The Outer Channel Radio Show Episode 8001i

Show Synopsis

Opening Dialogue

Kurt and Greg open this impromptu episode by doing some Hip-Hop-apella in the style of Eminem's Lose Yourself. They then go on to discuss Hip-Hop, Beck and Moby and this leads to a discussion of Karaoke. Since it is an impromptu show and no topic was predetermined they decide to talk about the film Wolverine. They warn listeners that there will be film Spoilers and that anyone who has not yet seen the film should tune out.

Kurt and Greg discuss the film Wolverine. This becomes a discussion of the X-Men comic book series and some controversial [at least to comic book fans] decisions made by the creators of the film.

Kurt and Greg then discuss actors who become angry when they are not asked to reprise their roles in remade films especially in the case of the film Lost in Space. The discussion goes back to creative liberties taken in Super Hero films, most notably the replacement of Spiderman's web shooters with organic web production.

Technical Notes

Since this is an impromptu show it runs just a bit over an hour rather than the usual two hour program.
