I didn’t roll any dice to land on this band. And I know that if Jakob rolled his weird-looking D&D thingies, he wouldn’t land on The Tragically Hip, either. I doubt he has any Hip in his storied music collection. I’d actually be more inclined to believe he’s in the market for an SUV.

Jakob rolls 1d4, 1d12 and 1d20 to select a CD from his collection to review.
Today’s roll: 1 – 5 – 19.
Result: Treasure by Cocteau Twins.
Upon rolling the bones, I realized it’s been ages since I’ve listened to a Cocteau Twins album and it struck me that I might actually be done with them. Which is a little [...]

The latest news on HIV and AIDS as we approach World AIDS Day on December 1st. Allison and Nigel go from sad to angry to impassioned to giggling hysterically to hopeful in the space of one show. Oh, and they’re pretty rude, because you just can’t talk about condoms and sex properly without a little [...]

A little how-to guide for you here. Sorry for the lack of shows for the last two weeks, several of us were struck down by various illnesses, we weren’t even all back for this one. Normal service should be resumed one day.

Joined this week by our executive producer, the rules are fully enforced.
There is a little too much beer for Boz and Casey’s audio setup is outed again.

Remember Mallet’s Mallet? It’s a word association game where you mustn’t pause or hesitate from our collective UK childhood. You start with the words HP Photosmart C309a, and I say TURKEY! The damn thing just won’t print like it’s supposed to. Sure it will print, it will even print onto A4 paper completely borderlessly, yet [...]

New Moon opened last weekend to record-breaking ticket pre-sales. How could Jakob and Mandi not do a show on it? Quite easily it seems. Instead they talk about a previous vampires vs. werewolves franchise with a cult following.

Sometime in the last three-hundred years there was a brief period between the European discovery of North America, and the European rape of said continent, when the natives and the colonists actually co-existed peacefully. The tales of the first Thanksgiving are undoubtedly apocryphal and exaggerated with time, but the spirit of the holiday does [...]

Thanksgiving is here again in the States which brings a smile to Mike’s face and a frown to Jay’s. Hear them duke it out in a very special holiday Sucks or Rules debate. Also, a big announcement of something new that you’ll be able to hear in addition to the regular show. It’s tryptophan-tastic.
Bonus Material: [...]
