Manny, Andres, and Alexi take some extra time to reunite after a few months away! They chat about Rockband/Guitar Hero, apartment mischief, game shows, and various live concerts/festivals. After they finish talking about the same old stuff they always do, they dive into Manny's recommendation: learning about philosophy. We each found different philosophers using various media and sources. The following philosophers were discussed: - Marcus Aurelius (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_Aurelius) - Friedrich Nietzsche (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedrich_Nietzsche) - Albert Camus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Camus) - Jean-Paul Sartre (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Paul_Sartre) - Harry G.

Manny, Alexi, and Andres bury the lead that they're recording in person again with everyone home for the holidays. Instead, they talk about Windows 10 and 11, and Christmas before discussing Manny's recommendation: Blood on the Tracks (also translated as A Trail of Blood, and romanized as Chi no Wadachi) by author Shuzo Oshimi.

We managed to think far enough in the future ahead to bring you this: an episode based on a timely holiday (despite opening the episode with a not-so-timely discussion on Jackass Forever, and the Jackass franchise). We didn't exactly lean into anything real joke-y, but we did decide to do a bizzarro version of the podcast where we flip the concept on it's head and we each brought one piece of media that we don't like to the table to discuss. Alexi brought Denis Villeneuve's Dune (2021) to discuss. Manny brought Nickelback's debut album "Curb." Andres brought the anime movie Love Live: The School Idol Movie. Episode recorded: February 12, 2022 Watch Dune on HBO Max: https://www.hbomax.com/feature/urn:hbo:feature:GYUjdLgBiJp5otAEAAAAJ Listen to Curb wherever you stream/buy music Watch Love Live: The School Idol Movie on Funimation with a premium account, or whever you rent digital movies: https://www.funimation.com/v/love-live-school-idol-project-2nd-season/love-live-the-school-idol-movie

Alexi, Manny and Andres talk about voice acting and celebrities in animated movies before talking about Andres' recommendation: The Simpsons. Knowing that it's pretty daunting to jump into a 33 season ongoing show, even if the best seasons happened 15-20 years ago, Andres recommended some specific episodes from seasons 2-8 as a jumping in point. They are as follows: - S2, Episode 19: Lisa's Substitute; - S3, Episode 1: Stark Raving Dad (Not on streaming); - S4, Episode 12: Marge vs. The Monorail; - S5, Episode 2: Cape Feare; - S6, Episode 13: ...And Maggie Makes Three; - S7, Episode 21: 22 Short Films About Springfield - S8, Episode 14: The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show; - (Bonus that we all watched) S6, Episode 24: Lemon of Troy Episode Recorded: November 13, 2021 Show Notes: sussedpod.tumblr.com Watch the full series (minus the airing season) on Disney+: https://www.disneyplus.com/franchise/the-simpsons (Find us on social media @sussedpod for help finding Stark Raving Dad) sussedpod.com

Andres, Alexi, and Manny talk about new and strange foods, family, live shows, and The Satanic Temple (not a sponsor) before jumping into Manny's recommendation for the week: the discography and history of Fall Out Boy. The four albums we discuss in-depth are Take This to Your Grave, From Under the Cork Tree, Infinity on High, and Save Rock and Roll. We also dissect the band's professional history, from their early Chicago beginnings to their latest album Mania.
