We are joined by John from Google At A Glance to discuss women of the night and narcotics. Not really, but we seem to bring it up a LOT. Go fig.

Feedback:

Hi Guys,Did it seem that I dropped off the planet? I live near NYC and Storm Sandy closed my offices for Nov + Dec last year. As such, I was working remotely, no commute and no chance to listen to your pod casts. My offices are now reopened and my commute is back ... as is my podcast listening. Anyway, some comments on your various podcasts (and don't feel that you need to include any / all of this in your next podcast) ...Latest Iran work attacking banksI did some reading on that and it appeared to be attacking the bank records ... drilling into their files and changing various arabic words to nonsense. That doesn't strike me as that smart (solved by restoring from a back up as you pointed out) but also targeting the people. I would like to think that the Government of the US would target the Iranian Government and not the Iranian people.FBI / Hezbollah twitter feedApart from the issues you pointed out - if your enemy was using twitter to organize their attacks, wouldn't you like them to keep doing that so that you can track them. Sounds like they might be giving away plans.Blackberry / RIMThis company will not die (this year or next). There is enough corporate accounts (my company for one) that is still buying BB devices. BTW - my company is trailing providing corporate email to smart phones ... BUT! you have to provide the smart phone and the data plan. No thank you.XBox and ConnectEnjoyed your chat about the eye / hand control and TVs. One solution is to issue a conch shell with the controller and then program the controller to only recognize the person holding the shell. However, that might lead to a critical breakdown in the structure of our society.Cheers,RuffHeadlines:Talking Point:

  • On A Break

    02:09||Season 3
    Do you know how sometimes life gives you lemons? They say to take those lemons and make lemonade with them, but have you ever made lemonade? Squeezing those lemons takes time! Plus, you have to add so much sugar that stirring it until it dissolves takes forever! My point is that making lemonade takes a lot of time and effort. (I am also now craving a glass of lemonade. What have I done?) Anyway, life has gotten a bit too real for us here at Stolendroids Podcast, so we need to take a minute to catch our breath. But don't worry because we're not going anywhere! We're currently preparing for Salt Lake FanX on September 16th through the 18th at the Salt Palace Convention Center. We will be back in October doing what we love to do. In the meantime, if you have suggestions for topics we should discuss upon our triumphant return, hit us up on Twitter or Facebook and let us know. 
  • 439. The Episode with a List

    59:41||Season 3, Ep. 439
    Conventions appear to be happening again, which means people will be spending lots of money. And if you have ever been to a fan convention, you know that a good portion of that money will be spent by those who want to meet their favorite celebrities. But if you have ever paid for a photo op or an autograph, you know that the time you get to spend with the person you're paying to meet is fleeting. Sometimes, you may only get a few seconds with them! But what if you had more time? What if you could talk with them about anything that you wanted? If given the opportunity, what celebrities would you choose to hang out with for a few hours? What would you do with them? What questions would you ask? Listen as our panelists discuss these very questions as they run through a list of celebrities with whom they would like to spend time. How many hobbits and dwarves are on their lists? And what about Norse gods? Check out the latest episode of Stolendroids Podcast, and then let us know who makes your list!
  • 438. The Loki and Sylvie (Not Mobius) Show

    01:05:09||Season 3, Ep. 438
    Another Marvel television show has come and gone, but this time things are different. Unlike WandaVision or The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki feels like an extremely important part of the MCU as we enter a new phase of storytelling. Why would we say that? Listen to week's episode of Stolendroids Podcast to find out. But Loki isn't the only thing going on in the Stolendroids Universe. Black Widow is suing the Mouse, Kevin Smith's Masters of the Universe: Revelation is predictably angering fanboys everywhere, and LeBron James continues to show why he will never be better than Michael Jordan. And not just on the basketball court either. Yep! We're talking Space Jam!
  • 437. Black Widow's Box Office Bull's-Eye

    51:05||Season 3, Ep. 437
    After numerous delays, Marvel's Black Widow finally arrived in theaters. And Disney+. Yep. In addition to a theatrical release where the latest chapter in the MCU scored $158 million in its first three days at the global box office, Disney also released the anticipated film through Disney+ Premier Access. But the move appears to have been a wise one since it earned more than $60 million through the popular streaming service during its opening weekend.Based on its earnings, it looks like Black Widow is a hit, but is it any good? We break it down on this week's episode of Stolendroids Podcast. Listen as we discuss what we like (and what we don't) about the movie, then let us know your thoughts. And do you think that this is a movie best watched in a theater, or is it okay to watch at home? Let us know!

  • 436. Don't Be a Spoiler

    36:52||Season 3, Ep. 436
    It's Wednesday morning. You're at work sitting in another unnecessary Zoom meeting that really should have been an email. Hoping to make the next hour of your life more tolerable, you visit your favorite social media sites and begin scrolling. Within seconds you are bombarded with spoilers from the newest episode of Loki. Seriously? It has only been out for like six hours! How is the Internet already full of spoilers?Does this sound familiar? Maybe it wasn't Loki that was spoiled. Perhaps it was a different movie or TV show. But you know the feeling. That feeling of anger and rage and disappointment in your fellow man. How could they do this to you? Shouldn't there be some sort of etiquette when it comes to this sort of thing? We're right there with you, which is why that's the topic of conversation on this week's Stolendroids Podcast.  What bothers you most about when people share spoilers? What rules do you think there should be about sharing spoilers? Hit us up on social media and let us know. 
  • 435. Who Herds the Herder?

    01:00:03||Season 3, Ep. 435
    Who watches the watchmen? This is a popular translation of "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" from the writings of Juvenal and can be literally translated as "Who will guard the guards themselves?" It's a theme that has become a popular trope throughout pop culture, including movies, television, and comic books. It also happens to permeate our review of Pixar's Luca. While we do manage to talk about Luca, there is just so much more to talk about than just one movie. Seriously, we had the new trailer for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings drop right before we recorded, so you know we had to discuss that. We also had follow-up news from a previous episode that we felt should be talked about. Throw in some Disney+ and Netflix chatter, and where to get a cold drink on a hot day, and you've got this week's episode of Stolendroids Podcast. 
  • 434. Mr. Game and Watch Exhales E3

    57:18||Season 3, Ep. 434
    Utah Remote-Con 2 has come and gone meaning it's time to get back to our somewhat regular schedule. And what better time to get back into the swing of things than right after E3 2021? With the video game industry's biggest event of the year firmly in the rearview mirror, the Stolendroids panelists recap some of this year's highlights as only they can. With some entertaining discussion surrounding E3, video game updates (inspired by Nintendo's lack of Animal Crossing news), and video games in general, you really don't want to miss this episode. And do you remember Gambit from Nintendo's Game & Watch and Super Smash Bros.? Neither does anyone else. Well, maybe one person does. Seriously. This is a fun episode. Give it a listen then and let us know what you think. 
  • 433. Raya and the Last Dragon

    50:58||Season 3, Ep. 433
    Disney has been making classic animated films for decades. You could even say that it's what they're known for. I mean, they did make Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the first full-length animated feature film, way back in 1937, and they've been cranking out the classics ever since. Sure, they've stumbled along the way, but they always seem to recover. With that in mind, why would you think that a global pandemic would prevent Disney from releasing another animated classic? No, it's not a classic yet, but Raya and the Last Dragon is good enough to be one. From the story to the animation, it is a classic in the making. Unfortunately, it may be one that many people sleep on. DON'T SLEEP ON IT!On this week's episode of Stolendroids Podcast, we share our thoughts on what could be one of Disney's best films in years. Have you seen Raya and the Last Dragon? What are your thoughts? Send us a message through social media!
  • 432. Saturday Morning Cartoons

    58:00||Season 3, Ep. 432
    Remember the days when you would wake up at 6:00 on a Saturday morning, grab a giant bowl of cereal, and plop onto the couch where you would watch cartoons for the next four hours? As a kid, those were the best days. Saturday mornings were yours, and nobody was going to take them away from you. Until they did…On this week's episode of Stolendroids Podcast, we reminisce about the days when it was okay for a kid to watch hours and hours of television. We remember the memory and mourn the loss of the Saturday morning cartoon and all that went with it. The sugar cereal. The amazing commercials. The freedom from having to worry about doing your chores for just a few hours. Saturday mornings were the best!What were some of your favorite Saturday morning cartoons? Did you have any that you just had to watch? And did you have any Saturday morning cartoon rituals? Let us know in the comments or through social media!
