SlurpToast

Papa Shango Sh!t with a Slouch and a Twist

Originally recorded 3/9/23

The boys are back after a month long hiatus that saw Stephe bored with leadership training and Bruce disfigured by a rogue tree branch.

They started things off with a conversation about Funko and their plan to dispose of 30 million dollars worth of dead stock inventory.  As our resident Funko Fanatic, Stephe had thoughts.

After that we discussed Wakanda Forever and a new MCU fan theory making the rounds on the internet.  This one actually has some legs.

What else:

How about:

• Stephe's kitchen remodel
• Samaritan
• Cobra
• Stallone movies in general
• Fine art by Lego
• Bruce's upcoming trip to New Orleans
• Bruce unboxes the new Marvel Legends Howard the Duck figure
• The Authority
• The differences between the writing styles of Warren Ellis and Mark Millar
• The differences between the art styles of Bryan Hitch and Frank Quitely
• There was some random SDCC chatter in there as well

And then the show ended with Stephe invoking the name of Papa Shango.

Nothing good can come from that.

Enjoy.

Squatting in Azatlan - the Music Episode

Originally Recorded 2/6/23

It started out as an aside by Stephe in Episode 54.

"We should do something about Sammy Hagar for our 55th episode."

Bruce, of course, ran with it.

That's how you get the music episode.

Of course we ran into a bout of COVID and a Texas ice storm before we got to do something about Sammy Hagar.

We start off with a tale from the SlurpToast vaults.  The boys reminisce about the day they found out David Lee Roth left Van Halen and how they spent the day picking new lead singers from the available crop in 1985.

Then we talked a lot about concerts, Billy Joel and our general problems with gravity.

We touched on Bruce's half-bake theory of personal pop music relevance.

We went into WAY too much detail about Stephe's recent float therapy experiences.  I'll just say "splish, splish, splish" and leave it at that.

We played a round of "What's on Your Desk?"

Then we talked about the MCU's pending dive into Quantumania and Jonathan Majors' pending superstardom.

Stephe talked about a recent leadership seminar he attended and its connection to Columbo.

We ended things up with a quick chat about Poker Face on Peacock.

That's a lot to get through, but we know if we can, so can you.

Enjoy!

Stephe’s Twelve Days of Liam

Originally recorded 1/4/23

Happy New Year everyone!

I told you'd we back.

The boys open things up by playing with Bruce's new White Elephant podcast light.  Boys and their toys...right?

Up next is holiday chatter.

Discussion of Bruce's son's disastrous shredder work is followed up with praise for him getting a job.

Then we segue into tonight's main event.

In response to the glut of Hallmark movies around the holidays, Stephe took it upon himself to take on the Twelve Days of Liam.  Yes, he watched twelve Liam Neeson movies so, thankfully, we don't have to.

Here's the list:

• Honest Thief
• Blacklight
• Memory
• Unknown
• A Walk Among the Tombstones
• The A-Team (with lots of gunfire sound effects)
• Cold Pursuit
• Under Suspicion
• The Commuter
• Non-Stop
• Darkman
• Taken2

We all owe the man a debt of gratitude.

Bruce shared his somewhat less arduous holiday viewing:

• Glass Onion
• Bullet Train
• Only Murders in the Building

Then we spent an inordinate amount of time discussing Zardoz thanks to a meme Bruce posted.

We ended with a rousing round of "What's on Your Desk?" - featuring the Dream of the Magi.  What does that mean?  Listen!

We also mentioned Hunter Roberts' Dodge Neon bit.  HERE IS THE PROMISED LINK.

The First Annual Arthur Carlson Memorial Episode

Originally recorded 11/16/22

Okay, so this episode nearly became our lost episode.

We recorded it before Thanksgiving, then Bruce started a new job, there were holidays and the death of a pet.

Lots of stuff happened.

But we are getting back on track for the new year, so enjoy this episode and there will be another one later in the week.

What did we talk about?

• Stolen work trucks
• WKRP
• Ranking the MCU
• High school grievances
• Conan the Barbarian
• Roman Reigns as Lobo
• The Rock and Jason Statham
• The death of Gallagher
• Fun with facial hair
• Buyer's remorse
• Nolan Ryan beef

Happy New Year kids!

See you soon.
