As you know, the game comes up regularly on the show, and you can't play along if you don't know the rules.  Join us, won't you, as we plumb the salty depths of the malty seas, drinking deep of the bounty of
good times and good-natured fellowship that is the SOS home game. You'll find out a little history behind the canonical rules, and a little bit about the genesis of the show itself.  Keep your favorite beverage handy as we take you through each electrifying entry.


Summer of Slam Drinking Game

Happy Halloween from the D and the B and all the interns and everyone else here at Studio B's famous "Beehive".  We hope you are as excited as we are as this most orange of all months reveals it's mysteries to us.  This Time the Third Aside crew is focusing on Halloween, of course, and we'll set the mood with some classic (and some "not so" classic) Halloween media, and also talk a bit about the holiday and why we love it, and why you probably should too. It'll be a spook-tacular time for everybody, no DEAD air here, and you can take that to the bank.  the BLOOD bank!  Pleasant screams, boys and ghouls...

A Third Aside Halloween

Wham-Bam Summerslam! The Summer of Slam is back again with your intrepid hosts Dangerous D, and the man known only as "The B". Tonight's action packed events will be called by a legendary trifecta consisting of: the voice of the people Gorilla Monsoon, The heel appeal of Bobby "The Brain" Heenan, and the fired-up "Hot Rod" Roddy Piper. Wedding bells are in the air, and you are cordially invited to witness with us the blessed union into holy matrimony of "mr and mras macho themselves, Randy Savage and the lovely Elizabeth. But not all is bliss and nuptuals, because looming over the horizon is a dark cloud; a cloud of strife known only as the Trangle of Terror.  Can the Immortal Hulk Hogan and the Ultimate Warrior stand up against yet another foriegn menace and bring home redemption and glory for our country, and hulkamaniacs worldwide? In these, the waning years of Rock- n'-Wrestling, this twilight of the gods, there hangs in the air a tangible anticipaion of the New Generation to come, while still the old ways burn bright in the sky, like the fury and heat of a dying supernova. So strap in, get ready, and dont neglect your liquid stockpile for the famous SOS Home Game.  Thanks for joining us yet again, and see you on the other side...

Summer of Slam 1991

A Third Aside podcast is our candid exploration of the sometimes ridiculous, but always fascinating, shared culture. Your hosts, the D and the B, will take you on an irreverent and opinionated tour of whatever we feel is most important for you to learn and laugh about on any given day. We will bring you what an abundance of over-analysis both insightful and trivial, making the ephemeral into philosophy, and philosophical into ephemera. So come climb the mountains and molehills with us, as we sweat the small stuff so you don't have to.
