Episode 133: The Sausage King of Little China (Part 2)

Geek Salad is back with the second half of episode 133: The Sausage King of Little China!

We know you've all been waiting with baited breath to find out how they can possibly top the first half, so now I can safely reveal that they get to talk about some of their personal favorite films from the year, 1986. Will Big Trouble in Little China make someone's list (as if you couldn't tell from the episode's title)? Could Iron Eagle make the cut? And might we see a certain musical based on an alien plant?

Small hint, all answers point to "Yes".

Episode 131: I Can't Hear You!!!!

Hello Cleveland!  Are you ready to rock?  I can’t hear you!  The team of Geek Salad are way louder than you!  And Andy, Mike, Katherine, and Joe have sobered up to tell you their favorite (and comically horrifying) concert and live music stories in Episode 131: I Can’t Hear You! 

 

Have you ever been a beer mule for a Brian Adams concert?  Andy has!  Have you ever seen Eric Clapton 8 times?  Joe has!  Have you ever seen Travis Tritt during the World’s Greatest Mullet phase?  Mike did!  And have you ever had to drive the stoner bus to a Phish show?  Katherine has stores…

 

There are also stories about opening bands that forgot their place in the pecking order, worst encores, and a whole lot more!   So grab your lighter (or your lighter app if you’re..ya know…young…) and hold out hope that they’ll close the show with “Freebird!”

Episode 130: Eat Thunder and Crap Lightening

Have you traded your passions for glory yet?  Or have you not lost a grip on the dreams of the past?  If you’re anything like the team at Geek Salad, you’ve probably done the former….

 

…however, Andy, Mike, Katherine, and Joe are here to kick off their Summer Podcast Series with their homage to the singular talent that is Sylvester Stallone in Geek Salad Episode 130:  Eat Thunder and Crap Lightening!  Listen to the chronicles how a man got his start in soft-core skin flicks and hit the pinnacle of his success fighting the US’s ills and pouring copious amounts of groin sweat into his American Flag boxing shorts!

Episode 129: Six Flags Over Valhalla

Get your tickets and Fast Passes ready, because the team at Geek Salad is going to be taking you on a wild ride!  Relive the fun, the laughs, and the motion sickness when Andy, Mike, Joe, and Katherine discuss their favorite amusement parks. 

 

From the parks that the gang grew up around in New England, to some of the most head scratching “amusement” parks imaginable (Dollywood, I’m looking right in your general direction!) to the House of Mouse, the Geeks have you covered!

(For the parents out there, we would like to point out that, while we are discussing a whole bunch of Family FunTime destinations, this show is definitely NOT for your kids!!!)

Episode 127: Under the Sea with Prince Ali

Ever since Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs premiered in 1937, Disney's films have, for the most part, been widely praised for their music. Whether a jaunty upbeat song like "I Just Can't Wait to be King", or a touching love song like "Candle on the Water", the songs are sometimes even more beloved than the films that spawn them. And so, to honor those wonderful tunes, Andy, Mike, Joe, and Katherine are counting down the top 22 Disney songs as voted by the Geek Salad audience in episode 127: Under the Sea with Prince Ali!

The voting was all over the place and there were 80+ nominees, but while not every song made the list, the fact that there were that many shows that everyone loves at least some of the songs. And I think most everyone will agree that the 22 that made this list are really some of the best to ever come from the House of Mouse. But don't worry. Just because it's Disney doesn't mean that the crew will tone down their usual crass humor.

Episode 125: Tom Bombadil Ain't In This One, Either

Settle down in your favorite little Hobbit hole and break out some lembas bread, as it is time for Geek Salad to venture into Middle Earth with episode 125: Tom Bombadil Ain't In This One, Either.Yes, not even the godfather of all nerd culture, Tolkien, is safe from the Geek Salad crew, this time consisting of Ranger Andy, his Elvish maiden Autumn, Rider of Rohan Joe, and Man of Gondor Mike.

The crew take on the books (ever so briefly as they can be a bit... what's the word... boring), the animated specials (which can be a bit... '70s), and finally all six of Peter Jackson's films. They cover the good and the bad, as well as a discussion on the excessive nature of turning The Hobbit into 3 films.

(Oh, and in case you're wondering, yes, episode 126 was posted before 125. Technical issues, combined with the need to get the wrestling show out by WrestleMania, meant that 126 had to go up in a more timely manner)

Episode 124: Back in the (Miller) High Life Again (ft. the Michelob Horns)

Think about it…there must be Higher Love…and you can get that with Geek Salad Episode 124:  Back in the (Miller) High Life Again (feat. The Michelob Horns).  In this extra, extra long installment, Andy, Mike, Katherine, and the returning Jim, discuss the long list of Billboard Number One hits of the year 1986.  They also find time to tear apart the video for Don Johnson’s “Heartbeat,” and discuss their favorite albums released in ’86!  And what would a discussion that involves Huey Lewis be if it didn’t include Jim making jokes about his schlong!

Episode 123: Old Men Sitting In Caves Distributing Swords

It’s dangerous to go alone….take this!!!

 

…and with those words, the children of the 80’s blew into their golden cartridges, prayed that the included battery saved their game data, and went on their quest to save the Princess Zelda.

 

Now, Mike, Andy, and Joe discuss the enduring legacy that is the quest of Link in the Legend of Zelda games.  They discuss the triumphs, like the original game, Ocarina of Time, and Twilight Princess, to the failures of Majoro’s Mask, Link’s Adventure, and the CD-i games that were so awful, they were scrubbed from the Zelda continuity.

 

Then, hang out as the boys discuss the latest “Suicide Squad” trailer.

 

Then, buckle in for the depressing third of the show, where the gang discusses the recent deaths of Glen Frey, Alan Rickman, and David Bowie…

Episode 122: Operation Chimney Sweep

Happy holidays to one and all from Geek Salad! And as an early Christmas gift, the crew is giving you Episode 122: Operation Chimney Sweep. Sit back and enjoy as Andy, Mike G, Joe, Katherine, and Autumn get ready for lots of coal in their stockings because this year, they're taking on the big man himself, Santa Claus!

 

They start their beef with the right jolly old elf for presents either not provided or grossly overrated, before moving onto dealing with some of the different incarnations of the fat man, both naughty and nice.

Episode 119: Sony and the Bandicoot

20 years ago, after a nasty split with Nintendo, Sony went on to create one of the best selling gaming consoles of all time in the original Sony PlayStation, and the world would never be the same again.

With that bit of history out of the way, sit back and enjoy the memories with Andy, both Mikes, Joe, Katherine, and even a special guest in Katherine's boyfriend Joe as they chat about the many highs and a few lows of PlayStation in Geek Salad episode 119: Sony and the Bandicoot.

From the heights of Tomb Raider and Metal Gear Solid, to the lows of Masters of Teras Kasi, the crew indulge in their fond remembrances of the PlayStation games. Maybe they might even mention an RPG or two (*cough*Final Fantasy VII*cough*).
