Scaaaaaaaary!

Goodness gracious! The yearly tradition is here again, as Best of the Best presents the Spooktacular 2016! A wonderful mix of technology fear, AI uprisings and delicious Nabisco products. Everyone should listen and try not to pee your pants with such a bone-chilling tale about the one man who stands between peace and a nuclear war. You know, light-hearted stuff compared to what’s going on in the world now. Listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

This drawing is ALSO made of cocaine.

Cocaine is no joke. But, cocaine addiction? A laugh riot, apparently. Andrew and Mark look into the white stuff via the 1983 made-for-TV movie, “Cocaine: One Man’s Seduction.” And despite all odds, things turn out pretty okay for the addict in this story. Listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

Gotta be honest: This movie is longer than 44 minutes.

This week on TV Movie Night, Mark and Andrew dig into ripped from the headlines film, “44 Minutes: The North Hollywood Shootout.” Enjoy as Michael Madsen growls and grumbles about getting those dirtbag bank robbers for a full 90 minutes. Also, watch as Mario Van Peebles preaches the gospel in the midst of a LAPD shootout. You know, normal stuff. Listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

Tony Danza, please speak up!

Everyone is going to have to be very quiet, because you’ll need to pay attention to all these deadly whispers on TV Movie Night. Mark and Andrew get right in each others’ ears and watch CBS’ “Deadly Whisper,” starring Tony Danza and his “Streetcar Named Desire” Southern accent. Also, Pamela Reed is there, too. And a dead daughter, as well. Listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

G-g-g-g-ghost!

Ghosts are everywhere and we run into one in this week’s movie on TV Movie Night! Ernest Borgnine starts in “The Ghost of Flight 401,” a spooky in-flight shlockfest, coupled with all the best ads the late 70s can provide. Andrew and Mark decide that busting makes us feel good as they dig in to this “Jet-age ghost story.” Listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

Uh, it’s a BLUE light, not an ORANGE light, box art. Get it right, or pay the price.

We’ve got construction coming up and those idiots at the home office sent over a Killdozer, instead of the backhoe and driller we asked for. But, we’ve got to get this thing done, so we’ll be strapping in with Killdozer this week on TV Movie Night. Andrew and Mark experience the B-movie madness of a mysteriously controlled piece of construction equipment, all while finding parallels between killer bulldozers and the Nixon White House. Oh, and we welcome Baby Killdozer into the world and look forward to their next appearance on this very podcast. Listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

This appears to be a lot more “After-y” than the movie itself.

It’s a new year, so you know what that means? Doing your taxes! And also a new podcast feature from these two jerks. We still are interested in the world of television, but Andrew and Mark are going more cinematic as they open up the long-forgotten world of television movies on TV Movie Night! We start everything off with one of the biggest TV movies to date: ABC’s The Day After. Bombs are dropping, but everyone can huddle up and listen to our analysis of this early 80’s classic. Listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

We’ve got an emergency here! And it’s a good one!

We checked the couch cushions and found this lost episode of Episodic Memories tucked inside of it. Mark and Andrew wind up the crank phone and roll out with an episode of Emergency! We’ve got it all: Handsome doctors! Lack of plot closure! And nothing but shots of 60s Los Angeles! Get excited and listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

It’s been some time, but we’ve gotten over our hauntings to round out the year in wonderful fashion. Andrew and Mark dive head first into the world of variety with the Dean Martin Christmas Special on this week’s Episodic Memories. From jokes about Eisenhower to a medley of every Christmas song that’s ever existed, this show has got it all. Then, get a very positive and not at all depressing roundup of the year.

Three years running! It’s the world-famous Spooktacular 2015! Andrew and Mark are joined by fellow podcast aficionados Jefferson and Jason from “Ask Jefferson,” as a murder is afoot.

The fanciest logo the year 2018 can buy!

It’s October and you know what that means? Less than three months until Christmas! But, also, Halloween, I guess? We kick off Spooky-tober with this haunting episode of SeaQuest DSV.

The revolution will not be televised. Mainly because it’s in HD, and this appears to have been dragged out of my grandmother’s house.

It’s here! A brand-new television season is here, and Andrew and Mark crack open the newest offerings. And because we’re busy guys who ain’t got time to mess around with television shows, we get to the meat of the issue by just watching the trailers for these shows.

Spooky-tober arrives early, as Mark and Andrew head downstairs and discover HBO’s “Tales from the Crypt.” In this week’s episode, Mark discusses his abject terror over the Cryptkeeper, we get a brand-new chapter in “The Guy That Pooped Out a Poop Monster” and we get a bonus look at selling HBO’s brand of blood and boobs to kids via a game show.  Get excited and listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

Seems like a real lousy way to keep track of important stuff, but what do I know?

Mark and Andrew are all about urban exploration as they begin exploring warehouses of all shapes and sizes, from Warehouse 9 all the way to Warehouse 54. But, SyFy’s “Warehouse 13” is the place that has us the most interested. Combining elements from Indiana Jones, Moonlighting and Home Improvement, Andrew and Mark settle in to check out this fun take on tomb raiding this week on Episodic Memories. Also, the guys settle in to play the fastest growing quiz sensation, “Is This Funny?” Get excited and listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

The only unreal thing is someone got paid money to create that logo.

It’s time to get real. REALLY real, with Lifetime’s “UnReal,” which exposes the seedy real underbelly of unreal reality shows. Really. Mark and Andrew try to reel it in with the realness and figure out what the hell is happening in this show. From masturbating on set to messing with someone’s prescription medication, this show really has it all.

I never noticed Yoda being so…angular… in the movies.

Saddle up and get ready to travel to a galaxy far, far away (near Barstow, I think?), as Episodic Memories returns from its summer hiatus. Andrew and Mark look this week at Cartoon Network’s “Star Wars: The Clone Wars,” and try to make as many Star Trek references as they can. Will Yoda be there? Who is that lady with the green lightsaber? Will we find out the backstory of Anakin hating sand, aside from it being coarse and getting everywhere?

Uhhh, maybe not the best choice of picture. But, it’s too late now.

Don’t call it a comeback. Because we might owe some money to the estate of LL Cool J. Just call it a return to form, as Best of the Best makes its triumphant reappearance. You know the drill: Mark and Andrew will talk about three Best Ofs, and decide who is the most right. Lots at stake.

The only funny book character I want to see live is Richie Rich. That kid is hysterical.

In a stunning season finale, Episodic Memories hits the road to bask in the superhero stupor of “Marvel Universe Live!” A traveling stage show featuring characters like Spider-Man, Wolverine and The Hulk, we get front row seats to find out how many motorcycles get driven and which superhero has the best kickflip (the results MAY surprise you). Andrew and Mark also discuss the giddy glee of getting nearby children to dislike you. As a brief programming note, this will be the last Episodic Memories for a little bit, but fret not, there’s still plenty of material coming down the pipe. In fact, we’re switching back to a weekly format for the summer. Get excited and listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

Who’s gettin’ leveraged this time? The results MAY surprise you.

The day is finally here! After years of slowing trying to piece together ideas from billboards and half-viewed commercials, Episodic Memories finally figures out what the hell is TNT’s “Leverage.” Mark and Andrew don’t get mad, they get even as they review this hour-long “Mission: Impossible” homage about leveraging, people about to leverage and other fulcrum-related activities. Put on your finest pork pie hat and settle in for the zaniest heist since that time the Apple Dumpling Gang robbed Caesar’s Palace. Listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

Keep it real. And appearance.

We take a look across the pond this week on Episodic Memories, with posh accents and driving all up on the wrong side of the road. Andrew and Mark do our best to present ourselves as the upper class chaps we are as we look at BBC flagship “Keeping Up Appearances.” Join us as we investigate mystery laugh tracks, meandering sight gags and weird reaction shots. You know, British shows. Wot wot. Honey nut cheerios and what not.

Hugs are weird in tennis.

With the passing of writer Sam Simon, Andrew and Mark opt to dig into Mr. Simon’s back catalogue, past all of that quote unquote “really great television” like “The Simpsons,” “Taxi,” and “The Tracy Ullman Show.” Instead, we focus our attention on the one-season 1993 ABC sitcom “Phenom,” co-created by Sam Simon. Andrew and Mark serve up some observations on this tennis-based family comedy, like “Who are these people?” and “Why were there laughs after that line?” We also get to see guest appearances from television’s Ed McMahon, George Burns and the Mom from That 70’s Show.

Captain’s Log. Stardate 5.55.136. Our view screen just flipped on and started showing “Star Trek: The Animated Series,” so we thought, “Hey, what the hell? Let’s watch this, yeah?” So, that’s what we did. Andrew and Mark explore the cheaply animated worlds all around this galaxy and learn a lot of important space lessons, like how to make a 20-foot clone of yourself and how to choke out a plant man.

Twice as Vice.

Officers Krukowski and Gonzales are hitting the streets to bust all the scumbags that are bringing down this fair city. But, we’ll need a little training, so we’re checking out an episode of NBC’s 80s hit “Miami Vice.” We’ll learn all the tricks: rolling up your jacket sleeves, driving fast cars and checkin’ out bikini girls’ hinders.

Oh, get off your high castle.

It’s time to load up the “What If” machine and take a look at some alternate timelines this week on Episodic Memories. Andrew and Mark go back to the 1950s to purchase a copy of Grey’s Almanac, and also check out Amazon Studios’ “The Man in the High Castle” while they are there. One of the many digital pilots looking for a series pickup, “Castle” looks at the possibility of a Axis win during WWII and what that means for the US. What that means for you is an episode where Mark is nearly physically restrained from doing his Japanese impersonation. Make sure you’re not currently in the darkest timeline already, then listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

Look up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! Well, it’s kind of a plane! It’s more of a helicopter! But, it’s in the sky! So, you gotta give us that! Andrew and Mark look skyward for this week’s episode, covering the sky-bound action series, “Airwolf.” Listen in as the guys discuss the finer points of helicoptering, doing great impressions and Andrew informs the listeners about his ascent into the upper crust via Yogurtland frequent buyer cards. Check your altimeter and hit the retro boosters, then listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to do us a solid and get in on this episode of Episodic Memories. Andrew and Mark take a look at their dossier and inspect an episode of Mission: Impossible. Also, we play script doctors and perform a new segment entitled “The Punch-Up.” And we lose our minds over poorly run cables. Safety on set is job one, everyone.

It’s Christmas here at Episodic Memories and what’s more holiday-centric than a murder investigation! Scratch that, an ATTEMPTED murder investigation! Andrew and Mark head out to the east coast and look into CBS’ “Murder, She Wrote.” Specifically, the show’s ninth season Christmas episode entitled “A Christmas Secret.” Also, Andrew gets mad at Mark for showing up 45 minutes late and Mark discusses overhearing bad song idea from a national hero. Gather the kids, start a roaring fire in the fireplace, warm up some cocoa and listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

We’re digging into the stacks this week on Episodic Memories. Andrew and Mark uncover unaired WB pilot “Nobody’s Watching,” from “Scrubs” creator Bill Lawrence. The show is part reality show, part sitcom send-up, part pop culture commentary and 100% weird and kinda confusing. And it’s also got SNL’s Taran Killam.

“Can Superman beat the Flash?” “Eh, sure, why not?”

Gotta get goin’ fast, y’all. And this episode is one quick trick, because it’s all about The CW hit series, “The Flash.” Join Andrew and Mark as they dissect this comic book spinoff of “Arrow,” a beloved episode of Episodic Memories. Do you want a show where the main character runs really fast? How about one where a blonde tech wizard hacks a gun somehow?

Continuing the time honored tradition of the fact that we did one last year, Best of the Best and Episodic Memories is back with another spine-chattering Spooktacular scripted radio play thingamabob. This one’s got it all: Weird noises. Yelling. Boner jokes. Everything needed for a truly spooky Spooktacular.

Skullomania is running wild!

As Halloween approaches, spooky happenings begin to occur: Skeletons start appearing. Pumpkin spice exists in everything we eat, drink or listen to. And Episodic Memories tackles the scariest thing of all, the Netflix original series, “Hemlock Grove,” which somehow earned three consecutive seasons. It makes me skin crawl just thinking about it. The three seasons part, not the show itself. Go ahead and listen into our spooooooky play-by-play by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

Gooooood eveeeeeening. A bit of a change of plans again because we hate when people know what are plans are (also, Rubicon wasn’t online). Instead, we’re watching an episode of the classic series “Alfred Hitchcock Presents.” Mark and Andrew look inside the horror that is podcasting and take in the episode “One More Mile to Go,” directed by Hitch himself. We also talk about other garbage like cheating on each other with podcasts and poop monsters. You know, normal stuff. Listen in by clicking here and let us know what you think, if you wouldn’t mind.

Eh, looking back on it, it was pretty funny when he stepped in the poopy.

Shockingly enough, this episode isn’t all about the trials and tribulations of Andrew and Mark’s woebegone childhoods. Instead, the guys are primed to discuss how certain things don’t actually ruin childhoods, like Star Wars movies or bad video games. It’s a small sliver of sunlight in an otherwise bleak podcast.

We interrupt your regular broadcast for this THING! Did someone say “radio play”? Seriously, did someone? Cause we brought one.

It’s Halloween, a time when all sorts of scary, crazy and haunting crap comes out of the woodwork to bug the bejeesus out of people. Best of the Best wants in on this scary bugging crap, so we’ve written a Halloween special in place of this week’s episode. It’s got a devil and two guys that suspiciously sound like Mark and Andrew and all sorts of other otherworldly weirdness! We assume it’ll be up there with the Halloween greats like “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!”, that Garfield episode where he dresses like a pirate and “The Square Pumpkin,” which was on TV the other day and looked crazy as hell. Pumpkins aren’t square. What kind of message is that to send to kids? Anyway, please enjoy this thing.  Click the play button below or download the episode directly right here.

Speaking of enjoying things, when you’re finished getting so totally scared by our podcast (and the amount of time it took to produce the insanity you just heard), why not head over to Amazon and look into Mark Gonzales’ book: Irreplaceable, available on all electronic reading formats now!
