Couch Surfing Episode 13 - We Ain't Been Shaved
Gibson and Elliot record a podcast! Well, sort of. Episode thirteen
of Couch Surfing supplies John with Chris O'Connor from Geek By
Night, filling in as Scott's replacement. Thanks to John and
YouTube, Chris discovers the modern vampire cult classic, Near
Dark. Civil rights advocate and NRA spokesman, Charlton Heston has
unfortunately passed away, but at least the world still has epic
favorites like Ben-Hur and Planet Of The Apes to remember him by.
Remakes of both Dune and Short Circuit are currently in the works,
which leads to a discussion about how robots will eventually rise
to power and crush us all. Lionsgate may soon give The Monster
Squad the High Definition treatment, even though John is still
hopeful for Night Of The Creeps to be released on DVD soon. Chris
has a substantial theory concerning Versus Movies, but is
distracted when he learns of Armageddon in The Criterion
Collection. The episode concludes with a possible correlation
between African-American Presidents and movies about world
destruction. Keep those co-host requests coming, folks. The
following artists can be heard in this episode:
Don Felder, Bear McCreary, Tangerine Dream, Joe Kraemer, Brian
Tyler, Brian Eno, Styx, MC Lars Horris, The Platters, The Diamonds,
The Perishers, Blondie, The Martinis, Heavens, Sum 41, Slowdive and
Kaiser Chiefs.
