From humble beginnings between a group of friends on Tuesday taco nights just hanging out and shooting the breeze, a mighty evolution has brought about a transformation into the Taco Knights of the Roundtable... or just the Taco kNights Podcast for short. Where we cover everything from Disney to m…
Special guests abound in this episode as we build up to number 100! Today we welcome Joseph and Leslie to taco 'bout stuff. YaY! Except we may have had too big of a meal beforehand and are running at half speed, but still providing full excitement! Wonder Woman is today's movie review (spoiler alert) and it is definitely worth a watch. Mix in a healthy dose of tangents that include MORE upcoming movies, Bill Nye, E3, and other stuff that I can't remember because it's way too late, and we have another show WOOOOOOOO!!! Tune in as we taco 'bout it and we'll figure out the rest together. You're welcome.
Can't get enough movie talk? Well, neither can we! Or we just can't remember what we talked about and are doomed to repeat ourselves again. So we'll just putt-putt around (HA!) and have some wholesome family fun as we center (who are we kidding, not really) our talk on what once was and end up with a spoiler free (?) Wonder Woman first impression movie review and whether or not you should go see it. Do it and taco about it (tell us what you think)! YAAAASSSSS!
Again we have a late posting from another late-night recording that went well past our collective consciousness to remember what we talked about, summarize it, and then upload it. Your guess is as good as ours in this one... but we're pretty sure we talked about movies.... most likely Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2... so when you hear the spoiler warning, go ahead and skip ahead about 30 minutes and you should be fine. Other than that, enjoy the surprise! Now let's TACO 'BOUT IT!!!
And now you're hungry too... for BOYSENBERRY, PANCAKES! All of this because Mother's Day is coming right up, Zelda: Breath of the Wild ruining some lives more than others, all kinds of food to find at the LA Food Bowl, plus food in general, and Hawai'i and the lazy rivers that make it awesome. What more do you need. Tune in as we TACO 'BOUT IT!
Drinko de Mayo:Part Dos We are back! What? Too soon? We know, we know... What did you all do to deserve this magnificently, tremendous podcast gift of another new episode that we bestow upon you today? Just bathe in the awesomeness... that is all. We continue the conversation from the last episode, sadly sans Phill, so we can't pick at his movie knowledge. But we'll make do and Guardians of the Galaxy up this podcast! Volume 2! Plus 40 years of Star Wars and a bonus Nintendo Switch review! What are you waiting for? Let's taco 'bout it!
Happy Cinco de Mayo! Throw some more pancakes this way! For as you'll see... we simply cannot get enough of them... or respect ;) Mr. Movieman himself is here... Special Guest Phill joins us today for a 2017 Movie Round up! And that's all that I can remember so, yadda yadda yadda, throw in a healthy does of the Taco Tangents and we have ourselves a show! Throw back some of that tequila and tune in as we TACO 'BOUT IT! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
It's a brand new episode in which we... taco 'bout more of the same stuff from the last episode (but without interruptions this time) and it is a FULL show this time. First we start off with the love/hate Nintendo relationship and go over all the reasons why the won't take our money. And as we always do, segue into something related... MORE KNOTT'S BOYSENBERRY FESTIVAL!!! MMMMmmmm... so dive on in and let's TACO 'BOUT IT! [Note this episode has been uploaded at a slightly lower bitrate than usual to meet the space restrictions. A higher-level bitrate version may replace this one in the future as space permits.]
Warning: Explicit Steven content ahead. Now with that out of the way... we have more listener e-mail responses and requests! Thank you all for writing in and guiding this particular episode (as guided as can be anyway). Today we feature the Knott's Berry Farm Boysenberry Festival and all the stuffs to eats and gets there. Plus! It's another movie trailer review/prediction segment! You get to hear what we see while we TACO 'BOUT IT!!!
Overcoming technical difficulties is the name of this game. We are finally back with fixed equipment that is now running better then ever. Adjustments and fine tuning are still to be had as we try to get back into the groove of things. Now what better way to do that than by randomly talking about sodas of days gone by, tangent into other stuff that I can't remember, answer some listener mail, and finally throw in a bit more randomness as we finally hit our stride... only to end the show because it was running long. =P Nothing more to do now, so let's taco 'bout it!
Welcome back to another episode that started off at point A and ended up at point V... (whispers: V for Vegas). But it's less about debauchery this time and more about the foods ::drool:: Turn on you ears and your taste buds because... something, something, food... something, something... LET'S TACO 'BOUT IT!
As you have probably surmised from the title, our special guest today is Swearing Steven! Join us for a tangential trek through alcohol, travel, Japan, Thailand, and more (Blythe? Yes. No. Can you repeat the question?)! Adult talk for adult ears in a slightly less than mature presentation. Need I say more? Of course not because this is the Taco kNights Podcast! Let’s TACO ‘bout it!
A magical night that leads to a magical review of a magical castle. A magical experience that can only be summed up by a magic word and a challenge to say "MAAAAAGIC" as many times as possible. Do you believe??? In... MAGIC??? Oh, oh, oh, it's... Magic... you knooooooow... Let's taco 'bout it! MAAAAGIC!
It's a New Year and that means new things to taco 'bout and new thing to try out for your auditory pleasure (insert innuendo here... yeah). Music, Disney, and Japan are today's Taco Tangent Topics... 3T... or T3... or whatever. It's entertaining for someone! So tune in and let's taco 'bout it!
EDC is the name of the game... and speaking of games lasting 24 hours... and speaking of 24 hours,which is a day, which are part of weeks... last week Doctor Strange opened up across the nation - the last major Marvel movie before the holidays... speaking of holidays, time to shop and see all the cool stuff and decorations... like what they have at Disneyland... Captain EO! SEGUE!
Thank you for sticking around with us as Life happened. But we have stories to catch you up on what we've been doing! A little bit of marriage here, a little bit of es-ca-pe there, some Guardian of the Star Wars Galaxy sprinkled in with a handful of tangents and we've got another rock solid, classic Taco kNights! Welcome back and enjoy Brochachos!
Some say that he predicts stuff... And that he knows how to critically watch movies... All we know, is he's called the Phill!
Some say that he curses a lot... a lot a lot... And that he knows how to make people bleed black... All we know, is he's called the Steven!
We have a special guest this week... PHILL! That makes for a very movie-centric podcast today as we review the big ticket movies that made their summer debut, as well as the new trailers to make their way out of Comic Con 2016. We've got the spirit and you've got to hear it, now on with the show!!! TACO! TACO! TACO! 'BOUT IT!!!
As we alluded to in the last show, we kick off with POKEMON GO! related news that's fit for podcasting! such as pokemon GO spawn tracking/locating via the pokevision.com website... AND AND AND!!! In our delirium, we jump all over the place and talk up the Power Rangers movie reboot, Comic Con, some other stuff that was heat-wiped from our memory banks... Want more specifics? Tune in as we TACO 'BOUT IT! because we sure don't remember!
Just as the title implies, we are trolling for grammar nazis... oh, and we have new, old content too. In this nostalgia-centric episode, we go way back to the Nintendo of the 80's as they debut their new retro console, to be released this November 11th, 2016. We take an in depth look at the 30 games included and give our thoughts on whether to buy, or not to buy. And speaking of Nintendo, Pokemon GO has become a thing now... a big thing... of craziness... so yeah... And with old classics becoming new again, we drop the new Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Behind the Scenes Celebration 2016 trailer that debuted in the UK as of this morning! That was a mouthful, like when you get bugs in your teeth from riding around that lightcycle all day, a la Tron Legacy. Yeah, we talk about that too. Plus! Taco kNights corrections... or Taco-rections... or something like that. I said it, now you say it too. Let's TACO 'BOUT IT!
We've got a fever... a Pokemon FEVER!!! And we GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL!!! Pokemon GO just released for the Android and iPhone devices and it is an interesting beast. Seems cool, as long as the servers don't crash, and it will definitely take you on an adventure. Perhaps a chicken dinner adventure? Of the Mrs Knotts variety? Still feeling nostalgic? How's 75 years of the original Knotts Berry Farm Ghost Town sound? Yep, we got that too. A better summer deal than Disneyland down the freeway. But wait, there's more! Universal Studios has their Harry Potter! More to the point, the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them! Then (yes), it is another summer movie round up! We can't help ourselves here, but eh... more audio only movie trailers! WOOO HOOO!!! AND! AND! AND! A SUMMER MOVIE COUNTDOWN!!! What are you waiting for!?! Let's TACO 'BOUT IT!!!
Summer is here! TODAY!!! Now you know what that means don't you? Barbeques! Beer! Fireworks! Movies! Freedom! YEAH!!! The 4th of July Independence Day Holiday here officially kicks off the summer season and we are here to kick it off with another episode of the Taco kNights Podcast! TODAY!!! Catching up with events the past few weeks we cover E3! The Electronics Entertainment Expo and all the new games and stuff (Naughty America) that is worthy to taco 'bout. TODAY!!!

It's another movie round up! Mary Poppins 2, Pacific Rim 2, Star Wars Rogue One, a spoiler filled review of Batman v Superman and Captain America: Civil War. Sprinkle in some over-hyped movies that everyone loved but us and "oldies" music and we've got ourselves a show! It's time to taco'bout it brochachos!
Vinyl, LPs, Records... those are the names of the the game as we go 'round the table and talk a little bit about what it was like before it became hip...ster. And being in L.A., there is a lot of that to go around. Speaking of going around... tourists go around the city as well. Which is what we tried to do by becoming a tourist in our own city. How did it work out? Tune in and find out as we Taco 'bout it. The more you know ---*
What movies are the movies that you will watch... over and over again, because it's all in your head... over and over again? And that only serves to motivate you to seek out the Harry Potter lands stuffs and maybe take a trip to the Universal Studios Hollywood! Good times! Old times! Times are not what they used to be and Cracker Jacks prove it, but better things are ahead with Nintendo and Company as we delve into the tech-y things before we tell Anna to go with him =)
Not much to say here... the title says it all! Confused? Curious? Interested? Only one thing to do then... Tune in and TACO 'BOUT IT! It's Superfreaky! Jungle Lovin'! O E O E O!!!
It's all about the Bats versus Sups in this episode... PLUS we pull in Ethan in a potato satellite interview through the magics of the technologies! We tried to keep it spoiler-free, but some tidbits may have snuck in so you have been warned. If you've already seen the movie, then share your thoughts with us and see if you agree with our comments. If you haven't seen it, then you can take this as a guide to watch it or wait for it. Throw in the requisite tangents and we have another great Taco kNights show for you to ear up to. Let's TACO 'bout it.
The title says it all... MAN-CAVE!!! It's a themed episode today! We talk about what will go into our man cave and hopefully it will give you ideas for yours. You want to hear what we have to say and we wan to hear what you have to say. Plug in, crank it up, and let's TACO 'BOUT IT!!!
It's been twenty years and still going strong... POKEMON! Happy Birthday? Red versus Blue. Who did you choose? Today's topic has gone retro and delves deep into the classic games of times gone by as well as the ones that have endured. A mini history of Coleco and Retro VGS fill out the rest of the show as well as the requisite tangents as we see fit. Something, something Amazon, BB-8, and the Holidays give us things to TACO 'bout!
Deadpool, Fullerhouse, Henry (the FPS Movie), Pete's Dragon, new Ghostbusters... These are some of the things that make this podcast go 'round. But none of that is important. What is important though, is the question of all questions... (insert suspense here)... Tacos or Chimichangas?!?!!???!!! What say you? What say we? Well? Let's TACO 'bout it!
Well it happened again... another one of our episodes (the most awesome one yet by the way) has been lost to the computer gods. This is twice now, so shame on us? Well anyway, we reinstalled some things and upgraded others so hopefully it won't happen again. And since we cant create the same magic twice, here is an entirely different episode for your enjoyment. It's late at night, it episode 69... heh... sixty-nine... ooooh yeeeeah ;) giggity... and we might be a little delirious while recording this. Ye be warned, arrrrrrrrrr. Tune in and let's TACO 'bout it! Bllllaaaaaarrrrrggggg!
We did it! A BONUS episode in the beginning of the year! Featuring special guest and movie connoisseur... Phill! We cover the big movies making their debut in 2016 and judge them entirely on their trailers and predicting which ones will be awesome or which one will suck. Join us for this special Superbowl slash Chinese New Year episode and see if your opinions match up with ours. Let's TACO 'bout it!
We went off the rails in this episode... again... more or less. But somehow something better has taken the place of the originally planned topic and that is travelling! Listen in as we reminisce of times gone by, as we saw the world from a younger perspective versus now, revisiting the world from a more seasoned perspective. How to see the world as it is constrained to the US borders and items to check off a bucket list of sorts. We'll pick up our normal programming topic schedule next week (heh... normal). In the meantime, tune as as we TACO 'BOUT IT! =)
Welcome to 2016 everyone! We're back, you're back, and everything is right with the world... mostly. Catch up with us as we catch up with what we have been doing since the break. And then we hop into our time machine to recap some of the movie highlights of 2015 (with a slight mention of what we are looking forward to in 2016), plus some big names we lost recently =(. And finally we finish up with a bit of Star Wars trivia. SPOILER ALERT: If you haven't seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens yet... we talk about and spoil it. Now that you have been alerted... Let's go and Taco 'bout it!
We are back after a Holiday hiatus to bring you a special return guest and catch up on about 3 weeks or so of the internet of things and such. Happy Halloween, Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays, from all of us to all of you. Keep up as we bum rush topics of Star Wars, DC, Marvel, and more! Trailer Warning: We watch and talk about a few trailers during the podcast, so if you haven't seen them yet, queue up the following -- `the Chinese Star Wars Trailer, Captain America: Civil War Trailer, the latest Batman v. Superman trailer, and the X-Men Apocalypse Trailer. Happy watching and happy listening as we TACO'BOUT IT!!!
We are back! Technical difficulties aside... Yes, it finally happened. An episode was lost to the digital wasteland. But fret not! We continue to push forward by going back in time and revisit 80's cartoons and ask what translates well to a movie. Consensus... tune in an find out. Then we shift gears into Star Wars: The Force Awakens and where you can see it in TRUE IMAX (in California) versus LIE-MAX everywhere else. When and where will you see it? Drop us a line and let us know as we TACO 'BOUT IT!
We can't believe it either, but we made a show that seems like it was possibly semi-professionally produced! Basically meaning we have segments... Science, Cars (self-driving ones vs terrible drivers), Technology (Automation and Batteries), Virtual Reality (Oculus Rift and copycats) and Gaming Reviews (Star Wars Battlefront), Movie Reviews (Pan, The Martin, etc.), TV Show Reviews (Fear/The Walking Dead, Flash, Gotham, etc.), New stuff coming out (Batman: The Killing Joke - R-rated, Justice League: Action), the dark and gritty side of DC, the closing joke of the show and how to reach us. So tune in as we TACO 'BOUT IT!!!
It's peanut butter jelly time! peanut butter jelly, peanut butter jelly... YAR HAR HAR it be funny har har. From lowbrow to highbrow, we freestyle this episode with a creamy filled center of SCIENCE B*tches! When suddenly CLOWNS! PREDATOR! JUDGE DOOM! and LARGE MARGE! Creepy and traumatic things from our (and maybe yours as well) childhood. And we finally round it out with the countdown to the Back to the Future (2) Delorean... time circuits set to October 21st, 2015. We'll see you... in the FUTURE! Until then, let's taco 'bout it.
Weird Al Yankovic is our opener today as we dive headfirst into our headline topic of Concerts! Sure it may be only two concerts, Weird Al and the Foo Fighters, but it's interesting nonetheless. Insert a segway into there somewhere and we have the “7” Wonders of the World.. places to see and the “Food” Wonders of the World… places to eat. We just skim the surface, more of a preview of what’s to come in the next show, but we would like to hear what your locale offers in terms of unique offerings to see and/or eat. Write in and we’ll taco ‘bout it!
What is your favorite, go to music of choice to get you pumped up and motivated and ready to take on the world? There may be a generational divide here but Jimmy crack corn and I don't care. We sort through some of our favorites and settle on others. See if you agree. Then we jump into entertainment news and take a look at the new Jungle Book trailer, question whether our beloved Pacific Rim (Two) will follow Tron 3 into the movie sequel abyss, and find out that Star Wars: The Force Awakens tickets are starting to go on sale at various movie theater outlets this October! WHHHHHAAAAAT!!!! Listen in and enjoy the (witty) banter as we TACO 'BOUT IT! =)
Welcome to part deux of another nostalgia filled episode. It is another heatwave here at the Taco kNights Studio and we keep on keepin' on to bring you yet another look into our lives... the good ol' days, before things got so... dumb. But first do you prefer generics or the name brand stuff? Is taste or saving money more important to you? Then afterwards is when we become the old curmudgeonly fools that we are and say how the music of our generation was better than this current generation. Casper Slide? Gangnam Style? Nae Nae? Let's taco 'bout it. =)
It's Force Friday as of this recording so we have to talk Star Wars and probably the single coolest toy out there... the Sphero BB-8 Droid, among other stuff. Will we be nostalgic about the new Star Wars toys years from now or look upon it with disdain as the ones who hoarded all the Jar-Jar toys? Then we sidetrack into old TV shows and share some fond memories of what we used to watch before jumping into what we are excited to have return to the present TV season/series as well as touch upon the related Cinematic Universe. So have a listen as we taco-bout-it =)
We keep rollin' along in this episode of the Taco kNights Podcast as we finally answer the question that has plagued mankind for years... Whis is your most favorite Nicolas Cage movie? Well he made a movie set on Alcatraz, so why not talk about that too, and how to Escape the Room and those Murder Mystery stuff... Clue anyone? Yes as in the movie/board game and other terrible and not so terrible movie ideas. But we would be remiss if we did have a Star Wars segment, as they had just released a tiny snippet of new footage. Awesome. And we close with a 10 most wanted comic book movie list of the next 5 years, before we succumb to the heat. -____-
Today we talk about what makes you feel old? Or what are signs that you are getting old? Then seamlessly transition right into the No Escape movie review and Steven Seagal neck-snapping action (possibly related somehow... probably not). Then we follow up with more movie randomness and music randomness, music fads, how it has changed, Alvin and the Chipmunks, and Back to the Future. I'll be your candle on the water... SATAN! And finally we close with Star Wars and the D23 Disney Movies release rundown. Makes sense? Of course it does. It always does. or we wouldn't be... The Taco kNights!
What did we do this past week besides work? A little bit of the sunny California coast, a little bit of Disneyland and then a little bit of feeling old talking about pagers, cell phones, features, and services. What phones did you have and what did you like and dislike about them? Well, we'll tell you what we think in this episode of the Taco kNights Podcast. Bring on the heatwave.
Summer is ending and we talk about our perfect summer endcaps, share some campfire camping stories, and get hungry talking about food. The perfect segway to talk about the OC Fair and all of their food... the good, the bad, and the weird. Beep. Listen in as we share our thoughts... beep... and share your thoughts with us too! Beep. Taco kNights. Beep. Giraffe.
It's all about the Ant Man baby! Another hit from Disney/Marvel Studios. We raved and think you will to. Listen in for our (spoiler-free-ish) review as well as our usual tangential topics of interest in this week's (sort-of) episode of Taco kNights Podcast.
Holy leaked trailers Batman! There was a lot of eye candy to chew on the past week! Join us as we talk about the most anticipated events and trailer releases to come out of San Diego (including but not limited to): Batman v Superman, Suicide Squad, Deadpool, and Star Wars: The Force Awakens. TLDR; Who is more awesome? Batman or Deadpool? Go! And after we talked about (insert dramatic announcer voice here) MOVIES OF THE FUUUUTUUURE... we talk about MOVIES OF THE PREEESEEEENT!!! Ant Man and Minions...all small things, all small things. Yada, yada, yada... all the things in between, etc. etc. etc... "Morgan Freeman" and the Green Lantern Oath. Enjoy! -.^
It's been a while... since we last talked to you. Heh. Lots of movie talk to kick things off in this episode as we seamlessly transition into the movie-related Comic Con goings on in San Diego... something to do with whales... anywho... another seamless segue way into another expo: The D23 Expo and when and what they have to offer. Blah blah blah, something about Reddit, some kind of Disneyland lists, and WALKING DEAD Season 6! Finally we round things out with our very first!!!... scratch that... THIRD Taco kNights Taste Test... of SCIENCE!!! Pringle-licious!
'MURICA! Today's podcast is filled with history and fireworks and all things America. YEAH! 'MURICA! WOOOOOO! And being as patriotic as we are, we talk about "The Most American Thickburger" from Carl's Jr. and swoon at it America-ness. Mmmmmm.... tastes like America. Then something about pulled pork sandwiches, Medieval Times, and a SPOILERS filled segment of Disney/Pixar movies... and then some. So have a listen and get your 'Murica on!
We took a brief break but now we are back. Join us as we catch up on what's been going on and what we've been up to the past few weeks as we get re-acclimated in the "studio" space. It's sumertime, it's hot, so let's have fun. We've got opinions and you've got to hear them. Taaaacooooo kNiiiiiiiiiiights kNights kNights...
