Welcome to Herogasm week kids.

This week's episode is a bit shorter than usual, owing mainly to Bruce being sickly.  That being the case we still managed to pack a fair amount of stuff into a short period of time.

What kind of stuff?

Glad you asked.  We discussed:

• The Boys (comic and television)
• Ode to Billy Joe (song and movie)
• Carter Country
• Matlock (no idea)
• The USFL
• Football for a Buck
• The Battered Bastards of Baseball
• MLB's City Connect uniforms
• Boba Fett

And, we finally dipped our toes into the Multiverse of Madness.

Enjoy.

It Depends on How You Top Your Salad Really...Now with More Cha Cha

Originally recorded 6/8/22

After a Robert Urich induced hiatus the boys are back with another episode of SlurpToast goodness.

The countdown to SDCC begins in earnest with this episode, but that wasn't all that was discussed.

There was also:

• Stephe still hasn't seen Dr. Strange
• Ms. Marvel
• Black Adam
• Thor
• Thoughts on things being woke
• Toxic fandom
• Glorious Trash
• Black Samurai
• The mid-career films of Sylvester Stallone
• Donna Pescow and the one-named female-driven sitcoms of the 70s
• Lumber jokes
• Game of Thrones
• The possibility of a Dennis Miller bobblehead...babe

Then we played a rousing game of "What's on Your Desk?"

Dr. Zaius for the win.

One Whiff of Shreveport aka Kaiju Over Cairo aka Just Let the Chick Drive the Boat

Recorded 5/12/22

In this episode, the boys show off a remarkable off-the-cuff knowledge about the career of Robert Uhrich.  It started with a Turk-182 reference and rolled on from there, just like Dan Tanna's Caddy convertible.

Sorry, doing it again.

Other topics discussed include:

• Bruce's crazy week
• Stephe's adventures with multi-factor identification
• Moon Knight (duh)
• Living the CPAP life
• Voir Dire
• Brushes with the legal system
• Hallmark's Dream Book
• Strange New Worlds
• Other things Star Trek
• Ranking the Disney+ MCU shows
• Vega$
• The newly announced Spinal Tap sequel

And we ended with What's on Stephe's desk.

But seriously, the Uhrich talk...phenomenal.

I’ll See Your Boxleitner and Raise You a Willis

We are 2/3 of the way through the Disney+ Moon Knight series and we've got thoughts...lots and lots of thoughts.  Why do we have so many thoughts about Moon Knight.  Maybe we should spend a whole show on just that.

This, however, is not that show.

Instead, we talk about things like:

• Kansas City's Planet ComiCon
• house painting
• sooo many shades of white
• our desire to have Donald Westlake (RIP) write Moon Knight
• television shows designed to fill the nation's Raider of the Lost Ark gap in the early 80s
• Seagram's Golden Wine Coolers
• Bruce's idea for the TFL
• Doctor Who
• Better Call Saul
• Steve's addiction to Star Trek ship porn

We also unbox a cool Gorilla Grodd that Stephe sent to Bruce

And, of course, we check in with Connor for an updated count.  I feel like we need a tote board.

Enjoy.

The Moon Knight Episode aka Terrier by Night

It seems like it's all been leading up to this.

For 40 episodes we've featured some kind of Moon Knight talk.  Now, your favorite #Moonatics finally get to talk about the new Disney+ show featuring their spirit animal.

Oh, but they don't start there.

Oh no.

They do a deep dive into the comic book origins of the character and then offer some ideas of their own.

They also cold call Bruce's son, Connor, the guest on Episode 40.

Yeah, they're apparently a Morning Zoo now.

Other topics included:

• The finicky nature of Zoom
• Kids
• Planet of the Apes
• Ted Knight
• Jason Aaron
• The Lost City aka Romancing the Proposal
• Senor Noche

Dive in #Moonatics.

Enjoy.

 

Dropping A$$ with Special Guest Connor Cook

This episode is an example of nepotism at its finest as the boys welcome Bruce's son, Connor, to the podcast, ostensibly to discuss the new Batman movie.

 

The Batman was discussed as were these topics:

 

• Stephe's recent trip to Florida
• Thrifty Car Rental
• Cards Against Humanity
• Connor's pocasting career
• Adventures in the ER
• Moon Knight
• What's on Your Desk?
• MCU television
• Our Tee Public store
• Paul Hogan and Benny Hill
• Dusty Rhodes
• Baseball

I honestly don't remember how we got to Paul Hogan.

Enjoy.

All He Did Was Make Some Weird Alfredo Sauce

Bruce comes in from an afternoon of day drinking to join Stephe for a very reflective episode of the podcast.

When you've been friends this long, sometimes you tell the stories just for yourself and maybe to see if they match up.

What stories?  Listen and find out.

We also talk about:

• Parker
• Jason Statham as Parker
• Robert Downey, Jr. as Parker
• Who would actually be a good Parker.
• Peacemaker
• ATX Cocina
• Southern accents
• Steve Miller
• Batman
• Uncharted 
• Power of the Dog
• Resident Alien

The world may be burning, but you can count on us to keep it light.

Enjoy!

She’s Got Skinny Little Witch Hands

Before the ending was marred by a technical glitch the boys were in top form talking all kinds of pop culture and current event.

Like what you may ask?

Like this:

• Joe Rogan
• Stephe's bout of COVID
• Eternals
• Inhumans
• The Book of Boba Fett
• Star Wars in general
• AEW 
• Selling shit
• Darwyn Cooke
• Holidays
• Reacher
• James Harden and the power of the beard
• MEGO
• Retromania
• Vintage Toys
• AEW again

Then the glitch happened.

Enjoy
