Episode 33 Part One: The Goddamn Batman

Welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" Emerge from the shadows and listen to a couple of guys nerd out over a man in a batsuit. Yeah, they should be ashamed, but are they? Come on...you know better than that. 

In this episode, the guys break down the newest take on the Caped Crusader, "The Batman," in a way only the ManCave can. CraigMakk explains how he has perfected the art of projecting the projecting; Serious Jest admits that he absolutely meets the criteria of being a podcast co-host; and first-time special guest "Brian Brian" brings the all-new category of "Snow of the Show" like a goddamn gangster. In addition, you'll hear the guys discuss whether Riddler had adequate reasons to kill the upper class; dissect the ideas of vengeance versus hope versus justice; the theology of the Batman; plus, drink some pretty bad-ass alcoholic beverages and try to keep things on track (especially Brian...hard liquor is a rough mistress when podcasting). 

So, strap in, grab yourself a beer, and welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" Because red filters on everything may not make a movie better, but it sure does make it look more red.

ManCave at Midnight- Book 2: Psalms, Chapter 2

Welcome back to "ManCave at Midnight," brought to you by the creators of the world-famous* "Live from the ManCave!!!" podcast! Seriously, for such a small town, there sure are a lot of secrets. Sounds like just the place for people who like this podcast! 

In the second chapter of episode 2, the guys continue to tear into Book 2: Psalms. Throughout their conversation, CraigMakk shows off his insufferable 'I listen to lyrics and say semi-insightful things' schtick once again; Serious Jest takes another opportunity to make everyone uncomfortable by sharing what makes a 'Serious Jest-kind of lady;' and very special (now pretty much a regular) guest Mork is once again way too smart for these guys by actually sharing educated thoughts on the directorial magic of this show (why he wastes his time with these guys, no one will ever know). And they obviously continue to imbibe outstanding alcoholic beverages. So, strap in, grab yourself a beer, and welcome back to "ManCave at Midnight!" And be glad you're not going to hell like these two.

Episode 32: The Dark Side of Christmas - Part One

Welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" And Happy GODDAMN New Year! 2022 can't possibly be worse than last year, right? Right?!?!? Please be right.... 

Anyway, the guys got together just before Christmas to celebrate an age-old holiday tradition, one that they have respected and honored since time immemorial. That old tradition of getting together over the Internet, arguing about nonsense and Christmas movies, getting wrecked, and passing out in front of their laptops! Even better, they resurrected an old ManCave favorite: Jim Sardonic!! (Just kidding, he's not thaaaat old. They actually invited Jim on then forced him to enjoy the return of "WATCH THAT SHIT!!!" It was a helluva night.)

In this holiday-themed episode, the guys finally get to talk some shit about their WTS choices from approximately 100 years ago. In Part One, they discuss and rate the 1974 'classic,' "Black Christmas;" talk a lot about weed (medicinal and otherwise); discuss the value of older filmmaking techniques; and get a laugh out of Jest's ability to cellar water. Oh, and they definitely enjoy some bangers. So, sit back, grab yourself a beer (or edible), and welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" And welcome to the New Year, please don't mess this one up like you did last year. (You know what you did.)
