This week Seth and Jeff take a look back at season 2 of MST3K. There are laughs, tears, and quite a bit of talk about Denver the Last Dinosaur.

Once you’ve listened to the podcast, give your two cents about season 2 over on our facebook page, follow us on Twitter, and if you’re in a REALLY great mood stop by our iTunes page and write us a nice review.

Thanks for listening!

Episode 26 – Godzilla vs the Sea Monster!

Do yourselves a favor – grab a slice of pizza and familiarize yourselves with Terry O’Quinn before tonight’s audio log. What am I talking about? Of course you’re already familiar with Terry O’Quinn. Never mind.

This week we discuss the FINAL episode of Season 2 – Godzilla vs the Sea Monster! It’s a pretty good ep… just not AS good of an episode as the previous Godzilla vs Megalon. In our opinion anyway. We’ve been wrong before.

Once you’ve taken in the aural glory that is this week’s audio log, you can head over to our facebook page to chat about it (or anything else), follow us on twitter, AND if you’re feeling like being a real hero to captured pacific islanders everywhere, leave us a review on our iTunes page.

Thanks for listening!

 

 

 

 

Episode 25 – Godzilla Vs Megalon!

He jock it made of steel! KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK! Japanese monster movie time! With a robot! And… other stuff!

We get a kick out of this week’s movie offering, partially because it’s a Japanese monster movie and we love cheesy Japanese monster movies, and also because it’s a pretty great ep of MST3K. Now if you were to quantify HOW great of an ep it is compared to other awesome cheesy Japanese MST3K episodes (Prince of Space and ANYTHING with the word ‘Gamera’ in the title jump to mind), it’s pretty average. We’re celebrating this episode in particular because it’s our FIRST cheesy Japanese monster movie episode. Also it’s great.

Once you’ve spent some time with us, and our friends Godzilla and Jet Jaguar  (I wish!) you should head over and chat us up on our facebook page, and follow us on twitter. If you really want the blessings of the world’s greatest robot Jet Jaguar, leave us a review on iTunes.

Thanks for listening!

Episode 24 – First Spaceship on Venus

CHEESE HUNT! This week we play games. Games are great and fun, especially when they involve coffee and golf pencils and cheese and burritos.

This week we also discuss MST3K S2E11 – First Spaceship on Venus. This is probably one of the least bad films that Joel and the Bots have been forced to watch so far in the show, but that doesn’t mean the riffing suffers. They bring it fast and hard for the whole episode, making First Spaceship on Venus a great episode, and one of the best we’ve seen so far.

Don’t forget to stop by our facebook page and join the episode discussions, or to follow us on twitter for audio log updates. If you’re feeling particularly wonderful, you should leave us a space valentine in the form of an iTunes review too. Because you’re that awesome.

Thanks for listening!

Episode 23 – King Dinosaur!

We’re BACK! And man, things have changed. Except they haven’t really changed that much, but then again… Just listen and you’ll know what I’m talking about.

This episode we discuss MST3K S2E10 – King Dinosaur which is another TERRIBLE Robert Lippert movie tightly bound in a wonderfully hilarious Mystery Science Theater wrapper. If movies could be burritos, this would be the world’s worst yet most hilarious burrito. OH. There’s also a fairly substantial amount of BRUTAL LIZARD MURDER too. That doesn’t really fit into the burrito analogy, but I digress.

Don’t forget to stop by our Facebook Page and join the discussion about MST3K, our show, and high voltage capacitors! You can also follow us on twitter, and leave us a SUPER late Christmas present in the form of an iTunes review.

Also, BUY ONE OF THESE AWESOME T-SHIRTS!

Thanks for listening!

Episode 22 – The Hellcats!

Posted by on Dec 20, 2012 in Gizmonic Institutes Radio | Comments Off

Merry Kronmas! (and Happy Kronmas to our friends in the UK!) Do yourself a favor, go familiarize yourself with Mallory Keaton. I promise, it will help.

Not that she has anything to do with this week’s MST3K Episode S2E9 – The Hellcats. Joel and the bots riff on another biker movie in a string of biker movies (if you’re keeping track, 30% of this season’s MST3K movies so far have been bad biker movies). If you remember our episode about Sidehackers, you’ll be upset to know that The Hellcats shares more than just a flimsy premise and aesthetic. Yay. There are also A LOT of blue riffs this episode, so at least that’s something.

Back on earth it’s commercially the CRAZIEST time of the year – which means you should head over to our tshirt shop and buy one of our new MST3K episode tees up for sale. Proceeds help go to support our show/pay for webspace and hosting, and generally just help us out a lot. Plus you get an AWESOME shirt out of the whole deal! Pretty sweet, eh?

As always we’re on facebook, twitter, and iTunes, where you can bring us some Holiday cheer by leaving us an awesome review!

 

Thanks for listening!

 

Episode 21 – Lost Continent!

Rock Climbing.

 

 

Seriously, the previous sentence speaks for its self.

 

Once you’re done listening to this week’s ep (or even DURING if you’re an effective multitasker) you should head over to our T-SHIRT STORE and pick up one of these AWESOME new Gizmonic Institutes Radio t-shirts.

It features the Gizmonic Institutes geared ‘G’ logo, filled in with EVERY SINGLE MST3K episode name EVER. I may be biased, but I think it’s the best MST3K shirt that has ever been made. Not to mention, every shirt we sell helps us keep making these crazy shows, so it’s a win-win.

You can also stop by our Facebook page and join the random MST3K discussions there, follow us on Twitter, or leave us a review on iTunes.

Episode 20 – Wild Rebels!

Posted by on Nov 15, 2012 in Gizmonic Institutes Radio | Comments Off

I’ll bet you’re excited for the thrilling conclusion to last show’s cliffhanger! Guess what? The conclusion is SO THRILLING that we had to make it a three part trilogy! A Thrillogy?!??! I just thought of that just now and totally haven’t been sitting and waiting to use it at this exact moment.

This week we discuss MST3K S2E7 – The Wild Rebels, an episode that (spoiler alert!) Seth didn’t mind and Jeff didn’t really like all that much. Between Wild Rebels and Sidehackers, it could be possible that Jeff just doesn’t really like motorcycle movies. Who knows? WE DON’T HAVE TIME TO SPECULATE.

When you’re done enjoying this week’s audio log, you should head over to our Facebook page, and join the discussion about all things MST3K (don’t forget to give us a like while you’re there)! You can also follow us on Twitter, and if you find yourself walking around with a heavy heart, but only because your heart is made of gold, you can go to our iTunes page and write us a review there. You’re the best!

Thanks for listening!

Episode 19 – Ring of Terror!

Posted by on Oct 31, 2012 in Gizmonic Institutes Radio | Comments Off

Just in time for Halloween, we have a spoooooooky audio log about a spooooooooooky MST3K episode, S2E6, Ring of Terror! Actually… there really isn’t anything spooky about this audio log, and there is DEFINITELY nothing spooky about Ring of Terror. In fact, this may be the worst movie that Joel and the Bots have had to watch since last season’s Slime People. It really is that bad. But not spooky.

After basking in the afterglow of another great audio log, you should head over to our Facebook page where we discuss past episodes, audio logs, and random things like the abandoned Cincinnati subway system. You can also follow us on Twitter, or if you’re feeling like being a REALLY REALLY great person (or have been a really bad person for a while and want to do something to make up for your poor behavior) stop by our iTunes page and write us a review!

Thanks for listening!

 

Episode 18 – Rocket Attack USA!

Posted by on Oct 5, 2012 in Gizmonic Institutes Radio | Comments Off

You know what people don’t emphasize enough these days? Friendship. It’s important, especially in space. I can’t stress that enough. This week’s episode also features our ship’s elevator.

We discuss Rocket Attack USA, the episode which we accidentally call Rocketship XM no less than TWO times during the audio log. Is it our fault that both movies have similar titles? I don’t think so. Is it our fault that both movies are big stinkers, as well as being total bummers? I certainly hope not. This episode of MST3K was great though. We’re to the part of Season 2 where the show is really starting to find its voice, which means we have great things to look forward to! Also – Rocket Attack USA! is the first episode that features an end of show stinger. Good stuff!

Once you’re done listening, stop by and join the discussion on Facebook, or follow us on Twitter. If you feel like emulating one of the AMAZING people who reviewed our show on iTunes this week, you can stop by there and do that too.

Thanks for listening!
