Someone emailed me asking if I knew why Donkey Kong throws barrels and I was like "Well obviously it's because..." and then I wasn't actually sure why, aside from the fact that they roll and would be something you might see on a construction site. Did barrel throwing happen before Donkey Kong?

I got a pebble in my shoe. I took it off to shake it out but added some pebbles instead. After a few minutes of walking, the pain was pretty bad so I threw some pebbles in my other shoe. When it became unbearable, I strapped cheese graters to my feet. Anyway, that’s what watching the news is like.

Look. I still remember running home from the bus stop on Fridays to make sure I didn’t miss the stupid Legend of Zelda cartoon.

Those new movie shots look just fine.

The podcast after the podcast that inspired me to podcast has hit episode 400.

And they spend maybe 5 minutes talking about King Moonracer from Rudolph.
To celebrate our 400th episode, @michaelmay.bsky.social welcomes back @stormspeed.bsky.social, @paxholley.com, and Jeeg to wrap up some Nerd Lunch unfinished business involving Overs/Unders predictions for the proposed Channing Tatum Gambit movie.

In 2020, I was part of a “made for podcast” series that reimagined Die Hard as a Hallmark movie.

Now we’re back to reimagine Die Hard 2 as A Christmas Carol.
A Bomb for Christmas 2: Past, Present, and Future is coming to the Can't Wait For Christmas podcast.
The long awaited sequel answers the question
"What if you combined Die Hard 2 with a Christmas Carol?" Tune in Tuesdays starting November 25th. 💣4️⃣🎄✌🏽#ABombForChristmas2

It was this time last year that I was wholly distracted from pressing project deadlines by making this ragtag troupe. Currently resisting the pull to add new recruites...

On this podcast I mention learning about Weird Al’s “Christmas at Ground Zero” in Nintendo Power’s Mario Paint guide.

A guy made an entire music video for the song in Mario Paint! The only evidence it ever existed is this screenshot. I always wished we could see it.
