Please fill out our listener survey!
It will only take five minutes or so and would help us get to know you. You'll be rewarded in all kinds of self-esteem, beauty and class. Your eyes will be brighter, your hair shinier, your teeth whiter, your breath fresher, you'll whistle a happy tune, you'll have that certain something...oh, probably not. But we'll love you anyway!

The show's a little late because we didn't get it recorded last night due to work issues. We'll get it recorded tonight and hopefully it will be up Saturday sometime.

I am FINALLY getting a new computer early next week and that should help with the turnaround speed (fan noise too!). So yeah.

Sean is absent for the recording of this show.

First I play voicemail from Eyepatch Burney and Naomi, castmates of ours from Lambda Psi Phi. They do an Xmen fantasy cast for us.

Then I read email from Ducky, who came up with her own Firefly/Serenity fantasy cast.

I say hello to various friends of the show.

Next is the Firefly/Serenity fantasy cast Sean and Laura did with Les from  The Signal podcast, which won the 2006 People's Choice Podcast Awards for "Best Produced" and "Movies and Films." They were also nominated for Parsec Awards for "Best Fan Podcast" and "Best Audio Production." We are so-o-o-o-o-o out of their league.

To that end, I apologize for the sound quality. We thought we had a quiet room and as the recording went on, people came into the room. This took a long time to edit down the background noise, which is why this show is so late. Ah well, we recorded at last weekend's excellent Podcamp Atlanta and everyone was excitedly talking about their shows so we can't be too upset. I hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording this, and we hope to do some other project with Les in the future.

We want to remind you about the upcoming Rocky conventions: We Are Rocky--Rockypalooza in Huntington, WV on May 11 & 12 and Midnight Insanity Pirates of Transylvania Con in Long Beach, CA on July 26-29. Also, we are going to be at the Podcamp Atlanta Unconference this weekend, March 16-17.

Brian from 2 Drunks and a Podcast and Andy from Lips Down on Dixie call with fantasy casts requests. We also have gotten a lot of email from our listeners. Rachel gave us a Simpsons fantasy cast she herself made up. Ducky told us that the girl M&M is blue, not green.

In Tennessee back in the '70s, if you wore green on Thursday, it meant you were gay. We discuss other indicators we also used to hear about. Why we went off on this topic, I have no idea.

Rachel gave us a suggested topic: Trixies and what is their purpose--Trixies as strippers or as candy girls. We discuss this a very very long time. We also discuss chubby chasers. We get way off-topic here. Sean maintains that with everything Rocky, you have to consider the audience.

Our fantasy cast is Lord of the Rings. Thanks Andy!

Our terrible movie of the week is House of the Dead.

Laura thinks we should review porn but Sean thinks horror is funnier. However, Laura saw a clip of disturbing amputee porn once that was quite memorable.

Enjoy the show!

We get a call from Brian of 2 Drunks and a Podcast.

Sean tells the dick dust story.

Rachel writes to tell us to do a fantasy cast with The Simpsons. We can't remember if we already have done this but while we are researching, we challenge our listeners to come up with Simpsons fantasy cast. Listeners though should cast this with non-family members--no Bart, no Lisa, no Maggie, Marge or Homer, no Grandfather or Marge's sister, no pets. Sean would like for this to be cast with characters voiced by Phil Hartman.

Our topic for tonight is the danger of being in a relationship with somebody else when you are both on cast.

Our fantasy cast for tonight is M&Ms.

Our cult movie review is Shaolin Soccer! Pow! We stupidly call it Japanese, when it is actually Chinese. We also talk about a lot of other parody kung fu movies.

If you are in Atlanta and are interested in podcasting, be sure to check out Podcamp Atlanta which is happening March 16-18 at Emory University.

The date for the Midnight Insanity MI Booty Pirate Con is changing to a week later, July 26-29. They apologize for this but it can't be helped.

There is a Rocky Horror Picture Show showing in Second Life, 12PM SLT at The Pirate Cinema in Stockholm Sweden at the Second Life location The Office (237.239.61). I have no idea what this means--I have only tried using Second Life once and gave up because my computer is a dinosaur.

A fellow podcaster has suffered a major tragedy. Irene McGee from the podcast No One's Listening, was burned out of her apartment in San Francisco in mid-February. She lost everything she owned: books, clothes, mementos, photos, etc., and one of her cats died in the fire and the other was severely burned. Some of her friends and partners have set up a Paypal account for people who want to help her out.

Our topic for tonight is: Why does Rocky Horror work as a cult movie when so many have failed? Some cult movies that supposedly are Rocky-killers that we talk about are Shock Treatment, Sound of Music, Rock N Roll High School, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2, Rent, Snakes on a Plane, Team America, Phantom of the Opera. So there's our cult movie review as well!

Today on the way to work, Laura was listening to NPR and heard that The Cat in the Hat is 50 years old--eureka! So tonight's fantasy cast is Dr. Seuss characters.
