All My Friends Are Right Here 067 – Music Decade: The 1980s

amfarh-067

Radical! Tubular! Voodoo Economics! This week, we’re going back to one of our favorite games: Music Decade!

The guys will judge the merits of three given songs from each year in the 1980s, and ultimately determine the 10 songs that perfectly define the decade.

Along the way they’ll answer important questions like: Was John Mellencamp an icon of gay fashion? What’s the real difference between The Replacements and The New Radicals? And do music notes mysteriously get higher in a karaoke room than they do in your car?

Some of My Friends Read Comics 032 – Beasts of Burden

somfrc032

Dogs and cats! Cats and dogs! Ghosts and zombies and witches and frogs!

Instead of our typical superhero fare, today we stray away from the pack (get it?) and read the first volume of Beasts of Burden, a collection of eight short stories about pets encountering the supernatural.

Evan Dorkin’s scary and sentimental writing combined with Jill Thompson’s beautiful artwork makes this a series that’s not to be missed!

That Was a Game 015 – Disney’s Tarzan Untamed

In honor of the new LEGEND OF TARZAN movie starring Eric Northman, we take a look at Disney’s Tarzan Untamed for the Nintendo Gamecube!

When you think of Tarzan videogames, do you think of surfing down rivers and water-skiing behind vultures?  Well, you should!

All My Friends Are Right Here 066 – The Pitch Room: Day of the Invasion

amfarh-066

Fifteen years ago, Dylan and Scott wrote & directed the award-winning short film “DAY OF THE INVASION”, a loving homage to the alien invasion B-movies of the 1950s.

DAY OF THE INVASION had everything – love, drama, comedy, the best movie president ever (played by Vince) and DESTRUCTOBOT 5000!

Now, Dylan and Scott have booked a meeting with Hollywood’s movers & shakers to pitch a feature length version of DAY OF THE INVASION for a new generation. This is their planning session before they meet with the fabled “Pitch Room.”

Some of My Friends Read Comics 031 – Doom Patrol by Grant Morrison

somfrc031

Doom Patrol! A name some of us have heard far too often, but do we really know what it means?

To find out, we travel back to the late ‘80s to read the start of one of Grant Morrison’s first runs with DC comics in Doom Patrol 19-22.

We’ve got Surrealism, Dadaism, and the straight up bizarre in spades as we deal with a humans trapped in a robot body, multiple personality (and multiple super-power!) disorder, and a wheelchair bound asshole.

All My Friends Are Right Here 065 – I Hate the TV & Movies That My Kid Loves

amfarh-065

In honor of Father’s Day, our panel of expert parents share the TV and movies their kids love that they hate.  Join us for a cathartic episode where our parent friends unload on how much they hate Caillou and Thomas the Tank Engine and Toodles!

Sometimes we hate how the main character is a whiny brat.  Sometimes we hate the premise of the whole world wondering things like why is a science teacher relying on his 4th-grade students for lesson plans and how can Caillou’s family afford that house on a single income?

Also, to balance out all the negativity, our panel explains the things they do like and the things they wished their kids did like.

For those of you don’t have kids, this episode will give you all the things you need to avoid.  And for those of you that don’t want kids, this episode will re-affirm that you made the right decision.

Some of My Friends Read Comics 030 – X-Men: Apocalypse vs Dracula

somfrc030

To celebrate his big screen arrival, we took a look at the weirdest Apocalypse miniseries we could find, and that was X-Men: Apocalypse vs. Dracula!

Sounds cool, doesn’t it? We thought so too, but instead we just got a bunch of British dudes showing off their tattoos. Listen as we try to figure out why this comic exists and what would have made a much more interesting story.
