Jeff Bayer and I delve into some Grand Lodge of California history and learn some history. Some of it we believe was romanticized a bit and some of it was left for the reader to decipher. We a four-book series called One Hundred Years of Freemasonry in California. This book set came out in 1950 celebrating the one hundredth anniversary. As Bayer and I finish reading the chapter called "Organization of Grand Lodge" we share our insights, comments, and opinions on the matter. Join us as we ask questions and learn more.

Jeff Bayer and I delve into the Origins of the Grand Lodge of California. We begin to explore the Who, what, where, why, and how of the Grand Lodge of California. What did we find?

Worshipful Jeff Bayer a Mason of 30 years talks briefly about his past in Freemasonry, his assent thru the chairs at Palm Springs Lodge, his observations as to how Freemasonry was being practiced back then, his rise to the East and being a part of what happens when two lodges have to consolidate. Then we get into the 8 Steps to Excellence, Masonic Education at every meeting and The Trivium Discussion Group/ Socrates Cafe and how that opened his eyes to something he had never considered. We round that up with a discussion of what he then observed when a group of masons came back to Palm Springs Lodge to help get it back on its feet and running the way it is now.

This bonus pairing of podcasts, this extra-special mashup of two movie-talking-tastes that taste very wry together isn't as jubilantly off the rails as Junkfood All Over was, but that's because Eric D. Snider and Jeff Bayer of Movie BS with Bayer and Snider is a more restrained, yet somehow still rambunctious listening experience, and when they take over this bonus episode, things do - no doubt - derail spectacularly, but with just a touch of class, too. Or as much class as can be mustered one one is championing the "classic" comedy Hunk.

On the 200th episode of The Golden Briefcase, Tim and Jeremy are joined by fellow podcast hosts of Movie B.S. - Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider to talk through their picks of the week and much more. For the main topic the guys talk through their reactions to 2014 summer in movies (with Expendables 3 in theaters now). They talk about reactions to some of the tentpole releases, studio wins and losses and also spend time talking about this year's VOD market and many of the phenomenal titles released on VOD this summer. And with that, the 200th episode of the Golden Briefcase is in the can! Tim and Jeremy are taking a little break to re-tool and reconfigure the show to bring you a fresh take on the show for its next iteration. Look forward to our Fantastic Fest coverage next month to kick off the new season of The Golden Briefcase.

Live from Fantastic Fest, Jeff Bayer talks to Pat Healy from "The Innkeepers," "Compliance," the upcoming "Cheap Thrills," and many other movies you've seen or been told you should see. Snider makes a cameo at around 6:00.

It was Jeff Bayer’s turn to write the summary for Episode 79 of Movie B.S with Bayer and Snider, but he forgot to do it before he left for the airport and Eric D. Snider had to do it instead. This is really symptomatic of the problems in Jeff and Eric’s professional relationship, and it’s only a matter of time before it comes to a head. In the meantime, on the show they both raved about “50/50,” the funny and touching cancer comedy-drama starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen. Both critics also agreed on “Dream House”: it’s terrible. They both liked the gory horror comedy “Tucker and Dale vs. Evil,” too, though Eric liked it more than Jeff did. See? This is what I’m talking about. A perfectly good horror comedy like “Tucker and Dale vs. Evil,” and Jeff doesn’t appreciate it. He’s ungrateful. I guess that’s what it is. He’s just ungrateful. But anyway. Sorry. Jeff saw Anna Faris’ new comedy “What’s Your Number?” and said it’s really bad, so we’re taking his word for it. Then the show got cut a little short because — surprise, surprise — Jeff selfishly had to fly out of town to join his wife and celebrate their anniversary. Ugh. This guy.

QOTW: In conjunction with “The Ides of March,” which movie politician would have your vote? Any movie politician, any office.

Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider watched “Moneyball,” which is about baseball and math, and both critics approve. They were less enthusiastic about “Dolphin Tale,” though Eric thinks it’s worth taking the kids to. Jeff was down on the documentary “Pearl Jam Twenty,” and Eric didn’t see it because he doesn’t like the rock ‘n’ roll that you young people today listen to. PROPAGANDA EXTRAVAGANZA: If you like Movie B.S., tell people about it. (If you don’t like it, please be quiet.) The most creative propaganda piece will win the biggest Movie B.S. prize to date! One winner will get the following Blu-rays: “TRON: Legacy,” “MacGruber,” “Limitliess” and “Louie: Season 1.” Check out our Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/moviebspdx for past examples.

QOTW: Who’s your favorite sick (i.e., physically ill) movie character, and why?

For the first time ever in the history of Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider, film critics Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider talk about movies they like, don’t like and simply shrug at. First up is “Drive” starring Ryan Gosling. It falls under the “like” category (a lot). Next up is “I Don’t Know How She Does It” starring Sarah Jessica Parker. Can you guess what category this flick falls under? We answer the QOTW which was, “What actor or actress who normally plays a certain type of character could break out and play against type?” Of course there’s pimping, plus PROPAGANDA EXTRAVAGANZA (see details below). Both Jeff and Eric saw the original “Straw Dogs” and Eric saw the remake. Interquel is played with “Bull Durham” and “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.” PROPAGANDA EXTRAVAGANZA: If you like Movie B.S. then tell people about it. The most creative propaganda piece will win the biggest Movie B.S. prize to date! One winner will get the following Blu-rays: “TRON: Legacy,” “MacGruber,” “Limitliess” and “Louie: Season 1.” Check out our Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/moviebspdx for past examples. Fans have made and posted fliers, created decks of cards, and even killed a man in our name! Deadline to enter is October 19. QOTW (thanks to listener Dave Gibbons): How far have you ever driven to see a movie, what movie was it, and was it worth the drive?

There are many movies to talk about this week on Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider, so it’s a good thing it’s a movie show. Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider both endorse “Warrior,” a sports movie with heart (and some plot contrivances). They also approve of “Contagion,” a virus medical thriller about death and disease and stuff. Eric loved the raucous sci-fi comedy “Attack the Block”; Jeff liked it OK. They were further split on the spiritual drama “Higher Ground,” which Eric loved and Jeff found boring. Your QOTW for the next show: What actor or actress who normally plays a certain type of character could break out and play against type? Give us specific ideas of what he or she could do to change things up.

Film critics Eric D. Snider and Jeff Bayer talk movies, pimp and play a game. Come join us, won’t you? First up is “The Debt” starring Helen Mirren, Jessica Chastain, and Sam Worthington. Eric liked it, Jeff verged on love. Jeff also plays a little of his interview with Mirren and company. “Shark Night 3D” and “Apollo 18″ weren’t screened for critics, so we have no idea what level of bad they are. We did answer the QOTW which was: In honor of “Apollo 18,” which presents a horror twist on the Moon landing, what other historical event could be given the horror treatment? Next up is “A Good Old Fashioned Orgy” starring Jason Sudeikis and a bunch of others. Both critics enjoyed it enough, though Jeff found it a little tame. They play a rousing game of PITCH ME starring Richard Gere and Scott Baio, yes THE Scott Baio. “The Adults in the Room” gets a one-week run at Cinema 21. It’s from local Portland filmmaker Andy Blubaugh and even has a little Eric in it. Go see it!

Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider have a lot of movies to talk about this week, so naturally they spend several minutes talking about unrelated tangents. But then, movies! “The Help” is a surprisingly effective story about race relations in the 1960s. Eric liked “Final Destination 5″ more than Jeff did, and they both thought “30 Minutes or Less” was okay. “The Guard” is a very funny Irish dark comedy, and Eric quickly recommended “The Future.” There was some good QOTW action, too, with many fine answers provided by the listeners. QOTW: What bad ’80s movie do you think could be remade into a good one? Feel free to give casting ideas, too.

Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider do what they were born to do … and then they talk about movies. This week it’s the prequel “Rise of the Planet of the Apes.” Snider liked it and Bayer did as well. Then they discuss the QOTW: What other film should have a prequel? After that it’s on to discussing the absolutely filthy, and sometimes very funny “The Change-Up” starring Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds. Two independent films made it to Portland this week, “Another Earth,” which both of them saw, and “Tabloid” which Snider saw. This week’s game of Pitch Me stars David Spade and Mark Wahlberg. Finally, here’s your new Question of the Week … QOTW: In honor of “The Help” – which tells the story of black maids in segregated Mississippi, what other groups’ historical stories should be told.

Jeff Bayer and a newly clean-shaven Eric D. Snider have much to discuss on this week’s edition of Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider. First up is “Cowboys & Aliens,” which neither gentleman found particularly appealing, although neither of them hated it either. “Crazy Stupid Love,” on the other hand, is a funny and surprising ensemble comedy about love, and how it’s stupid and crazy. Jeff saw “Snow Flower and the Secret Fan” and says you shouldn’t. Nobody saw “The Smurfs,” so whatever. There was some good Question of the Week action regarding items that should be paired up in movies, and a fine edition of Pitch Me involving dames on a submarine. QOTW: In honor of next week’s “Rise of the Planet of the Apes,” what movie would you like to see a prequel to, and why?

This week on Movie B.S. our film critics Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider review a superhero, an office mate and friends … with benefits. First up is “Captain America: The First Avenger” starring Chris Evans and Tommy Lee Jones. Eric was a bigger fan, but we both had a few issues for very different reasons. There’s also Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis trying to have it all in “Friends with Benefits.” Both of us think it rises above the average romantic comedy. It’s very rated R. Jeff saw “A Little Help” so you don’t have to. Plus, we play Jeff’s interview with Chris Evans (“Captain America”) and also Eric’s column Snide Remarks. Want to see “Cowboys & Aliens” early? We’re giving away a pair of tickets for Tuesday night in Portland. Go to our Facebook page and tell us you want to go. QOTW: With “Cowboys & Aliens” coming out, what other two things should go together to become a movie?

For the Fourth of July, Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider are celebrating freedom from great movies. “Transformers: Dark of the Moon” and “Larry Crowne” are both lousy, and “Monte Carlo” is only so-so. Jeff saw the New York Times documentary “Page One” (Eric didn’t) and says it’s pretty good, if you like newspapers and journalism and stuff. “Transformers” provides a good excuse to talk about toys that should be made into movies; the guys update their box-office competition; and Eric reads more iTunes reviews in old-timey voice. QOTW: In honor of next week’s “Horrible Bosses,” tell us about a horrible boss you’ve had.

Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider are … wait for it, wait for it … talking movies this week on “Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider.” First up is Pixar’s animated sequel “Cars 2″ starring Larry the Cable Guy. Yes, he’s the lead. Jeff and Eric don’t hate this movie, but it’s the worst of the Pixar bunch. They also dive into what this “Cars” world means. Next up is “Bad Teacher” starring Cameron Diaz, Justin Timberlake and Jason Segel. Two of those three aren’t that funny in this R-rated comedy. “Conan O’Brien Can’t Stop” shows Conan (warts and all) after being fired from “The Tonight Show” and focuses on his comedy tour. The boys play Interquel with “Gremlins” and “40 Year-Old Virgin.” This week’s QOTW is dedicated to “Transformers: Dark of the Moon” and it’s this … QOTW – “What toy should be made into a movie?”

This week on “Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider,” Jeff Bayer is still wherever the hell he is, but he and Eric D. Snider pre-taped reviews of “Super” and “Rubber” for your listening pleasure, along with a round of Pitch Me. So there’s plenty of Bayer! Eric also talks about “Rio,” “The Conspirator,” and “American: The BIll Hicks Story.” And then, live via satellite, horror maven Scott Weinberg talks to Eric about the “Scream” series, including a review of “Scream 4.” Scott’s cat Jones makes a silent cameo.

On this week’s very special edition of Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider, Jeff Bayer is in Africa, doing goodness knows what, but do not fear! He and Eric D. Snider pre-taped some stuff before he left, so the show still has your recommended daily allowance of Bayer. They both liked “Hanna” pretty well. In the studio, Mike Russell (@culturepulp on Twitter) and Snider agreed that “Arthur” is passable but nothing special. Via Skype, Matt Patches (@misterpatches) told us about “Soul Surfer,” and he and Snider expressed their disappointment in “Your Highness.” Then: pre-taped Pitch Me, with Henry Winkler and Natalie Portman! And all was well in the land.

Your old pals Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider are off to Austin for South By Southwest, but that didn’t stop them from delivering a piping-hot new edition of Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider first! All the movies this week are about aliens and monsters and stuff. “Battle Los Angeles” offers good action, too much shaky-cam, and war-movie cliches. “Red Riding Hood” is stupid. “Mars Needs Moms” is flat and lifeless. B & S also play a game of Interquel that gets dark and weird, announce the winners of last week’s propaganda contest, and add a few new agents to the Movie B.S. census. QOTW: What movie alien would you most like to find in your back yard, and why? (Note: No humanoids, e.g., Luke Skywalker.) Send your answers to moviebspdx@gmail.com, or post at facebook.com/moviebspdx. If you’re in Austin for SXSW, keep an eye on Twitter — @MovieBS, @EricDSnider, @BayerJeff — for a meet-up.

This week on Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider, film critics Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider start with a giveaway of “127 Hours” the only way they know how, with propaganda. They also quickly recap Jeff’s win with the Academy Awards and what that means for Eric. Then, it’s time for movie reviews. First up, “Rango” starring Johnny Depp. Love? Really like? Any way you cut it, go see it. Then it’s “The Adjustment Bureau” starring Matt Damon and Emily Blunt. Again, the boys agree this is a movie worth seeing. Then it’s “Take Me Home Tonight” and “Beastly.” One is better than the other. You can figure out which?

This week, film critics Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider talk about movies! First up, “Unknown” starring Liam Neeson and January Jones is not that bad, or pretty good, depending on how you look at it. “I am Number Four” is a sci-fi movie that Eric and Jeff have slightly different opinions on, tune in to listen to the tension! Eric sat through “Big Mommas: Like Father Like Son,” so that happened. Jeff sat through the documentary “I Am” and the critics had yet another difference of opinion with “Cedar Rapids.” Can you stand it? Next week, all signs point to the screenwriter Paul Tamasy being on our show. He’s even nominated for an Oscar for “The Fighter.” So now, the QOTW is simple, SEND US YOUR “THE FIGHTER” QUESTIONS!

Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider are both live and in the studio this week for a scintillating edition of Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider. “Sanctum” — a movie with which James Cameron is somehow vaguely affiliated — is about caves and underwater and stuff, and Bayer liked it more than Snider, although they both gave it the same grade. “The Roommate” wasn’t screened for critics. Wasn’t even screened for the yahoos who go to promotional screenings. Must be awesome! Bayer and Snider also discuss the answers to the QOTW (which two actresses should make a movie together?), and issue a new QOTW: What three films would you program for a mini-marathon for Valentine’s Day? Also, a rousing and controversial edition of Pitch Me involving race relations and mad scientists.

It’s the end of the year, so film critics Eric D. Snider and Jeff Bayer are giving you their Top Ten Movies of the Year. There are six that overlap, and by our math, four that don’t. Listen to find out what they are. Here’s a clue … “Toy Story 3″ and “Inception.” We also answer the QOTW, “What are the most overlooked movies of 2010?” As always you can check us out on Facebook at www.facebook.com/MovieBSpdx and email us with your questions, suggestions, rants and anything else you can think of at moviebspdx@gmail.com. Thanks for listening in 2010, and we hope, in the new year as well.

In a special Christmas Eve episode of Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider, Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider talk about how awful “Little Fockers” is, and how great “The King’s Speech” is, and how pretty-good “True Grit” is, and how nice the holidays are, and how Jeff’s knee is doing much better, thank you so much for asking. There’s also a holiday edition of Pitch Me, though Bayer tried to cheat by preparing some material in advance. Reminder for next week’s QOTW: What’s your favorite overlooked movie of 2010?

The holidays are coming and so are some movies totally worthy seeing. Eric D. Snider says “TRON: Legacy” is pretty to look at but not much else. Jeff Bayer disagrees and says it’s pretty to look at and more. “The Fighter” is a boxing movie worth your time with Christian Bale stealing many scenes away from Mark Wahlberg (not in a bad way). Eric didn’t see “I Love You Phillip Morris” but Jeff did and describes it as a gay “The Informant!” Thanks to knee surgery, Jeff didn’t sit through “How Do You Know” or “Yogi Bear” and that’s where Eric comes in to give you his take. They answer plenty of QOTWs and the next Question of the Week is “What is your favorite overlooked movie of 2010?”

Jeff Bayer is in L.A. hobnobbing with superstars while Eric D. Snider toils away in the studio, but Jeff is on the show anyway! Through the magic of telephones! Bayer and Snider discuss “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader” (which isn’t particularly good), and Snider talks about “The Tourist” while Bayer doesn’t listen. They address the QOTW (movie locales you’d like to visit) and offer up a new one: In honor of “TRON: Legacy,” what movie from at least 20 years ago do you think would benefit from a sequel set at least 20 years later? Bayer talked about meeting Jeff Bridges and Barry Pepper, and he and Snider played a rousing game of Pitch Me involving Liam Neeson and Adam Sandler and a kid.

Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider have no movies to talk about this week. What ever shall they do? Well, even though “Black Swan” isn’t out in Portland yet, they’re reviewing (and loving) it. It stars Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis and is in major cities in limited release. “The Warrior’s Way” didn’t have an advance screening, but film.com and thescorecardreview.com will eventually have reviews up. With all this extra time, Bayer and Snider record a much-needed promo, they also play Interquel and answer the QOTW. More important than all of that, they insist you vote for Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider on http://www.podcastawards.com/. You can vote once every 24 hours. Make it so. Next week’s QOTW is “What movie location (real or fictional) would you most like to visit and what would you do there?”

There are three big movies totally worth talking about and seeing this weekend, so let’s get to it. Eric D. Snider and Jeff Bayer agree the darker tone works for the almost final chapter of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1.” Both agree that after a slow, great buildup, “The Next Three Days” becomes a really good thrill ride starring Russell Crowe. Portland finally has “12y Hours” starring James Franco and directed by Danny Boyle, so go see it already. Once again, Bayer and Snider agree. A game of Pitch Me is played, but both think they’ve done better. This time around it’s Alan Rickman and Meg Ryan. Please keep sending your propaganda to moviebspdx@gmail.com and we’ll keep posting it to our Facebook page facebook.com/MovieBSpdx. The QOTW is “What movie should be remade and why?”

This week Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider decide to talk about movies! First up, It’s “Hereafter” with Matt Damon (in one-third of the film), directed by Clint Eastwood. Both decide it’s boring. On the other hand, if you liked “Paranormal Activity” then you’ll get more scares with “Paranormal Activity 2.” “Conviction” has made its way to Portland and Bayer likes it more than Snider. We’ve also started a Facebook page (just search for Movie B.S.). The QOTW is what would be your Halloween movie marathon (three movies in your specific order).

Film critics Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider spend a lot of time talking about all things jackass-y. The both agree “Jackass 3D” will make you laugh whether you like it or not. Plus, they give personal stories from jackass moments in their lives. The critics review “RED” starring Bruce Willis is something you’ve seen before. They give the others movies (“Freakonomics,” “Stone” and “You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger” two minutes each. Then, it’s time for Interquel. This week they combine “Shawshank Redemption” and “The Wizard of Oz.” The QOTW (question of the week) is “What is your favorite movie related Halloween costume?”

Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider are back live! We’re talking about two really good films that hit the screens this week: ‘The Social Network’ and ‘Let Me In.’ Both decided ‘The Social Network’ is a must see. Then, since we were gone last week it was time for rapid-fire reviews. We gave three minutes each to “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps,” “Catfish,” “Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole,” “The Virginity Hit,” “Jack Goes Boating,” “Case 39,” and “You Again.” We also blew the Question of the Week, but we have one for next week. What is your favorite sports movie without a ball? In other words, no football, baseball, basketball, etc. No balls!

It’s a sad day for Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider, on account of all the movies this week are lousy. “Robin Hood”: long and slow. “Letters to Juliet”: pretty generic rom-com. “Just Wright”: just wrong. Still, Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider managed to disagree on the extent to which each of the movies is bad. Then they talked about “The Apple,” a futuristic musical from 1980; played a depressing round of Pitch Me involving Carrot Top and Ben Affleck; and read some viewer mail. Speaking of which, send them some e-mails at moviebspdx@gmail.com!

In a turn of events no one could have foreseen, the remake of "A Nightmare on Elm Street" is terrible! So say Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider both in this episode of Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider. And while neither of them saw "Furry Vengeance," they're pretty sure it's terrible, too, and Eric offers some tips on how to tell the two movies apart. There's also some talk of the Tribeca Film Festival, of Jeff's bicycling and volleyballing prowess, and a Pitch Me movie idea involving Judi Dench and time travel.

Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider both agree “Kick-Ass” is a good old violent time in the third episode of “Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider.” “Death at a Funeral” isn’t a big winner, and Snider compares it to the original British version. Snider may just have a chance to beat Bayer in Fixer & Defender as Bayer stumbles through “Star Wars — Episode II: Attack of the Clones.” Most importantly, in Pitch Me the critics come up with a Christopher Walken/Sam Elliott movie that can’t be missed.

“Date Night” gets approval from both Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider in this, the second episode of “Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider.” Somewhat less approved in “The Runaways.” Jeff and Eric also make fun of the insane things that happen in Tyler Perry’s latest movie, play a round of Fixer and Defender with Kevin Smith’s “Cop Out,” and share weird memories of “Mary Poppins.”

In their premiere episode, Jeff Bayer and Eric D. Snider rip on "Clash of the Titans" (especially its cheap 3-D) and Miley Cyrus' "The Last Song." They also discuss 1983's "Hercules" (starring Lou Ferrigno) and try to make up a Samuel L. Jackson/Michelle Pfeiffer movie on the spot. And for some reason Jeff says "all the sudden" instead of "all of a sudden."
