In mid-2007, Joey the Mad Scientist and I teamed up to try our hand at podcasting. After two episodes... we quit. I have no easy answers as to why, and who are you to judge us anyway? What, you've never quit anything? Sorry, Mr. Perfect, I didn't know you had an account here.
The newest edition of the Uncanny Valley podcast, featuring 100% more Joey the Mad Scientist and a light sprinkling of Shug White. Topics include Cloverfield, Grindhouse, the 2007 Top Ten, and Kate and Leopold... really.
In this week's episode -- The Oscars, the writer's strike, the definition of "dipthong", the SeaQuest Curse, and the possible (please) end of Paris Hilton's movie career.
It's Oscar Night, 2k8!! And what better way for the Uncanny Valley to celebrate the evening than to podcast that bitch into oblivion. Joey the Mad Scientist cuts a three hour ramble into a lean hour of stream-of-consciousness conversation, while I gradually descend into a drunken, insane state. A gush-fest about Once, jokes about Nicholson, Erik's obsession with Gladiator, Jason defines foreign films and liberal Hollywood, plus 80 Years of Your Mom.
The Uncanny Valley goes topical! Joey and I discuss The Signal, the Oscars, and the problem with the state of entertainment today. Plus, a Raylette stops by to chat.
Spring Break! Erik (The PSofPL) returns to dispense wisdom on the best baseball movies ever made, plus movie-to-theme-park-ride comparisons. Also, Andrew shares a tender story of booze, strippers, and the movie Jumper.

you guys get lucky because this month i am feeling generous. you get the bonus round! this is a set done entirely with the korg kaossilator.
if you look through my blog you will see my notes on this little yellow guy. now omn to the technical details...
everything is done on the kaossilator. i did not use any samples or any other devices or sound making things of any kind. this is 100% kaossilator. all of the songs were recorded live, and on the fly. so what you are hearing is the actual song making process in action. now i did use a tiny bit of studio trickery in so much that i blended the songs together to make a continuous soundtrack.
keep in mind that while i adore this box, it does have its limitations, and i still view it as a toy. that being said this isn't an oh my god what the fuck barbeque session. but it was fun and i figured, why not.
since this isn't your standard style set, i did encode in 96kbps, so if that bugs you let me know, and i will give you the url to the high quality version.
with that i give you - Live From The Cocoon - Bonus Round - Sunny Days
Erik the PSoPL joins up for a full show, discussing summer movies Speed Racer, Prince Caspian, and (of course) Iron Man. The $1,000 Feature! Rambo! Technical glitches! Plus, the Mad Scientist confesses his secret passion.
The Uncanny Valley unknowingly celebrates its tenth episode with special guest Justin Morgan (Geekin'). We debate the careers of Spielberg and Lucas, go in search of a girl-powered blockbuster, poke fun at Indiana Jones, and try to figure out which '80s TV kid had that disease that made them short...

The Uncanny Valley podcast returns as SmashCut, an all-new, all-better, not-very-different show. This week, we discuss our long absence, Michael Bay's latest basket of explosions and nonsense, and the best and worst (so far) of 2009.
This week, we celebrate some cinematic bad-asses, from the tommy gun maniacs in Michael Mann's Public Enemies to the quintessential Man With No Name (or Three Men With Three Different Names.)
*NOTE*: This episode contains music from merge recording artist She and Him. Our only intent is to promote this artist in the context that it is movie related (one of the members is a movie starlet.) To discourage piracy we have kept the file at a measly 96kbps (and in mono I might add) which would hardly be worth your while to keep as an original. We do not own any of the rights to this song. If you enjoyed the song, please run to your local independent record shop and buy this album immediately. It will be worth your while.
On this week's show, we discuss the latest Harry Potter offering and Andrew rants about where the series has gone right, and where it has gone very wrong. Plus, favorite film franchises, City by the Sea, and the fine art of Brucesploitation.
On this week's show, Andrew provides sage parenting advice for new Dad, Joey. Plus, a discussion on the passing of John Hughes, Repo! The Genetic Opera, G.I. Joe, and the upcoming District 9.
On this week's show, Andrew nitpicks the summer's critical darling, the blockbuster District 9, and unleashes an undisputed movie truth. Plus Blacula, Uwe Boll, and the week's new releases. ***Spoilers (District 9) 0:28:00 - 0:39:00***
This week: Andrew's love letter to Tarantino's love letter to the movies, Inglourious Basterds. Plus, a summer movie roundup, Paul Blart, and a look at the nerd rage surrounding the Avatar trailer.

We prepare for our Spring break by giving out final thoughts on the Oscars. The victory of The Hurt Locker, the Razzie of Sandra Bullock, and the secret sexism behind Kathryn Bigelow's groundbreaking win. Plus the latest news on Captain America, Twilight, and other movies that really matter.
