  1. The "Alien" Franchise

    10/29/2025

    The "Alien" Franchise

    Happy Halloween! This year we watched over twenty hours of the Alien franchise, or at least some of us did... And we talk about it for over 4 hours?! Why?! Shane, Ronnie, and Hobo Dan fly this space odyssey into the ground and drunkenly talk about the seven Alien franchise films as well as Season 1 of Alien Earth. We all rank them and have vastly different opinions. After 90 episodes, we've learned its best to just nuke it all from orbit. 0:00 - Halloween Introduction 10:16 - Xenomorph vs Michael Myers? 17:40 - Alien '79 26:21 - Aliens '86 59:10 - Alien 3 '92 1:33:02 - Alien Resurrection '97 2:01:10 - Prometheus '12 2:29:03 - Alien Covenant '17 2:47:47 - Alien Romulus '24 3:10:03 - Alien Earth S1 3:56:01 - Final Thoughts, a Confession, Outro 4:07:10 - Extras End Theme made by: brainless_bearyann.

  2. Monkey Court - Shane V Hobo Dan

    09/24/2025

    Monkey Court - Shane V Hobo Dan

    Welcome to the first and last Wasted Potential Monkey Court. Shane is suing Hobo Dan and Ronnie is presiding over the case. They attempt to talk about three courtroom movies and make sense of this terrible podcast idea. And we thought the Exorcism of Emily Rose was a mess... We also try to talk about A Few Good Men. Then there is My Cousin Vinny. There is no order. No one is honorable. The monkeys are the least of our concern. What we have here is almost three hours of rambling confusion. Judge Ronnie cannot keep control of his courtroom. Shane is drunk and can't stop talking about Demi Moore and Marisa Tomei. Hobo Dan in no way suffered a concussion during the recording of this podcast. This podcast caused our editor to check himself into a 24 hour mental health facility after attempting to salvage this shit. Godspeed. And yep, that sound you hear is Ronnie and Dan constantly clicking pens on an audio recording. Jesus. If you stick around for the Bloopers, you may get a better understanding of why this all fell apart besides general incompetence. Thank you to Bailiff Korey @ Big Dumb Movie Podcast.
