  • Ep 238: Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon

    11/09/2023 Duración: 01h15min

    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!

  • Ep 220: Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

    15/05/2023 Duración: 01h10min

    The problem with not being able to do this show as our only job is sometimes we record stuff in a timely manner but then release it weeks later just because that's how the release schedule shakes out. So we know this isn't timely anymore, but it was when we recorded it okay?? We're talking about the D&D movie this week! It's a great flick and we have a lot of fun discussing it. Mike also leads Josiah in a game of what he thinks Dungeons & Dragons is and it's a blast. You can contact the show at agoodpodcast@gmail.com and @HowStarWarsIsIt on all platforms.
