What’s up, my radical moose lambs?!? Chris hangs out with Kia & Vince to talk about Kristen Stewart’s episode of Saturday Night Live!
Also, the boys disagree about the value of prop comedy, wonder how that egg did not crack, and bring together a beautiful spirit of togetherness that makes us all a part of humanity.
Buckle up, my hungry guys, this episode’s a little Rocky.
Can you believe the Black Panther is getting his own movie? Twenty years ago, most people had never even heard of him and now everyone’s going crazy for him!
To see where his rise began, we’re reading the late 90s reboot that put him on the map, written by Christopher Priest with beautiful painted art by Mark Texeira who is NOT the 1st baseman for the Texas Rangers.
Join us as we check out the first five issues!
We’re pleased to announce our newest show: FIRST VS LAST! FIRST VS LAST covers long-running music and videogame franchises by discussing at length the first and most recent entries of the series.
FIRST VS LAST seeks to answer questions like: How have characters, storytelling techniques, and plot points changed over the years? Did the series change focus over its sequels? What series mainstays were there from the beginning, and what was added over later entries?
Our first episode covers the long-running Mario Kart videogame series. Vince and special guest Cody start with 1992’s Super Mario Kart (for the Super Nintendo) and compare it to 2014’s Mario Kart 8 (for the Wii U).
Listen as Vince and Cody are surprised to see how much of the Mario Kart formula was right there from the start (like the lightning bolt, Lakitu saving you when you fall off a cliff, and freaking Rainbow Road), and what things went away and came back (picking up coins on the track).
Along the way, they cover when the pesky blue shell was added, when the battle mode stopped being a major focus, and the rise of online gaming. Also, they talk about their favorite kart racing games that sprung up in the Mario Kart wake (Diddy Kong Racing: Yay! / Star Wars Super Bombad Racing: Boo!)!
Next time: Raiders of the Lost Ark vs Indiana Jones & the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull!
Aziz Ansari hosts the first episode since the inauguration, and Kia & Vince are back to cover it.
Topics Include: The humble beginnings of Beck Bennett’s Vladimir Putin impression, Vince’s misunderstanding what a pink pussy hat looks like, and what it must be like to be a wild and crazy pizza guy!

Well, it’s come to this: the series finale of ALL MY FRIENDS ARE RIGHT HERE! After a three-month hiatus, Vince, Michael, Scott, and Dylan return to say adieu to the flagship podcast.
Topics include: San Antonio jazz club recommendations, not wanting to be friends with people who don’t like Battleship, and how long have certain CBS sitcoms been on the air!
Also, please keep this podcast in your feed. Next week, it will be transforming into our new show FIRST VS LAST, a show talking about long-running series and how they’ve transformed over the years. Our first episode is “Super Mario Kart vs. Mario Kart 8” and you don’t want to miss it!
We’re back from the holidays with a new episode of SATURDAY NIGHT LOVE! This time, we’re talking about Star Wars star Felicity Jones and what we feel was a particularly mediocre episode.
We also talk Beck Bennett’s Beard Hunk and Prince. And what’s Donald Trump’s Sunday morning routine? And how do we feel about Tina Fey calling us out?
Ducks! Ducks! Ducks! If you ever loved Duck Tales as a kid, then you owe it all to Carl Barks, creator of Scrooge McDuck and the city of Duckburg in the pages of his comics in the 1940s.
We look back at his most well loved story, Lost in the Andes, starring Donald Duck with his nephews, Huey, Dewey, and Louie. (Warning: We may or may not solve mysteries / rewrite histories.)
It’s been way too long since we read some Alan Moore, so it’s time to remedy that with his run on Swamp Thing from the early 80’s.
It’s dark, twisted stuff that turned the concept of Swamp Thing on its head and reinvigorated the franchise and influenced to many other comics to this day.
And that terrific horrific art by Stephen Bissette…. treat yourself.
It’s the mid-2000’s revival that nobody asked for! But hot damn was it amazing. It’s Squirrel Girl! And she joined the Great Lakes Avengers in a little miniseries called GLA: Misassembled.
But then they became the GLX (because X-Men, duh) and so then there was a GLX-Mas one-shot special and we just went ahead and read the whole damn thing.
There’s a death in every single issue, surely that will put you in the holiday spirit!
Shirtless Putin returns to SNL this week, and this time, he’s brought Casey Affleck! Vince and Kia kick things off with an epic SNL Trivia Challenge you don’t want to miss! Then they pull no punches on their thoughts on the Krampus and robot sexuality. #hottakes #hottakesfordays
Also, can’t believe we’re doing this, we’re not normally these kinds of guys, but would you please like & subscribe to our podcast SATURDAY NIGHT LOVE?
