Brain Dead Radio Episode 45: The Day The Music Died

[Abraham Smashington]

Rob and Ceej try something different this time in regards to the background music by not having any. They check in with "The Ed Hocken Show", celebrate a birthday, and check out 'Super 8' (SPOILERS 13:05-26:30). They discuss their favorite Spielberg flicks, Rob becomes Jeff Fahey and loves it, and Ceej has problems with Sony. Then, VOICEMAIL!

[B_Metal]

Can't hear shit cap'n!! I tried several methods and it's just not opening/downloading for me.

[Abraham Smashington]

my bad. Should work now.

[B_Metal]

Yes. Corrected situation FTW!

[Ed Hocken]

Listened to a bit of it, it's different without music. But not having it doesn't harm the show. I also enjoyed your comments on the new intro and you're right, it does make me seem like I have a talking head political show.

[B_Metal]

"Ehhh, I don't trust the government." Lulz
"Which means I'm coming back in style" lulz
"I took a bunch in the mouth for you" "I got you a card" Lulz

Also Rob totally was looking for Ceej replacements. Lulz

Giant mutated down syndrome Locke? Total win.


Ok so far the music missing isn't huge but if it's gone on voice mail? I will be a sad.

[Ed Hocken]

It's there for the voicemails.

[B_Metal]

Ehh, that's not the music I'm talking about. I R sad. But I get it. You guys do what you gotta do. Good episode. And Ceej finally having a viable excuse for not watching something was one for the record books.

[Randall]

It's confusingly insulting and flattering to have my intros mocked but then criticized for not having more of myself in them. Bwah??

Anyway, the styles are mostly intentional. Hopefully no one thought using the Duke Nukem theme seriously. Also did anyone recognize the source of the new intro music?

Useless trivia: Bruce Tim, Glen Murakami (the dude who did Ben 10) and Dwayne McDuffy were customers at a store I used to work at. I got hooked up with a number for WB animation to schedule an interview, and couldn't get an appointment because the receptionist was a complete cunt.

"Shout of to my bookshelf." Amazing.

It totally sounds like an intro to a show on FOX NEWS. And Randall, ADD SOME OF YOUR QUOTES to the show. You're the co-host for the most part. I have a bunch of quotes from you that I used for the "Best of the TEHS" skit we did. And it's from Duke? Awesome. We couldn't place it.

[BillyG]

Fuck turning 30. It's so bad. I've had this pressing feeling on my chest since I hit it. If I don't own a sports car by 40 I'm gonna just walk off a ledge.

And Kids In The Hall - you totally got it when it was deal of the day on Amazon didn't you!?

[Abraham Smashington]

I actually didn't. I picked it up at Best Buy. And yeah, the big three zero is freaking me out.

[BillyG]

Ah, I saw the whole KITH on Amazon gold box and my loins ached for it. Wanted so bad. You are a good friend Mr. Hughes.

If you dug the kids and the children film making in Super 8 check out Son of Rambow IMMEDIATELY. It's so great.

[BillyG]

Ceej doesn't like the songs in Animaniacs? WTF then you don't like Animaniacs!

EDIT: Raiders. All day Raiders. I stand by the reveal of Indy being the single coolest shot in cinema history.

[Abraham Smashington]

Yeah, I didn't get the "THE SONGS SUCKED" in Animaniacs thing. Like you said, that was the majority of the show. And Raiders > Temple easily.
