Saturday Night Love S41E05 – Elizabeth Banks

snl41-05

Elizabeth Banks hosted SNL this past week on an episode filled with Uber jokes and foul-mouthed babies. Also, the boys present their Grand Moynified Moyniverse Theory, where all of Bobby Moynihan’s SNL characters are actually related (Riblet is Drunk Uncle’s son!). And that’s something you can take all the way to the bank!

That Was a Game 004 – James Bond 007: The Duel


We conclude our initial series of James Bond 007 videogames by looking at JAMES BOND 007: THE DUEL for the Sega Genesis.  Released in 1993, THE DUEL stars Timothy Dalton as the British super spy, four years after Dalton last played the role in the 1989 film LICENSE TO KILL.

What we got was a fairly generic early 16-bit platformer.

AMFARH 036 – The ABCs of Rock

amfarh-036

This week we’re going back to school: the school of rock! On this episode, the guys play a game that will require them to know a little about rock n roll history, and a lot about the alphabet.

Topics include: songs that name drop Wichita, unpopular opinions on Nirvana, and people who are not Matisyahu.

Saturday Night Love S41E04 – Donald Trump

snl41-04

Well…that was an episode.

Kia, Scott, and Vince talk about highly watched, really mediocre episode of SNL.  Weirdly, one of our big criticisms of this episode was “Why wasn’t there more Donald Trump?”

Best Skit of the Night!
This week’s honors go to the Hotline Bling Parody!

Some of My Friends Read Comics 015 – Alias: The Underneath (AKA Jessica Jones)

somfrc015

Jessica Jones is almost on Netflix! We’re pumped but we didn’t want to accidentally spoil anything, so we read a story from her debut series, Alias, that definitely won’t have anything to do with the show.

In issues 16-21, Jessica runs around looking for Spider-Woman (Women?), she sleeps with Ant-Man (Paul Rudd?), and she’s gotta deal with that idiot, Speedball, and his dumb balls bouncing all over the place (????).

Not only that, but we throw in b-b-b-bonus issue #10 where she scams J. Jonah Jameson and the Daily Bugle. Classic Jessica.

AMFARH 035 – Trivia Quest!

amfarh-035

On this episode, our heroes engage in an epic Dungeons & Dragons style role-playing quest — and this time, the battles are fought not by rolling dice, but by answering pop culture trivia questions.

Armed only with their Star Trek, Harry Potter, and Love Guru knowledge, our heroes must rescue a village from the villainous thumb of lava-dwelling hipsters who drink bubbling PBR.

The only way to defeat them is to shame them.  And the only way to shame them is to know more than they do.

That Was a Game 003 – Spy Muppets: License to Croak

We continue our James Bond series by looking at a Muppets/007 parody – Spy Muppets: License to Croak for the Game Boy Advance.  Kermit stars as Agent Frog, Gonzo plays villain Dr. Nose, and Miss Piggy appears as double-agent Piggy Galore!

AMFARH 034 – The Best James Bond 007 Theme Song

amfarh-034

The newest James Bond 007 movie opens this week, and though we already had a James Bond episode this year, there’s no lack of things to talk about when it comes to Britain’s top super spy!

This week, our panel of James Bond experts, hipsters, and musically uninclined people are here to rank all 24 James Bond theme songs from top to bottom.

Listen as one panelist attempts to sabotage the list by subtly sneaking not-really a James Bond song “Kingston Calypso” too high, another panelist summarizes academic research about what Madonna’s “Die Another Day” lyrics really mean, and another panelist imagines a world where the “Quantum of Solace” was sung by Jack Black instead of Jack White.

Some of My Friends Read Comics 014 – Batman: The Long Halloween

somfrc014

Batman embarks on a search for the mysterious “Holiday” Killer who, starting on Halloween, kills mobsters on major holidays until Batman finally catches Holiday a year later…

Wait, a year?!?! Better improve those detective skills, Bruce.

To be fair, he gets distracted by every single member of his rogues gallery and on top of all that he has to watch Harvey Dent go crazy and turn into Two-Face.

Join us as we read The Long Halloween and disagree completely on just about every aspect of this story!

On this very special Halloween edition of AMFARH, the guys have snuck off into the spooky woods behind Old Mr. Miller’s barn to tell some scary stories.

But these aren’t your run of the mill Halloween tales, these are scary pop culture experiences, such as Most Upsetting Spoiler, Most Embarrassing Media Consumed With Parents, and Worst Celebrity Encounter.

Topics include: Jakob Dylan hissy fits, the lovely triangles of Lara Croft, and getting shamed by your mom.

Good job, mom!
