On this episode, Ollie Brady (Best Acquaintances, Media-eval) joins me to discuss 2013's Riddick. The third installment in the Riddick franchise, this film features a CGI alien dog that shows Riddick unconditional love. Who knew a CGI dog would bring out the best acting of Vin Diesel's career?!

We're joined by everyone's favorite Irishman, Ollie Brady of the Best Acquaintances podcast, to determine which light speed racer actually has a future.

Ollie Brady from the Best Acquaintances podcast joins us! We loose Leanne part way through because of connection issues! Elaine had to use a different mic which is why the audio sounds even! WWE talk!
Ollie Brady @ollieandemily of Best Acquaintances joins me to discuss Tulips in Spring. We discuss the royals for no apparent reason and Sade's Kissed by a Rose on the Grave. It's much more fun than actually talking about the very dull very unromantic movie about a lady who tries to decide between interior design and farming and between current boyfriend and hot flower broker.
This week, I’m joined by Emily Bennett of Best Acquaintances to talk about the insidious nature of young jealousy! Like, seriously, it’s a pretty solid book that deals with a pretty serious topic for adolescent kids. I know! https://ia601501.us.archive.org/27/items/DIBCEP146/DIBC-EP146.mp3

This movie is about as far as you can get from our normal fare. We were joined by Ollie Brady from the Best Acquaintances podcast to talk about the movie Detonator. Or Death Train. The movie so nice, they named it twice. This film stars Patrick Stewart, Pierce Brosnan, Christopher Lee and the dude who played Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs. It also stars a death train. Ya'll, this movie has like, 200% more explosions than we've ever seen on Lifemark You can find Best Acquaintances at @ollieandemily on twitter and at
CW: Sexual Assault, Rape Overtones and Presumed Abuse This week Dawn and Rachel are joined by Ollie Brady of Best Acquaintances. We apologize to our United Kingdom and Ireland listeners, we bought Rachel a map. Ollie enlightens us on the science behind washing your face on television and we don’t buy Dillon as a biker, at all. Do you know your helmet and seatbelt laws? We learned them so you don’t have to. A central point of this episode is Jack Kerouac, which Becky has romanticized to the nth degree. We can’t blame her, each generation has that person. While the subjects covered are important, the white knight/savior complex causes concern with us during the middle the episode. Also Ollie makes an astute observation that Kerouac is basically our generation’s Palahniuk. We did like this episode a lot. Next week join us for Season 2, Episode 19, Leaping Without A Net.

Content warning: Domestic Abuse and Suicide This two part story arc covers the life and demise of Lee Harvey Oswald. Why is Sam there? We barely find out and it takes a long time to get there, so instead of splitting into two and leaving you hanging, we’ve combined it into a mega episode! Also, self proclaimed Number 1 fan, Ollie Brady of Best Acquaintances is back. Besides the obvious topics, Rachel puts on her analytical thinking cap regarding brain merging plus we add in some historical facts like the cost of a gun gun factoring in inflation. We’re beginning to think Ollie picks episodes that have the infamous silver jacket in them.

For this episode, we discuss the great hate of Hulu and why do youths of today not know that NBC is a network? Oh! And we have return guest, Ollie Brady of Best Acquaintances. Dawn spends a lot of time convincing them that the fictional town is based on a real town in Alabama. Rachel spends a lot of time faking Val Kilmer’s accent in Tombstone; a movie that Ollie reallllllly loves. Lest we not forget, the episode itself is full of a lot of corruption of the criminal justice system and how this is basically a made for tv Cool Hand Luke. Enjoy!

Next week's episode is Season 3, Episode 22 "Shock Theater" with guest Woody Battaglia.
In which Meghan is joined again by Emily Bennett and Ollie Brady of Best Acquaintances, and they discussed Haruki Murakami’s Hard Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World, a beautiful and weird book from the 1980s. Meghan apparently doesn’t know what “magical realism” is and keeps trying to apply it to all books, Ollie rants that he doesn’t want unicorns mixing in his science, and Emily explains how badass you can be even at 17 and when you’re considered “pink and chubby.” We all discuss what we would do on our last day on earth, more about unicorns, and how much boys think about food and sex. Books discussed in this podcast: Hard Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World Kafka on the Shore The Metamorphosis What I Talk About When I Talk About Running 1Q84 My Cousin Rachel Lamb Find us on the web: Website | Twitter | Facebook | Instagram | Goodreads | Email: judgingcoverspodcast@gmail.com Find our host and guest(s): Meghan's Twitter | Best Acquaintances' Twitter | Best Acquaintances' Facebook
