Hobo Radio 281 – The third rule of Fight Club: No sequels

Fast and Furious, Featured, Fight Club, Gal Gadot, Hobo Radio

People react to Fight Club‘s surreal and bizarre ending in a variety of ways. But whatever your reaction was as the credits roll, chances are you weren’t thinking, “This sets things up perfectly for a sequel.” Regardless, Chuck Palahniuk recently told Hustler that he plans on developing a graphic novel sequel that will feature an older narrator and Marla Singer raising a child together and struggling with the monotony of married life. Joel Murphy and Lars share their thoughts on this unexpected revelation.

Speaking of Fight Club, a movie theater pulled a very Tyler Durden-esque move this past weekend, accidentally showing porn instead of the movie Frozen to a theater full of families. The dynamic duo discuss this, Paul Walker’s untimely death and the new Wonder Woman casting.

Was the theater that accidentally showed porn in Florida or Philadelphia? Is Gal Gadot the right casting for Wonder Woman? How can you make your YouTube “How To” videos better? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.

This week’s music:

Hobo Radio 260 – Act One: Accent Mark

Fast and Furious, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Hobo Radio, Morgan Freeman, Nelson Mandela, Stan Lee

Joel Murphy and Lars show just how well balanced Hobo Radio can be by segueing seamlessly from an in-depth discussion of the Fast and the Furious franchise into a discussion of This American Life and its frequent contributor David Sedaris. There truly is something for everyone on this week’s show.

They also dissect Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, which they believe was written by out of touch adults who didn’t understand the teenagers they were writing for, and they share their thoughts on the late, great James Gandolifini and the legacy he leaves behind.

Does anybody actually like Ferris Bueller’s Day Off? Is there anything Walmart could do to make its customers boycott them? Is there anything more adorable than the mental image of Nelson Mandela and Stan Lee sharing a pair of headphones? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.
