Top 5 Video Game Soundtracks
Friday Mar 01, 2024
Friday Mar 01, 2024
Think back on some of the most iconic moments in movie history. Think about the exact moment when the Avengers assembled for the first time in New York City. Think about when Sam and Frodo were lying on the side of Mount Doom near the brink of death, so close to finishing their quest. The score has an unquantifiable impact on the scene; it elevates, depresses, excites, or frightens us. Musical scores and soundtracks when done really well transform a great story into a masterpiece. It’s also true with video games, which is something not a lot of people realize. The industry is bigger than ever, but gamers are still a fraction of the population compared to moviegoers, so they can be forgiven for not realizing that some of the greatest stories and musical scores are found in video games, whether we’re talking just a specific song or the whole damned album. Today we’re talking about our Top 5 Video Game Soundtracks. To enhance the discussion we didn’t share our lists with each other and by no means are we experts in this or any other category. We are just a few gamers who like to discuss nonsense.

Top 5 Useful Gifts
Friday Feb 02, 2024
Friday Feb 02, 2024
Who doesn’t love to receive gifts? Sure, we can pretend to be humble and tell people “I don’t need anything” when it’s your birthday, but a part of you cries a little on the inside. Be honest. But because we are all such nice people, we don’t wanna hurt someone’s feelings if they get us a letter opener or an ear wax cleaning kit as our Christmas presents. So what do you get someone that is guaranteed to satisfy them no matter what? Today we will be discussing our Top 5 Useful Gifts. We didn’t share our lists with each other and by no means are we experts in this or any other category. We are just a few dudes who like to discuss nonsense.

Top 5 Wishes
Sunday Jan 28, 2024
Sunday Jan 28, 2024
Everyone knows the story of Aladdin. Everyone’s familiar with the concept of Genie’s and their wish-granting powers and they’ve considered what they would do if they had a genie. Today we’re going to talk about our top 5 genie wishes. That’s right, we’re gonna shed off the classic 3 wish limitation and go with 5 wishes because this is after all the Top 5 Podcast. We’re each gonna pick 5 wishes and standard rules apply: you can’t wish for someone’s death, you can’t make someone fall in love, and you can’t wish to bring Harambe back from death. Oh and also you can’t ask for more wishes, you’re already getting five. We’ll likely have some crossover but today for the sake of conversation we’re doing the old Jackass Genie Trope. Think of the rules of Bedazzled. You remember that movie, right? Brendan Fraser makes all these deals with the Devil played by Elizabeth Hurley who gives him what he wants, but there’s always a huge catch that he didn’t consider which serves as the ultimate reminder “be careful what you wish for—you just might get it!” In other words one person’s going to say their wish and the other two are going to shit all over it. We didn’t share our lists with each other and by no means are we experts in this or any other category. We are just a few dudes who like to discuss nonsense.

Saturday Dec 30, 2023
Speaking of Christmas and the holiday season, I can’t help but notice that life’s mostly a bunch of events and mini-events and milestones that are really just dots on your timeline. The truth is a lot of our lives is just spent marking the time, killing it until we have to do the next thing. Or maybe we’re trying to make a mundane task fly by as we entertain ourselves with something else. Today we’re talking about our Top 5 Time Killers. To enhance our discussion we did not share our lists with each other, and by no means are we experts in this or any other category. We are just a few dudes who like to discuss nonsense.

Top 5 Comedy Specials
Thursday Dec 07, 2023
Thursday Dec 07, 2023
It’s a tough world out there with ups and downs and sometimes we just need to have a laugh and not have to think about how the whole world is burning around us. A little over 100 episodes ago we did our top 5 Stand up Comics but sadly Eric had not joined the show yet. We could have gone with another top 5 stand ups but I don't think we are at the point where we need to be doing sequels just yet (except for beer of course) so I thought lets do something in the same vein but not the same.Today We are discussing our Top 5 Comedy Specials. We are by no means experts in said category and we did not share our lists beforehand. We are just a few jerks that want laugh at a man saying “Get R Done”

Top 5 Common Myths
Friday Nov 24, 2023
Friday Nov 24, 2023
Life is pretty hard. If we aren’t trying to avoid the next global pandemic, we are worrying about ways to cut out lattes and avocado toast in order to purchase a home in this historical housing market. On top of all of that, we have been lied to our whole lives! Sitting too close to the TV makes you go blind, alligators live in the sewers of NYC, if you’re an undercover cop you have to tell me, and breakfast is the most important meal of the day. These are the facts that our parents instilled upon us from adolescence that shaped who we are today. But they were incorrect. Through time and science we have seen far too many common misconceptions proven false. So we are here to set the record straight. We are discussing our Top 5 Common Myths. We are by no means experts in said category and we did not share our lists beforehand. We are just a few bozo’s who are gullible as hell.

Top 5 Sci-Fi Settings
Friday Nov 17, 2023
Friday Nov 17, 2023
Science Fiction means so many things all at once. It is a catalyst for creativity and inquiry, and through its creation of alternate realities, it serves as a mirror to reflect where we are today. The setting is itself a main character in any Sci-Fi story as it is the all-important binding element that makes the story possible. A Sci-Fi show set a few centuries in the future would undoubtedly have to project our path forward and explain how we got to that point, whether it’s a positive view of the future, or a totally dystopian one. Or perhaps you like a book with a retro-futuristic setting with an alternative history like Steampunk blending the Victorian Age with fantastic clockwork machines. Or it could depart from anything remotely related to realism in its embrace of science-wizardry. Today we are discussing our Top 5 Sci-Fi Settings. To enhance our discussion, we didn’t share our lists with each other and by no means are we experts in this or any other category. We are just a few dudes who like to discuss nonsense.
