    Episode 165L The Adventures of Jon

    After an absence of several years, Jake and Tom are thrilled to welcome their globe trotting friend Jon Stump back to the show.  For the episode, the guys decided to forgo the idea of having "a topic" in favor have just letting the conversation take them where it wanted.  Listen in as the guys delve into tangents such as:  • How Jake and Tom still can't wrap their heads around how time zones work. • Jon's sudden (and unwilling) decision to become a "food minimalist". • Their experiences with weight loss. • The challenge of living in areas of the country that aren't used to dealing with snowstorms. • Jake's son "takes one for the team" and provides him with a much needed quarantine. • The guys' initial impression of Amazon's "Invincible" series. • Tom's compulsion to buy "prestige editions" of comic books. • The guys miss comic cons. • Anticipation for "The Suicide Squad". • Jake discovers that he's from a parallel universe. • Tom's surprise visit up to Tom's house. • Jake is mainlining all of "Star Trek" as fast as humanly possible. • Jon's stories about being in Vietnam as the world was entering into lockdown.   As always, be sure to help Jake and Tom in their quest for world domination by rating them highly on your podcatchers of choice, following the guys on social media, and by sharing the show with your friends. Don't forget to check out Tom's guest spots over on "Someone's Favorite Movie" (hosted by friend of the show Randy Perkins), as well as all of the great shows brought to you by the guys' partners in internet radio, Geeks Worldwide!   Copyright 2021 Thomas Coe, Jacob Wilson & Jon Stump Intro By HAB Cover Art By Villain Archives

    Episode 163: Ramblin' With Roe, Vol. V - Attack of the Karens

    Due to technical difficulties (also known as Tom broke his computer), the guys are having to delve into the archives for this new episode.  And as such, they pulled out everyone's favorite archivist, Roejen Razorwire!  But first, a little background. This episode was originally recorded a full year prior to its release in the spring of 2020.  And it started out with every intention of reviewing the back half from the fourth season of "Rick and Morty".  But, well, the spirits were flowing, and the three drunken dorks decided to let the conversation go where it wanted to. So listen in as the guys make fun of each others drinks of choice, tease the possible return of one of the guys' favorite segments of the podcast, feeling hesitant to return to movie theaters so soon after lockdown ended, Roe's encounter with a "Karen in the Wild" while returning all of the empty bottles he accumulated while in quarantine, the difficulties of dealing with people accustomed to instant gratification that were then having to get used to wait for stuff, as well as Tom's role as his office's "COVID Bouncer".   Be sure to check out Roe on his amazing podcast, "Project: Archivist".  And don't forget to help Jake and Tom in their quest for global dominance by rating them highly on your podcatcher of choice, following them on social media, and by sharing the show with your friends.

    Episode 161: #ReleaseTheJakeAndTomCut - A "Before and After" Review of "Zack Snyder's Justice League"

    Listen in as Jake and Tom welcome back their pal Ryan (host of the world famous "NerdRage Podcast") to talk about what may very well be the most coveted and controversial comic book movie of all time - "Zack Snyder's Justice League". Three weeks prior to the film's streaming debut, the guys sit down to briefly talk about the history of the films as well as the good, the bad and the ugly parts of the fans' campaign to get the film released.  Along the way, they discuss what they expected to see when they finally had a chance to watch the film the way it was originally intended to be seen. Flash forward four weeks, and the guys regroup after having had the chance to view and digest the entire four hours of the film.  From there, they get into what they think worked better in this version of the story versus the theatrical release, what they think could have been left by the wayside, and what they think the next step going forward will be for these films.   After you're done listening to this episode, be sure to help Jake and Tom in their quest for global domination by rating them highly on your podcatcher of choice, following them on social media, and by sharing their stuff with your friends!   Don't forget to check out Tom's spots over on "Someone's Favorite Movie" (hosted by friend of the show, Randy Perkins), as well as all of the great shows brought to you by the guys' partners in internet radio, Geeks Worldwide!   Copyright 2021 Thomas Coe, Jacob Wilson & Ryan Anderson Intro By HAB Cover Art By Villain Archives

    Episode 160: A Pod Called Wanda

    Jake and Tom are finishing what they started two episodes ago and are wrapping up their full review of WandaVision.  Only this time, they're bringing back their pals John and Roe from the podcast, "Old Nerds Drinking"! After Roe unfortunately steps out to recover from an illness, the remaining dorks break down their thoughts on the show.  Namely, they discuss how the show lived up to the expectations put forth by both the creators as well as an overabundance of fan theories,  how the guys may (or may not) have been prepared for the series based on their comics fandom, what they think the success of the show means for the future of the MCU (as well as entertainment as a whole), as well as how this show succeeded where Marvel's recent programs failed in the past. After you're done listening to this episode, do yourself a world of good by checking out John and Roe over at "Old Nerds Drinking", as well as following them on their excellent Facebook group. And as always, be sure to help Jake and Tom in their quest for world domination by rating them highly on Apple Podcasts, following them on social media, and by sharing their stuff with your friends. Don't forget to check out Tom's guest spots over on "Someone's Favorite Movie" (hosted by friend of the show Randy Perkins), as well as all of the other great shows brought to you by the guys' partners in internet radio, Geeks Worldwide!   Thomas Coe, Jacob Wilson, Roejen Razorwire & John Patrick Intro By HAB Cover Art By Villain Archives

  5. Episode 159: Waiting For Ryan... (AKA, "First World Geek Problems")

    03/07/2021

    Episode 159: Waiting For Ryan... (AKA, "First World Geek Problems")

    Jake and Tom planned to record a helluva good episode this week, but, well...  Life kinda got in the way.  But they're taking their commitment to regularly releasing shows seriously, so they're digging out this nugget for the listeners! A few weeks ago, they guys recorded the first part of their upcoming "Before and After" review of Zack Snyder's Justice League with their pal Ryan from The Nerd Rage Podcast, but before they could get that started, Ryan was running behind.  Luckily, Tom hit the record button to capture the conversation he and Jake were having while waiting because they had the time to discuss something near and dear to them that they never seem to actually talk about on the show - Comic Books! So listen in as your two favorite drunken dorks converse about the changing ways they've been reading funny books, their love of "shelf porn", their temptation to get into "custom bound" comic books, the pros and cons of reading books digitally (and what it will mean for the printed medium), Tom's burning desire to give money to Chip Zdarsky, how the guys both love and hate huge omnibuses, as well as their longing to return to the days when folks could go to conventions.   As always, be sure to help Jake and Tom in their quest for world domination by rating them highly on Apple Podcasts, following the guys on social media and by sharing the show with your friends! Don't forget to check out Tom's guest spots over on "Someone's Favorite Movie" (hosted by friend of the show Randy Perkins), as well as all of the great shows brought to you by the guys' partners in internet radio, Geeks Worldwide!   Copyright 2021 Thomas Coe & Jacob Wilson Intro By HAB Cover Art By Villain Archives
