There are 35 chambers at Shaolin Temple.  This is a well-established fact.  So what could the 36th chamber be?  What a mystery!  Well, if you watch the movie, it's really not a mystery, or even about that chamber, or any of the chambers, or any of the events of the plot.  It's really about watching dubbed-over kung fu men doing bizarre kung fu stuff until the movie stops.  Let's see Citizen Kane do that!

Episode 368 - The 36th Chamber Was the Friends We Made Along the Way

Sorry for the French (and fake French) in the title, but this week's episode is about cinema.  Not just a movie, not even just a film, but cinema.  The only language fancy enough to handle this is French, so you're just going to have to deal with it.  The cinema we're dissecting this time is called, simply, Rad.  My review:  "It is."

Episode 373 - Radicàl:  Un Kino by Hal Needham

It's time once again to debate the sports topics of the day.  Matt doesn't seem to like doing this kind of thing multiple times, since we generally stick to one episode per topic, but what he doesn't realize is that they have to do whatever I want when it's my turn to pick one.

So there.

Episode 374 - All of Our Opinions About Sports Are Still Right

This is like Behind the Music, but it's called Tales from the Tour Bus.  Behind this particular music, much drug-doing happened.  Well, I guess that's true of all music.  Behind all of it, much drug-doing happened.

Episode 375 - For Legal Purposes Let's Call Him Waylond Jennyngs

If you believe in yourself, you can do anything.  This is an idea taught to all children at a young age, and also the dictionary definition of hubris.  What does that say about us?  I don't know about you, but I know exactly what it says because I am not ignorant of anything.  Also, I lied, I DO know about you, and, spoiler alert, it's not great.

Episode 376 - There's Apparently a Downside to Hubris

In this week's episode, we play a rousing game of Produce, Marry, Kill.  Attentive listeners will note that this is actually the THIRD time we've created a game like this (either intentionally or accidentally).  The first two were Fart, Butt, Poop and Holmes, Nemo, Khan.  Yes, those are both real.  You can check out episodes 38 and 76 if you don't believe me.

Episode 377 - This Is How They Made the Original Super Mario Bros. Movie

GOOD NEWS!  Whatever your job is, we're about to improve it.  Unless you're a coal miner or factory worker, in which case you will notice no improvements at all.  Which would be surprising, honestly.  How hard would it be to improve?  I mean, there's kind of nowhere to go but up, right?

Episode 378 - Your Job Will No Longer Suck

Babies are strange, fleshy animals that women excrete every month at the full moon.  We know this, and yet most of us know very little about them.  Are they friend or foe?  Do their mournful cries awaken ancient spirits from beyond the stars, or are they simply a form of ritual intimidation?  What of poop?  Well, my friends, the answers to these, and many more questions, cannot be found in this episode, because that would just be silly.

Episode 379 - Free Baby Advice

I'm sure you're all sick of everyone talking about time travel.  I mean, it's so hot right now.  But unlike everyone else, in this episode we're going to be traveling back in time with a singular purpose in mind.  I won't give it away, though.  Instead, I'll let you guess WHICH infant German leader we'll be assassinating.  I'll give you one hint:  It's not Helmut Kohl.

Episode 380 - Using the Awesome Power of Time Travel Responsibly

In today's episode, we take one of our classic ideas from the primordial days of the podcast and bring it up to date all the way to the 1990s.  And for some reason, when our task was to update an 80s cartoon for the 90s, we decided the best way to do that is to make it like a generic sitcom.  I don't understand it either, but we're the experts, so you may not complain.

Episode 381 - Improving Something No One Remembers

There's only one place to go when an accident happens:  This podcast.  That's right - if you have a debilitating injury, just listen to this episode and you'll know exactly what to do.  I could tell you right here, but then you wouldn't have to listen to the episode.
