A Necessary Evil is described as ''an evil that someone believes must be done or accepted because it is necessary to achieve a better outcome''. With that said, your hosts, Jack, Alex and Ryan, are here to give you our somewhat abnormal but still necessary opinions. If you're someone who loves to rant and bicker for really no reason at all, then this is the place for you. We talk about all things pop-culture from movies, video games, TV. Shows etc, and give you something to think about. Like is it really worth it to get that high grade gasoline for an extra 25 cents a gallon? We upload every Sunday when possible. (Content warning) This is not for children under the age of 16, this podcast will include the following: Swearing (sometimes excessive and always intentional, and its mostly from Ryan)
Yeah that's right, you read the title. That's how we've decided to come back after a couple weeks off (cough cough Alex's fault cough cough). Hope you had fun basting your turkeys, cuz we're about to get based.
After insisting that we wouldn't see Eternals, Alex went on his own, and then Jack and Ryan were both bored and decided to see it before the podcast. The movie did nothing to end our boredom, however. If anything, it increased it. Please enjoy our disappointment.
Boba Fett? Boba Fett? Where? Also Guardians of the Galaxy is a great game.
We took 2 weeks off and then I uploaded this late. It is what it is. Taking another week off cuz schedules don't line up to record, so we'll see you in 2 weeks (or technically a week and a few days since this is so late).
Venommmmmm, Carnaggggggeeee, venom venommmm (see how good my eminem impression is?) Also we saw the 35th anniversary of Transformers 1986. But do not forget the Roph Biest. Join the Cleveland Crevice Gang (CCG), and accept the Röf Biiste into your heart!
Do you get grossed out by hearing people chew? If yes, you're a total wimp, and can skip the first minute of the podcast. What If sucked, so we talked about Stargirl and wrasslin.' Skittles taste gooood mmmmmmm skittles mmmm.
In this longer than usual episode, the gang is in a wrestling mood, and discusses in depth the recent AEW pay-per-view, All Out. Afterwards, we talk about all of the recent Playstation reveals, and our future gaming plans. Let's just say, it's nice to own a PS5.
Imagine, if you will, a stereotypical Necessary Evil Episode. Ryan argues with everybody, and the discussion of one topic goes on for far too long. But wait, this time it happens with 2 topics! Most of the episode we argue about Onlyfans though. Maybe we should make one? Maybe you want to get that image out of your head. A perfect distraction would be to listen to the actual podcast. And tell your friends, don't forget to do that.
This week the gang had a lot more to talk about (and at least I got this out on the right day). From CM Punk's Return, to Marvel What If and Spider-Man, even the Witcher movie and Stargirl, this podcast is jam-packed with topics. The only problem is we're on a timer, and the podcast needed to end on time so that we could watch this week's AEW Rampage.
Jack briefly talks about Marvel What If, but the rest of us still hadn't watched it yet. It's another slow week, but we got Stargirl and some other random BS as well. The next podcast will be up on time, I swear!
Yeah I uploaded the podcast late again, even later than last week. Will it be on time this week? who knows. I was gonna try to make a pun using Def Leppard's "Too Late For Love" since the podcast is late, but honestly it has no connection to the situation. Maybe something like "Too late, too late, too late, too late to upload." I don't, it just doesn't work. But Pyromania is a BANGER of an album, and you should go listen to it.
A new guest has arrived this week, as we are joined by the infamous Austin! Besides some initial Bad Batch discussion, the regular gang discusses the new Suicide Squad movie, whilst trying not to spoil too much for Austin. Of course a guest doesn't stop us from devolving into the usual nonsense, but Austin is a nice change of pace for the Necessary Evil weekly discussion.
It's official, Necessary Evil is going woke! We even got our very first diversity hire (even though he sounds as white as the rest of us). The updated gang covers a range of topics, from Bad Batch to D&D, we have all of the usual crap. Lorenzo fits in within the group seamlessly, and that Evil is most certainly Necessary!
We missed another week AND this episode is being uploaded a day late. Deal with it. We went to Smackdown this past weekend, and Alex screwed up big time. Listen to the podcast for that story, as well as the other usual crap on our minds.
This shorter episode takes place right before we leave for D&D (RIP Bronco), but please enjoy our usual discussion on Loki and The Bad Batch. The gang also talks about the recent movie Black Widow, as well as the trailer for The Witcher Season 2.
After a hiatus of 2 weeks, the gang returns in full form, with the expected arguments and barking dog. After an incredibly brief recap of Loki and Bad Batch, the gang argues about mantles for superheroes, and ends with a brief discussion about recent games and the Slave I controversy.
Alas, the gang has broken their streak of good intros, due to the laziness of Jack. This week, all you have to look forward to is a breakdown of an excellent episode of Bad Batch, some Loki, and a brief discussion of E3 announcements (though very few caught our attention).
This week, the gang starts with an enlightening conversation on the crevices some of us have to deal with. We then delve into an excellent episode of Bad Batch, argue about Obi-wan, and talk about the new series "Loki." A return to form to be sure, this episode shouldn't be missed!
In this thrilling episode of your least favorite podcast, Jack returns to us, but with a curse. His dog is in the building, and she interrupts us multiple times, whilst we frantically argue over Paw Patrol, and shit on the worst episode of Bad Batch. We dedicate this podcast to the anniversary of the Killdozer, may his spirit live on in us all.
The gang's "Plan C member " couldn't make it to this week's podcast, so you're stuck with the glue and the fat guy. But the hidden gem is that we decided to make a creative intro for once. Enjoy this week's Bad Batch recap, and listen as Alex and Ryan talk about wrestling and music without Jack telling us to talk about something else because "it's not worth talking about."
The gang talks about absolutely nothing for an hour straight.
Bad Batch is out, Let's goooo....This week, our most exquisite triumvirate are slowly losing our sanity. Influenced by Dababy memes and a certain Jedi from the first episode of the Bad Batch, the gang fervently talks about the week in Star Wars.
In this episode, the gang starts talking about the recently finished Season 1 of Invincible, and then has to pad for time, because of our boring lives. In the last moments, we find our second wind, and end with the high note of "Good Liquid Shits."
After another long hiatus, the heroes whom you look up to most have returned. With new music, a whole list of topics, and a special 2-hour return episode, The Necessary Evil crew is back full time. Fresh after watching the new Mortal Kombat movie, we figured a longer episode was worth giving to the few of you who actually still listen to us. That, is our Necessary Evil!
Due to a variety of personal reasons and screwups, we've had to be on hiatus for a while. This Season 2 Finale was recorded back on January 29th, and we haven't been able to release it until now unfortunately. Enjoy our early ramblings about Godzilla VS. Kong, as well as the usual Star Wars crap. Thank you for listening, and look out for Season 3, coming soon!
In this week's episode, our favorite trio is once again forced to talk about the random bullshit our minds. The only really noteworthy thing to talk about is another failed attempt to secure a PS5. Our disappointment is immeasurable and our day is ruined.
In the first episode of the new year, the gang doesn't really have much news to talk about. Instead we go into random tirades about different topics in our lives. The only thing missing is one of our usual arguments.
In the final episode recorded during 2020, the gang is a man down, but copes by having a guest. We go in depth on our thoughts about Wonder Woman '84, as well as revisit our opinions on Cyberpunk 2077, now that's been out for some time.
In this extended episode, the boys cover the exciting season finale of The Mandalorian (who would've guessed?). Dissecting every detail, and gushing at the amazing job John Favrou and Dave Filoni have done, the gang decides to record for much longer than usual. We close with a short discussion on Cyberpunk 2077, and our opinions on the state of the game 1 week after its launch.
In the second episode of "After Credits," the gang goes over everything they missed in this week's more Star Wars-centric podcast. Get ready to hear our predictable opinions on the Marvel announcements, Game Awards, and Cyberpunk 2077!
After a long drought in topics for the crew, we finally stuff to talk about besides Mando. But surprise surprise, it's just more Star Wars. The gang goes all in for Disney's announcements of new shows, but if you want to hear other topics, check out the second episode of 'After Credits,' coming on Wednesday!
On this week's episode, the gang breaks down another episode of "The Mandalorian" (shocker). After ogling over the return of a classic character, the gang makes of fun DC's most recent comic train-wreck, before going back to the usual banter.
In this week's daring episode, all we talk about is the Mandalorian. Seriously, that's it. Maybe a couple of side jokes, but Ahsoka made us focus on Mando. What more could you ask for?
On the very first edition of Necessary Evil After Credits, the gang continue where they left off in Episode 12. The group starts off with the recent "Night City Wire," then finishes discussing a few other topics that didn't fit in the regular podcast.
This week's podcast starts with the usual Mando recap, and the rest of the time sees the gang discussing the nominees for 2020's Game Awards. But our favorite trio isn't able to finish discussing all they have for today, so watch out for the very first Necessary Evil After Credits!
All seems well as the gang starts off by recounting this week's episode of The Mandalorian. But then, tragedy strikes, as an argument about Attack Of The Clones comes seemingly out of nowhere, and lasts for most of the episode. When all is calmed, the boys finish by briefly talking about their experiences with Assassin's Creed: Valhalla and Spider-Man: Miles Morales so far.
The group Starts off already at each other's throats, since there was plenty of arguing before the podcast even started. They quickly move on to The Mandalorian, Miles Morales, and some personal D&D plans. As always, the whole episode is filled with bullshit.
The Season Premiere of The Mandalorian completely blew us away, so we talked about Star Wars for the first half of the podcast. The rest was filled with the usual random nonsense that this trio has become accustomed to releasing.
"The gang starts off by ogling over Doom Eternal's first DLC, then discussing Gameinformer's news about Spider-Man: Miles Morales. After taking a detour to talk about music, the trio finishes by relapsing on Star Wars.
With atmosphere as dead as Van Halen (RIP a true Legend), the boys resort to talking about their boring week. Finally, some entertainment Is provided with a top 5 list of the most annoying people we know...oh boy.
The outrage against Mileena's inclusion as DLC for Mortal Kombat 11 was so powerful that It shattered our system. But the gang fights back against the tech Issues, for the season finale of "The Boys" must be discussed.
The Boys talk about the latest episode of The Boys, before taking a detour to talk about Bethesda and our nostalgia for Dragon Age.
On this episode, The Boys are down a man, but their salt has increased tenfold. The botched pre-orders for the PS5 have left us scarred and deformed, and we will not only complain about that, but also the disappointment that is New Mutants. Also Jack won't stop sniffling.
Update: By the time this episode is aired, Alex has seen Cuties, and our opinions on the movie haven't changed."Cuties" is a 2020 pedophile film that the gang has no interest in promoting, and every intent on destroying. In other news: Playstation is still better than Xbox, The Oscars are a corporate machine, Nazi's still suck, and water is wet.
Fresh off of last week's mayhem, the boys are back with a much calmer episode. This time everyone can agree on one thing: Satanists are better than Nazis. Oh, and the new Mulan movie sucks.
In the highly anticipated return of your favorite podcast, Ryan and Jack argue about Lex Luthor for an hour, while Alex's sanity and patience progressively get worse.Disclaimer: This podcast is not for anyone under the age of 16.
The gang rallies against the Coronavirus for a hot minute before discussing the recent DC film, Superman Red Son, and Wonder Woman leaks...oh and Black Widow's there too.
This week the gang loses all trail of focus and is quite literally doomed to talk about Doom (and some other games you've probably heard of), winging it from start to finish.
Jack, Alex, and Ryan talk about DC stuff again, sucking off Jack Kirby for 45 minutes. We take a brief look at the superheroes who have punched Hitler and we promise to talk about something else next time.
Alex, Jack, and Ryan start a new podcast where they talk about Harley Quinn...and Harley Quinn. There are a couple other movies and games but I'll let you listen and figure that out for yourself.
