Half of the episode has already been recorded. As the ShowShow crew has scattered across the country since their last entry, I’ve taken it uponst myself to record individual segments with almost all of the crew (no Alan…) and then smash them together. The first half contains a lot of horror talk between Beef and I as we gear up for Friday the 13th (2009) and recount our love of the franchise as well as our disdain for anyone who cries “artistic integrity” when talking about the remake. Tonight, Katie and I sit down to do…something. We actually have something in mind, but I wouldn’t dare spoil it here. Suffice to say that it will either be awful (like the midi episode) or wonderful (like the midi episode).
Cheers!
Miles

If we don’t start getting some voicemail, there will be no 100th show…
I know that you guys don’t want to record an episode until I make it out to Cali - but that could be a while. So please go on without me. But do include The Het. He’s better than all of us.
I had to edit the sweet god damn out of this episode, but I did it and now it clocks in at 2 hours and 15 minutes. It should be up by tomorrow morning, just in time to cut out a significant portion of your work day.
I had the chance to catch up on your movie year podcast on the flight from Phoenix. I liked it a lot - it’s quick but fun. But I missed ShowShow, because of my adoration of all things Katie.
Your review of “Baitshop” was epic. I think this is the best segment you guys have ever produced. You made me want to see this thing!
Haha! Yes! I’m glad to hear that we still have some juice after two years. And to be honest, I want to review more movies like that as often as we can. I’m going to start actively seeking out the worst shit available to make sure it happens.
I haven’t decided if I liked the Baitshop review yet. It bordered on some kind of Dadaist experiment in awful - that you inflicted on the listeners.
After two years, I’m sure you still have plenty of things to say. And from the sounds of it you’re not afraid to bust out more puns. BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, NO MIDIS.
That reminds me, when are you actually recording ep 100? I wanted to record you a legit MP3 file with the rig, but I wasn’t sure if I still have time to do it since I’m kinda booked up tonight.
While I wish that I would have been a part of the more coherent section of this episode, I have to say that I really enjoyed the Baitshop dialogue we had. In fact, those are my favorite parts of ShowShow, when there’s a back and forth as opposed to someone merely driving me insane for the sole purpose of driving me insane. I’m sure our discussion of it was 100% better than the movie itself, and if you’re looking for some true Dadaist experiments in awful, Alyssa Favorite, then let me direct you to Tyler Perry’s entire body of work. You will be pleasantly horrified.

We’re going to do a Tyler Perrython. I have decided. If it spurns more Bait Shop-like discussion, then I can’t think of another set of movies that would deserve it more.
