Redbeard Podcast

Getting Better all the time. I dont agree with everything they say but thats not the point. They provide their views in an entertaining way. Its got be good because Im yelling at my ipod the whole time trying to join in the conversation!

Been listening to the podcast since episode 1. Have enjoyed listening to the guys improve every episode. It like sitting down with a couple of friends, and hearing about things you enjoy. If you like the regular show. You will like the solo shows.

These guys are a lot of fun to listen to! I will warn you, they get off to a bumpy start (almost every podcast does) but they put it together impressively quick! The best way to describe what this show is about is to imagine having stuff you used to talk about all the time with a group of friends but you have since grown apart and now basically keep your nerdy thoughts and ideas to yourself. Then these two come along and invite you to listen to (and participate in, through twitter) conversations about movies, current nerd stuff and comics. There is no monotone host or structure that they must conform to. They just have a conversation and share their thoughts with each other and anyone who will listen! They also have some interviews that were good (loved hearing Ming Chen spoil The Walking Dead for people who haven’t read the comic) and guests on the show that add different perspectives to the discussion. For as long as they keep putting out quality shows, make mine Redbeard!

I was on board with this duo up until their most recent broadcast. First of all, the Fantastic Four was amazing. Anyone who suffers from insomnia will agree. Like many, they have fallen into the passive “well the reviews say…” grouping. Here is a review for you…strap in and hold on, the Fantastic Four will lower your heart rate, leaving you with the distinct feeling that you have died and gone to heaven (likely because you have in fact died). Next, how DARE you….draw comparisons between Star Trek and Star Wars…JJ Abrams success with one does not dictate his success with the other. I don’t know if you are aware, but the Millennium Falcon and the Starship Enterprise are not the same vessel. Here is what we, your listener want….STAR FOX. I want to tune in and listen to 45-60 minutes of straight STAR FOX chatter. I want you to discuss the games, with strong focus on STAR FOX 64. Get down with the breaking news surrounding Slippy Toad, where is he these days, what is he doing? Is Fox McCloud related to MacGyver? And speaking of MacGyver, how would he have handled the transformers game? Would he have found a way to unite the Autobots and the Decepticons? Or would he destroy one faction claiming allegiance to the other? Say “Hi” to your mother for me. Despite all of this…I love you guys…in that creepy stalker way…in fact look out your window…HI! For those of you looking for a Podcast that focuses strictly on 6-pack abs and dietary supplements….look elsewhere. This Podcast touches upon some great entertainment media, has some obscure guests that are actually worth knowing/hearing from and leaves you with something wanting to start Googling what the hell they are talking about. Also…I don’t understand the name of the Podcast…the beard is not red….and the redhead does not have a beard. Why not redhead and the beard? Or maybe clean and scruffy?
