I like it when episodes have subplots like maybe Andrew's going mad?

That's the extra spice that makes WHM one of my favourite podcasts.

I'd somehow never even heard of this movie and I'm not entirely certain they didn't just make it up. Come on, a knife salesman?

e: jesus the guy directed Top Gun, The Hunger, True Romance, and Days of Thunder. That's an impressively schizophrenic filmography

It's crazy how much better they are than something like Half in the Bag's years-long "gay marriage LOL" plotline despite spending a fraction as much effort and time on it.

'Mr Plinkette is excited for the honeymoon and informs Rich(?) that his butthole is like a wet paper bag.'

'the whispers only Andrew can hear are telling him to do things'

I was/am a stalwart Crichton defender (lessening as time goes on) and oh yeah that novel is beyond eyebrow-raising. Very glad that I read it well after his better works.

The IDEOTV ep on Timeline is a good listen if you're into bad book podcasting.

I read it in high school and didn't know better so I bought fully into the idea that Japan was going to own our entire country in a few years. It does the usual Crichton thing of having a dozen pages of references at the end but instead of Chaos theory and dinosaur research it's all racist pseudo-economics.

Have they made any mention on twitter about doing an onscreen of Justice League or a full blown ep? I wonder if they'd save it for worst of 2017.

I think the odds of them doing an onscreen for it are really high, they've done one for every(?) DC movie so far. They know their audience lusts for comic book blood.

I think I saw an Andrew tweet saying it'd be an on-screen soon and they just needed to work out scheduling.

Along that topic, I am 95% sure that it was WHM (Andrew specifically) in a very old episode who mentioned that a common saying among teens was how "I'm wicked thirsty" meant horny. I'd like to both thank as well as curse WHM for actually enabling my brain to get that "joke" during Justice League.

Even Kurt Vonnegut wrote a book about Japanese businesses taking over America, it was definitely in the zeitgeist.

What I saw of Monster Trucks, I think it's too safe and kid-friendly to be an episode. It was harmless, or maybe that's the point? The WHM guys they can make episodes out of nothing.

Eric makes more sense if you remember Andrew described him as a GoT wilding.

This Murder at 1600 episode is gold, ED-209 being chased away to the hills was genius. Snipesgiving is a wonderful time of year.
