Let’s Make A List!!

Middle and High School English classes are known for assigning various forms of literature to read and study. In this episode, we look at and discuss our favorite and least favorite books that were assigned to us by our teachers. What did we love? What did we have a hard time finishing?

Our special guest this week is Josh' brother and Jack's uncle, Jake. He brings his insight and experience in the music industry to the table as we sit down and create a three-stage, all-day music festival only using bands from 2000-2010. We even double-up on special guests in this episode, with an interview at the end.

With Jack away for another week, we have our second-longest tenured guest, DJ 2K, Kevin Manning on the mic. This week we dig deep into the discography of Sean Corey Carter, better known as Jay-Z and talk our favorite songs and albums. Throw the diamond up!

With Jack away, we welcome back our longest tenured guest, Tara! In this episode we talk about our favorite overall guilty pleasure films. With both Josh and Tara having fairly different movie tastes, one has to wonder if they will have a film in common...

Don Coscarelli's opus, Phantasm is a horror/sci-fi blend of a series that does not get talked about enough. In this episode, we go through all five films and talk about what we think works and what could have been handled differently.

Your favorite TV show, film or sport is coming out with a video game! "Will it be any good?" is a valid question. In this episode, we look at licensed games that pass the smell test and come with the LMAL seal of approval.

For the second episode in a row, we are introducing something new! This or that is our way of choosing between two things that best represent a certain category. For our inaugural episode in this format, we are choosing sodas! See where we land on your favorite carbonated beverages.

Way back in the third episode of season 1 we looked at our favorite adult animated comedic series. This week, we revisit the topic and see how are tastes have changed and also, how they stay the same. A severe slight is righted.

Akira Yamaoka is one of the most celebrated names in video game soundtracks. This week, Josh attempts to figure out where Jack ranks songs from his collective works. How well does father know son?

In this episode, we finish up a conversation started in the previous offering; placing video games into categories that read like a high school yearbook's superlative section. For those interested in creating their own list like the one we used, here is the link: About Me: Video Games | grids.fun

In this episode, we take a look at ten out of twenty different categories of video games and give our insight into the titles that we think best qualify. There is some definite controversy here, but also some really great games.

With Jack inundated with working on the school play, Josh is once again left to his own devices. In this episode, he talks about the bassists in the genres of rock, funk and jazz that he believes to be the best of the best.

If you've ever played a video game, you know about the big bad...the final boss that stands between you and the end of the journey. In this episode, we look at our favorite encounters and talk about the criteria that we measure these bosses against to determine which ones are truly great, and which ones are simply good.

With Easter in the rear-view mirror, we take a moment to pause and discuss the best of the best in the realm of fictional rabbits. From actual members of genus lepus to humans dressed as such, we are up to our cottontails in bunnies!

Just because a show is targeted toward a younger demographic does not necessarily mean that it's specifically JUST for them. In this episode, we talk about cartoons that we believe are beloved, not just by children, but the adults in their lives as well. Get ready for some bangers, because we've packed this one full of them.

This episode is a two for one! In our second showcase, Jack revisits a topic we last discussed in season 2: films that shouldn't have had a sequel. Jack dips into his vast knowledge of the horror genre and highlights ten films he believes could have survived just fine without a follow-up. If you've ever thought "this series should have stopped with the first one", this is an epis...

Last March, we discussed what constitutes a great film. This March, we are leaning into the horror genre and asking what directors, lead actors, special effects artists and composers would most likely produce not only a horror film, but would drop an absolute banger? Our personal lists are surprisingly different...

We have been promising this for almost a year. From a seed that was planted way back in season three, we are finally bringing to fruition our playthroughs and retrospectives of the two biggest franchises in survival horror video games: Capcom's Resident Evil and Konami's Silent Hill. In this episode, we look at the first three games for both franchises and dole out flowers where they are d...

In this episode, we go all the way back to the 1970's and follow the history of home video games, picking the pinnacle for each generation. There is bound to be some controversy, but we will stand on business with these picks!

We don't often dip into the realm of comics, but in this episode, we jump in feet first and talk about our favorite villains from both the DC and Marvel comic book universes. All of our opinions are based SOLEY on the comic interpretations of the characters in question.

Its our first LMAPL of the season! In this episode, we dive deep into one of Josh's favorite artists of all time as we look at the discography of Michelle Zauner's project, Japanese Breakfast.

The conclusion of our two-part review of the Resident Evil and Silent Hill films! We will also share our favorites and least loved films of each franchise and then put them all in the same pile to give our top tens.

Video game-to-film adaptations are a mixed bag. Two of the biggest franchises to make the leap from console to projector are Resident Evil and Silent Hill. In this episode, we look at the first five live action offerings chronologically from both and give our honest opinions.

We talk about this genre. Like, a lot. In this episode, we etch in stone who we believe to be the best in the game. There are a couple who are (rightfully so) unanimous, but we do have a wild card or two up our sleeves. If you are looking for a place to start your horror journey, we have a pretty solid lineup.

Dead By Daylight is the premier survival horror online experience. In this episode, we discuss both our favorite killers available in the game as well as those we think overall are the best. Hide out until they pass and get ready to work on that generator while you listen to our picks.
