  2. Let's get ready to PODDDDDDDDCAAAAAASSSSST! In this fight night edition of Dread Media, the fight card breaks down as follows: pay attention and place your bets! Round One: Your host knows that he can't beat author Dana Fredsti in a fight because she is a sword-fighter who hangs around with tigers. So instead he interviews her about her zombie-fighting novel Plague Town. Round Two: Desmond goes toe-to-toe with the Timur Bekmambetov-produced The Darkest Hour. Round Three: It's Battle Royale versus Battle Royale 2: Requiem with guest referees Damien Wilkens and Desmond Reddick! Round Four: It's a face-ripping good time as Devil Dinosaur, Jr. takes on the Wrestlemaniac in a new Stay Scary. And your main event, Round Five: a Triple Threat Match as Desmond takes on Darryll and Monster Brawl. It's sure to be a slobber-knocker! This week's fight songs are: "Fight 'Em Til You Can't" by Anthrax, "My Plague" by Slipknot, "In My Darkest Hour" by Megadeth, "Everyone I Went to High School With Is Dead" by Mr. Bungle, "Bodies" by Drowning Pool, "Backyard Brawl" by Alice Cooper, and "Fight Till You Die" by Pennywise.

  4. It's April and the guys are talking about books with February cover dates (Archie Giant Series Magazine #479, Archie #628, Tomb of Dracula #68, American Vampire #22, Walt Disney's Comics and Stories #461, and Disney-Pixar / Muppets Presents: The Treasure of Peg Leg Wilson), but you'll forget and forgive the delay once Dan and Mike begin to gush over comic book ads of the 1970s. Also, these world-shattering questions are asked: Who the bloody hell are The Sylvers? Did Lionel Richie drop in for a photobomb? Is that a Sea-Monkey's tail or something else? And what does Josie offer Alan in an ad for Hostess Fruit Pies? [ 1:31:30 || 44.5 MB ]

  5. The immortal sorceress Morgaine and her wicked son Mordred seek to claim Excalibur as their own ("Battlefield"), then The Doctor aims to better Ace by forcing her to face an evil she felt in her youth ("Ghost Light"). Also: Dan gives The Doctor a rather unassuming name, Mike calls one of these two stories his new favorite, and both Ian Wilson and Tom Deja make appearances. [ 2:03:05 || 59.2 MB ]

  6. This week, as they review the sleazy giallo film Strip Nude for Your Killer, Desmond and Darryll talk about whiskey and black leather. Nothing new there. Devil Dinosaur, Jr. takes a look at George Romero Presents: Deadtime Stories, Volume 1 in a new Stay Scary. Desmond returns to review season two of Todd and the Book of Pure Evil, and goes through some feedback before calling it a show! Tunes are included, as always: "Take it Like a Woman" by Alice Cooper, "Black Leather" by Guns N' Roses, "George Romero" by The Sprites, "Wolf Rape" by Chris Leavins and Shawn Pierce (from Todd and the Book of Pure Evil), and "Art of Denial" by Madlove.

  7. This episode of Extra Lives is all about shame. Well, video games too, but mostly shame, as the guys share the Top Five Games in their Hall of Shame. I'm just going to type shame one more time. Shame. Also, mostly spoiler-free thoughts on Mass Effect 3, more playthrough reveals, and Aaron's dirty secrets. Now is the time to get your questions in for Episode 50! [ 1:56:35 || 56.3 MB ]

  8. Big Damn Heroes has hit episode 23, and the overwhelming consensus about most of the episodes covered today is "..." Highlights include the sex that will not end, suddenly James Bond, and drugging people into eeeeeevil. Oh, wait, did I say highlights? I meant lowlights. The actual highlights of this episode include a brief return of one of the Heroes' favorite Big Bads, and the beginning of a redemption arc for another character. Also, robots. Join Hannah and Will as they cover Buffy's "Superstar" and "Where the Wild Things Are," and Angel's "Eternity" and "Five by Five." [ 1:11:59 || 34.9 MB ]

  9. In this episode of Dread Media, Damien joins Desmond once again to dig through the muck that is Human Centipede 2. There are spoilers, you have been warned. Then Devil Dinosaur, Jr. takes a look at Lesbian Vampire Killers in a brand new Stay Scary. Great feedback and music abounds! "Outlaw Shit" by Struggle feat. Yelawolf, "Don't Shit Where You Eat" by Ween, "Woman" by Wolfmother, and "Jumping the Sharks" by Carter Falco. [ 1:22:21 || 39.7 MB ]

  10. 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! [ 1:35:44 || 46.3 MB ]

  11. 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." [ 55:57 || 27.2 MB ]

  12. 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.

  13. 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! [ 1:56:00 || 55.8 MB ]

  14. 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. [ 1:59:44 || 57.6 MB ]

  15. 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.

  16. 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. RIP Jean "Moebius" Giraud. [ 1:40:09 || 48.3 MB ]

  17. 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! [ 2:08:37 || 62.2 MB ]

  18. 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.

  19. 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. [ 2:24:04 || 69.2 MB ]
