Star Trek novelist David Alan Mack

Craig is away on assignment this week (read: vacation), so our fearless film critic Tim fills in as guest announcer. We are talking Star Trek this week with author and screenwriter David Mack. And Tim and Kevin discuss Skinamarink... the horror... the horror.

Beth Lapides, the godmother of alt. comedy

It's the first episode of 2023! Craig and I discuss the women in my life, then Beth Lapides talks about her new audiobook. Our film critic Tim dives into the controversy of "The Whale," and I discuss one of many reasons to dislike Adam Sandler.

It's a very special Get Off My Lawn Christmas episode featuring screenwriter David Steinberg

Deck them halls, trim those boughs of holly, and join us for our very special Christmas episode. There will be caroling, story-telling by the fire, a visit from St. Nicholas himself, and interpretive dance (luckily, this is not a video podcast, or the dancing would scar you for life). Joining us to talk about writing and lawyering is David H. Steinberg. Then Tim reviews the Avatar sequel, or he tries to but Kevin keeps interrupting. There may or may not be an Easter egg after the credits, though considering the season, maybe it should be called a Christmas egg?

Broadcaster Mark Thompson of KGO, KFI, and YouTube fame

Broadcasting legend Mark Thompson discusses moving "The Mark Thompson" show from terrestrial radio to online live-streaming. We also discuss the pitfalls and challenges of working in "new media." Also, Announcer Craig and I desperately 9almost pathetically) try to get Volvo to sponsor the podcast.

Mark Thompson from "Mark and Brian"

We've got Mark Thompson from the Mark & Brian radio show to talk about his new book and the state of broadcast radio. Hooty hoo! Even if you didn't listen to M&B, Mark has had a unique radio career, and it was an amazing opportunity to chat with him. But wait... there's more! Act now, and you can also listen to our film critic Tim discuss the latest Will Smith movie and the Knives Out sequel... that's two reviews for the price of none! And there may or may not be a few Easter Eggs for M&B fans along the way. Be good humans!
