Move Review - The Revenant

Well, well.  This film was scarily interesting.  Th bear attack was to close and real for comfort and the various battles against the tribe that were hunting them was intense.  I can see the reason why Leonardo get the many nominations for this movie, but I feel that Tom Hardy was even more convincing in his role.  Overall this movie was amazing and I highly recommend folks to see this film, in theaters if possible.  BTW, the French in this film were dicks!

Grade: 9/10

TV Review - Cutthroat and Funny

This was another cooking show that my wife started watching on Netflix.  It was pretty much the most interesting cooking competition reality show I have ever seen.  The main premise like most cooking shows is to make the best tasting and presentable dishes for the host and the judges to try out and the one who is the most impressive wins, but wait there's more.  A difference in this show is that the contestants get some money before the competition starts and they can use that money while cooking to barter off something the host presents that could be a disadvantage for their competitors.  That to me is the interesting part.  

I also find it entertaining (some episodes) that they do so much trash talking.  I don't remember the chefs talking to each other as much while cooking as the chefs on here did.  The host, Alton Brown is pretty funny and sarcastic, but in a good way.  He is also the host of Good Eats, appears regularly on Food Network Star and Iron Chef America.  Like I said before, the shows are interesting, but I don't think I can follow the show religiously.  This will pretty much be one of her shows.  If I walk in the room while she is watching the show, I will most likely will finish an episode with her.  Maybe even start an another one.


I could not find a preview of the show, but here is a full episode (hopefully it will stay).  Check out the actual show on Food Network or Netflix.  Also visit the Cutthroat Kitchen Website.

Safety Fails and Mishaps Compilation || FailArmy

Podcasts! I Love 'Em!

So over the past five years I have become an avid podcast listener.  I listen to formats like educational, comedy (usually explicit), sports, news and entertainment.  They have turn from an alternative from music while driving or tasking around the house, to the primary source of auditory entertainment.

I would like to share with you my Top Ten All-Time Favorite podcasts I listen to on Stitcher Smart Radio: Radio On Demand.



10)  Christopher Titus PodcastComedian Christopher Titus along with Bombshell Rae and Willie "Jello" Johnson take no prisoners as they try to make sense of out of the insanity behind today's headlines. Titus takes a smart, aggressive stance that is never unbiased, always unbalanced and unhinged. Check the itunes reviews.






9)  Star Wars In Character:  Join us each week as we discuss the lesser known Star Wars characters that often get overlooked. If you are a Star Wars die-hard, you will love the “Star Wars: In Character” podcast!





8)  BrainStuff:  From the HowStuffWorks network, BrainStuff is a podcast that explores the world around us in an attempt to use science to understand everything from the internet to how scratch n sniff stickers work.








7)  The Math Dude:  The Math Dude makes understanding math easier and more fun than you ever thought possible. Host Dr. Jason Marshall provides clear explanations of math terms and principles, and his simple tricks for solving basic algebra problems will have even the most mathphobic looking forward to working out whatever math problem comes their way. If you're getting ready to take the SAT, GRE, or any of the other standardized tests; or if you're going back to school and need to brush up on the basics, Math Dude's Quick and Dirty Tips to Make Math Easier will strengthen your fundamental skills and help you understand the language of math. And if you just want to calculate the tip without using your iPhone and impress all your friends, his tips and tricks are for you too.

6)  StarTalk:  The StarTalk podcast features comedians, scientists and celebrities discussing the intersection of science and pop culture with host Neil deGrasse Tyson, astrophysicist and Hayden Planetarium director. New on demand episodes weekly.










5)  Sklarbro Country:  Sklarbro Country features Randy and Jason Sklar as they give their weekly comedic takes on the worlds of sports and pop culture. You don't have to know about sports to enjoy it, as long as you like silly puns and great comedians.









4)  Meet The Press:  NBC's popular news talk show Meet the Press with moderator Chuck Todd in on demand podcast format. Each episode delivers insightful interviews with the newsmakers of the week. New episodes published weekly on Sunday.









3) NPR Hourly News Summary:  This turned into my news source that brings me four to five snippets of the current news stories from the past hour.  I usually start off my day with this podcast and go back to it every time I re-enter my vehicle or just need something playing in my ears.  Great source to start off for news and then you can research later on through any source for details.






2)  Hollywood Babble-On:  There's no business like HO business. Ralph Garman is the guy you never listen to on morning radio. Kevin Smith is the guy who makes movies you never go see. And yet every week, they have the balls to make fun of their TinselTown peers during SModcast: Hollywood Babble-On! Enjoy this great podcast on demand in weekly installments.





1)  Ten Minute Podcast:  W'PPRECIATECHA!  Created by Will Sasso, Bryan Callen and Chris D'ella.  This is just about these guys just talking about anything that comes to mind.  Will Sasso tries had to keep the show in order, but fussy Bryan and stuffy Chris makes it very hard to keep out of chaos.  Throughout the years, as the fellas got more busy with other projects and stand up touring, Will would bring other friends from his past including, Tommy Blacha, Chad Kultgen and Bobby Lee.  They will also introduce characters like Chank Smith, David Greco, Steve Austin, Hulk Hogan, etc.  






Go on to Stitcher Radio On Demand and check out these Podcasts or the many other amazing podcasts on Stitcher.  You won't be disappointed.

TV Review - Making A Murderer

This was a series that I had hear a lot of people rave about, but I was kind of hesitant because of my bizarre mind set that somethings have enough attention so it does not require mine.  Then all of a sudden my wife brought it up and wondered if I was interested.  My response was "Eh, but if you want to check it out, I will watch it with you."

So we started watching the show and it became a binge.  It was very intriging and invilved.  For the most part it looked very one sided, but I can also see the problem child that Avery could be.  Who know how everything will turn out for this man, but the process was truly screwed up.

Check it out if you like documentaries that could draw you in.  Here is a trailer.  Show is only on Netflix.
