  1. In this episode, Damien and Desmond cover the first two albums from trip hop / speed metal duo Rusty Chuck: Boob Height and Sinus Irrigation. But first, they have to get through the final two (for now) releases from The Offspring: Splinter and Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace, respectively. Before they even get into the albums, Desmond drops a bomb on Damien so big that, decades from now, Damien will refuse to teach his history students about this war due to the deeply entrenched socio-political shame involved. But your intrepid hosts do agree on one thing: the awesomeness of studio drummer extraordinaire Josh Freese! Is The Man breaking down Desmond's door, or is the old lady just making noise in the background? And just who is the next band we cover? Listen to find out!

    Episode 22

    Big Damn Heroes has hit its 22nd episode, and it seems to be an episode of returns and favorites. One of the most criminally mismanaged characters of Buffy stars in this round of episodes, one of the Heroes' favorite villains makes a brief appearance, and another character who's been long gone comes back for a small appearance. Also, one of the Heroes' favorite ladies makes a small, understated appearance in this episode. Who are they talking about? Join Will and Hannah as they cover Buffy's "This Year's Girl" and "Who are You?," and Angel's "The Prodigal" and "The Ring."

    Episode 238

    Desmond is off to Las Vegas, but there's still a huge show for you to enjoy. First off, he and Darryll pay tribute to the deceased legend Moebius with a lengthy review of Heavy Metal. Then Devil Dinosaur, Jr. gives us a double feature of Stay Scary with reviews of the Korean Death Bell and the Thai Art of the Devil III. Desmond returns to go solo on the naked-vampire epic Lips of Blood! Plus, your emails! Exclamation points! Songs included: "The Mob Rules" by Black Sabbath, "Heavy Metal" by Sammy Hagar, "Baddest of the Bad" by The Reverend Horton Heat, "Mutilated Lips" by Ween, and "Viva Las Vegas" by Dead Kennedys.

  6. The Cybermen, a woman from 1638, and a Nazi want to get their hands on an all-powerful weapon The Doctor seemingly created ages ago ("Silver Nemesis"). Then The Doctor and Ace visit a deadly circus where they become the acts ("The Greatest Show in the Galaxy"). Also, Mike doesn't understand the titles of British sitcoms, the perils of white men in their 30s writing rap, and Dan's greatest secret is revealed!

  7. The Doctor's role as the master manipulator begins to shine through as his earliest adventure on Earth is retconned into something rather sinister in "Remembrance of the Daleks." And in "The Happiness Patrol," The Doctor and Ace are far from happy when they discover an emotionally oppressed society run by a tyrant and her candy-skinned assassin! Before starting this episode, keep the following questions in mind: what will Dan and Mike have to say about The Doctor's final act against Skaro, did Mike have a change of heart about "The Happiness Patrol," and just how awesome is the Special Weapons Dalek? (The answer to the last one is easy: freaking awesome!) Also, make sure to listen all the way to the end of the program for a special message from our friend Tom Deja.

    Episode 44

    There's a lot to be said about this episode of Extra Lives. It's the end of the Beyond Good & Evil playthrough. It's the announcement of a new game. It's one step closer to episode 50. But really, you're here to listen to two men talk about volcano fishing. [ 1:54:12 || 55.1 MB ] To listen, click here: http://www.earth-2.net/podcasts/extralives/episodes/extralives_044.mp3

    Episode 16

    All aboard the good ship Shake and Blake, as Ian Wilson and Dave Probert embark on choppy waters. In "Volcano," Tarrant and Dayna attempt to negotiate with a group of extreme pacifists, while Servalan attempts to take the Liberator. In "Dawn of the Gods," the Liberator passes through a black hole and encounters a figure from Cally's mythology. (Remember the last time that happened?) Ian's knowledge of children's television is called into question, one character makes Dave so angry he unleashes a storm of C-bombs, and "The Web" loses its crown as worst episode of Blake's 7.

    Episode 237

    A science fiction meditation of depression, a sincere bikers versus zombies novella, a look at a franchise of Thai supernatural gore films, a Bruce Springsteen parody song, and a sober tribute to a legendary French artist. This week's Dread Media is as diverse as ever. First, Desmond and Darryll review Lars von Trier's intense <i>Melancholia</i>. Then Desmond goes solo on Greg Lamberson's new novella from Creeping Hemlock Press: <i>Carnage Road</i>. Continuing his tour of southeast Asia, Devil Dinosaur, Jr. talks about the first two films in the <i>Art of the Devil</i> series in the latest Stay Scary. Then, finally, Desmond accompanies Tom Deja in this week's Macabre Musical Theatre in their rendition of "Universal City." We're sorry. Other songs of note: "And Sadness Will Sear" by Trivium, "Depression" by Black Flag, "The Long Road" by Tiger Army, "Black Magic" by Slayer, and "Temple of Your Dreams" by Monster Magnet.

  11. In this episode, covering Americana and Conspiracy of One, Damian and Desmond cover "that era" of The Offspring's career. The song "Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)" inspires no less than 20 minutes of vitriolic sonic hatred. Question: What are some things that punk songs should not contain? Answer: Steel drums, drum machines, the words "sail away," or a Rob Schneider sample. Question: What are things that songs should contain? Answer: The Beach Boys. This episode is a roadmap for young punk bands wondering how to remain relevant. You're welcome!

  12. In the time since my last edition of The List, I've grown as a person and realized a lot of important things about the world. Namely, 20 of something is a lot more than I originally anticipated. Yes, it's true, I intended to finish The List in 2011, but I'm sure Batman intends to rid Gotham of crime at the end of every issue, and we're basically doing the same work. Think about it.

  13. Firstly, roving gangs, killer machines, cannibal grannies, and an undying architect plague The Doctor and Mel ("Paradise Towers"). Then genocidal mercenaries hunt an alien queen to Earth, in an effort to destroy her and her rapidly growing spawn ("Delta and the Bannermen"). And lastly, a dragon holds the key to an icy madman's freedom ("Dragonfire"). Additionally, Dan teaches Mike a new word, Mel leaves The Doctor to take up with Sabalom Glitz, Ace debuts, and Dan believes the 24th season just might be the worst ever.

    Episode 21

    Hey, look! Big Damn Heroes is legal to drink! And with the batch of episodes Will and Hannah are covering this week, they're gonna need it. Why does everyone want to fuck Riley? Where does female genital mutilation come into the picture? Where's the overarching season plot been hiding? And which of these episodes has a genuinely good twist and is also terrifying? Join the Heroes as they cover Buffy's "The I in Team" and "Goodbye, Iowa," and Angel's "She" and "I've Got You Under My Skin." And don't forget to do the Creep!

    Episode 235

    In an episode dedicated to the Winnipeg-based independent film collective Astron-6, Desmond and Darryll take a look at their grindhouse homage, Father's Day. Then Desmond goes solo on their short film omnibus, Astron-6 Collection. Devil Dinosaur, Jr. provides a Stay Scary segment dedicated to Pat Mills and Clint Langley's comic book barbarian, Slaine the Wanderer. Also, Tom Deja is back with a Macabre Musical Theatre. All this, and songs galore!

  22. Hey, Dropped D listeners! Did you think, like others, that perhaps last episode was light in the tangent department? Well, this is the episode for you! They went on a long tangent before recording, began the episode on a long tangent, and indulged in several tangents of varying length during the episode. In fact, as you listen to this right now, Desmond and Damien are still having a lengthy conversation about Art Deco architectural style on the west coast of North America. They both think it's quite droll. See you next time! Also: Smash and Ixnay on the Hombre are the two albums being discussed this week.

  23. In this episode of The Last Podcast: Is "The Runaway" a forgotten treasure, or should it simply be forgotten? In "The Puppetmaster," should we feel sympathy for the plight of of the titular character, or scorn for what she has become? And is "Nightmares and Daydreams" really necessary? These questions, and many more, are discussed inside. [ 1:02:08 || 30.1 MB ] To listen, click here: http://www.earth-2.net/podcasts/avatarthelastpodcast/episodes/avatar_017.mp3

  25. It's two months overdue, but Chris and Desmond are back to talk about five more issues of Tomb of Dracula! More specifically, Tomb of Dracula #24-27 and Giant-Size Dracula #2. But first, they pay tribute to several comics professionals who have recently passed away. Yes, it was a while ago at this point, but these guys still deserve their tribute. Then, when it's time to dive into the comics, the two look at the sexual escapades of Blade, the introduction of Hannibal King to the Dracula mythos, odd synchronicity, Taj-dickery, and the moon's intense illness.
