    The Doors

    The Doors

    Dune

    Dune

    The kids these days only know one Dune--well, I guess technically two Dune movies telling one story. But a select few of us older folks know there is a long history of Dune on film, on TV and yes even in book form! Even with that history, for a long, long time Dune barely registered on the pop culture meter and it certainly wasn't cool. Join Chris and Dave as they break down the history of this science fiction epic and try to figure out what is the best Dune.

    Twin Peaks

    Twin Peaks

    "Diane, Two Middle Aged Guys Trying to Work it All Out have done an episode on one of my favorite topics.  That would be the town of Twin Peaks.  I know I've told you about the coffee and cherry pie there, Diane.  Still, there's something troubling about that town.  Perhaps Two Middle Aged Guys can help me unravel the mystery of Twin Peaks.  Oh, and Diane, fish does not go in a percolator."

    Me and My Computer Friends

    Me and My Computer Friends

    If you're roughly the same age as the Two Middle Aged Guys, then you grew up before computers, during computers, and now live in the technologically-controlled landscape that we call life.  Join Dave and Chris as they talk about the first computers they ever owned, what computing was like back then, and how it substantially influenced their lives.  If you like numbers like 286 and fancy acronyms like IRQ then this episode is for you!  If not, listen anyway, it helps the download numbers.

Refreshingly New Podcast

TMAG does an amazing job at sounding different. Two long time friends just chatting about some great topics. You can hear the genuine content from them, at the same time getting info which won’t make you feel stupid, but make you go “hmmm, that is interesting” or even “whaaaaa?”, as I found myself. I felt like I was in the room, in the conversation. Definitely looking forward to future episodes.
