197 - You Know What Clenses The Mind From Witnessing A Near-Death Moment? Go On A Cruise!

A podcast before a cruise? Oh you know it had to be done! Bryan and Mario give you all another rousing episode before the high seas call our Argentinean man to the shores of south Europe. Mario can't go on his first European excursion without giving us a story on how he witnessed a near-death situation on the road, and how he was having an internal discussion with himself about whether or not that high school girl kind of deserved what happened when you try to beat traffic crossing the street. The guys are also recommended to check out some video games that are so off the wall and crazy, that city governments banned them! Will they still search for them to add to their collections? It may not be a zero percent chance. Plus, Forza Horizon 6 is finally making it to the public, where the dreams of driving and drifting your way through Japan are realized. Just how many hours will be logged until GTA 6 is released? There was some utterly jaw-dropping moments in English lower league soccer, teaching a new follower the ways of our sound effects, and Bryan providing us with some low frame rate action on camera. All this and more from a podcast going on a short break while cruising across the Mediterranean Sea!

196 - A Tornado Makes a Late-Night Visit to See Us…

Mother Nature has been bringing the severe weather to Michigan a ton lately, so much so that tornadoes in the middle of the night are waking people up, just like what it did to Bryan this week! A small tornado touched down within walking distance of his apartment, and Bryan describes on this week's episode his action plan once he woke up to the sounds of sirens and his phone going nuts. Also on this new recording, the guys go over all of the biggest announcements at CinemaCon, with among others Call of Duty announcing a movie, Space Balls 2 putting a title to their long-awaited sequel, and the upcoming Avengers movie dropping a sick teaser. Plus, has the fallout from the sneaky Arizona resort pictures gotten to Dianna Russini, will Project Hail Mary's continued run at the theaters bring Mario and Bryan back to watch the amazing film again, and how on Earth did the upcoming Avatar: The Last Airbender movie get leaked on Twitter (not saying X because it's still dumb)? All in all, another Legal Aliens Podcast episode that is sure to provide the laughs, confused questions, and riveting commentary.

195 - The Search For $500 Poopbox Vehicles!

With Bryan last year scoring an amazing deal on a Ford Focus ST that needed work for $500, Mario uses this podcast as an excuse (and with a burning desire) to try to find a sweet ride online around the same price that hopefully isn't destroyed, very sketchy, or just a shady dealer being untruthful with their listings. Also on this week's show, as the boys were recording this episode, NASA has a successful mission end with the Artemis splashing back down on Earth, and they ponder what the next trip to space will entail. Are we going to colonize the moon? Will Mars be our next stop, despite the three-year round-trip? Plus, the discussion of combining your work life with your personal one as the news of someone playing I Spy scooping pictures between a well-known sports journalist and NFL head coach becomes the big story. Inching closer to that epic episode 200. Come for the madness.

194 - Big Bird Almost Traumatized Millions of Children in the 80s

Another week, another international conflict that gets closer to its apex. Bryan and Mario decide why let that and some initial copyright issues uploading this episode stop them from bringing this to the masses? The guys are suggested to look into a very intriguing conspiracy theory regarding the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster: did Big Bird cause that to happen? Was the iconic Sesame Street character supposed to be on that ill-fated launch? It's a topic tailor-made for this podcast, so we obviously had to check it out. Plus, Bryan leans Argentina for wanting their new World Cup jersey, a deep dive into Need for Speed Nintendo DS game ratings, and is Mario speaking facts about purchasing sports jerseys straight from China and not worrying about the long shipping wait? This episode is another one closer to 200. Still just as random, confusing, and wild as one may expect. Welcome in.

193 - This Podcast May Become Need for Speed Themed

Bryan and Mario are back in front of the mic this week and doing what any well-prepared professionals would do—going through an interesting yet chaotic guest list document they've written, and realizing they may have accidentally included voice actors from half the golden era of Need for Speed. At this point, a full pivot to a racing podcast feels inevitable. Mario later gets to jump on his soapbox (again) for the PWHL’s return to Detroit, declaring—loudly—that women’s hockey belongs in the Motor City, and honestly, he’s not wrong. Also on this episode, are podcasts becoming overwhelmed by famous people and there are not enough average Joe's starting one? And how has this resulted in outrageous production costs and less heart and soul put into crafting something fun. Plus, the guys rave about the Project Hail Mary movie, seriously consider breaking up with Netflix over its prices, and remind everyone that Justin Long is an American national treasure who crushes it in whatever role he gets.
