Talk Until The Joy is Gone

Picking up something they started way, way back in episode 2 , the boys revist the perrenial favourite Firefly , and once again each pick an episode. This time they picked the two parts of the Niska storyline: The Train Job & War Stories .  But first they took a stroll down the winding avenues of their off-topic conversation, and took in such sigts as physiotherapy, the NFL , space colonies, s...

As we enter the countdown to the 100th episode, we take a little dalliance into the surprisingly dark world of Constantine , via the 2005 film of the same name. But before dipping our toes in the world of the Hellblazer, we first indulge in... well, just chatting and moaning for half the episode! We distill the British psyche down into " Tea and colonisation ", reveal that Reggie is seemingly bein...

For episode 90 we turned to the found-footage monster flick Cloverfield , because who doesn't love a rampaging monster smashing a city up? But before we get to the handheld camera goodness, there's a whole bunch of other stuff to get through, which this week includes: Car troubles The state of the music industry Chupacabra Cave sex/death pacts A Rooney-centric music quiz more ghosts and of course,...

Everyone needs more Arnie in their lives, so this week we took a dive into the Arnold Schwarzenegger buddy cop/school comedy Kindergarten Cop! But obviously we couldn't just stick to that, so we also dabbled in moaning about work, haunted castles, the new TUTJIG Facebook Group, dead drug dealers, Bad Dragon hosting Anne Summers style parties, pre-loved sex dolls, and selling Rooney's bath water! W...

We conclude our own mini-arc this week with our review of Batman: The Dark Knight Returns Pt.2 (we watched the first part way back in November 2020 on Episode 28 ), and are reminded yet again that Reggie is a Batman fan.  Aside from all this violent vigilantism, we also moan about takeaways, moan about Work, discuss the humble Slut Drop, dive beak-first into the "Birds aren't real" consipracy, lau...

Another 3-hour recording this week, as Reggie got a little carried-away with his topics for the intro! We watched Jack Black's hilarious School of Rock, and prefaced a discussion abou the the film and music in general with some chit-chat including: Sex tips from Reggie Queen Boudicca The Loch Ness Monster bad irish accents Reggie's teenager crush (according to Rooney) We plan a film adaptation of...

Having learned nothing from last year's January episodes, the boys once again decided to cover an entire Star Wars series in a single episode, this time the Clone Wars spin-off, The Bad Batch . But before they can get very earnest about another Star Wars property, they have to start the year off in the only way they know how; nonsense, moaning, and smut!! So there's talk of the Christmas special,...

The final episode of 2021, and the Christmas special! Space Monkeys, friends, and family gathered 'round, and subjected themselves to a (mostly) family friendly quiz, overseen by Reggie! Along the way, they covered Robot Jox, Chuck Bass, a found a buzzer, dealt with an anxious Reggie, and ate a lot of pigs in blankets. This was also (apparently) the first non-rigged quiz in TUTJIG history! So from...

The festive season is in full swing, with the boys tucking into the veritable feast of festive shenanigans that is the Christmas classic: The Muppet Christmas Carol ! But because that is way too wholesome and family friendly, they delved deep into the storehouse of smut, and produced what is - somehow - possibly the most offensive TUTJIG episode ever. There's talk of knackered shoulders, how peas...

The festive season starts here for TUTJIG, as the boys get stuck into the festive sequel Die Hard 2 !  But before they get on to John McClane's unique brand of holiday cheer, they obviously have to chat some unrelated nonsense for a while, and this week that includes Rooney being grumpy, Unicorns , festive facts, chemtrails in your turkey, some Tory bashing, and Reggie seemingly not getting any of...

For the start of December, the boys revisited that festive favourite... um... Predator 2.OK, so maybe they didn't realise that this week's episode would be dropping on the 1st of December when they chose the topic, but we'll just ignore that for now! So, aside from complimenting Danny Glover on his ability to mutter angrily, we're treated to another episode featuring Ill Reggie (this time he doesn...

This week the boys watched the Bill Murray classic, Groundhog Day - because who doesn't like a bit of time-looping rodent? Aside from hinting that they would do some really messed-up stuff if they were in his position, the boys also covered a bunch of other subjects. But they started off by moaning like a couple of old men. They then talked about Ector Crank (too nice for TUTJIG), Reggie got super...

This week the boys rallied in the face of adversity, as the Real World intervened and put paid to their plans for a double-guest extravaganza! They watched the Seth Rogen celeb-killing comedy This is the End, which - through the vagaries of their conversation means we need to include two links here: The Cooper Temple Clause, "Who Needs Enemies?": https://youtu.be/QfjiZm_eozE My Chemical Romance, "...

This week the boys had their melons twisted by the rather good Ghosts of War - a film that needs to be watched un-spoiled so badly that they include a massive spoiler warning in the episode (and, we suppose, here as well now)! In addition to that, they also spoke about collaborations with other online folks (name dropping the Sidemen this time!), got all misty-eyed about gigs they used to go to, a...

In episode 78 the boys watch the Will Smith vehicle Hancock, despite Reggie having never seen it until the day before recording! In addition to the somewhat conflicted opinions over the film, they also discuss: Confused at recording Poop! Confused pooping "Notorious gay drug" Poppers Rooney's anger at exorcisms Arguments over superheros It's a real mixed bag this week, but the usual high-brow ente...

The conclusion of the the Zombie-filled Spooky Month sees the boys geeting to grips with Danny Boyle's "not a zombie movie" 28 Days Later . Along the way we discover that Reggie is now so middle-aged that he dreams of weekends away looking at National Trust castles, Rooney is still juvenile enough to mock him for it, and next years Halloween episodes will involve a lot of travelling... They also g...

No, that's not a typo! The boys have followed Dawn of the Dead with Shaun of the Dead , as they continue their zombie-themed Spooky Month ! In addition to the film that starts the Cornetto Trilogy, the boys also chatted about watching TV to fit-in, old Bond films, Reggie's search for good zombie porn, Indonesians exhuming their dead relatives, and Rooney puts out a call for lost episodes of a TV s...

The boys continue their Spooky Month run of zombie films with Romero's 70's classic Dawn of the Dead - despite them feeling pretty zombie-like themselves. Reggie regales us all with talk of witches and yet more ghost sex (after a healthy dose of apologies), they chat about rednecks, shopping, special effects, and reveal that in an apocalypse, Rooney would rather loot a Games Workshop than an Anne...

Strap in for a bumper episode this week, as the boys managed to drum-up over three hours of flim-flam and nonsense - over Skype no less! Ostensibly this week's episode is about the zombie horror-comedy Zombieland, but they went off on tangents (mostly about how ill they've both been). And Reggie brought a bumper intro this week, so they managed to cover: True crime in the form of the enigmatic Sil...

It's been on the episode list since the start, and they've finally done it - thanks to a listener request (see, they really do listen to what the listeners want!). This week the boys watched - and dicussed at length - the 80's childhood classic, The Goonies . However, not content with discussing this solid chunk of nostalgia, they also chatted about chick & waffles, UFO's, the Enfield Haunting...

This week the boys take a look down an alternate leg of the Trousers of Time, as they discuss what could have been them: 40 year Old Virgin! Alongside that, they also talk about getting that Mr Beast money, discuss slavery amongst pirates, uncover hidden trauma from Reggie's childhood, and the Jersey Devil! They also discuss the growing crossover between TUTJIG and Rooney's Twitch streaming effort...

Through a haze of more audio weirdness, the boys get stuck into the Zack Snyder sepia-filtered bonanza; 300. They also veer wildly off-course into talk of dominant women ruining Reggie (sexually), an invasion of critters from the outside, and a shameless name-drop. But before all that entertaining stuff, Reggie reads the contents of the Amelia Earhart wikipedia page in another enthralling installm...

One day, Rooney will stop trying to second-guess which direction episodes will take. He thought he knew (roughly) how this would go, given that they were discussing the 90's low-budget gem, Desperado . What he couldn't have foreseen is that via this gateway to conversation, they'd end-up talking about reports of the Dogman , verbally disembowelling another (thankfully anonymised) podcast, and disc...

Episode 69 (heh, nice) is here, and it brings with it a guest! This week Rooney and Reggie are joined by the legendary Space Monkey No.1 (aka Lou) to discuss his choice of entertainment - the cult satire series garth Marenghi's Darkplace. Along the way they take detours into pay-per-view interactive death livestreams, conspiracy theories (from pizzas to Stargates...) and poaching eggs! One not to...

Note from Rooney: We ran into some technical difficulties (namely a microphone that seems to do what it wants, when it wants, without any indication anything's wrong), so there is some interesting audio. Apologies in advance folks, I did what I could to resolve it, and we'll get it fixed for next week! This week things get nigh incomprehensible, as the boys step back to the turn of the millenium a...
