Sinopsis

Greetings! This podcast is a relaxed space for me (Elliot) to dish out talks on a whole bunch of dorky topics. You like movie reviews? I do 'em! You thoroughly enjoy comics? Well so do I! Whether you want to hear my take on something, throwing around some original ideas, or just listen to like-minded folks with similar interests, you're in the right place. I've always had an appreciation for ASMR videos, being a person who's had a hard time falling asleep for the last 15 years. And my intention was never to create a channel playing it up, but I've been told by a lot of people that in person/in episode my voice has an ASMR-ish quality to it. So why not, feel free to get as many tingles as you can while you're here. All my videos are pretty low energy and devoid of background noises, so that's a plus.Also I'm genuinely happy to hear suggestions and ideas, so if you have something you want covered let's hear it! I like discovering new and weird stuff. So if there's a comic from 1983 that you don't think enough people are talking about, shout it out. Or if you're unhappy that no one is reviewing the latest HeroClix set, let's change that (small crowd for that one).Hopefully you like what you hear, and I'll do my best to make content that doesn't suck. I do all my recordings in one, earnest sitting, without any kind of fancy editing. Or editing at all. So at the very least, I can say it's authentic.

  • 2019 Oscar season, 2019 Fortnite season

    04/03/2019 Duración: 40min

    Greetings and salutations Todays episode is about 3 or 4 things but I thought that title had a nice ring to it Through a patchwork of streaming snap stories and reading micro articles afterwards I managed to get a picture of the Oscars Really nothing special this year and after following up the next day breezing through as many articles as I could get my hands on Im even more convinced it was a remarkably unremarkable year Theres been the constant lowlaying buzz around pretty much every award category or nominee Just clickbait fake news type content asking baseless questions and trying to turn things up on the spicy meter But there was no spice this year the spice like the host was absent Oh well I guess we can have a bad year But this has been a pattern of decline after several bad years Its really a shame to see what might be the beginnings of an end for the most iconic night in Hollywood People just dont appreciate film as we used to I mean just look at theater etiquette that can bring a person to murder s

  • A racist drag-queen brunch, and Glass shattering the mold

    05/02/2019 Duración: 28min

    Welcome and if you didnt expect a Glass pun in the title then its probably your first time hereTodays episode is as they all are a bit of everything but I wanted to go into some detail on the two larger features I went with my wife and some friends to a Drag Queen Brunch which is hosted by a very old and trendy Toronto bookstore and LGBT culture spot The Glad Day Bookstore for any of those curious and Torontoside We heard its a good time and good food so we went Maaaan both of those statements arent true The sound sucked and was blaring the acts were so so and the food after taking an hour and 15 minutes for my grilled cheese was lukewarm and bad Now I could have just gone to a sane person restaurant if I wanted great food granted But where I drew the line was the racist comedy routine done by one of the queens I get it White people are easy to make fun of God knows I do it a lot But racism is weak comedy Its low hanging fruit And further this person was more just using it as a chance to make actual racist co

  • A sorrowful farewell to Batfleck

    05/02/2019 Duración: 30min

    Greetings friends Its been back and forth up and down but when the dustsettled this week we got confirmation that Ben Affleck is stepping away fromDC and as Batman I dont really care what anyone else thinks about this oneI salute the performance we got We were lucky He took inspiration from a tonof sources and blended them with taste His Batman was terrifying but notwithout fear He was a calculated tactician but also an aloof Bruce Wayne Wegot vicious handtohand combat unseen outside of a video game and a fleet ofBat vehicles Ben Affleck did an amazing job and created a dynasty as thecaped crusader that brought together the Justice League I feel deeply let downthat we wont get to see more of the Trinity or even the League that we nowhave finally standing together This departure as well as that of Henry Cavillwho will be just as missed means the putting away of B and S as we know itfor a long time Now will come the Supergirl movie to replace Superman TheBirds of Prey movie to take over Gotham hopefully with a

  • Venom is sticky, but does it stick?

    15/01/2019 Duración: 19min

    I know the name is dumb But honestly one of the more satisfying parts of the movie was watching the Symbiote blobs be so viscous gross and well sticky The whole thing kinda reminds me of those sticky hands that you get at a carnival or dollar store You swing it at smooth surfaces people etc Until one day its darkened and covered in layers of dirt and fur and then its no use to anyone Thats all probably some kind of analogy for the movie But look I didnt hate the movie sorry Dave I even thought some of it actually had franchise potential But there were 2 big problems for me firstly the pacing was terrible meaning that you watch the entire first hour of the movie not giving a shit about the failing overacted everyday life that Eddie the handsome hobo Brock leads Relationship jargon career obstacles and a bunch of other things fail to interest the viewer leaving me asking myself when is he going to start Venoming Once the action builds the problem becomes more centered on your terrible predictable villain and un

  • Start the new year right, just wait to buy Fallout 76

    15/01/2019 Duración: 30min

    Happy new year Although chances are more people will catch this episode long after New Years Day but whatever Welcome back folks today were cutting through a few solid pieces of culture Ive got some games some movies and some other stuff on the menu I guess its worth warning you of spoilers but I always feel the kind of people listening to this have probably gotten caught up on the source material first anyway Yes there is a background noise Im sorry I wanted to test filming in this huge industrial turbine space at my work Fear not no work was sacrificed in the process of making the episode unless that is your sort of thing then yeah totally I tried to keep it to a minimal dull roar but hopefully it isnt a distraction or unpleasant for yall Well I go right into Fallout 76 finally and its really not pretty Thats not to say that the game is an outrite disaster I specifically say in the title you should wait to buy the game The reason is that its not done At least it feels like its not It feels like my copy

  • Let's get fucking soaked with Aquaman

    28/12/2018 Duración: 31min

    This episode existed somewhere between a lengthy work marathon an Aquaman showing and was 3 fueled by coffee and Reeses Pieces Splish splash its Aquaman time Which is thekind of catchphrase that kept him from getting cool all those years I cantsay how much of a relief it is for this movie to not have sucked I mean Iloved it but that was probably going to happen anyway Im just gladcritically and not just in China its being loved Aquaman gives usthe Geoff Johns New 52 run but with some really great additions It takescharacters seriously that could have been jokey and it has surprisingly tightfight scenes right off the batAquaDrago is back in full force and despite playing the samecharacter as always Jason makes it work Set aside your worries that hell bewoohooing out of airplanes the whole film Momoas Aquaman is afine mix of lighthearted jokes and swagger so the Thor recipe pretty muchThe cast of the movie are fantastic the art style and effects are great andsuper pleasing And the big one for me actually was th

  • Out in the cold with Avengers Endgame

    11/12/2018 Duración: 19min

    Okay I wasnt in the cold BECAUSE of Endgame but that title sounded nice Today I took things to nature to do another outdoor recording so apologies for any noisesaudio quality because of that I can definitely see why relaxing in a park is more enjoyable in the breezy Summer weather than the frozen winds of Winter but its always nice to take a minute to sit down and enjoy the world around you Cold as it isConsidering my last episode didnt actually contain any of my Avengers opinions in the recording I figured I should dedicate a bit of talking to it this time As I havewill mention a lot this movie is going to be my everything So when I speak about it never think its not from a place of love That being said the trailer comes off a little wonky for me Predictability in the title was worrisome and though the lack of content was creative it also is a cause for some concern I go into this all in full detail but its a tough job for Marvel to follow its own stellar acts and oneup itself I hope they can do it and am ce

  • World War 2, but with Wizardry

    11/12/2018 Duración: 06min

    Heres one I only narrowly decided not to delete A few months ago I was really sick with a coldflu situation So after overdosing on preventive drugs I decided to shoot the shit with myself for a bit via recording and this one was one of note Even sober I stand by this idea though I love revisionist history type stories and I cant think of anything I would want to see more than a brutal historically accurate where possible movie exploring the supernatural magic and occult aspects of humanities biggest war A tale based around the Nazis search for mystic relics and power can work on so many levels The field is also completely open for pretty much any races creatures or phenomena from high fantasy settings everywhere As per usual guys just putting my opinion out there If you think of something cool to add into the pitch Im always interested Cheers

  • A mixed platter, caution; contains mild politics

    02/12/2018 Duración: 17min

    Hey hey guys Today was in response to me being stuck watching the news for most of my day Not my first choice of activity I like to keep aware of whats going on mostly just with fast facts from trusted sources But I do not consider myself a particularly politically active dude Always very open for a discussion and a powwow to discuss ideas But talkin politics gets hard yo People get mad So were keeping it civil today and just covering a bunch of topicsThanks and as always enjoy let me know what kinda flavours you guys want more or less of

  • Seconds of Red Dead the Second. Also talking about the TV Gotham

    08/11/2018 Duración: 22min

    Gday yall As thatll suggest this episode WILL have more Red Dead Redemption in it I cant cover how much fun Im having and I guess youll get a sense of that in the vid Tons of crazy shits out there for you to do though I have a fondness for bounty hunting and train robbingAlso Gotham is a spicy number Admittedly the shows first season is a little rough but man does it get better By the time youre caught up youve gotten to see some of your favourite DC Batcentric characters grow and come into their own Its a great show and you wind up having some pretty unlikely favourites Youll see another Red Dead video coming up Im sure but Ill leave it there for now Adios partners

  • Good god Red Dead is good!

    08/11/2018 Duración: 20min

    Howdy partners I obviously opened with that because Im hardcore into this game right now Red Dead Redemption 2 is fantastic and lets you go on an cowboy epic thats immersive as hell as Ill mention a lot in the video Gameplay is as open as youd want with the detail and freedom to pretty much do anything you can think of The horses are fun to stylize and saddles can be kitted out to Theres hella minigames and gambling chances and of course so much stuff to hunt and skin Of course customizing your gun hat and duds is mandatory and when youre walking around in a cowboy youve designed is a satisfying experience If I could find one thing a challenge its the consequences for cutting loose Not to sound like a murderer but its really fun to have an old school saloon shoot out and waste a bunch of fools Though the 300 bounty following is an annoying thing to contend with though no matter how fun the slaughter The game is perfect though this just makes you reflect on yourself Im sure theres other stuff in there but see

  • Oh snap, it's Spiderman time. And let me complain about Hereditary for a sec.

    24/10/2018 Duración: 14min

  • A short-film pitch for DC, plus sampling the indie comic market

    23/09/2018 Duración: 22min

    Hey hey Just another episode for you guys to check out Ive been a little busy to cook these up fast enough but Im tryingAs I said a few podcasts back here is my short film idea Ive been sitting on for a bit Could use some work and Id love to hear suggestions But I think this property has been totally underserviced by films and I feel theres some actual darkness to work with in the character instead of differing from the source material to just be Snyder Dark What a twist Speaking of comics Black Hammer and Lazarus are both fantastic titles You aways know its good when youre hooked from Vol 1Probably some other stuff in there too enjoy And with the arrival of Autumn weather I can finally go back to saying Winter is Coming
