Old Guys Who Love Things

LISTEN This is it. The Old Guys season finale has arrived. Let us tell you a story about the recent weekend where we hit the road with our friends and geeked out completely. Tangents galore! Mullets! OG Shawn lets it get dirty. OG Eric accidentally buys a freaking buttload of comics. Second Life and how porn pushes technology forward. Mullets!! What is our favorite episode of the podcast so far? Does Eric like Big-Mouth Billy Bass? Mullets! So much ground is covered. (Oh! Check out our new Spotify playlist.) We'll be back with new episodes on September 12! See you then!

LISTEN (part 2 of 2). The OGs conclude their discussion of travel and their love of it. Hear about Shawn's evolution from a camper to beach bum. Eric sprays his love all over New Mexico and London. Paris? Not so much. They find out how big the gap is in their travel philosophies. Then they both come together in their love of NOT having their vacations mapped out in advance by someone. Stoke the campfire, grab a drink, put your feet up, mind the gap and enjoy. #bucknakeddooley Join the conversation (and see our artifact album) on our Facebook: facebook.com/oldguyswholovethings and talk to us via email: oldguyswholovethings@gmail.com OLD GUYS WATCH CLUB (YouTube playlist): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_lfD1EhrKokbJiiyG9mYVI8gvBslswEv Find Shawn online: http://www.gruegallery.com  and  https://www.shawndooleyart.com/ Find Eric online:  http://www.epschwartz.com

LISTEN (Part 1 of 2) The Old Guys tuck their geeky away for a bit and discuss their love of travel. Find out how Old Guy Shawn loves to spend his Thanksgivings. Hear about Barry the Sommelier Who Won't Go Away. Shudder in fear at tales of cross country trips in death vessels and tiny Volkswagons. Stare in amazement as the boys from Illinois try to think of famous cities in Florida.

LISTEN Here it is. We held back as long as we could. Eric's life-long obsession with this British institution spills out of this episode like the anti-matter monster on Zeta Minor in "Planet of Evil" from the 13th season. Eric has a couple complete geek-outs/melt-downs... Geekdowns? Meltouts? Whatever. And OF COURSE, he didn't record an acoustic version of the Who theme for this episode. That would be crazy.  Plus Shawn admits to breaking bad during his retail days just to watch the good Doctor. Facts and tidbits about Doctor Who abound and some tidbits about the Old Guys that they have never had a safe space to admit before.

LISTEN (Part 2 of 2) As the Old Guys crossover the stargate into the sci-fi/fantasy TV of the 90s, the influence of TWIN PEAKS and STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION is felt. Quirky, weird small towns and voyaging ensemble casts abound. Soon, however, a laconic, paranoid FBI agent and his skeptic partner would change the 90s TV landscape and The Old Guys forever. Find out about the time Kevin Sorbo's HERCULES made Eric kiss a guy (while filling in for Shawn on stage). Discover the theme song these Old Guys LOATHE. It's a bumper episode filled with heroes, villains, and little green men.

LISTEN (Part 1 of 2) Like fools, The Old Guys believed they could do 80s and 90s sci-fi/fantasy T.V. in one episode! HAHAHAHA! The hubris. Find out which Old Guy liked Battlestar Galactica and which one was the Buck Rogers guy. Swim in an ocean of nostalgia as images of Manimal, Max Headroom, Auto-man and The Misfits of Science float by. Then shrink in terror at the arrival of the visitors from V and Vicky from Small Wonder. #savemork Join the conversation (and see our artifact album) on our Facebook: facebook.com/oldguyswholovethings and talk to us via email: oldguyswholovethings@gmail.com OLD GUYS WATCH CLUB (YouTube playlist): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_lfD1EhrKokbJiiyG9mYVI8gvBslswEv Find Shawn online: http://www.gruegallery.com  and  https://www.shawndooleyart.com/ Find Eric online:  http://www.epschwartz.com

LISTEN Not all things that these Old Guys love deserve a full episode. Sometimes just a dollop of love is all that's needed. In this episode the O.G.s look at some of their smaller loves from practical make-up effects to xeroxed underground magazines (or Zines). Hear them discuss the childhood trauma of "The Red Balloon" and an even darker view of Eric begins to emerge from his final "Morsel" and his 20-second hate. This guy has hang-ups. Everything dies, kids.

LISTEN Into every generation, a podcast is born: one podcast in all the world, a chosen one. The Old Guys get "shiny" in this episode and aim to misbehave as they discuss their mutual love of Joss Whedon and his work. From Buffy the Vampire Slayer to Firefly to Cabin in the Woods to Avengers, the Old Guys have a lot of love to go around. It's a cracker of an episode packed with tons of Wonderflonium. About 10 minutes in it will be clear which Old Guy is the most obsessed with "Josh Wheaton".
