The Giant Beastcast: Episode 55

I would love to hear Austin on a comic podcast, he's got some deep knowledge there.

Superman can be written very well, aside from all star and red son, I also enjoy secret origin and max landis current series. The problem is his power set but that also leads to weak or uninteresting foes.

I heard that Alex said on the mixlr that Peter Stomare was the guest but it fell through. Can anyone confirm?

If it's like the youtube thing I believe they are doing to do it on all platforms. Outside of it being a dumb thing to do (and they love that) they will also get more people watching that might not know about Giantbomb.

It's all good. I just don't want to have to go back to Facebook and have mom place on my wall, LOL-H, Lots of love Harry. :O)

I second that and I will add.....

As far as I'm concerned, the ultimate annoying song:

On the topic of earworm songs, if the listener wants to piss off their spouse, I've got a few ideas. Some of these I think are legitimately good songs, but could really get old on repeat, such as:

Plastic Raincoats In The Pig Parade by Ariel Pink

Bike by Pink Floyd

Wow by Injury Reserve [Explicit Lyrics]

Barbie Girl by Aqua [Warning: Depending on your location, using this could be considered a war crime.]

Best of luck with your war.

count me as one of the people who love mass effect 1 waaaay more than 2. 1 was an rpg...2 was just another stupid shooter. NO ONE who was a computer rpg player liked dark messiah...go check out PC Gamer on that. On man that was a terrible game. Heroes of might and magic is where it is out now.

And wait - @austin_walker you LIKE the Last dragon...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ErdfNR7q-o

I thought for sure this would be one of the things that modern society thought was racist. I mean I love it to as a crazy silly 80's movie but I wouldn't call it a great movie...

As for who would put there purse in a seat someone else had a coat in I would say most people under 30. Facebook and such has made personal space all but completely gone.

I had to come here just to say thank you guys for always managing to put a huge smile on my face and literally make me laugh in public. I started listening to this podcast on a whim sometime back in the early 20s (episodes) and it has quickly become practically my favorite. You guys are so smart and so funny, and make my heart super happy and warm. Thank you :).

Here's an annoying song!

Annoying songs hot tip: German Schlager music.

This song by lovesick Master Chief is particularly weird and terrible:

A couple of my most unwanted earworms are actually short bits of songs that go on loop in my head.

Most recently it has been Yolandi's chorus bit in Ugly Boy by Die Antwoord, and 'bubble butt, bubble bubble bubble butt' over and over and over from Bubble Butt by Major Lazer.

@fisk0:

Wasnt the joke that the band got sick of teens who didnt listen to their other songs and just constantly requesting it at all their concerts?

Jesus, Vinny has been on fire the last few weeks.

I know I'm late to the party, but you want an ear worm? This is the nuclear option of ear worms. I had this song stuck in my head for over a week. At one point waking up at 3 AM with this song playing in my head over and over and I couldn't make it stop. I thought I was going to die with this song stuck in my head. This may end your marriage. For your own good, do not click this link. You have been warned.

Leonard Nimoy singing the "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins" I'm sorry, and may God have mercy on us all.

I'm one of those people who likes gold skins in games. I'm not in love with them or anything, but if I have access to one, I will most likely equip it (unless there's a better option). I don't go out of my way to preorder/whathaveyou to obtain them, though. In fact, I don't think I've had one in a game for quite some time. But, yeah. I don't think they're dumb. Or, I do, but not in the "this shouldn't exist way" and rather the "this is dumb and great" way.

SAIL is right on! :)

Oh great, this is like the time Brad talked about Dota on every cast where I have to zone out for x minutes because I have no idea wtf they are talking about. Bleh.

This show is such a fun thing.

Here's the earworm.

Tuuu du du du du du duuuuu du du.

This one still haunts me as well.

Still the best podcast.

Me and a couple of friends spent the entire 5 hour drive between stockholm and gothenburg listening to this shitnugget.

We legitimately felt like something had broken inside us afterwards.

I could not let the earworm war go without mentioning this gem. Honestly, I am surprised no one mentioned this earlier!

You chuckleheads absolutely outdid yourselves on this episode.

sail?

So who was the guest?

@mrasshat: I'm going to guess some... substances were involved and I uh... feel the need to say, please for the love of God, never do that again lol

Who turned out to be the mystery guest?

@polysorbate42: It's been talked about elsewhere and this reply is 2 years 2 late but for the record of anyone who finds this comment thread in the future, the mystery guest was Peter Stormare and he did in fact end up dropping out.

Also whenever the inevitable Beastcast clipshow appears the reveal of Jeff Bakalar's sick hotel strats MUST be included. It's around the 1:52:00 mark?

Batman > Superman.
