    Revisiting Nerd Outpost 209 with Mike McShane

    Revisiting Nerd Outpost 209 with Mike McShane

    Our old friend Mike McShane (IMDb Link) returns to regale us of backstage tales and sordid details of the times before the glitz and the glory (in other words, back when we were all in college together, hanging out in the back rooms at restaurants and sucking nitrous oxide out of whip cream cans). There's also behind the scenes tidbits from movies such as Office Space, Richie Rich, and TV shows such as Seinfeld. And more!

    Not only is this a special episode, it’s also the last episode of season two. But don’t worry, we’ll be back in 2021 with more moreness. There’s going to be even more moreness in the great amount of more in season three!

    You Are Absinthelutely Correct

    You Are Absinthelutely Correct

    If Jack from The Shining were drinking absinthe at that bar, he would have written a wonderful novel instead of turning psycho murderer. Just sayin'. That is one of many important discussions we have here at this terribly important and so very serious show. No where else will you find the hard facts on what it would be like to recast the movie Dirty Harry with Munchkins from the Wizard of Oz. Oh, and just to let you know, season two is winding down. I know, I know, you're either terribly sad or greatly relived, but either way ... there's still a few episodes left. Carry on!

    Dan and Jerry's Excellent Adventure

    Dan and Jerry's Excellent Adventure

    Sadly, Keanu Reeves couldn't join us on this episode as he's busy in Germany filming the new Matrix movie, but we do talk a bit about Bill and Ted, as well as some timely absinthe news, and ... oddly ... UFO sightings in New Jersey which according to the news turned out to be the Goodyear Blimp (but, seriously, if you look at the videos that dozens of people took, it does NOT look like the Goodyear Blimp).

    Remember folks ... be excellent to each other.

    Absinthe and Ammo

    Absinthe and Ammo

    Remember that old Warren Zevon song, "Send Lawyers, Guns, and Money"? Well, this is not it. This is more, "Send Fairy Dust, Zombies, Bob Newhart, The IT Crowd, Travel Man, What We Do in the Shadows, Journey to the Center of the Earth, Rick Wakeman, Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of the War of the Worlds, Alan Parsons, Star Trek Discovery, and Science Fiction Weapons."

    Drinking Absinthia Absinthe with Absinthia!

    Drinking Absinthia Absinthe with Absinthia!

    Dan and Jerry -- after over 9 years of procrastinating -- finally have the one and only Absinthia as our guest! She tells the boys about the trials and tribulations of being a woman bringing a genuine organic absinthe to market. Dan does most of the interview while Jerry gets more and more "happy" drinking not one ... not two ... but three glasses of her wonderful elixir. Tune into this one for some serious insider information and also a very surprising revelation of the very best absinthe that Absinthia has ever tasted -- from a place that absolutely shocks Dan.

    Thanks go out once again to Absinthia for joining in on this episode, and make sure to check out her absinthe and merch on Absinthia.com

    Burning Plane Crash full of Spiders

    This one has hookah pipes, book discussions ranging from The Hardy Boys through Truman Capote's In Cold Blood, Dan's connection to the late, great Philip K. Dick, and some glowing notes about an absinthe called "Meadow of Love." Plus, of course, all the usual nonsense. You must listen or you'll miss out on all the nonsense!
