FBSD Episode 26: Are you ready for some football?

The Super Bowl is this weekend and we take the opportunity to discuss Football movies.

I woefully neglected Wildcats, but otherwise I think we hit on most of the stereotypical football/sport films that we’ve seen.

We talk about Scott Sigler’s ‘The Rookie’.

Promo: Billibub Baddings and The Case of The Singing Sword

Stu checks in with a voice mail and we get into a longish discussion about Sci-Fi on television before pimping the action on the comments section of the site.

We talk up Pickle Tales, which is about to enter its final round. Good luck, Laurence and Phil!

FBSD Episode 25: To Pimp a Dwarf

Yes… You read the length correctly.

This is another first for us here. We’ve got a special guest from half a continent away. The man, the myth, the pimp… Tee Morris.

Tee joins me for a chat about his new podiobook, “Billibub Baddings and The Case of The Singing Sword”.

From there we talk about “24” and Tee’s Evo Terra-esque “Wash Dies!” moment during the four hour finale. (Note to Tee: Beware the chicken scissors.) We talk about podiobooks, Van Helsing, Metropolis, 24, Daredevil, The Hulk, Pirates, The Davinci Code, and kids on podcasts.

You can find everything Tee at www.teemorris.com. You can subscribe to Billibub at www.teemorris.com/billipodcast/

FBSD Episode SE2: Billibub Baddings Chapter 1

This is something a bit different for the Smackdown.

Friend of the Fanboy Smackdown, premier podiobook author, and all around pimp, Tee Morris is just about to release his next podcast audiobook (podiobook) ‘Billibub Baddings and The Case of The Singing Sword’.

He has given us permission to release this first chapter to you guys. This is a full month before the official release of the podcast on February 14th, 2007. I’ve given this a listen and can say that I’m excited to hear the rest of what Tee has in store for the dwarf detective.

Yeah, you read that right. This is a book that erases the lines of genre and sets up some fun characters to tell, what looks to be, a fun story. Not only is the story shaping up nicely, but Tee has enlisted a Who’s Who list of podcasting talent to round out the cast… though oddly I didn’t notice anyone named Tony in that list… He has also hooked up with some incredible musicians. This podcast novel is shaping up to be an audio feast.

Take a listen, let us know what you think here and let Tee know what you think as well. And if you happen to think of it, let him know where you heard about Billi. If we get some good response, maybe we can even get Tee to come on and chat about some movies and the book for us on the show!

More from us soon, we are just finishing our holiday break and recovering from over indulging in all of the joyous festivities and spirits of the season.

For more information on Tee Morris check out his website: www.teemorris.com. Also, check out Baddings Investigations, Inc. – The official blog of the book: www.teemorris.com/billipodcast/

FBSD Episode 23: Science Fiction and Time Travel in Films

(Sorry for the late show, new technical set-up and a sick kid caused a weekend-long delay)

Hello….. Genie here.

Tony and Tony get into some long rambling conversation about Science Fiction movies and end up talking about Time Travel. I don’t see what the big deal is, a snap of the fingers and I can travel to any point in time. I don’t get why they have to spend a whole show talking about it, but what do I know, I’m just an all-powerful Genie… I’m gonna head to the future a couple of weeks to get to the new episodes of Smallville.

FBSD Episode 22: The Bond Girls

Hello everybody! Chris and Eliz from Two Girls and a Podcast here and we have taken over the Fanboy Smackdown studio.

We won’t lie to you; we have the boys tied up in the backroom. How else would we be able to rummage through their stuff, add a little pink to the decor, and rearrange their movie paraphernalia action figures into compromising positions? Okay, perhaps there wasn’t any pink…

But since Tony and Tony are laying down on the job, we figure it was vitally important to provide you, the listeners, with the female perspective on a guy movie and not just any guy movie. No, no. We are talking about the king of the guy movie heroes, James Bond. That is
right, we get down and dirty with the new Bond film, Casino Royale. We promise that we don’t get too girly.

Well, on with the show and not a moment too soon cause it is looking like Tony is starting to gnaw his way through those bindings. We really should have tied that tighter. Oops! Gotta go.

Enjoy!
