Loads of fun this week talking about Joey's trip with his son on their very first scout camp out. BLOOD CIRCLE!!!! Good times to be young, stupid, and a Boy Scout.

Good chapters. Nothing bad except the women are still annoying. I didn't even really have any big questions. Maybe I go a little overboard with one of my rants about chivalry. You decide. Continued in-attempts to make sure spelling is correct. Chapters and summary below the fold.

This weeks episodes were pretty lackluster in my opinion. There were only really a couple things that happened to push the real story along. I am frankly surprised at why they would bother with doing filler episodes. Just make awesome stuff, and if that means your season is shorter, then so be it. This tv podcast covers episodes 7 and 8 of Battlestar Galactica Season 3.

Monday, July 8. 2013Podcast 169: You Fools
The hybrid is one of the cooler pieces to the Cylon mythos that we have seen recently. The interior of their base-ship was also pretty neat. Joey has officially been introduced to the idea of the "final 5" and so the hunt begins to discover who they will be. This tv podcast covers episodes 5 and 6 of Battlestar Galactica Season 3.

These are without a doubt, the best chapters of the story we have read so far. They were fast paced, exciting, and entertaining. I remember telling Joey when I first listened to them that these felt like I was reading a D&D adventure. I felt part of it at every step of the process. And while it has been weird that Rand has barely played a part in the overall story, Jordan brings him in at the end with such power that I am blown away. This book compels me to want to read more of this series. Continued in-attempts to make sure spelling is correct. Chapters and summary below the fold.

Back from our very not relaxing time off. BSG continues to knock our socks off with amazing story and visual effects.

This tv podcast covers episodes 3 and 4 of Battlestar Galactica Season 3.

Great chapters to read, even though they take place within the White Tower and deal with all the women's issues I hate so much. Thankfully most of that seems to be curtailed. And we get to hear about The Amerlan's Uncle Juan. Continued in-attempts to make sure spelling is correct. Chapters and summary below the fold.

Good news everyone, we've finally broken Joey. He did not handle the little curveball that BSG threw at him this week. Don't worry, he is a resiliant one and should bounce back just fine. This tv podcast covers episodes 17 and 18 of Battlestar Galactica Season 2.

Sadly these were kind of on the crappy end of the BSG spectrum. But we still managed to have some fun abusing the bad parts. Plus Joey is one step closer to his dream of world domination through Parliamentary Procedure. This tv podcast covers episodes 15 and 16 of Battlestar Galactica Season 2.

Maggie Gyllenhaal is a really good actress and a very attractive lady. Both Joey and I think so. We have no idea why people don't like her. We forgot to say that during our podcast movie special about Stranger Than Fiction. Great film. Easily one of Will Ferrell's best works. Both Joey and I give it 2 thumbs up. But seriously, who doesn't like dipping cookies in milk? Duration: 1h 08m 51s

I think I enjoy this book a little more. Maybe because I didn't bother to read all the stuff about Selene. Plus things seem to make a bit more sense, this time around. But I still don't like this book that much. Continued in-attempts to make sure spelling is correct. Chapters and summary below the fold.
