What we’re Enjoying

Jay’s love for comics has led him to a new Marvel series by Garth Ennis about a captured Nick Fury who has to be rescued by Lt. Frank Castle. A wild action, war comic that brings back the feel of the past with the nuances of modern storytelling. Shua listened to an audible exclusive audio drama by actress Felicia Day called Third Eye. It’s her passion project about the magic world and how a ‘chosen one’ didn’t fulfill the prophecy of defeating evil, and is now living in shame. Comedy ensues with a star-studded cast.

Sci-Fi Saturdays

This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay got crazy with a wild Godzilla movie that celebrated the 5oth anniversary of the king of the monsters. Godzilla Final Wars (2004) shows the Earth valiantly fighting monsters everywhere, when aliens arrive too. Who, oh who, will save us? ....oh yeah... Godzill. Check it out today! Make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.

Enjoy Summer!

The season everyone anxiously waits for all year (until it gets here and they complain how hot it is) is finally here! Summer! As we grew up, we had all kinds of fun when school got out. Playing outside until the sun went down, then stalling until mom absolutely made us come in. We’d create games, find ways to stay cool, hang with friends, and so much more. Can we get back to those days? Or are they just a memory? Come with us as we explore the summer!

What did you do during the summer? Do you have more adult ways to enjoy yourself now? First person that emails me with the subject line, “I’ll take a creamsicle” will get a special mention on the show. Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to [email protected]

What we’re Enjoying

Shua couldn’t contain his excitement for both IF and Unfrosted. IF is a very touching story about childhood and imaginary friends with tons of celebrity performances and a new, breakout star. Unfrosted was a hilarious interpretation of how Pop Tarts were created. Get out your toaster and Enjoy! Jay powered through another 5K on Memorial Day. Keep yourself fit and healthy and get out there and do something!

Sci-Fi Saturdays

This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay laid down the base coat with Primer. It is an artistic movie about time-travel that will blow your mind. This one is a thinker, and it pairs well with a brilliant article about the whole thing on Sci-Fi Saturdays. Check it out today! Make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.

Enjoy Martians!

Martians have been a go-to character for a very long time. Even in early literature from the mid 17th century, we saw evidence of our alien neighbors. And when the movies came around, our brothers-from-another-mother-world made for some cool sci-fi stories. Jay and Shua have put together a list of Martians, and other aliens, with clues to their movie or TV show of choice. Join us as we try to guess which ones made the cut.

How did you do on the quiz? Which Martians did we miss? First person that emails me with the subject line, “My other car is a Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator” will get a special mention on the show. Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to [email protected]

Shua was very impressed with George Miller’s latest post-apocalyptic story Furiosa. Action, brilliant cinematography, and smart themes enhance this masterpiece.

Enjoy Fathers!

Did sitcoms influence who Jay and Shua became as fathers? Of course they did! But which of the dozens of TV dads reflect their strongest characteristics? We find dads from 7 decades of shows that, even with their faults found ways to be good for their families. But we also pinpoint some of the other side of the coin with some pretty bad role models. It’s a Father’s Day celebration on Enjoy Stuff.
