The Gobeski/Wallace Report Podcast

Live from Eastern Wisconsin, it's the 18th installment of our Merry Marvel Movie March and we're reviewing "Blade: Trinity"! Just because we're all in the same room doesn't mean we're watching the highlight of the series - not by a long shot! We discuss the bright spots (Parker Posey, HHH) and the bad stuff (everything else). But hey, this at least gave Ryan Reynolds some practice for "Deadpool",...

Shenani-online-za? Not quite, but the boys get in some good bits! We learn Tony's origin story. Paul comes up with a brilliant business model; retro gaming is so IN right now! And we all talk a bit more about birds than is healthy.

Much like Peter Parker, we have the responsibility to continue our Merry Marvel Movie March with our 17th installment - "Spider-Man 2"! We compare villains with the first film, discuss what parts are more Raimi-esque, and nitpick the CGI. And we list ALL the cameos in excrucuating detail!!

Happy Joe Piscopo Day, fellow Piscopolians! Even if your birthday isn't in June, feel free to celebrate with us by eating Piscopopcorn, reciting various monologues and... talking to clones? OK, Cloney Huff isn't exactly "on-brand" for Piscopo Day, but just roll with it!

We have a contender for worst Marvel movie when we review the 2004 film "The Punisher", but we promise our episode is still entertaining! Charlie is upset that John Travolta refuses to act, Adam is upset that bad guys don't get killed enough, and Doug is upset with the act structure. Paul just seems to be really loud for some reason.

Somehow most of us bros aren't familiar with the "icing" phenomenon, but we will be after this episode! Then we learn about "mod boxes", so it seems like Paul's plan to have us discuss things outside of our wheelhouse was successful. Also, we have an actual serious conversation about the future of physical media in the age of streaming.

Installment 15 of our Merry Marvel Movie March continues with Ang Lee's 2003 film "Hulk". Charlie takes issue with all the angry acting... in a Hulk movie. And everyone has a lot to say about Ang Lee's use of unique scene transitions. Does this movie mutate into an artistic success, or shrink into a small Eric Bana in huge shorts?

We start the whole dang thing over again, and only keep the good bits! So naturally we take the opportunity to talk about video games and movies. More specifically, the video games we regret not finishing, and Steven Spielberg's recent dig against Netfilx. But will Doug be upset now that his episode count has been reset? Wait, who's Doug...?

Paul brings in a very special guest off the street, a very recognizable but unique guest! We follow that up with a very mild segment of "Chippin' with Charlie". And have you ever wondered if Ted Cruz could fend off three man-eating snakes single-handedly? Well wonder no more! Plus, we get a debriefing on "Star Trek: Discovery" and Netflix's "The Punisher".

Merry Marvel Movie March Madness ends with a bang and our 14th installment of the series, the 2003 movie "X2". We talk new characters, old characters, villains and similarities between this film and "X-Men". We all have positive things to say, but that begs the question: is this the highest rated MMMM movie yet? WARNING: This episode contains some material that may be offensive to the alt-right!

Merry Marvel Movie March Madness continues with the 13th in our series, the 2003 movie Daredevil - both the theatrical version AND the director's cut! We discuss the murderousness of Ben Affleck, the prominence of Jennifer Garner's bust, and how Colin Farrell steals the show. And does the director's cut improve this movie at all? We discuss it!

Doug and Paul join us for the 12th installment of our Merry Marvel Movie March to gab about Men in Black II. We're mostly just as disappointed now as we were back when it was first released, but are a little bit happier with the music. And what does that locker scene imply about the nature of our universe? We decide that's a dumb question and talk about Patrick Warburton instead.

We got together with frequent collaborator Paul Wilcox to start a new podcast idea... but we got distracted and recorded this podcast first! We start off with a Gobeski Chocolate Report trifecta, transition to Lego and game console talk, and end up talking about our worst movie theater experiences ever. And yep, MORE BOSS BABY!

Finally we get to the 2002 blockbuster Spider-Man, and this may be our best reviewed movie yet! The same cannot be said of the Chad Kroeger song from the OST. We talk cameos, teen angst and all of the businesses that must share the same building as that "underground" wrestling enterprise. And did Peter Parker have a plan when he returned Norman Osborne's body to his home for Harry to find? We spec...

It may be a month late, but we finally talk about Christmas presents! We geek out over board games, Blurays and a "Houndabout", but it turns out only Alex knows the true meaning of Christmas and has "given of himself" for the holidays. Additionally, we give our thoughts about the newest installment of the Star Wars saga, "The Last Jedi". Again, Alex has the interesting take as he disliked the movi...

After a holiday hiatus, we resume the Merry Marvel Movie March with the film "Blade II". In between actual commentary, we create a title for our DC Movie March (which we'll never get to) and the discuss the cinematic world of Guillermo del Toro. Plus we know who Ron Perlman is... but what was he in?

The boys were supposed to talk about "Blade 2" but get a little sidetracked. Right Said Fred plays a pivotal role in our conversation, unsurprisingly. We discuss Vice Presidential tattoos and Paul takes a long time to put on his pants. A REALLY long time...

We finally make it to that milestone episode 100, and we've got lots of guests and topics. Charlie sings the longest song he's sung by far, we tell bad jokes and remember discontinued foods of the past. But we mostly talk about "Boss Baby".

We keep on ice-road truckin' with installment 9 of our Merry Marvel Movie March when we review the 2000 film "X-Men". This may actually be the first movie that ALL the participants have actually seen before! We really dissect the TWO lines Joss Whedon has a hand in crafting, which represent the dizzying highs and cringiest lows of script. And we of course start out with a little "Chippin' FOR Char...

We welcome old (but good) friend Dan Hess to the podcast. We argue about who has been friends with Jason the longest, how to arrange your music collection, and linguistic anomolies. Plus, we realize we were cyber-bullies all along.

We start to get to the good Marvel movies with the 8th entry in our Merry Marvel Movie March with the 1998 movie "Blade". Listen to our thoughts on the action movie that helped kickstart the rejuvenation of comic book films! Plus we discuss Ted Cruz's now-infamous porn retweet, and Charlie reminisces about the movie "Convoy"!

We welcome author and longtime friend Amber Elby to the show to discuss her new book "Cauldron's Bubble" (if she'll ever let us start the show). Her novel is set in the world of Shakespeare's plays, but it seems as though Adam has never read anything before 1950. But seriously though, we've both read the book and genuinely enjoyed it; check it out!

Adam, Charlie and Alex celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Gobeski/Wallace Report, and we reminisce about old episodes (but not to worry, this is no "clips show"). And they attempt to do every previous segment (that they can think of). And there's one segment that Charlie has to do 5 times (you know the one...).

"Nancy" and "Anne" Wilson of the band Heart join us to discuss their past turmoil and future projects. Charlie recounts his story of a creepy vacation house, Dan Baker tells us about his "normal" life and Paul explains the internet.

Installment 7 of our Merry Marvel Movie March is a breath of fresh air, the 1997 film "Men in Black". Brianne reminisces about seeing it in theaters, Paul fidget spins and Adam is frustrated that no one remembers 90's fashion. But which Marvel Movie song is the best so far? There are a surprising number of contenders!
