Episode 314 – Put the Sexy Away
This Week: Kevin enters the Magical Studio in the Sky, Gangnam styling and declaring box office prediction victory. Kristin just rolls her eyes at him.

Finally, Kevin and Kristin chat about the DVD and Blu-ray choices for the week before Kristin makes a run for the hills to avoid Kevin for the next couple weeks.

Episode 310 – An Armenian Paris Hilton with a Big Butt
This Week: Kevin tries to claim credit for his box office predictions, but Kristin quickly becomes hip to his jive-turkey plan. Soon, Kevin moves on to analyze the similarities between Michael Bay movies and the Twilight franchise, suggesting that if one type is dangerous and offensive, the other is as well. Eventually, they move on to reviewing the new films out there (or rather reviewing the one film they actually had a chance to see). They stick it to G.I. Joe: Retaliation and then show some relief for not having to sit through the new films from Stephenie Meyer and Tyler Perry. Kevin takes the opportunity to offend people with a statement of sacrilege before prattling on about his spring break Trekathon. Meanwhile, Kristin hangs her head in shame for her co-host.

OSNAP #19: Not a Porn Star
OSNAP: Not a Porn Star
Kevin and Merrill kick off this week’s podcast with an in-depth discussion of J.J. Abrams and whether he’s the right fit for the new Star Wars movie. Then they move on to more random discussion, including what’s ailing Merrill’s dog and how a string of bad decisions led him to become drunk for the first time in his life. Discussion continues about the dangers of integration (regarding technology, not races, you sensitive idiots) and how it’s all a generational thing. Eventually, the talk leads to pornography and why Kevin thinks adult film actresses should be protected by teachers’ unions. Oh, snap!

Episode 261 – Estrogen Week
This Week: It’s “Estrogen Week” in the Magical Studio in the Sky, where we celebrate chick flicks not because we love them but because those are the only big releases in theaters. So naturally, Kevin invites another dude into the Magical Studio in the Sky to talk about said chick flicks. They also talk about Chimpanzee, the height of various actors, Michael Bay’s penchant for racism, interacting with filmmakers they don’t particularly like and a Fat Guy Five about the awfulness that is Nicholas Sparks movies. They also throw in some DVD and Blu-ray recommendations before spraying down the studio with testosterone and declaring themselves awesome.

This Week: Kevin welcomes Rudie Obias from Gordon and the Whale into the Magical Studio in the Sky. Even though Kevin hasn’t seen any of the films this week (with no thanks to the studios, who didn’t screen them anywhere in his state), he’s able to talk about them.

Together they chat about box office, the state of 3D versus ticket price, DVD picks and a look at five fun films (and film series) aimed at the 14-year-old boy in all of us.
