9ES335: Bringing Quaid Back

by jorn on May 2, 2025 at 10:04 pm

Who would have thought that electing the party lead by a 60 year old white banker-dude was the result I would be happiest with?

How far we have fallen. As predicted the NDP now have less than 10 seats which I only found out today is the lowest number of seats they’ve ever had since they became a party. Tommy Douglas is rolling in his grave.

All three of us probably enjoyed the 2007 film “Hot Rod” more than most people. I was an OG Lonely Island fan so I’m one of the few people who even saw it in theaters (I may have even been at an advance screening if I remember correctly). It’s certainly not for everyone, but it is certainly for us.

Honestly that’s most of what we talk about in this episode. Hot Rod and the Canadian Election. The Canadian Election and Hot Rod. Perhaps those two things are not so different? Now I want to see Mark Carney punch dance.

Anyways – over on Garbage Time, we play a game of “Fuck, Marry, Kill” with the main-event wrestlers of Night 1 of WrestleMania Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and CM Punk. Our answers will shock you! Maybe. We then discuss how we should make meme movies and finally we get into the NHL Playoffs and the Montreal Canadiens.

9ES332: Now Lets See Paul Atreides Card

by jorn on March 21, 2025 at 10:58 pm

Posted In: 9ES, Podcast, Podcasting

9ES is back at full strength to talk about comics, movies and video games old and new like Mickey 17, Dune 2, Street Fighter 2: Turbo, Mortal Kombat 2 and of course the appointment of our new Prime Minister Mark Carney.

♪”One of these things is not like the other…”♫

Politics and pop culture combine! Form of podcast!

I think we talk about The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl once every 10 episodes or so and with good reason. She’s such a weird part of the Marvel Universe that is pretty much delightful every time. Honestly if you’re a fan of Marvel weirdness you should do yourself a favour and check out Marvel’s Squirrel Girl: The Unbeatable Radio Show! It’s only a handful of episodes and well worth your time.

You know what’s maybe not worth your time? The latest from Bong Joon-Ho “Mickey 17”. Mickey 17, frankly, is a movie with too many ideas. I will always have time for people making weird movies and even more so when they’re high profile. A recent Oscar winning director and Batman himself teaming up to make a weird movie about space exploration and printing out expendable humans should be my jam but it fell a little flat. Apparently it’s coming out as early as next week on streaming so maybe you’ll have the chance to judge for yourself sooner than later.

Anyways – over on Garbage Time, the gang reminisces about what it was like to wake up hungover in unfamiliar parts of Montreal and figuring out how to get home on public transport in the era before smartphones. We’ve also watched a couple of indie horror flicks like One Cut of the Dead and Companion and a few podcast recommendations for sleepytime listening.
