Born in the Eighties 17: Zachary Ty Bryan is in Tokyo Drift

You read it! Zach to the T to the B is in Tokyo Drift for some reason. He is also dating the sluttiest girl ever. Adam discusses his shucking and jiving life lessons.  Jon uncovers deep dark secrets of Santa Claus, (yes, again) and Adam fears that things have gone a bit too far off track. Turns out Tokyo Drift is actually pretty watchable, and Little Bow Wow is still a very little person. Jon suspects that he contracted that webster virus. Maybe he was bit by a feral Gary Coleman.

Born in the Eighties 15: The Witches of Lake Waubonga

Our Fourth of July revelry has laid waste to the recording apartment.  Adam discusses the fineries of “Witchering” and how his new promotion is much more exciting than once thought.  Lake Waubonga will be Adam’s camping destination where he will be front captain of the S.S. paddleboat, doing water battle with lake witches.  Jon confuses Sarah Michelle Gellar and Sarah Jessica Parker and remembers the Flight of the Navigator as being a real dick.  Jon and Adam recount famous nightmares, and talk about how scary the grimace is.  Jon talks about his introduction to the dark world of clowning.  2 Words, Poop Steak. 3 Words Boulder Porta-potty Peeper  4 Words, Fake Japanese Pop Idols. 5 Words, Police Taser Middleton Machete Wielding Man.  Watch the documentary “Guys and Dolls”, or you might find yourself in a porta potty at a yoga festival in boulder.  Also, Mr. Peeper’s Penguins is a pretty messed up movie.

Born in the Eighties 14: One Fast Too Furious

Jon, Adam and Lantz decide to sit down and watch all of the Fast and the Furious movies.  It turns out that Lantz hates generic Cuban villains. We reminisce as a dude totally gets destroyed by a semi truck out of nowhere.  The movie turns out to be one big pal-ing around fest where everybody loves each other and nobody dies, except for poor semi truck guy.  Paul Walker apparently is the great white hope in the race driving race wars that apparently occur.  In his sickness Lantz decides to watch “Spanglish”, and he nearly takes a turn for the worse.  The gang also discusses how to make an awesome popcorn action movie, and how terrible the Die Hard trilogy game on PS1 is.  Listen in!

Born in the Eighties 13: For All the Marbles in Pakistan

Things start off pretty morbid as Dr. Death dies.  Jon makes the case for changing a classic phrase to include Pogs, and Adam tells the sordid tale of Jack Kevorkian’s life.  Lantz joins in at the halfway mark and zombies silently protest next to disabled children.  Rabid beavers threaten to devour everyone.  Jon drops some biology knowledge about rabid animals for everyone’s safety. Germans indeed know how to get freaky.  A Teen wolf viral marketer is found growling at police.  Lantz is badgered by scammers Robert Deniro would be perfect for the clown in an IT remake.

Born in the Eighties 12: Showing Your Insides to Little Kids

Apparently all robots hate Jews. Adam wants a prehensile tail, while Jon could go for a genetically engineered tentacle in the center of his chest.  Adam decides that in the awesome future, he will have a clone body, and Jon will become a kick ass robot.  Turns out that Robo-jesus is kind of a dick, and Adam will stop at nothing to crush Jon’s Un-crushable robot frame.  Gamma Rays flood the podcasting room and Jon and Adam are able to choose their own super-powers. Jon is a bit sinister with his super-powered aspirations.  Turns out that Adam is more racist than a robot.  Drunk men are very bad at robbing banks, they should just pass out in their cars.  What is the proper way to throw a small child over a pool of lava?  Adam and Jon take a walk around the wild world of accents, and Adam shows his insides to little kids.

Born in the Eighties 11: Satan’s Extended Warranty

Jon questions the plot of the “The Santa Clause” movie, and how Randy Savage would have made an awesome Santa Claus.  We also discuss how all of Arnold’s bastard children begin their transformation at age 10, and how it is very similar to the movie “Teen Wolf”.  Hulk Hogan’s Heroes get the better of Colonel Klink once again!  It is a felony to photograph whale raping parties. Our two plucky hosts contemplate how the rapture will go down, and how it is fucked up to confess spanking it to some old dude in a robe.  Kirk Cameron makes a deal with the devil, and ponders getting the extended warranty.  Adam also considers how cool it would be to become a demon, though toiling away at Foxconn for a year sounds unpleasant to him.

Born in the Eighties 10: Pig Power!

Pigs become CEOs, and Tag Team sings about them. Yes, Isreal and Palestine are not friends. Lantz and Adam argue about pointless things. Godzilla smuggles drugs into Turkey. The Kessler’s diamond guy is a huge douchebag.  Kessler’s may or may not have the bloodiest of diamonds.  Rubber is apparently the best movie ever made, and Jon can barely wrap his mind around the subject.  Lantz brings news from Canada, and the crew talks about their desert island shows. Lantz and Adam talk way too much about Star Trek minuatae, and Jon about whips a shitty on the podcast. Lantz uncovers who really caused the challenger disaster.

Born in the Eighties 9: The Grease is the Gravy

Thor comes crashing into the room asking whether or not our drinking problem is truly helping the war effort against the frost giants.  A dude runs in while tripping balls on bath salts and not only steals Adam’s innocence, but also runs off with our beloved pet goat named after a children’s TV show character.  It isn’t Lantz’s fault that the guys working the kitchen at the pizza place ruined their computer by watching porn, but he still has to do his laundry in that murder dungeon of a basement of his apartment.  We can all agree that Star Wars would have been 100x more depressing with Christopher Walken playing Han Solo.
