Episode 113 : Mystery Episode 10

Well, the inter-dimensional magic is at play, again, so we’ve got a Mystery Episode. I dunno what’s in it, and i dunno what the questions are. But I’m sure it’s good…. well… you know… for us. Enjoy!

Episode 112 : Snarfblats

Now, don’t be scared, everyone… but this week, we did NO QUESTIONS.

It’s not our fault! Actually, it’s completely our fault. We got pretty distracted by a spirited debate on the nature of the word “geek.” Yes, yes, it’s been done to death ,but there’s actually some interesting and fairly original thoughts in this discussion. So check it out! Enjoy!

Technical Difficulties 2013!

Ok, so some of you may have noticed we weren’t here for a little bit. We’re back, though. If you’re reading this, you probably figured it out.

 

The problem is a long story, that I’m sure will come up on the next episode. But basically, it’s our fault, but also not our fault.

 

Anyway, sorry for the confusion. Hopefully the 20 hours of downtime didn’t cost us too many permanent listeners.

This episode is pretty awesome, Hatlings and Hard Hats! We get through SOOOOO many questions! There’s some talk of weddings, as there often is these days (thanks, Beth), and then William goes on a kinda weird, boring stretch. And then a simple question about billboards devolves into discussion about abortion! Enjoy!

This is what we were watching in between episodes 107 and 108.

Episode 107: Yes, aaaaaand….

Tonight we meander a bit before we actually get out some questions. Like, almost all of the episode. The good news (for some of you), is that it’s not about video games! The bad news (for some of you), is that it’s largely about roleplaying games.  Enjoy!

QUESTIONS:

Dear TMTH, What was your favorite childhood toy? — Mark McKibben

Episode 106 : Alan Alda is Magic

We get into some talk about art, tonight. Specifically, acting. More specifically, TV shows. Most specifically, House of Cards on Netflix. But it’s still pretty interesting and insightful, dammit! Then we have a sort of British theme, partially due to a questioner, and partially due to a question. Enjoy!

QUESTIONS:

Are we nearly there yet? — Craig

When Queen Elisabeth II passes, will the entire Commonwealth reissue its currency? — Anonymous

Nothing really, but this is what Tony was watching right before the taping.
