NOW YOU MADE IT AWKWARD Ep54: ”Who The Hell Dips Popcorn?”

Friday May 26, 2023

Well this week its a unique setup, just me and Rob and its a very short episode. It's a crazy week!Also trying out the new audio setup, sorry if i sound a little funny, I think I corrected it for the future but this one episode ill sound a little tinny.
We discuss the sad passing of Ray Stevenson, how some people think it's okay to dip popcorn, is Ariel more fish that person since she can talk with animals, and if lionesses sounded like Beyoncé would they run the world? We also get sad talking about the death of Dormamu's pug.

NOW YOU MADE IT AWKWARD Ep53: ”How Gargoyles Will Bring Down The Economy”

Friday May 19, 2023

Alan joins us again. Nice to have a last minute Irishman on hand. Having just gotten out of the hospital I tell the story of how I got there. Rikki saw Guardian 3 and gives us his base thoughts on it. A full review will come later when we have a packed house again. And then we somehow get on the topic of inflation and how the economy is based on nothing but debt and made up numbers.
Check out the Patreon to see annoyed I can get at my co-hosts.

Friday May 12, 2023

Rusty returns this week. We talk about the humanitarian crisis at the southern border then get back to nerd stuff. How did Rusty like Andor? Why hasn't he watched Mrs. Maisel? Can he get the IDW Collections before they disappear forever? All this and more! And Rikki shows up eventually.

NOW YOU MADE IT AWKWARD Ep51: ”UPS and Downs”

Friday May 05, 2023

This week we've got a full house with Mike joining us and Dormamu sliding back into 3rd seat. We discuss the new Downs Syndrome Barbie. There was a terrible mass shooting of a family in Cleveland, Texas leading to a manhunt and us discussing gun laws.
I ask the question: "Is there anything truly sacred when it comes to comedy and is censorship pulling back when it comes to jokes?" Also with comedy holding nothing sacred, Hollywood takes the opposite approach and deems certain things super untouchable while also deeming other things so open for grabs they don't care that they're erasing another culture's history for modern ideals.

NOW YOU MADE IT AWKWARD Ep50: ”Once And Always Awkward”

Friday Apr 28, 2023

For our half centennial episode we had a packed house with a good chunk of our cohosts and guests popping in.
We discuss the Power Rangers 30th Anniversary special. The Blockbuster Super Mario Brother movie and its flaws. How Star Wars is broken. And how Hollywood stars either get away with crimes or lose everything without conviction. Oh and how Disney is not just racist, but colorist.
Fun times!

Saturday Apr 08, 2023

This week we have a very special episode where Shaun, one of the original cohosts of this show interviews myself, Rikki and Rusty on how Nerd Culture became a part of our lives.

NOW YOU MADE IT AWKWARD Ep47: ”I’m Sorry, I Wasn’t Paying Attention”

Friday Mar 31, 2023

Rikki is off this episode so I took the time to talk with Rusty 1 on 1. We discuss the slippery slope of attention span that seem brought on by Tik Tok. How great Star Trek Piccard has become compared to some other Sci-Fi shows. The really dumb and restrictive beer laws in Texas and what 1 Hollywood star owned brewery is doing about it. The newest and fastest Dodge Challenger Demon has arrived and for 100k you too can experience 2 Gs horizontally. Also a crazy person tried to shoot up a strip club and was promptly stopped.
