It's the end of the month, so it's time for the next Fast and Furious movie. And we've got some HOT takes, maybe? Please let us know if this take is hot. This episode is about Fast Five. It's supposedly when this franchise gets "good." We'll see about that. We also play a BRAND new game! It's a great ep! Enjoy!You can contact the show at agoodpodca…

This episode gets a little silly. We go off the rails PRETTY hard, hence the multiple titles. Technically this ep is about live television, but really it's about how we were on the news a couple of weeks ago and how Josiah has a business idea. And we get another installment of the HSWII RPG! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and fi…

That's right! It's time for another FOOD. We're filling out the HSWII menu by talking about chicken tenders this week. We even play a BRAND new game inspired by the topic, never before seen on HSWII. And we actually do get into a little Star Wars talk on this one! Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and find us @HowStarWarsIsI…

Listen! We're obsessed!!! We don't care who knows! We can't stop listening to Chappell Roan, just like everyone else. So we decided to cover her latest album! It's a great discussion of these killer tracks, and we of course play Smash or Pass for each one. Weeeee don't talk very much about Star Wars in this one...sorry. You can contact the show at …

It's the end of the month, so it's time for another Fast and Furious movie! This time, we're dropping the "the's" for the fourth installment in the franchise, Fast and Furious. This movie is a strange turning point in the franchise, and we discuss it at length and play a little game inspired by it as well. Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpo…

We've completed our collection of Star Wars Minute hosts this week by having Alex Robinson on to discuss outer space! Our discussion is wide-ranging but definitely covers SOME space stuff, for sure. We also play the Star Wars Minute game and Alex absolutely destroys. Thanks to Alex for joining us this week! You can find Alex's work at alexrobinson.…

Technically this episode is about french fries. Technically. In reality, it's mostly about juggling a million pickles and Homestar Runner fan fiction. Which means it's one of the best episodes yet? We also do a bracket for what the best fries are! It's great. This ep is one for the books. Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com an…

We somehow have NEVER covered a Beatles album, despite us both being fans, and despite us talking about THIS album many times before, and despite us talking about the Beatles many times before! So we picked Sgt. Pepper's to start with! Maybe we'll do more of these! We of course also play Smish or Piss. Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcas…

We're just a month behind in covering Dune: Part Two, but cut us some slack! We don't do this professionally so everything is a little delayed. We had to see it, schedule a guest, record it, edit it, and then upload it after the other eps that were already scheduled, and that takes some time! But I digress. We have a guest this week! Fellow dunatic…

It's the end of the month, and you know what that means! Time to jump back into the Fast and Furious franchise! We're covering the third entry in the franchise, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. This movie is ridiculous. And also apparently takes place in 7 years after it was released for some reason. Who knows. We also get another installment…

We for once are following up on a topic we said we should do in a recent episode! The 2003 family classic Holes came up in the "Nothing" episode, and here we are covering it this week! It's a great episode where we kinda come to an impressive conclusion about Star Wars?? And we continue the HSWII RPG. Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast…

Hahahahahah we did an episode on nothing. That's FUNNY. It's a great episode. It doesn't get AS contentious as "Circles" got, but we do get into it. We also play Only Connect and discuss Hank the Cowdog at LENGTH. Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and find us @HowStarWarsIsIt on all platforms. You can also follow Mike @MikeG…

Sorry for the bunch of random noises in Josiah's track! He's been having some recording issues lately. ANYWAY. We're talking vacation this week! Why?? Why not!!! You're gonna need a vacation from this episode by the end because it is truly insane. And we of course play the Vacation RPG. Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and …

It's the end of the month, and that can only mean one thing. Back to the Fast and Furious well! We're covering 2 Fast 2 Furious this week, and it's a fun one!

And we share our favorite tracks from the album! Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and find us @HowStarWarsIsIt on all platforms. You can also fo…

We're discussing the movie musical Chicago this week! It's a GREAT flick and we really get into the nitty-gritty of whatever happened to movie musicals. We also play the Musical City Name Game. It's a great ep. Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and find us @HowStarWarsIsIt on all platforms. You can also follow Mike @MikeGosp…

We have a special guest on the show today covering our favorite city and the place of origin for this podcast, Chicago! Podcaster and critic Shannon Campe joins us to discuss all things Chicago, and boy oh boy do we get into it. We talk Malort, dibs, the lake, surviving the winter, we cover it all. And we play a game of Chicagyes or Chicagno! Enjoy…

It's time to reveal that we are covering the Fast and the Furious franchise, one movie at a time for the last week of the month, each month this year! We're excited because we're not familiar with this franchise! Hopefully, it will be a breath of fresh air for the podcast. We also play the IMDB game! It's great. You can contact the show at agoodpod…

We made it back to the Willennium to discuss the 2nd worst movie of all time, according to some people, Wild Wild West! And we have a special returning guest! You know her, you lover her, one of the co-hosts of Sports Kid / Drama Kid, Andi Sharavsky! It's her fault we watched this movie, and we had a dang good time discussing it. We also play a Wor…

It feels like -30 degrees in Chicago as I write this! So what an appropriate episode topic! We talk about winter, of course, get into Star Wars a liiittle bit, and play some Only Connect. It's a great time. Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and find us @HowStarWarsIsIt on all platforms. You can also follow Mike @MikeGospel o…

Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and find us @HowStarWarsIsIt on all platforms. You can also follow Mike @MikeGospel on Twitte…

It's been a long time coming, but we finally did it. Long-time listeners will know that we've only ever lost two episodes of the show due to technical difficulties. Those episodes were on "Circles" and "Our 20's". They were REALLY good episodes and it was such a bummer to lose them. But we figured it's been long enough. We've healed enough, we've g…

It's the holiday seeeeason, doot, doot, DOOT. It's our holiday episode, and we're covering the DECIDEDLY Christmas movie, Batman Returns, with our returning guests Rob Grabowski and Josh Segovia of the podcast Poppin' Bottles. That's right, we're not taking ANY time off. This episode is dropping ON CHRISTMAS. This is our most bonus lengthed episode…

On the surface, this might look like an episode about holiday cheer, which is a funny idea, right? But really, this is an episode where two bros just list words that have the letter "X" in them in increasingly ridiculous ways. We also play a holiday movie game! This one gets really silly folks, so enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gma…

Well, it was bound to happen eventually. Well, two things were bound to happen eventually. One, we were bound to talk about a topic for a third time eventually. Some of us thought it would be Moving that would get a round three first, but nope, it was Solo. And two, Michael DeLaney was bound to be on the show for the 10th time eventually. And THIS …

Welp. We did it. We finally did it. For our 250th episode, we reviewed...ourselves. The ouroboros is complete. We can finally stop. Thanks to the suggestion of our very special guest Lior Shragg, in this episode, we are reviewing How Star Wars Is It? It's a big blow out bonus length episode in celebration of our 250th, and we play three, count 'em,…

Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. We had to do it. We had one more live action Batman that we could think of and we had to do it. So here it is. Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. This is what you wanted, right?? Is this what you wanted?? We go crazy for 45 minutes and then play the IMDB game. It's a great episode. Enjoy. You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gma…

We promised we would, and we're finally delivering on that promise! We're FINALLY covering 2003's The League of Extraordinary Gentleman, with special guest and DVD of this movie owner Cody Lindley! This movie is a trip, and this episode is also a trip. We also recast the movie with modern actors for the game, and it's a lot of fun. Check out Cody's…

We're heading back to album territory this week and discussing Olivia Rodrigo's latest release, GUTS. It's a great album and a fun episode as two 30-something-year-old men discuss music written by a teenage girl. And we of course play Smish or Piss. Enjoy!!! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and find us @HowStarWarsIsIt on all plat…

Oh boy. This one goes off the rails and STAYS off the rails. We definitely talk about leaves and we definitely talk about Star Wars, you can't say we didn't! We also talk about a lot of other stuff, including vampire umpires, the burning bush, and cool watches. And we play a new leaf inspired game of Mike's invention. Enjoy! You can contact the sho…

It's the end of the month, so we're doing another Batman movie! This week we've got new friends of the pod, Kyle Mantegna and Maggie Smith, the titular roommates/lovers of the podcast Roommate Lovers! Check out their show wherever you get your podcasts. We had a blast discussing this surprisingly excellent movie with them, talking about what they l…

We're keeping it spooky this week by talking about The Silence of the Lambs. It's a classic that raises a lot of interesting questions. And we discuss them all! We also actually compare it to Star Wars. Like we actually do our podcast. It's amazing. And we play Only Connect! Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and find us @How…

We're keeping things spooky this month by covering a recent favorite scary movie, 2022's Barbarian! It's a great flick, and it's a great episode, and we rank movie monsters in a bracket for the game.

We had the lovely co-hosts of Sports Kid / Drama Kid on the show to discuss the bizarre golf romantic comedy flick, Tin Cup. Jim and Andi were a delight to have on the show, and you s…

Your two decidedly not Jewish hosts are covering challah this week! But don't worry, we've got a decidedly Jewish guest this week! Friend, and I'll go out on a limb and say fan of the show, Lior Shragg joins us this week to discuss the delicious traditional Jewish staple, challah. As usual when we have guests, Lior keeps us on track and presents so…

We were inspired by our recent rock opera coverage to dip our toes back into The Floyd well, to cover their arguably better album, The Dark Side of the Moon. We do a TERRIBLE job comparing it to Star Wars, but a decent job talking about the album in general. And we also play Smash or Pass, which is hilarious to do for an album like this one. Enjoy!…

Yup, it's another episode title in quotes, because DO we really talk about exercise at all in this episode?? Yes, we actually do. But it's funny to put it in quotes because it felt like we did a bad job. We also play a Going to the Gym RPG! It's a great time. Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and find us @HowStarWarsIsIt on …

Our resident Bat-expert is back to discuss the final film of Bat-month, and the final in our series of firsts that we've been discussing. Batman: Mask of the Phantasm! The first animated Batman movie. And y'all, it's really good. But how Star Wars is it? Tune in to see if we discuss that at all. DeLaney also brings a classic real or fake style game…

It's the 3rd week of Batmonth, and we're continuing our coverage of "firsts", this time with the first of the Nolan trilogy, Batman Begins. We break down the movie and do a decent job of comparing it to Star Wars, and we play a little Rotten Tomatoes game. It's fun! Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and find us @HowStarWarsI…

Batmonth continues, and we're covering firsts all month long. This time, it's the first Batman movie EVER?? 1966's Batman. This madcap and zany comedic take on the Caped Crusader is a welcome breath of fresh air. Tune in to hear us sing the praises of this movie, talk about camp, and play a game surrounding the many insane labels that can be found …

We're finally done with rock operas, and it's on to our next contractually obligated month of programming: Batman movies! We're catching up on the Batmans we missed during Junesical Theatre month and Junesical July, so it's gonna be all Batman all month babyyy. And we're specifically focusing on firsts, so this week, we're looking at the first in t…

We're wrapping up Junesical July with 2004's seminal work by Green Day, American Idiot. It's a great album, and a great episiode. Do we talk about Star Wars at all? Tune in to find out. And of course, we play a good old fashioned game of Smish or Piss. You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and find us @HowStarWarsIsIt on all platforms.…

Junesical July continues. We're covering Tommy. We're stupid. We're tired. Tommy is weird. Rock operas are weird. We'll be back to, well, not normal, but to something different at least in August. Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and find us @HowStarWarsIsIt on all platforms. You can also follow Mike @MikeGospel on Twitter …

Junesical July continues with more rock opera coverage, and boy are our brains mush now. We're talking the seminal The Who album Quadrophenia this week.

We're continuing our coverage of rock operas during Junesical Theatre July this month with Pink Floyd's The Wall, specifically the movie version. And boy oh boy, it sure is interesting. We get a little in the weeds regarding rock operas and play a little game of Chain Reaction. It's a good time. Enjoy! You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail…

We felt we gave rock operas short shrift during the month of June, so we're extending our coverage of rock operas in a continuation of Junesical Theatre month. Welcome to Junesical Theatre July! We're starting off with a concept album/rock opera, The Black Parade by My Chemical Romance. And y'all, this album rips and slaps and does everything good.…

What's this?? It's the end of the month and we're not doing a Batman movie?? Well, we felt we didn't give rock operas a fair shake, so we're doing an extra one to close out Junesical theatre month. It's Jesus Christ Superstar! And we play a real or fake Bible game. It's a great time, and a bonus length because we were really having fun. Enjoy! You …

We're continuing this year's rock opera coverage during Junesical Theatre Month, this time by covering the cult classic Repo! The Genetic Opera with special guest and fellow Anarchy cast member Sydney Clinton. We talk about how absolutely bat shit this movie is and try to figure out how it could have been salvaged. We also play a reverse IMDB game!…
