Shoe, I sat down last night and connected through my PS3 to YouTube to watch the Ventriloquist Dummy episode before watching a movie. Of course I fell asleep. I half woke up a few hours later and in that daze of waking dream-like state, there you were eating pizza just sitting there with your friend. It freaked me the fuck out.

That's fucking amazing.

Exactly what it says it was. Us eating pizza for ten minutes.

OK, it just came on on its own, so I never looked at the title, I just dove for the remote and tried to forget it ever happened.

You have your YouTube set to autoplay, probably.

It is what happens.

Pizza. People. Weird happenings.

The YouTube series continues. Just recorded four new episodes tonight. That joins about ten more already in the can.

I enjoy this. It's fun. Mostly because it's hands off for me! I just hang out and talk about fun geeky shit.

We haven't done a comic book episode yet, surprisingly enough. Maybe we should, even though most of my collection is gone.

We kind of followed up on the B-Movies short we did early on, this time watching some of the trailers.

No, it's still not going to offer the insights you folks who know this stuff inside and out want, but it's for sure a lot more fun than the first. I think we're going to play with this format a little more in the future and try to dial it in a little better, because it has potential. I don't want MST3K, but watching for fun and dropping in some info while we do could be a fun approach to take. We have a few more planned for the future.

Just recorded a bunch more content for a bunch more episodes. We're finally sort of starting to feel it and get in the groove. Whether people watch or not remains to be seen, and there are still things to work out -- I'd still like to be a little more informational than we are, I just don't want to lose the looseness -- but the upcoming stuff just keeps getting better I think.

Tonight, we did a few clusters of trailer watching. Don't want to spoil anything, but lots of '80s stuff, and a couple of timed themed things.

I enjoy it. So if nothing else, your many hours of effort entertains me for 10-20 minutes a week.

Live Xmas broadcast set for this Friday night. We're starting roughly 6-7pm EST and will keep rolling until we're done. Dunno, maybe 11pm? Later?

Multiple guests are planned. Some segments, some music, some nonsense. Consider it a badly produced and put together variety show with beer.

I think I'm going to smash some sunglasses. Maybe light some comic books on fire.

On opening night of the new Star Wars film?

I may be able to check it out later in the evening, hopefully around beer 7 or 8.

Nice

I hope you have a AMA portion - someone is going to be checking the comments, right? Or maybe we can call in?

I think this is awesome.

Yep, we'll be reading and responding to the comments all night. We did a small test last Friday and it worked great, so it should be fun.

We may be able to do call-ins, too! Perhaps I can leak my Google voice number to some folks and set something up that way

Looks like tentative start time will be 7pm EST. We'll be running until at least 10-11pm, potentially longer. (I'm betting on midnight.)

I am setting my alarm to make sure I remember to tune in.

I think this should prove entertaining.

The Transformer dude is returning. Bootsy will be there for the entire show. Shoe Jr. may make a late appearance! And a vintage game console collector may be on late, though that's tentative, and he's not bringing the consoles. That's for the future.

It is ice fucking cold up there right now. Holy shit. Brutal.

Nah. I blew a fuse last time I used one, and we'll have lighting, multiple laptops, cameras, and more plugged in as it is.

I turned it off when you guys all agreed that Tim Burton wrote The Nightmare Before Christmas...

After two Sam Adams White Christmas's, I started tuning in again...and I got Shoe to flip me the finger, which is awesome-sauce.

It was a classic moment and I laughed pretty hard at that.

Next morning: I feel awful. Someone must have put something in my drink, because I only had one beer.

Ahhhhh, sure, it just kept magically refilling.

It was awesome, I wish we could have gotten some full on rants going, but it was fun.

Let's go to the video, Stan.

Yes, it seems Shoe had both feet clearly outside the line.

We're very happy with the live experiment -- about 200 people watched in total -- but we also agreed that capping it at 2 hours is the best idea.

For reasons.

Oh, that Tiny Tim.

More board game stuff. This one is, admittedly, not as funny as I'd like. In the future, we're going to try and PLAY the games and teach/learn them together on camera rather than just me yammering about them.

Awesome game, though:

We had a chance to get a sneak viewing of a remake of The Killer Shrews. This version is intentionally ridiculous, schlock that knows and wants to be schlock. Here's our lightweight review:
