MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT: If you listened to the show, you know that Ray is trying to get Glenn to ride the water slide on his cruise. Glenn, averse to the supertall climb and the ride down the slide that extends over the ship, has said that the only way he’ll do it is if we get 100 people to tweet #GlennDoTheWaterSlide. C’mon people! Let’s get Glenn on the water slide! 

Don’t forget, it’s #GlennDoTheWaterSlide!

This week’s episode of The GAR! Podcast includes discussion of the following:

intro / TCM Cruise / watching movies on the cruise / ship theaters / programming / the sound of Tarantula / Glenn’s happy place / Ray’s excursions / the experience / AquaDuck / Twin Peaks / Rodney Dormitories / VCR adventures / ancient phone technology / Sony’s Spider-Man / Fox’s Fantastic Four / FF cancellation / Thor / the unfilmable FF / Robert Downey, Jr. / Guardians of the Galaxy / Burger King chicken nuggets / missing Spooky / closing /

GAR! Podcast Episode 30: Live From The Front Seat Of Glenn’s Car!

(Note from Ray- Glenn did our write-up. I’m shocked that he did this without using the word “bedbug”. So, not for any reason other than it’s fun to say “bedbug”…BEDBUG BEDBUG BEDBUG BEDBUG! You’re welcome.)

(Also, the guy we thought was dead? He wasn’t. We saw him walking around a few hours later. So we didn’t make fun of a dead guy. Our karma is spared.)

(Also- Alligator People is AWESOME. Watch the movie below. You’ll thank me later.)

(Also- this was my favorite podcast with Glenn. We really did this in the parking lot of the con in Glenn’s car. We should do more like this.)

This week’s special Live from the Pulp AdventureCon episode of The GAR! Podcast includes discussion of the following:

Pulp AdventureCon / Glenn’s arcane movie knowledge / The Wild World of Batwoman / The Alligator People / West of Zanzibar / customer service / the dead guy in the back / Golden Age comics / slabbing comics / the original Daredevil / Mark Waid / Mr. Terrific* / serials / The Spider / bat mitzvah / figure skating / Tonya Harding / sex tapes / this episode’s Breaking Bad reference / Brady Bunch / hotel as alternate housing / customers / used Star Wars toys / Ender’s Game / creator vs. product / Mel Gibson / Super Fun Night / Queen Latifah / marriage / the Green Hornet on radio / Frank Miller / The Spirit / into the woods / Tom Smith / The Fox /

* although what Glenn is thinking of is Captain Nice
