As the podcast climbs out of the self-induced hiatus with episode 080, we bring back one of the original founders of the show, Kevin Harvell, of the Tech Informist, Everything VR & HR, and the 2GuysTalking Podcast Network. Kevin also led the STL Tech Talk and Who's Who In St. Lou podcasts. Vernon and Kevin reminisce about the early days of the podcast, which was over two years ago already! We hear about what led Kevin to the place in which he was able to launch the MS Mobile Show, and then dig in to what he has now progressed to. True to the new format of the podcast, we hear from Kevin on aspects of his life in which few listeners are aware, including raising a family, working in the racially polarized city of St. Louis, his many years in the automotive industry, and the stark contrast to what he is doing now.

We all either personally, or know someone who has spent hours over the years playing the Rock Band franchise of video games rocking out to some of our favorite music, or learning about some news songs to fall in love with. Guest Matt Boch of Harmonix joins Kevin to talk about the latest Rock Band experience that they are using to truly take you to center stage with their first VR offering simply called Rock Band VR. Available soon on the Oculus Rift, Rock Band VR will use the upcoming Oculus Rift Touch controllers which attach to most existing Rock Band guitars to let you rock out to a set list of over 50 songs when it launches while looking out at that crowd in ways you've never been able to do so without physically being on stage. We are really looking forward to this experience and would love to hear your thoughts on Rock Band VR so make sure to let us know what you think.     Harmonix and Rock Band on social media and the web: Web - HarmonixMusic.com Twitter - @RockBand Facebook - Facebook.com/RockBand     It pays to listen!

32 years after the original, we get Vacation, a new road trip movie with Ed Helms as Rusty Griswold in the driver seat. We were skeptical for obvious reasons... And were pleasantly surprised in for not so obvious reasons.  We had mixed reactions to the movie.  But it gave us a ton to talk about... We can't help but to compare it to National Lampoon's Vacation from so many years before.  And we sort of think that was the point.  Enjoy as we drag Kevin Harvell into this one with us. We compare Chevy Chase to Ed Helms, Christina Applegate to Beverly D'Angelo and the kids to all the iterations of Rusty and Audrey.

First up, Kevin Harvell of STL Tech Talk and Tech Informist joins the show to discuss tech and phones and Producer Bobby's love of hating the iPhone (errr wait....yep thats sort of correct).  But he also jumps in to give his opinion on the big story out of McKinney, Texas (Dallas) where a pool party goes awry and the police are called in.  All of which is fine as long as you are not one specific cop and his Lethal Weapon-esque style all caught on camera.  The guys discuss the implications and the racial inequality discussion that came out after the fact.Then we switch gears and talk with Gerogia Page calling in from Australia.  Georgia put on the black and gold for Lindenwood Unversity (Mark's Alma Mater) and played Womens Rugby....which eventually led to her showing how dominate and tough she is through ESPN replaying her clip over and over in their Top Ten plays. Georgia takes a massive hit and keeps on trucking.  We talk with her about the sport of womens rugby and Vegemite.Finally Mark goes all in discussing soccer in the midwest and specifically the attitude of fans in 2015 with regard to soccer in the US.  This brings up the attempts by some to bring Soccer back to prominence in the STL and Mark hits them all with a strong dose of reality only he can deliver.
