Have You Heard About...?















Rumor has it, that if you play an episode of Zombie vs Shark backwards, then you will hear clues to the location of the super duper secret society of the Illuminati! But one would have to listen to every single episode, starting with Robotic Aerosmith and then going back to episode one!
But tuning in today will give you insight into some of the more persistent urban legends based in pop culture. What is that in the background of Wizard of Oz? Who formed the band Wings? What really happened to 'Mikey' from the Life cereal commercials? Listen, learn, delve into the mysteries...seek out strange message boards in the far off reaches of the internet! You too can become a crazed, conspiracy theorist! But then come back next week for another episode of ZvS.

Two Girls With Green Eyes!


Get ready to shake the pillars of heaven with the gang's Big Trouble in Little China commentary! Fellow podcaster and artist, Junior Bruce, returns to Plan B Studios to join in the fun of this film. A classic 80's flick with all the 80's bells and whistles!
And remember...When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail."

Some Things Just Fit Together











Peanut Butter and Jelly.
Tequila and Lime.
Taco Bell and Regret.
Some things just go better together. This is most notable when a perfect harmony is struck. Yes Simon "can" be without Garfunkel, but honestly who wants a Jelly Sandwich?
Joe and Jaye strike their own harmony in this, the latest very special music episode of Zombie vs Shark. The boys discuss perfect duets, those voices in those songs that just fit well together (and in some cases eerily too well). At one point the fellas realize they need to join a support group for their love of a certain uber-cheesy duet. But hey, that is what they are.

Sit back, relax and put in DiscThree, Track Seven!

Oh, THAT Actor Is In This Movie, I'll See It

Scene from JFK
Scene from True Romance











flaw·less [flaw-lis]
adjective
1. having no defects or faults, especially none that diminish the value of something.

This is the word the guys use to describe the quality of work for a certain few actors. In the latest offering from Zombie vs Shark, Doesn't Abbreviate Well, the gang reveals some of their 'flawless' actors. Actors that, in the minds of the guys, have provided some of the highest quality of acting time and again; regardless of the quality or success of the film itself.
No, none of these actors have avoided being in a bad film or two, but that is part of why they get mentioned in this episode. Because they show up and give their best performance, regardless of everyone around them. These actors have also reached high successes, earned praise and won awards. There are even some mentioned that listeners may never even heard of or only recognize by face.
Regardless of how one might know these actors, they are always a joy to watch. So sit back and tune in to the show that is always a joy to listen to!

Scene from Hook
Scene from Shadow of the Vampire
