July 31, 2018DC Comics, Featured, Hobo Radio, Star WarsHoboTrashcan

Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle started co-hosting Hobo Radio on July 18, 2008. This week, they celebrate 10 years of podcasting together.

They take a look at how the podcasting game has changed over the last decade, the state of DC Extended Universe films and the underwhelming filmography of Star Wars: Episode IX screenwriter Chris Terrio.

If they do the show long enough, will it become ironically popular? Is Hoagiefest overrated? Is Joel okay? The answers to these questions and more are on this week’s show.

This week’s music:

Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
End – “All The Love” by The Space Merchants

Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle discuss how insane the pitch for Who Framed Roger Rabbit? must have been. They also talk about the current state of Disney’s Star Wars films (and the fans) and they take a deeper look at actors who make it a point to talk to everyone on a film set.

Why are Star Wars fans so angry? How did Who Framed Roger Rabbit? ever get made? Does the crew like it when actors talk to them? The answers to these questions and more are on this week’s show.

May 28, 2018Featured, han solo, Hobo Radio, Star WarsHoboTrashcan

In this spoiler-filled episode, Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle share their thoughts on Solo: A Star Wars Story. Both of them were pleasantly surprised by the film (and eat a fair amount of crow for all the shade they threw at the film in the weeks leading up to the release). So, if you’ve seen the film, nerd out with our dynamic duo over Solo.

Was Donald Glover’s Billy Dee Williams’ impression distracting? Why did the film underperform at the box office? How did Ron Howard pull off an enjoyable Han Solo adventure? The answers to these questions and more are on this week’s show.

Intro – ““Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
End – “Cantina Rag” by Jackson F. Smith
