Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle talk about “Rube Goldberg killing movies,” Westworld (without getting into spoilers) and Joel’s first foray into a Hollywood red carpet premiere. They also fondly look back at the 80s and 90s sitcom trope of characters getting into trouble inside pool halls.

Plus, Joel reveals an embarrassing anecdote about gas and Lars can’t stop making wolf whistles.

How did Westworld get Joel to sympathize with the robots? Why were 80s sitcom characters so good at pool? What’s it like standing two feet away from Mark Hamill and Nathan Fillion? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.

Featured, Game of Thrones, Hobo Radio, Jurassic Park, Michael Crichton, The Walking Dead, Westworld

After months of fan speculation, The Walking Dead finally revealed which cast member(s) met a grizzly end. Without spoiling the episode (that neither of them watched), Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle talk about the distinction between showrunners misdirecting fans and openly lying to them at panels.

They also talk about a new kiosk that allows you to scan your face and make your own personalized Star Wars and Marvel action figures and they pay tribute to Michael Crichton, the man who created Jurassic Park and Westworld.

Is it ever okay to lie to your fans? Would you spend $60 to put your face on an Iron Man action figure? How many stories about theme parks going haywire is too many? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “El Fuego” by Polyrhythmics
