Bubble Gum Cult

This week, Matt and Quintin have seen Disney's Marvel's Captain America: Civil War, and they're here to spoil the hell out of it (seriously everyone, Spoiler Warning). Marvel as they talk about Captain America! Laugh along as they recount Spectacular Spider-Man jokes! Behold the majesty of the Black Panther along with your friends! With almost everyone getting a cameo, it's a shock the Cult's resident superheroes, Captain Complainer and Half-Black Widow(Man) didn't show up! Maybe they'll get their chance to shine in Infinity War: Part 1. Until then, enjoy the show, True Believers!

Back from their long break, Matt and Quintin went to PAX East this week. They someone miraculously didn't get PAX POX and have survived. Also, they plan to tell you all about it! Or, at least tell you what they saw. Games like Super Daryl Deluxe, We Happy Few, Riot: Civil Unrest, Death Stair and Headlander, to name just a few! They'll also tell you about room temperature hot dogs, long lines and watching people play video games poorly. But not them, though. No way. They're totally pro. Just, don't, like, look over their shoulders while they play, OK? It's really distracting. They didn't mean to do that!

Matt returns this week to get locked in a bunker with Quintin for an entire hour and talk about 10 Cloverfield Lane! Warning: the movie gets spoiled pretty early in the episode, so that's no reason to put them back in the bunker. Please...we don't want to go back in the bunker. Not because we didn't like the JJ Abrams produced/Dan Trachtenberg directed/John Goodman, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and John Gallagher Jr. starring movie, but because we're tired of eating Goldfish. There's a lot of sodium involved with the end of the world.

In the Bubble Gum Cult's first solo podcast, Quintin asks the question on everyone's mind this week: Whatever Happened to Mr. Zeddemore. That's Winston Zeddemore, Ghostbuster extraordinaire. In the wake of the release of the new Ghostbusters trailer, he reflects on the internet's skepticism and outrage about female 'busters and how Ghostbusters shaped his view of the world.

This week it's all about the Merc with a Mouth and the Firewatch...guy...with...a mouth, too? Matt and Quintin talk about the new Fox Marvel movie Deadpool, starring Ryan Reynolds. They've also played Firewatch, the new video game by Campo Santo, about a guy who likes to watch...FOR FIRES! Also it's about relationships and stuff.  Matt also sadly announces he's taking a short departure from the show. But fear not! The show will return very soon with Quintin and some very special guests.

What do Puppy Monkey Baby, Irritable Bowel Syndrome and a girl robot named Apple have in common? Absolutely nothing! Well, except for this podcast. This week, Matt and Quintin are back with a new genre-busting double feature! First up, they chat about their favorite and least favorite Super Bowl ads. Then, they travel back in time to post apocalyptic 1997 to talk about the cult movie Turbo Kid (the discussion is filled to the brim with spoilers, so check out the movie before listening). This podcast was approved by the FDA and is wholly endorsed by a cartoon intestine that loves football. How can you pass it up?

After a week break, Matt and Quintin are back with two great tastes that don't really taste great together, but they needed to fill out an entire show! The first segment is about movies they think everyone should see in a theater. In the second segment, they talk about the fury and triumph in the new indie puzzle game The Witness (with some Spoilers about several sections of the game). So get in line, then draw a line to download this podcast! No, that wasn't the right line. No, not that either. You have to...no, you're not listening to me. Up three squares, over two, down four, now...you know what, don't bother.

This week on Bubble Gum Cult, listeners encounter a wild Reverend Matt and a Sleepy Quintin, and they're here to talk to you about the indie videogame darling Undertale! They tell tales of their encounters with Sans, Papyrus, Undyne, Lesser Dog, Greater Dog and the rest of the gang in this quirky RPG. Seeing that two idiots can somehow form full sentences and publish a podcast fills you with determination!

Everyone's a villain this week. Matt and Quintin have seen the 8th film by Quentin Tarantino, the Hateful Eight. They didn't really like it! So they talk about what bugged them about the movie and end up chatting a whole lot about what they loved about Tarantino's other films. An episode so filled with hate you'd think it was another show about the Walking Dead!

This week, Matt and Quintin talk about the Netflix Original Series (based on some Marvel comics so maybe not THAT original) Jessica Jones, starring Krysten Ritter and David Tennant. They also spoil the hell out of it, so you should probably check it out before listening. If we had Kilgrave's powers, we'd command you to listen! But, if you're reading this description, you are probably already listening, once again proving we'd make the worst super villains. 

The Bubble Gum Cult is back to ring in another New Year, and what a better way to do it than to tell you all about the Stuff 'N Thaaaaaangs that Matt and Quintin loved this year. They each talk about their 7ish favorite things from 2015, all of which may be entirely obvious if you've been listening to the show. Speaking of, a huge thanks to everyone who has been listening since we decided to start this lunacy again. We'll see you all in 2016!

Happy Life Day, brothers and sisters! This week it's Star Wars. NOTHING BUT STAR WARS. Give us those Star Wars! Don't let them end! Unsurprisingly, Matt and Quintin have seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens. HUGE SPOILERS inside as they talk about lightsabers, tiny alien creatures and the childlike wonder of seeing a Star Wars movie they liked! It's a Space Christmas Miracle.

After last week's naughtiness and punishment, Matt and Quintin return with lists they're checking twice, talking about their 5 favorite Christmas movies, with a couple of extra shout outs and mentions for good cheer. Some traditional, some disputed, but all about the reason for the season. The reason for the season is watching ABC Family for 20 straight night, right?

Matt and Quintin have been very, very naughty boys this holiday season. So bad, in fact, Santa has sent THREE different Krampuses (Krampi?) to the Cult this week! The guys watched the films Krampus: The Reckoning, A Christmas Horror Story and Krampus and tell you which filmmakers will be receiving whippings...and probably lickings. Because that's how Krampus rolls. 

This week, Matt and Quintin talk about five things that snuck up on them. Shocking tales of movies, games and TV that simply appeared from nowhere, seeming to manifest from the ether and straight into their eyeball holes. Come on in and hear tales of the pop culture that popped up and said "BOO!", but then stuck around in our hearts and minds.

This week, Matt and Quintin watched The Hunger Games : Mockingjay, Part 2. They talk about missed opportunities, weird pacing, poor motivations and Donald Sutherland's charming evil laugh. That guy is a real straight shooter. Tells it like it is. Builds walls to separate the districts, you know? Man, that sounds familiar. Anyway, volunteer as tribute and listen to this episode! We promise more than one of you will make it out alive (but we're not responsible for the psychological scarring listening to our rambling will inflict). 

This week Matt and Quintin talk about board games behaving badly. Or at least board games influencing people to act like complete jerk stores. Tales of accused cheating and domestic disputes abound. Plus the greatest insult ever. So come on in, flip a game boarde, curse at some children and stop talking to your friends and family! It'll feel like that awkward holiday all over again! Yeah, that's right, you know the one...

This week, Matt and Quintin Journey into Imagination, have an Extra TERRORestrial Alien Encounter, and dine at Prime Time as they talk about their favorite Disney theme park ride characters. Will Matt and Quintin escape the Disney Vault? What even is the difference between Toad Hell and Regular Hell? Find out, dear listeners!

This week, Matt and Quintin have read Felicia Day's book, You're Never Weird on the Internet (Almost), and are confronted with the fact that the internet is a cold, unfeeling place. Like space, but with more kittens and terrible jpegs we all wish we could scrub from our brains. Felicia's pioneering Internet series The Guild leads them to talking about Broad City, Garfunkel and Oates and Melissa Hunter. You'll be glad you made the trip from North Brother Island for this one!

Another week, another discussion from the psychologically damaged duo of Matt and Quintin. But what's this? This is Halloween, so episode delves deep into what could have caused this deep psychic scarring and unsurprisingly, it's pop culture related. They talk about the movies that scared them as kids and turned them into the bathroom avoiding, clown fearing, "functional" adults they are today!
