Dead Idea Valhalla 30. Scurvy Curves
RUN.This is a goooood ep.The first half, a little bit about my job history contains some fun stories and some awful ones.The middle song, a number called Don't No, comes from a little EP I like quite a bit that, in retrospect, is FULL of anxiety about my doomed marriage! Listening back to it is almost embarrassing given how transparent it is. "The idiot chaos in the center of my heart marked a date on a calendar that I had to follow."...

Watch Out for Fireballs! 45: Max Payne
Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross enter an altered state to talk about Max Payne.Your wife and only child are dead, and you want blood. Also, it’s a noir video game. We ultimately express our indifference towards the shooter genre, but we love the presentation bits enough to extend a lot of good will toward it.LINKS OF NOTE:GBA Max Payne: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvJk0gF8jngGBA Tony Hawk: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sRjTg01hqADiaper Time: www.youtube....

Dead Idea Valhalla 29. The Constant Death of Regular Humans
Here's a little bit of cruelty that isn't going to age that well.The first bit is something I'm not totally into anymore! I do think it's silly to mourn celebrities, for the most part, but I also realize it's very unkind. If I did this again, I might tone it down a little bit. It does mean that I get to say I wrote a song called Pussystorm USA, however.The song in the middle, officially titled Victim but that I always refer to...

Dead Idea Valhalla 28. And They Called Him Demolition Man...
And they called him...The first segment is a tirade about weather that's pretty uninspired, I admit! But it gets better!The song in the middle is from The Midnite Snax, my 2nd rock band in my home town, and a song from my song-a-day project. It's about the character Bub from my favorite George Romero movie, Day of the Dead.The real meat, however, is "Gary Butterfield's Boring Party." I love this bland playlet. I've always ...

Watch Out for Fireballs! 44: Metroid Prime
Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross slather themselves with Phazon and talk about Metroid Prime.An ancient evil springs of a meteor, a verbose race of bird people leave you notes, and a classic series is taken to 3D. Neither of us beat the game this time around, but we played enough to know that it doesn’t succeed on a lot of levels.LINKS OF NOTE:Metroid Prime: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metroid_PrimeMetroid Timeline: metroid.wikia.com/wiki/Metroid_timel...
Abject Suffering 8: Jurassic Park
Hey there, Clever Girls... are you ready to have a prepubescent crush on Laura Dern? We thought so. There really isn't a great Jurassic Park game, but the Genesis one is made of human butt. And we don't care that you get to be a raptor, because that's the dream we live every night... as were-raptors.

Dead Idea Valhalla 27. Sex Copse
Tommy's Too.The Sex Trillogy Concludes! Though I guess I talk about sex quite a bit. First, the Tiny Beings Errata, with the fakey Stan Lee voice, who I called Granny Guzzlin' Gary, which is fucking disgusting.In the middle, the only cover The Metroids ever recorded. It's more or less faithful.Then, some more Gallagher 3, because it's not like he's the worst thing I ever made.

Watch Out for Fireballs! 43: Sonic 3 and Knuckles
Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross sprint through Sonic 3 and Knuckles.Something about emeralds, something about robots, something about going real fast. There's some measure of debate over what the best Sonic game is, but Sonic 3 and Knuckles is probably the grandest expression of what "Sonic" is all about. We vacilitate for a while before ultimately concluding that the game ain't bad, it just has high highs and low lows.Note: The sk...

Dead Idea Valhalla 26. Shirts for Uncles
Save time by having your shirt say this to everyone you'd say it to.Part two of the sex trillogy. Fun little bit in the first half, in the guise of fake deleted scenes. Nothing much to say.In the middle: one of the saddest songs I think I've ever done.Then some stuff about shirts and sex. Solid ep, bro.
