[Warning: This episode is on the hard PG-13 border.] In an episode filled with surprises, we go over the transition in which Kevin hands over the full hosting duties to Dom. We discuss the origins of the show, how we all met, and some other stories about our adventures together. We hope you enjoy this very candid episode.

Outro Music: Up with End Credits by Michael Giacchino

SMASHED!! (warning: Explicit Content)

suberunker — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 02:16:54 +0000

We discuss our experience with alcohol culture! With all of us having different experiences with alcohol, we discuss our first drinking experiences as well as our stories involving us drinking and other people drinking too. It's a strange mix of nerds explaining how they discovered the perception and enjoyment of alcohol. This one's definitely explicit folks, so wear some headphones or be *very* selective as to where you listen to this.

Intro/Outro Music: Swisskapolka from the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse by Bob Jackman and Buddy Baker

Six Scraps #2: Rubber Buns and Liquor

suberunker — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 05:22:59 +0000

Another scraps episode as we prepare for Dom to start learning how to edit some of the S-Words episodes. We'll be back to our more regular schedule once everything is back on track. (Yes, we know that one mic was mixed way higher than the others and we'll be fixing this next time.)

Intro/Outro Music: Cowboy on the Run by Jay Chou

The Sim Game Series

suberunker — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 03:35:11 +0000

This week we return to discuss more video games, specifically the Sim Game series that was popularized by Maxis Games. We go through our first Sim games, the simulation game series, and our Top 3 Sim games. Enjoy our return! (Somehow we also talk about Inspector Gadget.)

Intro/Outro Music: Various Songs from Sim City 2000.

Stuff & Suggestions #29: With Both Your Girlfriends

suberunker — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 03:14:46 +0000

We take a look at your poll results (from the one's we've been using on the website) plus another quick mailbag segment this week! We hope you enjoy this brief discussion based entirely around your mail.

Sailor Moon

suberunker — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 04:21:30 +0000

[Editor's Note: I didn't chastise the guests enough this week because they didn't speak well into the mics. Thus, there are some sound issues. Apologies. I will whip them into shape next week.] This week we look at a show that started a whole wave of anime invasion, Sailor Moon. As you might have hoped, it's just guys sitting around talking about a show that was never targeted towards them and the usual nerdy banter that comes with it. It's a bit weird this week. Really weird. Oh, and we also go through our Top 3 Magical Girl anime shows. Yep, weird.

Intro/Outro Music: Moonlight Densetsu (American and Japanese versions)

Stuff & Suggestions #28: Bite Danny Again

suberunker — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 04:04:51 +0000

Just a quick mailbag this week. We hope you enjoy! (Stay tuned after the show for a special cut outtake from the older Staffing Stuff: Anime Expo show.)

Spaceman Spiff (a look at Calvin & Hobbes)

suberunker — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 04:36:36 +0000

This week we look at one of our childhood favorites - Calvin and Hobbes (through his popular sci-fi persona of Spaceman Spiff). The comic strip was actually a big part of growing up for all of us, so it's one of those topics that is very nostalgic and memorable for us. We hope you enjoy as we discuss our favorite moments and brief bits on how Calvin & Hobbes changed comic strips.

Shin Seiki Evangelion

suberunker — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 06:33:24 +0000

A big, big topic this time around as we take a look at Shin Seiki Evangelion (or Neon Genesis Evangelion for the US folks). We go briefly into the series, discuss some bits about Gainax, and really use the topic as a launching pad for one of the topics that's been requested for a long time: our top 5 anime series. Buckle up kids, cause this is a long one.

Intro/Outro Music: Cruel Angel's Thesis by Yoko Takahashi

Sesame Street

suberunker — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 05:36:38 +0000

It's another blast from the past this week! We remember our fondness of the popular children's show, Sesame Street. We explore our first memories, the best public broadcast shows, opinions on Elmo, and our Top 3 Sesame Street characters. Please enjoy!

Intro/Outro Music: Theme from Sesame Street

School

suberunker — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 06:15:31 +0000

Back to school! Well, kind of. It's back to school for some of us, and that means it's time to discuss a near-universal event that happens to everyone: school years. We go through a brief discussion of our school lives, what we did, our favorite classes, our favorite years, and some new stories that were even new to our own hosts. By the way, we get *VERY* sidetracked about 15 minutes in. So, please excuse the very strange moments of stupidity.

Intro/Outro Music: Can I Be a Star by Burnshee Thornside

Staffing Stuff: An Anime Expo Special

suberunker — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 05:39:46 +0000

While Kevin works on post-production of the Simon Belmont episode (heavy noise to minimize), here's a bonus episode that Dom recorded with some of the S-Words crew while staffing Anime Expo. He even bothered to keep them up past bedtime for this one so they might be a bit sleepy. In fact, let's just say this episode is on Staffing.
