A radio style podcast that touches on Movies, TV, Music, News, Sports and Pop Culture in general, with recurring bits such as Jim's Scene that Movie, Fall Activities Jim and It Bothers Jim.
Heel Jim is here and he is pretty pleased with himself. Jim salutes himself for being a bigger man, looks forward to the Hulkster's trainwreck comeback and tries to figure out if a Brazilian model full Ken. It's story time and this time it's all about Jim's first fight in the last 15 years, and it happened Friday night at the Eagles v Patriots game. You don't want to miss this one and the life shattering details that follow.
Jim is finally back and he is creeped out by guys and their wrestling action figures and Her. The sky is bluer, the breeze is warmer...for all of about 2 minutes until it's back to the negativity of Jim's Sox fandom. Did you take Jim's advice this summer for movies? He hopes so as he pats himself on the back for nailing another great call. Guardians of the Galaxy? Yeah it's good. Oh and FXX is a fraud and it's about time they acknowledged it.
Jim is back and celebrating his super genius. There are some things going on in World of War craft that involve the term Hyper-Sexualized and Orcs. 9 year olds are marrying 62 year olds and that's not even one of the top 3 strangest parts of the story. The Red Sox are still done, adjust your fake media optimism accordingly. Butt pads guys. Butt pads. There are amazing things and then there is Mr Belding and this. Buckle up guys, it's time for the desecration of your childhood and it's not going to be pretty.
Fresh off a trip to Vermont Jim is back and he has found the perfect way to tie a room together. The DMV delivers a crushing blow to Jim's life with the beautiful people and a major break through for people who date Canadians. It's the rest of last week's would you rather and James Franco's latest affront against humanity. They are making a new Purge movie and Jim can't believe how they topped the original. Finally, Jim saw a Llama and it didn't go well for him, but it did lead to a brand new Podlast Top 5.
Jim is back and he is distracted and off track before the show even gets going. He's getting better with age but the wife is attacking his girlish figure. Don't ever die Jerry Jones and Jim shares a touching story from his childhood. Would you rather is back and Jim asks for listener opinion on his fantasy prowess. It's a sad time here at Podlast as it's possibly time to retire a favorite...or is it? That's up to the listeners to decide. Finally, Jim tried once again to land his dream job of reading sports headlines on the radio and has the audio to prove it.
Jim is back and he has finally discovered his purpose in life and couldn't be more excited. A former NASA employee wants to build a 70' tall robot and you'll never in a million years guess what it does. No seriously, you will NEVER guess. A mom has a forward thinking plan to prevent her kids from being stolen, even if the authorities deem it 'abuse'. Chris has committed a truly terrible faux pas and James Franco is going to kill us all. It's time for reader emails and the worst ken doll rip off sends Jim off on a rant. Go ninja, go ninja go as it's the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Michael Bay style so you know it's going to be terrible.
Jim is back and he is playing injured with a case of the moonshines while telling everyone about one of his dreams and what he'd rather do than meet The Rock. Jim finds the start of the "choking on my own outrage" line and not surprisingly it's filled with douche bags. The Red Sox stink people, it's OK to admit it and Michael Bay is only days away from resurrecting Jim's childhood....so he can kill it again.
Jim is back and he realizes that you don't get a kudos when you leave your car to threaten someone...when there is no one there to stop your threats from being carried out. Sometimes a man just wants to have the sex with a pool raft. Jim salutes the greatest TV ever and is responsible for the death of the worlds oldest man. Dating sites broken down by MLB teams is an awful idea, one so bad even Canada was out. Dentist? Nah, not talking about that. Toys don't always come out as equals and Jim's Scene that movie and it begs the question, How do you not find her???
Jim is back and with the assistance of modern chemistry he is pressing on through a dental issue. Did Jim really just Kudos that? Even he can't believe it. Sometimes when your own parent won't give you a whooping, someone else's drunk dad will. Ghostbusters & Major League are getting kudos...and making Jim feel old at the same time. Hey RBI baseball, you need to hurry up. Jim takes a trip down memory lane that has him feeling like a woman, if you hated the it's a small world theme, ummm. Sorry. Ronaldo might miss the World Cup and this guy claims to know why. Candles? Check. Condoms? Check. Contract? Huh? Jim's Scene that movie and it's Big Ass Spider!
Jim is back and he is saluting himself for still being able to amaze the wife and the girl at Stop & Shop who put the Memorable in Memorial Day. Jim has a Kardashian thought, as much as he doesn't want it, and has an issue with Oprah and her irresponsible medical school. There are bad ideas and then there is this. Sorry. Did you hear the Red Sox resigned Stephen Drew? Well Jim did and let's just say he isn't handling it well. Finally we go Top 5 with the Top 5 things that should be easier than they are.
Jim is back and it's time to clean out the leftovers of episodes past, we learn why Jim really hates the med student who tried to sell her virginity and then find out who is set to benefit the most from that story. There is a chance you won't hear episode 90 and it's clearly this guys fault. Jim tells the sad tale of a man who wanted a real life and the video game nerds who fire bombed his dream. We finish the book list leftovers from last week's inaugural Podlast Book Club, Jim's seen a couple movies and has an idea for the best M Night Shyamalan movie twist ever and finally it's top 5 time as Jim helps in the search for Casey Kasem with the top 5 places he could be.
Jim is back and he's saluting the bird salute, scooter chases and the finding of a ship that everyone knows how to rhyme it but not so much that it was found. He's sorry, but your pizza isn't famous. Infamous maybe, but definitely not famous. It's the first ever edition of the Podlast Book Club and boy does Jim have a couple of recommendations for you. Have you ever seen Insidious 2? Have you ever seen Insidious 2 on BEER MAN? Jim did and you get to live the experience in the first ever Jim's (Drunkenly) Scene That Movie!
Jim is back and he is saluting Mom's everywhere...but mostly his. He celebrates a guy for not being dead, Tommy Lasorda for being belligerent and calls out a girl for not having high enough goals. Jim starts to put the pieces together for Samuel L Jackson's next blockbuster, involving the world's first Swiss villain and the catch phrase"I'm tired of these Mother Flowing Snow globes, on this Mother flowing Plane!". Jim is really sad for the youth of America, feels vindicated for his dislike of Brown University students and has a lot of thoughts on society.
The summer movie season is about to start and Podlast has you covered with it's 2nd Annual Summer Blockbuster Guide. Jim goes through all the must see and must not see movies of the summer, breaking them all down like only he can. Jim gives his pick for the best movie of the summer no one will see while tackling movies such as Spiderman, Hercules, Planes 2, 22 Jump St and more. Don't head to movies before checking out this guide.
Jim is back and he is DEMANDING user interaction! Xbox One is very confused by Jim's desire to watch NESN but Jim thinks it would be way worse if it were Apple at the helm. The world we live in forces news outlets to cite some very odd sources and hold onto your scales, Jim stumbled upon 2 very frank and honest years worth of his weight tracking. Did you know Jim started to write a sitcom? Well hold onto your hats for the reading of his entire script! Finally, Pop Quiz, Jim comes across the quest of one man to own every copy of the 1994 VHS classic....SPEED. What do you do? WHAT DO YOU DO?? All that plus awful intro music week on a fired up Podlast.
Jim is back and he is patting himself on the back for workouts and "Pulitzer" word play. He fires a shot at Chris' fantasy team and unveils this week's "Dumb(ell) Sh!t of the week". Some pets need to be saved, even if they aren't abused. We find out what has more Bibles, church or a $6/hour motel. Jim does half of his Jesus requirement for the year and then it's Jim & the wife's trip to the 2014 Boston Marathon.
This week we take a break from the usual idiocy and look ahead to Tuesday's 1st Anniversary of the Boston Marathon Bombings by looking back to where we were at this time last year. Scared, confused, questioning, unsure could all be used to describe the mood in Boston, now a year later it's important to remember where we were and how we got here, so let's take a trip back as we replay episode 33 - #BostonStrong in it's entirety. See you next week guys!
Jim is back and hold on to your hats...so is Chris. The guys talk the Fenway Opener, Wrestlemania, Car shopping, Fantasy trades that inspire awful Liam Neeson impressions and Jim uncovers a Jean Claude Van Gem!
Jim is back and he is dealing with major changes, the always present threat of scams and his own hypocrisy. Lady, what are you feeding this kid? Somethings that have been seen, just can't be unseen and this one haunts Jim's dreams and his waking hours. Attention everyone, the S.I. Clown MIGHT be a hoax and Jim has a question that he needs answers to NOW!! Did you know there is a gym that has member devotion that would make Cross Fit jealous? Well there is and the answer might surprise you. World, Jim needs to talk to you about this whole #CancelColbert thing. Feeling offended? Jim has the answer in the form of his brand new "Offended Flow Chart*". *Warning: The Offended Flowchart, may offend. It's the WWE Gem of the Week, email style and Jim's Scene that Movie and that movie is Divergent.
Jim is back and so is Chris. The guys talk the art of tanking and how the 76ers are just another misunderstood genius, a good death, why Jim's fantasy team is like a crime scene and applaud a good death. Two and a half men is down one and a half men and Jim can't believe this isn't a bigger deal, before predicting how Angus T Jones will make his triumphant acting comeback. Who ya gonna call? Better make it the Marines if you're trying to stop the impending disaster that is Ghostbusters 3 and Chris' final word never ends.
Jim is back and saluting a world record that may never be broken, honoring the few great Americans who passed this week and pointing out why Boston College girls are the worst. There are very specific rules for being treated like a person and this unholy triumvirate is not adhering to them. The WWE Network continues it's treasure trove of gold, Jim got he and the wife into a press screening of the new Muppets movie and All Right, all right, all right it's the Dallas Buyers Club.
Jim is back and he has found the one thing that he wants more than anything else in the world and boy does he have ideas for it. Michael Bay is back to drop another deuce on theaters, Jim tells the story of why you can eat fish but not meat on Fridays during lent and then gives you everything you need to know about spring & summer fashion guys. Jim continues his dive into the WWE Network and found something so amazing, it's like a fine piece of art. Jim takes a second, or 4 minutes, to celebrate the anniversary of a dream as well as the coming baseball season with a look back.
Jim is back and he's paying tribute to Harold Ramis, the man responsible for some of his all time favorite movies. Jim did something amazing as always, that turned out to be kind of unamazing. The US looks to regain a title from Mexico and they are doing it by ripping them off, there are great ideas and then there are GREAT ideas and this one is genius. Seriously New Orleans, what the F are you guys doing down there with your mascots and Jim takes people to task who need a disclaimer on the movie portrayal of a story that wasn't real to let people know that the manner in which it was told...wasn't accurate. Jim tried to make up with the Red Sox, but they wouldn't let him. It's uber nerd time and then Jim stumbles upon the greatest aspect of the new WWE Network...old wrestler promos. I'm pretty sure you would know if those kids saw that guy masturbating. Protesters, DAMN! Harold Ramis was one of the greats and it's the Top 5 things that used to be awesome, until people ruined them.
Jim is back and he is praising the best marketing ploy of all time, takes a trip down memory lane at the mention of Piggly Wiggly, salutes a mom who just isn't going to take it anymore even if she ends up living in a house made of t-shirts and admonishes those who do rich incorrectly. Why virtual love with a video game is so wrong and yet might be the best hope for humanity. Ladies, Jim's got your back as it's time to debunk more awful advice about men in regards to 'trends' that real men wouldn't know anything about in the first place. Have an extra testicle hanging around and a dream? This guy does and finally Yahoo answers posters really just need a hug...and possibly a restraining order.
Jim is back and he does the impossible during the ENTIRE NBA Slam Dunk Contest, says hello to new listeners and it's hats off to Michael Sam with an eye on where this will hopefully lead us. Barbie is a communist and Jim salutes his favorite suicide bomber. A very concerned lady tries to wake America up to a HUGE PLOY and then gives her take on some really important issues. People who claim to care about the Olympics are the worst...at least for another couple of months before the true worst posers show up. Jim harkens back to episodes of old (last week) and answers the question of how much Valentine's Day love you can get in the paper for $25, while alerting his single male listeners to a lethal crazy threat. TLC unleashes a new kind of show that's "Train wreck good" and it's Jim's Top 5 Ways to die that would really piss him off.
Jim is back and he's talking about how he may run into a close cousin of Fall Activities Jim this weekend, technology is trying to make sex even more awkward and kill video gamers. Jim keeps pleading, but these people just refuse to listen. The 7 biggest bitches become 6 but then 7 again and they are all just really bad people. Jim once again tries to help women with some sound guy advice before pulling on the loose end of every action movie plot ever. Finally, it's time to say good bye to Breaking Bad (in a 100% spoiler free way) and somehow this sends Jim off on a detailed description of exactly how How I Met Your Mother should end before he comes up with his perfect post Breaking Bad spin off show.
Jim is back and he's returned from a night out for beers with the wife and simply wants to know...what in the ever living hell is Caturday? Jim was so right his whole life and you guys were all wrong, CM Punk could certainly use a break and did you know people are writing books about monsters taking liberties with young ladies? Jim lets you in on a website that actually is pretty awesome in a good way and another that is awesome in a totally different way. Also, Caturday.
Jim is back and it's the somewhat anticipated, long time coming, return of Chris. They talk more people trying to become dolls and then trolls Chris with some Manning accomplishments. The Super Bowl is next week and that means two things, Chris mourning a Patriots AFC title game loss and prop bets, lots of prop bets. The guys are going to watch the Royal Rumble later tonight so it's primer time.
Jim is back and he is talking Richard Sherman, racy mannequins and why we need to stop killing mythical creatures. Then Jim turns to the listeners to get a ruling on his theory as to why Fenway is now involved in the worlds oldest profession, newly weds are going to scar their kids for life and Jim follows up with his Bigfoot guy to get the low down on last week's story of the man who shot bigfoot. Jim's scene that movie and that movie is Mama and makes no sense and then it's time to head over to Yahoo and dish out some answers.
Jim is back and he is pimpin the palatial Podlast basement, talking about what kind of a guy shoots bigfoot, box office records and a true xbox innovator. Then it's time to talk about Living Dolls. Jim lets you know exactly how he thinks the first one came about and how this lifestyle will help police. He also seriously suggests a name change for an unfortunate group. Finally it's movie time as Jim gives his thoughts on both The Wolf of Wall St and Anchorman 2 in a spoiler free Jim's Scene that Movie.
Jim is back and he is talking how different people handle shopping for a car differently, how certain things are definitely management work...unless Jim is management and then it's workers' work. How 5 guys stealing llama isn't the weird part of a story about 5 guys stealing a llama. Jim is a miserable sports fan and hits a dubious milestone for the new year because of it and finally Jim is using his Das Boot on the ass of productivity!
Jim is back and he's not alone, the Doctor is in and is getting the highest honor that Podlast has to bestow. We learn what Kanye thinks being a rapper is equally as dangerous as Jim offers up his suggestion of a better comparison. Donuts. That's right we talk donuts and why Dunkin Donuts is doing the lord's work and then it's offensive toys and the idiots who are offended by them.
Jim is back and he totally called this Santa Fight. One dream goes down but there is another dream Jim has and he is willing to go to morally questionable, Peter Brady lengths to achieve it. Jim's Scene That Movie times 3 and two are atrocious. Then it's a million dollar idea that Jim would love to have before he gets old enough to need it and is Rose McGowan doing art or just something else awful? Jim Interprets it.
Jim is finally back and explains exactly where the hell he's been. He can't understand what the hell is going on in Minnesota youth sports and salutes a man who makes the ultimate sacrifice in the war against shopping. Stealing cars is so amateur, people in parking lots are insane and there are some things that Jim just couldn't get over during his second viewing of Man of Steel. Finally it's doing rich right, Fantasy Football musings and Jim tells everyone why he's a hero, not unlike Batman.
Jim is back and hoping everyone avoided Black Friday, he salutes participation in a pole dancing contest that quickly turns awkward and feels like a crazy lady is overreacting to being called a wh0R8X. It's the holiday season and people are on a budget so Jim is scouring the internet for gift ideas no matter the budget and then it's the joy of Amazon reviews and Jim gets real deep for all your protesters out there.
Jim is back and he is talking idiot rednecks and the robots they shoot on the side of the road, alien fish and why last week's ball staplers are totally off the hook. We learn why Thanksgiving dominates Christmas and Jim has tips on what to avoid and where to shop on Black Friday. Jims seen those movies as he sits through Jack the Giant Slayer and experiences how to slay a giant and then sees the new Hunger Games movie before finally paying homage to the 150th anniversary of the greatest speech ever by reciting the Gettysburg Address with the help of the speech jammer app.
A hungover Jim is back and he is dynamically soldiering on. He questions the purpose of a longtime show staple, envies the UK and pleads with kids to stop stapling their balls. Announce tables, Giant a-hole Eagles and farmers...all things that bother Jim. Recently Jim ruined the Walking Dead for himself, so he asks the listeners if he's crazy and then how cheap do you have to be in order to be 'extreme'.
Jim is back and guys, he has some bad news about flying cars. Jet-packs that don't take off? Still awesome. It's finally the finals of "Celebs can't sing...but do" and we have a doozy as the Hulkster squares off with Bud Bundy, Jim takes an hour long town hall on texting & driving and shrinks it down to 30 seconds. Finally Jim's seen a few movies, he reviews the most exhausting Zombie movie ever, how Sandra Bullock's backside stared in a movie and the White House get's taken down, twice, and Jim breaks both attempts down tale of the tape style.
Jim is back and he is again saluting people 'Doing Rich Right', tries to guilt his UK listeners into going to the music tree and points out the worst Superman of all time. Then it's the results of our last semi-final match up for "Celebs Can't Sing...but Do" as we head into the long awaited finals. Finally it's Keanu Reeves directorial debut in the best Martial Arts movie since one you've never heard of where an ancient form of exercise is used to kick a whole lot of ass.
Jim is back and he is figuring out how to deal with the last week's events in Boston. No jokes, no Kudos just one guy trying to figure things out. The Boston Marathon Bombing effected so many and even though I'm physically fine, it's such a weird thing to have something like this happen in a place where you've spent so much time. #BostonStrong!
Jim brings his sister, fresh off the plane from the UK, into the Podlast basement to talk about UK swear words, how this podcast got its name, terrible New Year's Eve party ideas and whether or not Jenn can tell the difference between a fake movie synopsis or one for a really, REALLY bad movie.
