Show #56 - Wait, THAT was Mark Consuelos?!


Yep. They did another one. Bloody Face himself couldn't keep these two Romneys from recording another podcast. Discussed: Apple's late-October product dump, the utility of iPads, whatever happened to 'DrawSomething', Apple products as art objects for the 5%, the 'Lonely Man' theme and the last shot of the 'Iron Man 3' teaser, what movies Ben Kinglsey is good in, the second season premiere of 'American Horror Story: Asylum', the newfound respect Bear Trap has for Kelly Ripa's husband, the drawbacks of genre mixing, when Katie Couric jumped the shark, the soul-killing banality of network morning television, the debates, the direction of the campaigns in the final weeks, Donald Trump's impending Obama bombshell, and the baby-sized reason for our most recent one-week hiatus. Listen, enjoy, comment.

Show #55 -- Bite-Sized Cinnabons will Tear Your Soul Apart

What? Two weeks go by and you think these two Gozerians were done abusing your eardrums? No such luck. The Obsidian Slab and the Trap for Bears are back with a brand new edition. Prepare yourself: this episode reaches heretofore unscaled heights of mediocrity. Discussed: the sooper-dangerous black ops that kept the podcasters away from their computers in recent weeks, Jim Lehrer's competence (or lack thereof) as a debate moderator, how Obama lost the big debate, what cats and the inability to be alone have to do with Arnold Schwarzenegger, great men versus good men, the lesson of Steve Jobs, a review of the iPhone 5, one of the reasons Apple decided to kick Google Maps to the curb, how thin is too thin when it comes to smart phones, a review of Drew Goddard and Joss Whedon's brilliant 'Cabin in the Woods', which movies Richard Jenkins and Bradley Whitford should be in (spoiler: it's all of them), to what extent the work of Clive Barker is paid tribute in that film, what 'Hellraiser's all about, and how the famed horror novelist nearly met his demise earlier this year. Click 'Play' and enjoy. This is a good one.
