Episode #9- Nostalgia

Episode #9- Nostalgia

Join Rock, Paper and Scissors as they traipse through their days of yore.  For a little while they touch on the media and material indicators that have cycled back from their childhoods.  Each generation has these touchstones, but what of the things that can't be stocked on a store shelf?  What about the sentiment of snow, sledding and snowball fights?  Where did they leave behind the enthusiasm and gratification of a bowl of cereal and a line up of Saturday morning cartoons?  Listen in as these podcasters wistfully wander and wonder.       

Game time- It's all Greek to me

Rock challenges Paper and Scissors to a game of the gods.  Rock will give a Greek god name and Paper and Scissors must give the Roman equivalent in turn.  There seems to be no shortage of clues and hints to aid these mere mortals.      


Dumpster Dives-

Over time the dumpster is filled with forgotten remembrances, idols of sentimentality, and nick-knacks of nostalgia.  These things were toss aside at one time and our formidable podcasters reach back in time, under the couch cushions and behind the cupboard to pull out some once gone gobbets.  Paper waxes on two podcasts.  "In Our Time," with Melvyn Bragg, and "StarTalk,"  hosted by Neil deGrasse Tyson.  Scissors rhapsodizes about The Angry Video Game Nerd Youtube Channel, as well as his website Cinemassacre where he reviews horror movies.  Rock eulogizes the 1990 Akira Kurosawa film, Dreams.

Episode #8- Specter Spectacular


Episode #8- Specter Spectacular

What was that?!  Did you hear that?!  

Never fear listeners, it's just our steady pocasters, Rock, Paper and Scissors.  They are back to bring you some mental meanderings from the spirit world.  Listen in as they gab about ghosts, spill about spooks, account about apparitions, and rap about wraiths.  

Do you believe?

Do they believe?

Doesn't matter.  Either way they'll spiel about spirits. 

Game time- Made up Movember

Paper puts Scissors and Rock to the test of naming mustachioed fictional characters.  Who will properly pick through the prickly upper lips of pop culture? 


Dumpster Dives-

The dumpster can be a dark and scary place.  The shadows and impressions of lost and forgotten things leave an eerie presence, alas, nothing too chilling to keep away our gutsy podcasters.  Rock spots a ghost town of sorts, the likes of which are only kept alive online.  Welcome to Pinepoint.  There are some things that we get rid of on purpose.  Paper explores one such place as he describes a toilet themed restaurant, Modern Toilet.  Scissors circles about and comes back to the main topic with a few spectral movie stories.  Lake Mungo is a quiet but surprising ghost story.  Looking for creepy?  The Changeling, The Devil's Backbone, and The Orphanage will do in a pinch as well. 


(come back for episode 9 where they'll get all nostalgic about their childhoods.)
