Incantations. Spells. Grimoires. The Devil's words. BS tests and the hangman's noose. All things that today don't mean much, but in 1692 they meant everything, especially during the epic (kind of) mythological time of the Salem Witch Trials! Blown out of proportion is an understatement, and Kalvin and Nick dive deep to abolish the blasphemers and confirm the truths. We bring our spectral evidence to the table and dissect this grim episode of American lore and the trials and tribulations many poor women and men of a Puritan community faced on the frontiers of Massachusetts. Yet another time where it's easy to point fingers until the higher ups find themselves pointed out, and just as quickly as it flamed up, it fizzled out.

A film with sports as the catalyst of the story can be a good one. But it's mostly a genre filled with cliche moments and feel good endings. One sport, however, holds up better than all others when it comes to film, and that's boxing! So naturally it's time for us to punch out a Boxing Movie Superlative episode! For a small list of decent boxing movies, most tend to hold up. Movies such as Rocky, of course, dominate the field when it comes to some of the best moments, opponents, and shouts of Adrian! While others tell a different story from a different point of view, one that tends to help the viewer take a walk in the protagonist's shoes. Which fighters have the toughest of opponents? Or the dopest of cornermen? And overall, who is the best fighter, as in the character and the actor who plays them? We follow each award with our patented sucklatives, and we're sure you'll see what we see, even if Mickey has to cut ya!

The medium of television has given us some of the best examples of villains of all time. Whether it is the long-form content, in depth world building, build up, or larger cast, there seems to be a notable gap between the majority of villains who appear on film versus those on television, outside of a select few. You may ask yourself, “who is the best,” and dear listener, Kalvin and Nick are here to settle that debate! Bringing a super scientific tracking method (thanks to Kalvin) we dive in and rate some of the best TV Villains and what makes them so memorable! We dissect what makes a good villain, from the mystery factor to the connection to the protagonist, or whether their mean asses deserve any sympathy or not. Assigning a rating of 1-50, we lay out our evidence before giving a rating, and at the end we settle once and for all, at least for us, who is the best villain. Are there any ‘perfect' villains? Let us know what you think on Twitter @APASomething and @alone_podcast, and listen in and find out on this week's episode all about TV Villains.

The Pensieve is one of the few objects of immense power within the world of Harry Potter to not have a full-fledged history behind it. Well, Kalvin and Nick came to the conclusion that this couldn't stand, so we decided to dive into the Pensieve and figure it out for ourselves! Throughout the story of the Boy Who Lived, the Pensieve was incredibly significant just a few times, but when it did come into play you knew something was going down. With little to no background we set our eye on this shallow bowl (don't s*%t in it), the memory capabilities it holds, how and if it would be useful in the real world, and whether or not you want John Madden or Mike Tyson to narrate your memories.

The lightsaber from the Star Wars franchise is one of the most iconic weapons in all of pop culture, so much so the noise it makes flashed through your mind when you first read the word. This week we talk all things Lightsabers in honor of the month of December, AKA Star Wars Month here on A Podcast About Something, brought to you like only Kalvin and Nick can! There is much more beneath this mysterious weapon than meets the eye, from the complicated creation method, the process which gives them their many colors, and finally to the legends that utilize certain models. Lightsabers are often as iconic as the Jedi and Sith who wield them, cutting their way through the ancient history of the Star Wars universe. As always join the discussion on Twitter @APASomething and @alone_podcast, and stay tuned this December as we further explore a time long ago in a galaxy far away!

We took the most character defining moments from Jerry, Elaine, Kramer, and George and threw them into a bracket free-for-all hosted on bracketsninja.com. Each character has one branch of the bracket, and the Final Four will see each of their best moments going head-to-head to determine the One Shining Seinfeld Moment! Kalvin and Paul discuss our favorites moments, best matchups, potential upsets, and maybe even a sleeper or two in this episode to give some context to the moments that made the bracket.
