Wed, 2 December 2009 Hi gang. Here's episode sixty eight. Not much happened in the last week worth talking about, but we make the best of it anyway. We discuss what little new T.V. there was that we watch. Some from last week, some from this week. We talk a little about new and old movies that we watched. We go over a list of upcoming theatrical releases, from January through May and realize, we need to catch up on trailers! We have a little bit of audio from a source that is notoriously difficult to capture on tape, so please bear with the quality. Then we discuss the quittiest quitter that ever quit and a few other topics. We have some email and that pretty much makes up the whole show! Music this week is from: Dethklok - "The Gears" Wall of Voodoo - "Mexican Radio" Rob Zombie - "Sick Bubblegum" The Brian Setzer Orchestra - "You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch" Call us at 206-338-3094 or write us at areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com Thanks for your support and we'll talk next week! |
Wed, 25 November 2009 Episode Sixty Seven: "All I asked was sixty-seven million, and he said "okay."" In this episode, we discuss topics ranging from abortion to the T.V. show Glee. First, we start off with our usual wrap up of what we watched the previous week. This includes Glee, The Office, Big Bang Theory, Mad Men, Parks and Recreation, Community, V and a few other shows, as well as Frank's review of Precious. Next, we get into the current events portion of the show. Health care is discussed, however briefly, followed by a small discussion of "She who must not be named" and her new book. Then we move into territory that caused us to get a bit more animated. The first is whether we should commit more troops to Afghanistan. The second point had to do with the trial of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed taking place in New York. We get quite riled up and have a lively discussion about the pros and cons of these two events. Next up, we delve into listener feedback. We get a few good e-mails and one really confusing voice mail, but keep them coming! Music this week is from: Faith No More - "The Cowboy Song" D.R.I. - "Suit and Tie Guy" Collective Soul - "Shine" Sublime - "Hong Kong Phooey" Plus, stay tuned for a very special cameo appearance after you are asked "are you still there?" You won't regret it! Well, maybe you will. Call us at 206-338-3094 or write us at areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com |
Wed, 18 November 2009 In this episode, we focus a bit more on entertainment than we usually do in other shows. We cover Big Bang Theory, The Office, V, Parks and Recreations, Community, Glee, Star Wars Clone Wars and a few others. We take a specific interest in the portrayal of Luminara Unduli and her relationship with her padawan Bariss Offee and contrast her with the other Jedi fighting in the clone wars. Then we discuss some douche-bags. Nothing all that ire inducing really. Just a few things that are mildly bugging us this week. We get to the voice mail eventually, as you will hear, and then call it a show. Music this week is from: Helmet - "Milquetoast" Simple Plan - "American Jesus" Pennywise -"500 Miles" At least, I think those are the artists that recorded these songs. Although, I am sure about Helmet. Call us at 206-338-3094 or write to us at areyouseriouspodcast@gmail.com Till next week! |

Sun, 8 November 2009 Hi everyone, El and I know that this will not be an episode for everyone. We discuss some of the problems that people encounter that could result in an abusive relationship. This can be a touchy subject and a potentially dangerous one as well, but one that we felt should not be ignored. We discuss what could constitute mental and psychical abuse and how to identify the signs. Since every relationship is different, we talk in broad strokes about identifying behaviors. During the show, we list off some phone numbers and websites that could be helpful if you find yourself in an abusive situation. They are: http://www.helpguide.org/mental/domestic_violence_abuse_help_treatment_prevention.htm A non-profit resource Rape Abuse and Incest National Network http://www.helpabusedwomen.org/ Call 1-800-547-1649 National Domestic Violence Hotline 1.800.799.SAFE (7233) 1.800.787.3224 (TTY) Anonymous & Confidential Help 24/7 Always keep in mind that you can talk to your Doctor, Clergy, or the Police among others if you need help. To our international listeners, I apologize for not listing sites to help you in your own country, but you could talk to the above mentioned people and they can point you in the right direction. You don't need to stay in an abusive relationship. You deserve to be happy and safe. Leaving may very well be the most difficult and terrifying thing you ever do, but it will be worth it to put that part of your life behind you. No one should live in fear. If you know of other places that should be added to our list, please e-mail them to: twomarriedgeeks@gmail.com you can also call us at: 206-309-9178 the links will be posted on our blog: If you think that this show could help someone, by all means burn it to a CD and have them listen to it. Until next week, thanks for your support. |
Wed, 4 November 2009 Hello everyone! Here is episode Sixty Four for your listening pleasure. This week, we decided to forgo notes and just wing it. You think we could do that considering all the time that we have been doing the show. Well, you might be surprised how much two simple words on a piece of paper would have helped us this week. Those words? "Koi pond." Anyway, this week we discuss the normal things, a little T.V. (including the pilot of "V," some current events, and some complete jerks. Then we listen to some listener feedback and try to wrap up the show. It's kind of a disjointed ending, but it does eventually come to a close! Don't forget to follow this link to witness the comedy genius that is JACK CHOP! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADqAWUoVtbs Is the Lynn reference at the end a nod to Outside the Cinema? Maybe... but do you think I would have mentioned it if it wasn't confirmed? While you're at it why not check out some of the other movies that Adam Green and Paul Solet have made? Movies like "Hatchet" and "Grace." Thanks to everyone who nominated us for a podcast award, we'll know what came of it in a few weeks! Please, head over and vote for us on podcastalley: http://www.podcastalley.com/podcast_details.php?pod_id=63603 Thanks!

Wed, 28 October 2009 Welcome again to another "wonderful" episode of Are You Serious? In this episode, we keep to the same formula that seems to have been working all along for us. - First up - Discuss some recently seen T.V. and movies. - Second up - A little bit of randomness mixed in with who we have selected as our douche-bag(s) of the week. - Third - Mixed in with the listener feedback, we usually discuss some more things that don't really have a place in the show. - Fourth - We list off the contact information and close out the show. - Fifth, after the closing song ends, we try to put something funny or weird at the end. - In between all that other stuff, we have commercials for other shows that we really like, followed by music.

Sat, 17 October 2009 Two Married Geeks Episode Six: How Do You Know When It's Over? Hello everyone, in this episode we have made some small changes. The first thing you may notice is that we have shortened the length of the show. We decide for now to focus on one topic per show. We think that this will keep the episodes a little more focused and a little less rambling. In this episode, we discuss how you can tell if a relationship is over. We have some real life examples, but they are extremes of situations that you may encounter. Then we answer listener feedback, and call it a night. Music in this episode is from: The Smithereens - "Yesterday Girl" Powerman 5000 - "The End is Over" Lick the Tins - "Can't Help Falling in Love" We hope you enjoy the new and (hopefully) improved Two Married Geeks! You can contact us at twomarriedgeeks@gmail.com or cal us at 206-309-9178 We'll be back in two weeks! Comments[0] |
