
• The Extra 2%
• Feeding the Monster
• Astroball

They Call It Porky Pigging

This one took an early turn when Bruce, while drinking a Coors Banquet, suggested they cast a remake of Smokey and the Bandit.  So they did...and it was glorious.

Other topics discussed:

• Moon Knight
• Work Issues
• Home Repair
• Kid Rock (too many times it seems)
• Giant Shuttlecocks

All that and more on Episode 11.

Episode 10 - The Search for Sponsors

The podcast hits double digits with it's very first holiday episode.  Of course, this being SlurpToast, we completely forget to discuss Thanksgiving.

We open the show with a shout out to the recently shuttered GonzoGeek.com.  We had a good run and we talk about some of our favorite moments as part of the staff.

Instead, we talk about:

• Teremana Tequila
• Covid-19
• Moon Knight (of course)
• Freight Train Rabbit Killer
• Visigoth

Bruce issues an apology to Ace Atkins followed by a long glowing review of his Quinn Colson series.

Happy Thanksgiving and remember, turkeys can't fly.

He Brought a Shank to a Podcast

Now that Stephe is back from vacation and the election is over, the boys return to the mic with another installment of Moon Knight Chat as well as the promised discussion of the two Jacks:  Repairman and Kirby.  Things take a weird turn when Stephe brings up KCMO politician Steve West and his contention that there is a direct correlation between porn and cannibalistic murder leading to the creation of the Porn-Gacy scale.  Enjoy!

Patrick Mahomes...Super Spreader

Bruce and Stephe are back with a conversation that starts off with a discussion of a Covid outbreak at Stephe's office and then turns to:

• The joys of home ownership
• James Lee Burke's new book "A Private Cathedral"
• The laconic joy of the true South Louisiana accident.

They also tease next week's episode.  Check it out!

Rock God of Vengeance

This week, despite some connectivity issues, the boys discuss the death of Gen X icon and rock legend, Eddie Van Halen.  They also spend some time discussing Marvel's Moon Knight, the viability of Keanu Reeves playing said character and who they would like to see cast in the upcoming Disney+ Moon Knight series.

Mouths Are Stupid

This week Bruce and Stephe talk about the Emmys, Thai prison movies, modern dentistry, drinking tequila and Wild Turkey (at different times) and how stupid teeth are.

It'll make sense.

We think.

Death Knell of the Xevoz

Episode 5 finds the boys getting more comfortable working without notes.  The ramble is real, but they ramble on.

This week Bruce and Stephe touch on the overlooked Xevoz toy line, Cobra Kai, The New Mutants, their SDCC buddy Mojo el Diablo, the Green Hornet and Batman '66.

I'm sure there's other stuff, but that'll get you started.

Bathe Me in Your Cancerous Warmth

Live without a net, Bruce and Stephe freestyle episode four with mixed results.  There is discussion of Devolution, Justice League Dark and Bill Sienkiewicz confusion about a Question commission.  Somehow we got to Doug Henning and Carrot Top as Hulk Hogan as well.  Just listen.  It will make sense.

Old Men and Their Ailments

Bruce and Stephe are back after a couple of weeks of medical leave.  This week they discuss kidney stones, knee surgery, Micronauts, DC Fandome, toxic fandom and their kids' Netflix choices and other timely topics.
