Ladies and Gentlemen...

He had been warned by his friends and the US State Department. It was begged he reconsider his travel plans. However, he was led there by his sense of adventure and, as with all men, once that has spoken, all good reason flies out the window. Michael is currently safe in an undisclosed location.

We all must wonder, though... will he remain safe? Will he contract a deadly disease? Will his throat be slit ear to ear on a mountainside bus ride? Will he find that which he seeks... the legendary crystal skull (or is it something else? - Your guess is as good as mine. No... my guess is actually better)? Will Dead Air Podcast be reduced to a one-man show? (You'd better hope not because I don't have NEARLY enough follow-through to keep this thing going!)

This video was recently released...




Judge for yourself!

Hello? Hello? Damn cell phone.

We got new cell phones this month and Steve and I talk about them. Exciting! I picked up the LG VX-9900 or the enV and Steve got the newer, smaller enV2. Because of my giant thumbs I didn't get the enV2. I text like a Japanese high school girl so I need a larger qwerty keypad.

Steve has started to Twitter but it's a slow process. Until I can get it on him phone I don't think you will see all that many updates. You can always follow me. I update all the time. Usually from the john.

The song at the beginning of the show was from the original Broadway recording of Cabaret. The last song was an oldie but a goodie from the mid to late 1990s. That's right, the Primitive Radio Gods hit, "Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth with Money in My Hand." Maybe the worst piano solo in any #1 hit.

Dead Air Podcast Summer Blockbuster Preview

Welcome to the Dead Air Podcast 2008 Summer Movie Preview!


Steve and I go over six summer movies this week and talk about what we think about them. Why would you care what we think? I have no idea. Steve also gives me hell for watching Iron Man with out him. About 1 mile away from his house. Oops.
Enjoy the show and the trailers below.

Indiana Jones
It wouldn't be a summer movie preview with out Dr. Jones! Steve and I are sure that the movie will do well, but is this just a money grab?

The Happening
What's Happening the movie? No, this is not another 70s television show turned into a movie like the Awesome Starsky and Hutch (do it!) It's the new creepy movie from M. Night Shamalamadingdong. Basic idea of the movie? Something is killing pretty much everyone and seems to have the ability to chase people. And if you were a sentient ball of invisible death, wouldn't you go after Marky Mark Wahlberg?

The Love Guru
What looks like a character from an Austin Powers movie that was left on the cutting room floor, "The Love Guru" truly looks like a turd. Is it worth even the $4 to rent it? I don't know. I'll have to see the reviews but I think I might wait for it on Netflix.

Batman: The Dark Knight
Batman is awesome. One of the last movies that Heath Ledger made before his death. Should be fantastic and be one of the top 3 box office hits of the summer. Unfortunately, with a PG-13 rating (for "intense sequences of violence and some menace"), this likely will be the first movie Maggie Gyllenhaal doesn't get naked in.

Step Brothers
Will Ferrell. Done. We're there. Even better, it's not a sports movie.


Tropic Thunder
This might be a dark horse comedy like Something About Mary was. Or it might struggle to make $30 million before it goes to DVD. Who knows. I love the trailer.
