Mass shootings, Obi Wan and some other random subjects for this week. Thanks for listening!
If you're still with us, thank you. There is a lot to catch up on. Unfortunately, no politics this week, it's catch up on entertainment time. There's a song at the end of the show that is there only as an instructional guide for those times when you find yourself talking to conservatives, the QOP, Qanon, pro-lifers and anyone else that sucks.
Trick or Treat, you decide… this week we're giving you two episodes in one. It's been a rough month and I had an unreleased episode sitting on my computer, so I combined it with this newly recorded episode. Dune, Ted Lasso, The West Wing, …What If?, movie critics, Foundation and a lot more. Hope you enjoy. Sorry for the impromptu hiatus. We have an online version of our “Great American Movie Challenge” and you're invited! https://www.facebook.com/events/1017720099063666?ref=newsfeed
Two episodes in one! Last time we recorded, there were internet issues, so I saved that to add to the next time we recorded. Bad Batch, COVID, What If…? and a whole lot more.
Vaccinations, COVID, The Bad Batch, traitors, the Olympics, insurrectionists and the G.O.P.. Get vaccinated, dummies.
This week, vaccinations, fires, Loki, a right wing gathering in MA and a whole lot more. Get vaccinated.
This week, we go over The Bad Batch, we discuss a little bit about the plot of Loki, but mostly speculate who will show up in the last episode, we don't talk Black Widow - that will be next week and as usual, we jump from subject to subject. Frank has a web show - Ticket Stubs and Popcorn - check it out! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRo8PwnNHpJnU1O9LwCbl_Q
Loki, Bad Batch, Resistance, heat waves, spaceship names, DC movies and more. Don't forget Frank's show, Ticket Stubs and Popcorn. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRo8PwnNHpJnU1O9LwCbl_Q
After a week or so of Frank being away from the studio, we are back talking about the premier of Loki and the follow up episode, as well as getting up to date on Star Wars: The Bad Batch. A bit more off topic things thrown in round out another episode. Also, check out the quality difference in Frank's voice this week. Turns out... it wasn't Chris' fault!

While trying to make the audio better, Chris somehow made Frank sound a little bit worse. It sounded better live is no excuse, but I didn't want to completely throw out the recording. Next week will be better. This week, we are all movies and T.V. starting with some stuff Frank watched. From there, we talk about Bad Batch, for some reason, Mad About You and a bunch of other shows and movies. Check out Frank's show, Ticket Stubs and Popcorn on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRo8PwnNHpJnU1O9LwCbl_Q
This episode was recorded Sunday, May 30th, 2021. At that time, it was raining in Massachusetts and we talk about how funny that is. We also talk Star Wars Bad Batch a little and then hit a number of other topics until we get tired of talking to each other. Check out Ticket Stubs and Popcorn https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRo8PwnNHpJnU1O9LwCbl_Q
This episode covers topics like, Star Wars - The Bad Batch, Tenet, police construction details, non-binary people and how people react to them, COVID-19, police violence, plus so much more that I forgot we talked about since we recorded the episode.
First off, did you see the Apple Watch bands that cost $500?!! In this episode, we talk about the first two episodes of Star Wars: The Bad Batch. After that, a few random things and we close out with reviewing Rolling Stone's Top 100 Sit-coms of all Time. Next week Frank will discuss Tenent while Chris asks questions because he will not watch it. Chris talks about the Batman: No Man's Land audio drama which Frank has not listened to. Should be fun. Check out Frank's web show, Ticket Stubs and Popcorn on YouTube. Bill has an album review show you need to subscribe to - Front 2 Back on Spotify.
We touch on a lot of things this week, Qanon, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Mortal Kombat, Rudy Giuliani's kid, police shootings, the Oscars, and a bunch of other stuff too. Show Frank and friend of the show, Peter some love, check out "Ticket Stubs and Popcorn."
This week, a little bit about why the break in shows, Frank's cross country drive, some Falcon and Winter Soldier, Matt Gaetz, MTG's Anglo-Saxon crap, a pillow man's attempt at a free speech social platform, Daunte Wright, Adam Toledo, Q: Into the Storm, and how Derek Chauvin better be found guilty or else we're going to see the United States burn, and rightly so.
In this week's episode, we discuss how not to behave with your kid at the San Diego Zoo, as well as Zack Snyder's Justice League, Falcon and the Winter Soldier and The Good Place.
This week, Franks is off on a trip so I have a fill in guest host. We talk about the Pope's announcement regarding the Church's refusal to bless same sex marriages, wearing masks, going back to school full time, Raya and the Last Dragon and WandaVision. Also, there is some actual for-real helpful advice for getting a vaccine appointment at CVS.
This week, the end of WandaVision, and from there, basically a stream of consciousness show. Here's the link to the show that Frank keeps going on about. Please check it out and shut him up! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRo8PwnNHpJnU1O9LwCbl_Q/videos
This week, a whole lot of different subjects, golden idols, WandaVision, Governors wanting to open schools sooner that they probably should, vaccine rollout failures, and a whole lot more.
Gina Carano, Texas, Ted Cruz, Rush Limbaugh, Wanda, Vision, Agnes, Darcy, Frank, Dennis, Mac, Charlie, Dee, AOC, and more on this week's show.

This week, Louie Gomert, Rand Paul, Marjorie Talyor Greene and why has the GOP... sorry, the QOP gone crazy?

Check out Frank's show, Ticket Stubs and Popcorn https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRo8PwnNHpJnU1O9LwCbl_Q Wear your damn mask!
This week, more WandaVision, plus a lot of talk about how far right and into Q conspiracy theories the GOP has and is going. Can't wait to see how bad it gets.
This episode has spoiler talk about WandaVision as well as how boring press briefings are now. Netflix claimed Disney+ doesn't have a Bridgerton type show and how they seem to be in denial. Also, Chris chokes on his coffee and Frank gets a call from the 1970s. Check out Frank's webshow, Ticket Stubs and Popcorn. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pE8nViFci38
This week, we discuss the influx of most likely, misinformed people, to the Facebook group. From there, we talk about COVID, equal rights, the terrorist attack on the Capitol, conspirators and traitors in the Senate and Congress and what should be done with them. We finish off with a light - but spoiler filled all over the place discussion of the first two episodes of WandaVision. Check out Frank's webshow, Ticket Stubs and Popcorn https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRo8PwnNHpJnU1O9LwCbl_Q
What a week! The Senate was flipped, Biden was confirmed and the right wing nut cases flipped OUT! Obviously, we focus on sedition, treason and terrorism on this week's show. We also touch on captioning and the old Chevy Chase, Bill Murray feud. There's more sprinkled in as well, like we always do. Check out Franks webshow, Ticket Stubs and Popcorn -- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRo8PwnNHpJnU1O9LwCbl_Q
In the last episode of the year, we talk about what we've watched, including Wonder Woman 1984 as well as some other movies and TV. We dip shortly into the insanity of the US Senate before the end but not before we talk about a bunch of random stuff in between. Hope you have a Happy New Year, and remember as Howard Jones taught us - Things can only get better.
This episode, we discuss the season finale of The Mandalorian. It is totally spoiler filled, so be warned. We also theorize a bit about what's coming next. After that we talk a bit about pronouns and being supportive.
This week, we talk about the penultimate episode of this season's Mandalorian. We go over a bunch of the Disney announcements and discuss what we hope will come out of them. As usual, we talk a bit of politics and personal stuff as well. Please check out Frank's new webshow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnckUm5APDM
Little delay on this week's episode, due to sickness. We talk Mandalorian and where it could be going from last weeks events, as well as a bunch of other things. So, all in all, a normal episode. Check out this link to Frank's new project, Ticket Stubs and Popcorn https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOuYFH7w2A8&t=6s
This week is a spoiler filled discussion of The Mandalorian chapters 12 and 13. This now brings us up to date on all episodes as of November 27th. There is a lot of information and a lot of setup for future episodes or seasons in these last few episodes. We talk story, spoilers, characters, Easter Eggs and do a bit of speculation on where the show could be headed. Also included in this episode, another update from Frank about his cross country adventure and a quick bit about the ongoing political idiocy Trump is performing. The closing segment is a pitch meeting about The New Mutants.
This week, we talk about last week's episode of The Mandalorian, Frank's westward adventure and a number of other things. Side note, a little over 40 minutes were edited out due to Chris talking about something he should wait longer to talk about. Apparently, he forgot he was recording a show? Hopefully at some point, we will work the cut audio back into a future show.
This week, no one still knows what episode it is, we have some post election conversation, Chapter 10 - aka season 2 episode 2 of the Mandalorian discussion, and a lot about Frank's trek west. There's more than that of course. Hope you enjoy. We end the show with a song that Frank talks about at the end of the episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-DU51Kty90
In this episode, we talk about episode 1, season 2 aka Chapter 9 of the Mandalorian. After that, we talk a bit about the election and some thanks to listeners. So far, as of November 5th, things are looking better. Everybody hang in there.
On this episode, we talk about the almost 4 inches of snow that fell on October 30th, COVID, cancelling Halloween, the election, not about the Mandalorian - Frank was too busy to watch chapter nine before we recorded. There's a lot more all in just over an hour. Be safe, wear a mask, and hopefully we'll all feel a bit better before we record the next episode.
Frank correctly guesses the episode number, we discuss the debate, the election and how can people still be undecided at this point. We also talk about The Boys, if reincarnation was real, what animal would you like to come back as and a few other odds and ends. areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com
This week, Chris still thinks it's episode 426 and Frank is more than halfway through season 1 of The Boys. We also welcome the return of an old frenemy. areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com
Another week, another show. More about our Super-spreader-in-Chief, another debate that happened and one that didn't, movies and TV. Due to some technical difficulties and other issues, this episode is a bit late. Regardless, here it is. Enjoy.
Literally hours after we recorded, Trump announces he has Covid-19. Whether that ends up being true or not remains to be seen. In the meantime, we talk about the debate, a tiny bit of The Boys - Frank saw an episode WELL into season 2 with no context. We jump from topic to topic this week, we hope you enjoy. Closing audio is from Ryan George and Julie Nolke https://www.youtube.com/user/julienolke https://www.youtube.com/user/RyGeor Wear your mask!
This week, Breonna Taylor, Trump, post election problems, scammers, businesses that helped in their own demise, Wanda Vision, The SCP Foundation, and more. Our ending segment is from The Volgun: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcmEL8JoDBE25gvCFkrqhcw
This episode was recorded before we learned of the passing of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Instead, we talk ethnic cleansing, movies, T.V. Gina Carano, schools opening and Pueblo Colorado. Hope you enjoy. sreyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com
The Nobel peace prize, Bob Woodward, Rise of Skywalker, some reassurance from our Norwegian friends, The Mandalorian and Obi Wan shows, Cobra Kai and a little bit about Amazon's The Boys. We end with audio of Screen Rant's pitch meeting for Rise of Skywalker. Check them out on YouTube if you're not familiar. They can criticize a movie while keeping it light and fun. areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com
This week, Frank wraps up his re-watch of BBT, there's a surprise fence, we talk a tiny bit about Star Trek Lower Decks, a bit about Trump, some about a name Chris' daughter made up, and a bunch more relevant and irrelevant stuff that can't be remembered right now because I didn't take notes and I'm not going back to get a list of topics. Hope you enjoy. areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com
A day late but zero dollars short, this week we talk about losing a good man, Trump, home repairs and the turgid Sturgis Corona convention. Of course there's more thrown in for good measure, like movies and TV talk. Stay safe, wear your masks. areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com
This week, Sturgis becomes a hotspot, masks are not being worn, people are tired of the virus, so they are ignoring the dangers, we end the show with something extremely rare for us... an outtake, I adjusted Frank's levels so he sounds more full and less trapped in a tin can, and so much more. Write us and answer our question of the week - What movie would make it impossible to not see in the theater? Post your answer in our facebook group, or write us at areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com
Another week, another bunch of ratlickers not wearing masks, going to Sturgis, Walmart, and wanting to open schools and movie theaters. It's not going to end well, is it? Contact us at areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com and I promise I'll check the account before we record next week!
This week, we talk about movie theater popcorn, opening schools, the NRA, that Axios interview, just how dumb our president is, and much more. send email to areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com
This week, we talk about house upgrades, instagram accounts, people who have come down with Covid-19, the Emmy nominations, Chris' really bad Thursday, dogs running loose, and a whole bunch of other stuff. Write us at areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com
This week, Chris and Frank are completely exhausted by all the bull crap going on in the world. Listen in and see if you share their attitude. Send email or voice mail to areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com - hopefully we'll remember to check it before we record!
This week, we talk about dog walking etiquette, going back to school, morons in the news, and what we're watching. As usual, there are a lot of asides and random thoughts thrown in. email us at areyouserioupodcast@gmail.com
