Breaking Bad News – Monday 09/12/11 Edition

Hello!  In case you missed the news, a business trip to Chicago is going to delay our podcast this week.  Instead of posting Monday night, it’s going to drop Tuesday evening.  In the meantime, hopefully our instant reviews (this one is mine, and this one is Jim’s) will tide you over. I have to give…

Jim’s Breaking Bad Instant Review – “Bug” – 409

Looking for A.Ron’s take? In an episode of Breaking Bad that had the intensity of a season-ender, I had to keep reminding myself that we’re still 4 episode away from the climax!  I’m honestly not sure my mind can handle another icy conversation with Gus or any more tension between Walt, Jess & Mike.  But…

A.Ron’s Breaking Bad Instant Review – “Bug” – 209

Looking for Jim’s take? Sometimes, making predictions about where Breaking Bad is going seems like folly.  Like the Villigan sits back and reads message boards, internet sites, and email (he’s obviously too busy to listen to podcasts, hehe) and just cackles about how far off we are. Even with the leaked episode mini-synopsis we’ve had,…

Breaking Bad News – Friday 09/09/11 Edition

I’ve got an unusually fat Friday news post!  First up, a relatively fascinating piece I found on the concept of “toxic masculinity” at the provocatively named Jezebel.com.  Gender issues is of personal interest to me, I like examining how concepts of privilege shade our day to day lives, and to look at other people’s perspectives differ from…

Breaking Bad News – Thursday 09/08/11 Edition

The question of Gus’s sexuality has been a hot topic on the internet this week.  I found this article interesting, as it is written by an openly gay man, and he expresses frustration at Vince Gilligan for being sort of wishy washy on his take on the subject as heard on the Breaking Bad Insider…

Breaking Bad News – Wednesday 09/07/11 Edition

Sorry about yesterday.  The good news is, I did get a lot of work done, and Casa A.Ron has functional indoor plumbing once more.  The bad news is all the crawling around in crawl spaces and hefting big ass water tanks and softner systems has wrecked my body.  I’m not quite at Hank level immobility,…

Breaking Bad News – Tuesday 09/06/11 Edition

I have some legitimately bad news to break today, as my well’s pressure tank basically exploded yesterday, flooding my garage and leaving me without the all important H2O.  Consequently, I’m taking the day off to replace it.  If the task goes quick enough, I’ll post later on today, if not, I’ll do a super-sized news…

408 – Hermanos

Hope everyone had a safe and happy Labor Day. Jim and I were hard at work making podcasts in the lab, and this is the latest result. We talk about all things Gus, Jesse’s shirt, Chilean history, perfect storms, the significance of eyeballs, and more listener feedback than you can shake a GPS tracker at.

Breaking Bad News – Monday 09/05/11 Edition

Happy Labor Day!  I hope everyone is enjoying some hard won time off with friends and family.  In case you missed it, Jim and I dished a whole lot of BrBa content out last night.  First, there was our new, experimental audio instant review.  Then, we did our traditional instant takes.  Here is mine, and…
