On today’s adventure, Mike from the podcast The Funnie Papers joins us to talk the XCOM series. Like the poet that he is, Mike helps us all see what makes XCOM (especially the mod Long War) a game that even us casuals should give a try. If you like what Mike is selling be sure to check out his amazing Podcast The Funnie Papers about the 90s cartoon Doug.
Special thanks to the 90s; it gave us Doug and XCOM.
This month we shift gears from the wacky antics of Joe Dante to the potent editing prowess of Dede Allen, and what better way to do this than with the 1967 movie Bonnie and Clyde, a masterpiece of editing and style that takes its cues from the French New Wave and gives us a sharp and energetic look at the famous duo. Beatty and Dunaway are absolutely iconic and are joined by a fun ensemble including a young Gene Hackman and a young Gene Wilder.
Friends, we’re in for a treat this coming month!
The Sky Ship Phoenix Blade takes flight, heading back toward Edgewater for supplies and repairs. Along the way Leysa and Taslinn get a chance to take a few members of the crew aside and get to know them better. Fetter gets an unexpected missive from home.
This week on Venture Bros…SNOW! Bryan Dressel, Graham “Brock” Mason, and Matt “Dean Venture” Dykes discuss the penultimate episode of season seven (and possibly the series? At least until there’s more? Please make more?) The Forecast Manufacturer. Both this episode and the finale are deeply connected so advanced warning that there might be some callouts to moments from next week.
There’s also some serious hints to the next show we’ll be doing after we complete Venture Bros. You love to hear it.
