9ES283: We Killed Auril

Posted In: 9ES, Podcast, Podcasting

I apologize in advance for how conceited this next bit will sound.

 

If there was a late-night college radio show that existed in the 90s when I was in high-school (and before podcasts existed) where the hosts just shot the shit and talked about comic books, video games and obscure shit from the 80s it would be my favorite thing.

 

Now I get to make my favorite thing. But you get the pleasure of listening to it.

 

You’re so lucky.

[I think our listeners are used to this by now.  -Jon]

It’s crazy to me that “Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light” has crept up into my mindspace multiple times in the span of only a few weeks. The show only has 13 episodes and was aired entirely between September 20 and December 13. 1987. What a world we live in that this strange little cartoon from over 35 years ago can so easily be consumed any time we want it. I guess the only question that remains is this: When will we set aside 5 hours to marathon the whole thing?

 

Listen up, Jon has been working at his real 9to5 a lot lately and he’s barely had any time off in weeks so guess what? There’s still plenty of time to let us know what movies you want to see get re-ranked on The List so please let us know your picks using this handy little survey. Since we’re too cheap to buy the premium survey features we are making due with what we’ve got so that means you have to pick at least 1 movie from each question, and at most 5 from each. So you need to pick 2 to 10 movies we should consider re-ranking. Use the comment boxes to explain yourself.

 

If this survey is too clunky for you, just find Scott and message him your picks.

 

Or DM us on Twitter, Instagram or FB:

 

Meanwhile over on Garbage Time we talk about the Marvel Snap card Shanna that Scott currently has pinned and then things get real upsetting as we talk about actual alleged Hollywood monsters named Ezra Miller and Jonathan Majors.

 

If all that sounds like the best (or actually, kind of the worst),then show your support and head over to Patreon and subscribe at the 9ES Deluxe tier to listen to this and all past episodes of Garbage Time!

9ES170: Courting Disaster With The BCLTA

Boy I get so excited talking about Dune I forget what I wanted to say and run over my own ideas.

It’s rare that an art enters your life at a critical period, is in fact widely regarded as great, and then grows with age, so that one doesn’t have to regret the nostalgia tainted love.  Like, I was way into Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness: it was my first CD; it got a lot of rotation, but listening back to Billy Corgan’s whines as an adult I cannot but be certain: there is the music of a teenage boy.  Sorry Billy.

Not so with Dune.  On this last reread I think I have absorbed some of the more structural aspects of the work.  Where before the complexity overwhelmed maybe now I see the basic scaffold the sci-fi is clinging to.  I use basic here not in the pejorative sense, but more to imply the fundamental Vonnegut-“all stories follow the same basic shape” shape.  This isn’t a bad thing, more of a broadening sense of appreciation for the storytelling devices.  Like I failed to clearly say in the podcast there’s a core story that’s approachable and recognizable hiding behind the sandworms and witches and time piercing space Jesus.  Rare that a book still presents undiscovered country after a half-dozen rereads.

I hope that wasn’t too pretentious.

Anyway, maybe there will come a time when I will look back on the titanic cynicism of the book, the venom directed at the modern institutions of governance (and messiahs!), and remind myself that cynicism is an expression of naivete and I will be past it like the Litany says.  Or maybe I’ll actually enjoy the 3rd book?

Probably not on both counts.

Posted In: Other podcasts, Pat on the Mat, Podcast, Podcasting

We’re back once again with another great episode of Montreal’s favorite* wrestling podcast: Pat on the Mat! Pat Laprade returns to the airwaves of 9to5 (dot cc) to talk with Walter and I about everything going in in the squared circle. This month’s episode of course talks about the epic finish to WWE’s Hell in a Cell pay-per-view event that featured two great wrestlers from Quebec. We talk about what might be next for Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens, Survivor Series and so much more. We also talk about the octagon a little bit to discuss another local talent, GSP himself returning to UFC to fight Michael Bisping. All this and more!

Stay tuned to the end where Pat, as always, shares which match in the upcoming month he’s most excited for!

Pat Laprade Podcast – Pat on the Mat 6

Posted In: Homepage, Other podcasts, Pat on the Mat, Podcasting

Montreal wrestling journalist Pat Laprade returns yet again to talk all things in and around the squared circle! This time we talk about Pat’s new gig over at TVA Sports where he will be one half of the announce team (along with Kevin Raphael) of an abridged version of Monday Night RAW each week, the finals of the Mae Young Classic, the upcoming WWE Pay-Per-View Hell in a Cell and so much more. Honestly, so much happened between the ropes this month that this episode runs a little long, and we still don’t get to half of the excitement that has gone down this past month.

Enjoy the show!patmat6

9ES108: To All The Depps I’ve Loved Before

9es 108

 

And we’re back with another exciting 9ES.  Good pop on this one, sad news about Prince and Chyna and I feel like by the time I’ve written this the 3rd celebrideath will have occurred.  Or perhaps not, who ever believed in that anyway?

Probably everyone.

I feel like we had a good rhythm on this one.  Maybe it was the two double espressos I had on the way over or the king can of Monster I popped halfway through.  One of life’s mysteries.
