About this Episode
The Boondock Saints, Vegeta, Natural Born Killers, and The Chase, and people we don't like are mentioned in the nine minutes of hot mic content before the show open. In the first segment of the show, Brad and Steve discuss the necessity of basic hygiene, moderation, and food-related television. Brad discusses losing his brakes on a steep hill, being best man at a wedding, public speaking, and social anxiety. A mention of the new Justice League trailer devolves into a discussion of Aquaman, midgets, the Rule of Five, choosing the lead actor in a potential biographical film of Richard Simmons, and J. Edgar Hoover. Also, the physical fitness of the members of Hydra, why the casting of Varsity Blues was less than stellar, horrible jokes about an NBA legend, Jason Statham, hating the Minnesota Twins and the Washington Nationals, and terrible local television commercials. The retro gaming update covers the fighting and price gouging over the SNES Classic and the disappointment of the Genesis Flashback. Before the break, it's listener-submitted Desert Island Dinner lists, Dave's failure to break the nugget record, KungFuSpaceman reaching affiliate status on Twitch, losing more potential sponsors, and lost Jackie Chan films. The second half features a discussion of the Las Vegas shooting at the beginning of October, the political aftermath, the danger of mislabeling the issues in question, the absurdity of believing that more laws will have any effect on the most evil of criminals, conspiracy theories, the strawman arguments that inevitably arise in the wake of such events, Alex Jones, and the continuous nonsense about the Russians. It's the longest show to date but it never slows down. It's episode 006 of Apex Live! #MakeSenseCommonAgain
