CBMFP 230: Con Gap

After that we discuss a very interesting Forbes article that scientifically determines Superman's skin color and then some more actual comic news in the way of Superman dying again and some Batman shit that you'll hear about. Books covered on this episode:

Trespasser #1 & #2
Prison School Vol. 1

Monster & Wine: Episode 76 - The Joy Of A Crock-Pot

Monster is back at it again. "It" referring to complaining and moaning about yet another trip to the dentist. Sadly, his struggles are not yet over, so the story will continue, and hopefully conclude, by next weeks episode. For now, buckle up for another tale of woe. M&W talk about the USWNT's thrashing of the Colombia team and Monster has some exciting news of his own in regards to the USWNT and his current locale. Wine brings up the rare rainy conditions that the great state of California is currently experiencing and her new found joy with the revelation that is the crock-pot. Random headlines, of the wacky and no-so-wacky variety, wrap up this weeks episode.

Monster & Wine: Episode 75 - The White Episode

No, this one isn't about race but it does have a lot to do with inequality in regards to pay for the USWNT. "The Team" are rightfully suing US Soccer for equal pay but the president of US Soccer refutes their claims. Women being paid less than men for the same job? The hell you say! Monster and Wine discuss, and if you like hearing Wine get heated, this segment is for you! Hamburger Helper's surprisingly good rap mixtape is released and it couldn't be a more clever promotion for a product. Monster reviews Burger King's "Angriest Whopper" and M&W both review Weezer's new "White" album. Some wacky headlines wrap up this passionate episode.

The dynamic duo are back in action and just to show you how much they care, it's a longer-than-usual episode to please your thirsty ears.

CBMFP 226: That's How I Learned About Heroin

Today on the show we're going to talk about a lot of crap. And I'm not going to lie we probably get some it wrong when it comes to what books creators worked on... but don't stress it. We start with some possible redesigns coming to DC comics which leads to a what if of sorts from Kevin. We then talk some Hollywood business and Sally Field's thoughts on Aunt May. Also there's a bunch of creators that got locked down for exclusives that we'll cover. Books covered on this episode:

Monster & Wine: Episode 73 - News You Can Use

Our very own Wine played a gig last week, hittin' them skins, and lived through her sickness to tell the tale. She gives us a little behind-the-scenes action on what went down, what songs were performed and how kids shouldn't be forced to perform Green Day songs. Monster takes a moment to pay his respects to those affected by the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami in Japan. People are still suffering five years later. After a somber moment, an onslaught of news stories ranging from protestors at Trump's Chicago rally, and Chicago's insanely high murder rate, to The Eagles of Death Metal proposing that the terrorist events in Paris were an "inside job." We're crazy topical this week folks!

Monster & Wine: Episode 72 - Under The Weather

Come hell or high water, and even in sickness, we're dedicated to bringing you a new episode. Wine isn't feel quite herself, and she describes how it seemed to have come out of nowhere. That being said, there are rants a plenty as the duo dissect the new USA soccer kit and needless to say, neither are pleased. Monster gives his review of the new 1975 album and they both give their thoughts on the new Macklemore & Ryan Lewis album. Monster gives an update on his dealings with the Department of Revenue and then gives an impassioned speech on the new Ghostbusters trailer and why he thinks it's catching so much flack. A few wild new stories brings this episode to a close.

Monster & Wine: Episode 71 - Basking In The Sun

The day you've all been waiting for is finally here. The end of the Wine Christmas present saga. It's been months of speculating and at one point, Monster had all but given up. However, you'll hear Wine open her belated Christmas present on-air. After the festivities fade, Monster goes into a very heated rant about thieves and the Department of Revenue, which turns out to just be a warm-up for his Capcom, Street Fighter V rant. Listener beware. Some discussion on inclusivity and racism takes place. Monster gives a quick review for the Taco Bell Breakfast Quesalupa and M&W give two TV show recommendations/reviews for 11/22/63 and The People v. O.J. Simpson. A little bit of wacky news and that's game.set.match.
