Time Pals are a podcast of geek dads using their mid-life years to talk about nerd culture instead of learning to brew IPAs or lifting weights. Two times a month they get together to overanalyze the media they pretend to enjoy. We didn't amass true wisdom, but we do know comic books, retro video games, and so much television.

It's Christmas time for your pals, and this week, we take a lighthearted, maybe slightly too in our cups, look at our geekiest holiday traditions.

The last Minisode of 2024 aims for a definitive answer to a decades old holiday question: “Is Die Hard a Christmas Movie?”
The pure nerd rage team of Underscore and Nickell go against the squad of ShadoSpartan, Jon Powell, and a special guest, Die Hard aficionado, and practicing attorney Phineas J Poon, Esq, in a debate to determine whether the action movie classic counts as a Christmas movie too!
Ho HO HO now Underscore has a soundboard. . .

Time Pals X Black Curtain Club Podcast: Saturday Morning Nightmares
Time Pals Podcast
05/16/25 • 56 min
This week, the Time Pals bring their flashlights and emotional support wine as they dig up the creepiest, weirdest, and most nightmare-inducing moments from the kids' shows we grew up with.
Too scared to face it alone, hosts Mike Underscore and Jon Powell enlist their friends Angie and Becca from the Black Curtain Club Podcast to hold their hands as they explore scenes like Invader Zim tasting his own flesh baloney, Phantom 2040 introducing a family annihilator, Punky Brewster getting trapped in a horror movie, and many more surprisingly cursed Saturday morning cartoons.
Check out the Black Curtain Club Podcast everywhere you get your scary pods or check out their IG tag on this post.

Jon's Genre Smash: Final Fight vs Streets of Rage, Time Crisis vs Area 51, and more!
Time Pals Podcast
11/22/24 • 59 min
This week Jon Powell attempts to rip friendships apart the only way he can: By asking a barrage of retro game questions making them pick a side. Mario or Sonic? Time Crisis or Area 51? Madden or NFL Quarterback Club? Nothing is safe from his Genre Smash. Not even YOU. Think you know your Pals? Not when Final Fight vs Streets of Rage is at stake.

The Time Pals wrap up their retrospective on the early 2000’s Best Picture winners and should-have-won-ers with special guest “Hollywood Fringe Legend” Veronica Matthews. The fight to correct past Academy mistakes continues! Sould Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby be acknowledged for its comedic impact or is Jon Powell so woefully wrong? Where the eff is The Last King of Scotland or The Dark Knight? And how the heck did Nickell end up with twenty nominees?

Time Pals: Do the Oscars Worst
Time Pals Podcast
03/14/25 • 67 min
This week the Time Pals are going to the movies, only thistime they’re playing their version of “Eff, Marry, Kill” with some the most questionable Best Picture winners from the 1990’s. From bloated epics to forgettable dramas, join your pals as they break down which films didn’t deserve their golden statues and, more importantly, find the films that truly needed some Oscar glory.
Would you replace American Beauty with Man on theMoon? Are you the kind of person to dropkick Driving Miss Daisy for Batman? Are you a Thin Red Line apologist or are you wrong?
Join us as we re-write Oscar history and do what our parents’generation didn’t have the guts to do: Nominate Natural Born Killers.
Got a movie you think deserved the gold? Let us know! And don’t forget to subscribe, rate, and time pal responsibly.

The Nickell Velocity: 2 Nickell 2 Furious
Time Pals Podcast
01/10/25 • 62 min
The Time Pals return for Season 4 by handing the reins over to future dystopian senator, hyperactive philosopher, and psychosis pop culture connoisseur, Nickell, for a second round of questions from an ADHD mind. How would you answer the questions like, “John Candy vs Chris Farley: Pick one and the other’s entire catalogue disappears forever!”, “If you have just enough time to watch one last movie before you die (hopefully going out in a hail of bullets like John Dillinger) what would it be?”, and “If you could choose five liquids to shoot from your fingers what would they be?”
Join the Time Pals for the follow-up to “The Nickell Vicinity” with “The Nickell Velocity 2: 2 Nickell 2 Furious!”
Wanna play along? Listen to the episode and contact us via Facebook, Instagram, or e-mail us at [email protected] and let us know.
