Patreon Preview – Why You So Fucked Up?

Here’s the full description of the Patreon show:

This week on the bonus show, Bix and Breen dive into the first of two parts(!) of their discussion of 1983 horror classic “Sleepaway Camp.” This one keeps going until we can no longer contain ourselves and have to talk about the twist ending and its implications. The next episode will pick up from there. Here, we discuss the movie in general, some of the most memorable scenes, the craziest dialogue, the weird specificity of, well, everything, and much more!

Ep. #4 – Now It’s A Color TV

This week on Two Scoops, Bix and Breen celebrate Halloween through the prism of the one and only Tim Curry. From It to his finest TV guest spots, it’s all here. Plus there’s plenty of talk about childhood fears and Home Improvement for some reason.

Ep. #3 – Coke Crazy Duran Duran

Two Scoops is back with an all-Duran Duran, all the time episode. Bix and Breen talk about how they became Duran Duran fans, the ways the bands is mischaracterized by the media and people who haven’t tried listening to their music, why “The Chauffeur” is THE Duran Duran song, and more. Also: Jordan’s friend Karen Mills joins the show to talk about the Duran Duran logo stenciled on her walk-in closet wall throughout her childhood.

Ep. #2 – Is This Because I’m A Lesbian?

Jordan Breen and David Bixenspan are back with another edition of Two Scoops, this time dealing with everything Law & Order (plus a little generic law and order):

Bix introduces Breen to the wonder of “I See O.J.,” the greatest prank call in the history of television.
Every single junior/second chair ADA on the original “Law & Order” is ranked in ridiculous detail. You get two guesses as to who came in last.
Breen reads complaints to the FCC about “Law & Order: SVU.”
We close with a preview of next week after looking into the listening suggestion that is the Jerry Orbach memorial car Kickstarter.

Yes, we went long again. We’ll figure it out.

Ep. #1 – Zane Leopard

Welcome to the first episode of Two Scoops, a new podcast from Jordan Breen and David Bixenspan where we dive into…whatever we would talk about anyway (usually old and weird media) if we weren’t recording anything. In the debut show:

We explain our mission statement via our muse, American Gladiators great Wesley “Two Scoops” Berry.
The many, many, layers of martial artist/psychic/convicted child molester James Hydrick (that guy who James Randi exposed as not being telekinetic) are examined.
Possibly the most soul crushingly meta storyline in television history is recapped.

This is the mission statement show, so they won’t all be this long or weird, but we hope you enjoy it.
