Alright alright alright! Failure to Launch star Matthew McConaughey hosts this week’s Saturday Night Love. Vince brings the party down by talking about homeless mortality rates during the holiday season (seriously, donate your coats you’re no longer using to your local shelter), but Kia and Scott are more than happy to rate and review the show.
Yes, he deserves to host and I hope he does it well!
The majority of Spider-Man’s most memorable villains have been around since the early days when he was still under the care of Stan Lee, but one of the few mainstays he didn’t create was the Hobgoblin.
In this episode, we take a look at Roger Stern’s run with Spidey to see what makes Ol’ Hobby so much more special than just the Green Goblin with a new paint job.
We also get to witness Peter “THE ANIMAL” Parker in his most ridiculous wardrobe ever.
With the release of Creed on the horizon, the gang looks back at the legacy of the Italian Stallion, Rock Balboa.
Not only do they rank and discuss every movie, but they also pit their opinions against those of Sylvester Stallone himself, based on a 2013 interview in which he rated each film on a scale of 1-10.
Other topics include: an appreciation of the male form, multiple whole-hearted endorsements of nationalism, and the shocking reveal of Mr. T’s secret rap mentor.

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

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!
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.
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.
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!
