On this episode we take it easy and do a two-fer episode for y’all! It’s been a crazy summer for us, and in the theatres, so we get to talking about all of the summer blockbusters we’ve seen or failed to see, as well as revisit some of the ones we talked about in older episodes. Also, we get into the new phone announcements from Samsung and Apple, and dig into the idea of early adopters. And along the way, Shawn explains his Cartman impression, and Earl tries to break out of his need for structure.

What we’ve been checking out:
Shawn: Ginger Snaps (Film)
Earl: Whiplash (Film)

Audio notes: (1hr. 20min. runtime)
0:04:25 – Samsung Note Edge, iPhone 6, early adopters, Shawn’s Cartman voice, and Tamagotchis
0:21:45 – Spooky AKOP Night, favourite candy, slashers, and quest narratives
0:36:30 – Persona 4, PS Vita, Bayonetta, games in 2014, and juggling different games
