Episode 14- Alvin and the Chipmunks


We extend a belated (thanks to some computer issues) Christmas present to everyone, a second holiday episode of Saturday Morning Deathgrip. 


For this episode, we watched the episode of Alvin & the Chipmunks called "Merry Christmas, Mr. Carroll" which you'd never guess from the title, but it's an adaptation of Dicken's A Christmas Carol

In this episode we discus The Codcast (check your local listings!), who David Seville is not related to, the saddest old man in pop culture history, Richard Dreyfuss movies for way too long, and then we antagonize Simon and Theodore in the interview segment. Everything you want from a holiday episode.

By request, if you want to watch this episode- click here and you'll see "Merry Christmas, Mr. Carroll"

Episode 13- X-men



We sure do love Holiday episodes, don't we? Because here we are with a Christmas episode of SMDG. And what a Christmas it is. We, in fact, had ourselves a Morlock little Christmas, as we watched the episode of X-men "Have yourself a Morlock Little Christmas".  

We bucked our normal trend of watching things we despise by watching something we (at least three of us) genuinely love. But that doesn't mean we had nothing to talk about. I even think we avoided getting too technically detailed for you non-X-fans out there, weirdos though you may be. In this episode we discuss the origins of television via catheter ray tubs, who would win a fight between Jean Grey and Gambit (Jean Grey), the crimefighting team of Paper & Currency, the difference between Tim and GC's fanfictions about Rogue, and our greatest concept yet, the Fart Cube.

We also interview Callisto, leader of the Morlocks, who, for a one-eyed genetic freak covered in scars that lives in the sewers, isn't really doing that well for herself.

Listen on iTunes, Stitcher or right here, and have a Very Morlock Christmas!
