25: Want Some Candy?
Life's a REC - August 03, 2022 05:00 - 47 minutes ★★★★★ - 2 ratingsAre the Predator movies more than just aliens versus muscles? Do they deserve credit for being more high brow than Morton Downey Jr’s presence in Predators 2 would suggest? And why the heck doesn’t Bryan think Danny Glover was absolutely beef cake in his role? What’s life’s great hunt anyway? In...

23: Magic the Blathering
Life's a REC - May 18, 2022 14:43 - 43 minutes ★★★★★ - 2 ratingsWhat is Magic? Is it all sorcerers, and illusionists, or is it another word for something we experience?

22: Event Body Horizon Parts
Life's a REC - May 11, 2022 05:00 - 49 minutes ★★★★★ - 2 ratingsYou probably don’t remember the philosophically-astute observations of the 90’s horror thriller Body Parts with Jeff Fahey, but Bryan and David do, and it stirs some ancient roots in their assumptions about good (Sam Neil from Event Horizon) and bad (Sam Neil from Event Horizon). Basically, if y...
21: Slasher Jesus and Chocolate Blood
Life's a REC - April 20, 2022 05:27 - 48 minutes ★★★★★ - 2 ratingsEven the combination of words in this title don’t do justice to just how much random material Bryan and David get out of discussing Easter.

Life's a REC - March 09, 2022 06:00 - 54 minutes ★★★★★ - 2 ratingsIf you thought we were being ironic about the “hate” we have for each other, this episode is for you. Bryan and David trade ‘chingasos’ because David is too jaded to enjoy a well-done superhero film, and Bryan is too enthusiastic to criticize an awful cameo. Come for the Batman discussion. Stay ...
17: I Must Break You
Life's a REC - February 23, 2022 21:57 - 46 minutes ★★★★★ - 2 ratingsWell if finally happened, we didn’t have a topic!

Life's a REC - February 02, 2022 06:00 - 48 minutes ★★★★★ - 2 ratingsIs the modern Western dead as fried chicken?

14: Writer’s Blockhead
Life's a REC - January 12, 2022 06:00 - 45 minutes ★★★★★ - 2 ratingsIs writing something that’s personal, or does the fate of the world depend on the right adverb, and adjective? We answer that question the only way we know how: by taking detours about Ben Affleck’s inability to sell condos, and Bryan’s utter disrespect for the 25th Hour. Produced by Bryan Ort...
13: The WORLD'S END
Life's a REC - January 05, 2022 03:29 - 50 minutes ★★★★★ - 2 ratingsOur latest episode is about the apocalypse, and how our own baggage informs the oblivion we think we deserve.

02: What’s a hockey?
Life's a REC - October 06, 2021 06:41 - 52 minutes ★★★★★ - 2 ratingsBryan is a hilarious stereotype: a nerd traumatized by sports. David is the obnoxious stereotype of ‘Jock beats up Nerd’ bully.
