Braindead Radio Episode 9: Holodecks & Fleshlights

[Abraham Smashington]

And we're back to ring in the New Year in style with over 140 mins of straight up retardedness. It's 2010 and the flying car is still a goddamn pipe dream. Instead we have waggle controls and fleshlights. We discuss the finer points of our eventual robot overlords using us as fucktoys to power themselves, snuggies for your genetalia, Christmas stories, New Year's resolutions and our top 5 games for 2009. Ceej loves hanging with the gay elves while Rob preferred raiding tombs with Nathan Drake. Then we cap it off with some voicemail!

[Bobby Bear]

Class! Gonna go grab a beverage and get crackin' with this immediately.

[Bobby Bear]

Happy to be the bearer of good news re: the new Blu Dawn. Even though financially the octodip isn't so much fun (except for getting a new version of something beloved.)

Gotta agree with the tough but fair assessment of contemporary Green Day. American Idiot really soured that band for me. As for the Offspring, it's not all bad post-Smash. There's a lot to love about Ixnay On The Hombre ("All I Want", "The Meaning of Life", and "I Choose", notably.) But yes, "Gone Away" was a lumbering, hollow ploy for "maturity." Like "Adam's Song" by Blink 182, really.

[Abraham Smashington]

Concurred. That's actually a pretty good comparison.

[Bobby Bear]

Thanks, mate. Great show, by the way. Hopefully, Cj will get more involved with the boards. I can appreciate keeping a low profile, though. Looking forward to the tackling of gravedigger's excellent question already.

[Abraham Smashington]

Thanks sir. Hopefully next episode we can dive into grave's question. He always does that when he calls in.

I love "All I want", but then I like "Million Miles Away".

[Bobby Bear]

I love "All I want", but then I like "Million Miles Away".

There are worse offenses in the Offspring's canon. I'll always have a soft-spot for "All I Want" because it was one of the first songs I learned on bass.

For me, it's because it's the first song you hear out of the gate on Crazy Taxi.

[Abraham Smashington]

The song I hate probably the most by them is still Come Out and Play. FUCK THAT SONG.

[Nathan]

Holodeck works by using mini-tractor beams.

[Abraham Smashington]

NERD ALERT.

Ok, so a tractor beam keeps me in place the whole time then?

[Nathan]

I think. I read it in a book a long time ago.

[nerdious dorkus]

NERD ALERT.

Ok, so a tractor beam keeps me in place the whole time then?

If that's so, I want a tractor beam just so I can finally break dance.

[Bobby Bear]

A Smash fan who doesn't like "Come Out and Play?" It's far from my list of favourites from the band, but that's a definite first.
