Mike Russell gives a peek into his idea of pure masculinity by touting the bad-ass powers of The Green Machine. After a small minute or two soaking in the nostalgia bath of the late 70's and the media's attempt to coerce children into vehicular manslaughter, "The Last Exorcism" is reviewed, and Rumor Control steps in to explain why about 2/3rds of the movie news you're hearing is overexaggerated press-release pablum. Other topics include - how to successfully interview James Cameron, what Expendables 2 needs to do in order to succeed, and various nerdfights breaking out into a cacophony of limp-wristed slaps and grunts.

Adam Rosko (Captain Kirk) and Jesse Graff (Mr. Spock) return to the show to send off Season 2 of Trek in the Park. What changes are in store for the Bagdad performance, why they chose the episodes they chose, and why they DIDN'T do what almost always happens when stuff is adapted to the stage: Shove some songs in it, camp it the hell up, and wipe your ass with the material. Other topics include - how to successfully survive the geek trivia minefield, Why the Next Generation isn't making it to the park anytime soon, Indiana finally slaps some sense into its old people, and a surefire way to ensure you're NEVER getting a card at christmas.

Aaron Duran defends his voluntary drinking of malt liquor that even bums don't drink unless they absolutely have to. And then he talks about one of the finest graphic novels ever created: Warren Ellis and Darick Robertson's "Transmetropolitan." Plus - more insight into Mr. Duran's prior work history, and his more Durden-like abilities. Other topics include - Sarah Palin gets in a twitter fight, Inception incites a wave of smartypants reactions, The existential horror of the Lois & Clark pilot episode, and how to tell what parts of Die Hard are a dream, and what are real.

Aaron Duran survives a rough weekend of Pirate deployment and soul-theft. Still a better job than his one-day stint as a gay phone sex operator. He also reviews Brian Michael Bendis' latest crime epic, discusses the necessity of Norton as Banner, and smashes down with full force on the panic button Facebook just installed on their site. Other topics include - Switzerland gets crossed off the government's Christmas Card list, Cleveland suffers a real tragedy this weekend and it has nothing to do with basketball, and tales of the greatest hater in the world.

Boldly Go with Adam Rosko and Jesse Graff (Capt. Kirk and Mr. Spock, respectively) of Trek in the Park: Space Seed. Mike Russell is on hand to illustrate, interrogate, and illuminate as to why and how this theater troupe decided to fly the enterprise straight through the Portland theater scene. Mike also reviews Predators, and talks about the benefits of taking things back to basics, and ignoring the years of GARBAGE that's come out since Schwarzenegger's trip to the jungle. Other topics include - The Death of James Bond, You can't trust anyone who uses Comic Sans on their important documents, and beware Big Baby.

Courtenay Hameister brings toys and visual aids to help any male listeners to realize that vibrators are NOT the enemy. Cort and Fatty reciprocate by trying to intellectualize the act of getting kicked in the balls. Truly, a conversational geyser of highbrow insightfulness. Other topics include: Arizona finally gets sued for their immigration law, Glenn Beck starts a university - no, seriously, he did - Fatty's failings as an Actor, and his purpose on earth as set forth by The Lord God, The coming mosquito plague, and Cort's days as a fratboy.

Cort and Fats: Solo. WTF does that sort of show even SOUND like anymore? You'll remember within the first 5 minutes, as Cort trainwrecks a TFAW ad with visions of horrific stabby weaponry, which of course, logically transitions into a discussion about WinCo's produce triage, which then bounces over to discussions as linear and easy to follow as: Correct Ketchup Usage, The Fox 12 Weatherlady's horrible taste in jackets, live, real-time show criticism, Whale Poop, Portland's sad, hypocrisy-filled hippie history regarding institutionalized racism, Star Trek movies, What not to wear, and the announcement of yet another new weekly guest.

Whatever a gamut is, Cort and Fats run it today. Wes Anderson and ruminations on what makes a Children's film a Children's film, The Afghanistan speech and whether Obama really IS like Spock, more crap regarding Tiger Woods' dumbass "apology," whether the term "Gay elves" is redundant or not, and whether they're worth this years holiday gift controversy, The latest miracle weight loss drug, and apparently, Alanis Morrisette is a member of the X-Men.
