The Undertaker
Pop culture expert extraordinaire William Bruce West squares up with Tom this episode to talk about one of the biggest names in the wrasslin' business -- THE UNDERTAKER! Join as we take a look at The Phenom's 30-year career with all its highs, lows and sometimes just outright bizarre moments. Listen along as we grapple with our love of the character...and our oft-complex feelings about the man beneath the Stetson hat, Mark Calaway. Along the way, we also ponder why Brother Love was so red, whether blogs are dead and talk about how Will's journey to the USSR inspired him to become the media mogul that he is today.
Songs featured in this episode:
Intro: Mercyful Fate – A Dangerous Meeting
Outro: Tangerine Dream – Force Majeure

Tom & Ross dissect Fox's Alien Autopsy special
Ross Blocher of Maximum Fun's "Oh No, Ross & Carrie!" joins Tom this month to discuss the Fox Network Alien Autopsy special. This weird artefact from 1995 was a genuine phenomenon in its time -- a simpler time when we were all obsessed with being abducted by aliens. We talk 90s paranormal culture, Jonathan Frakes, the Scholastic Book Fair, Stan Winston and why it's important not to believe everything you see on TV.
Songs featured in this episode:
Intro: Rainbow – Tarot Woman
Outro: Tangerine Dream – Force Majeure

Interview with the Vampire
Guest-starring Jess & Josh from Are You There, Pod? Blake from Discographology also swings by to say hi too.
This may be our best-sounding episode yet, thanks to the new mic. And this week, we talk about the book that's turned several generations goth -- Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire! We talk about both the book and the movie, what it would take to make Josh read the whole Vampire Chronicles series, formative memories at the video store, Jess' suggested edits and the true test for whether something has had pop culture impact. Fan or not, there's plenty for you to enjoy in this one.
