AUDIO VERSION:

Joel Murphy and Andy McIntyre watch maligned movies and find their silver linings. For December, they are watching Christmas movies.

  • Directed by: Jerry Ciccoritti
  • Written by: Russell Hainline
  • Starring: Lacey Chabert, Dustin Milligan, Chrishell Stause, Joe Lo Truglio, Katy Mixon Greer, Lauren Holly, Craig Robinson

Hobo Radio 586 – X always gave it to ya

Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle remember the life of the truly one of a kind rap icon DMX.

DMX has come up a number of times before on the show, so they also revisit two of those times – 1.) Hobo Radio 332, where they discussed the phrase “Twice as butt” from “Where The Hood At?” and 2.) Joel’s interview with Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, where they explained how getting the rights to “X Got’ Give It To Ya” was like an episode of Law and Order.

They also vent their frustrations with Netflix canceling shows prematurely and the Arclight Theaters closing.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “X Gon’ Give It To Ya/No Diggity (Acoustic Mash-Up)” by Steven Smith
DMX
