Outdated References 111: Disco, Hawk, & Spider-Men


This week we quickly talk about Star Trek Discovery and how making a mini DMA was probably not the greatest idea during an evacuation, then we geek out about Hawkeye and the big reveal of the Kingpin!? Mainly, this week Russ and I go on about our excitement of Spider-Man No Way Home. Seriously, that was a fantastic film that brought on involuntary smiling. Everyone knows, we hate to be happy.

Outdated References 110: Purple Menace


Nathan came back from Puerto Rico and talks about his favorite things: Food & Lizards. We keep the beginning chat short because we have 4 episodes to talk about, Star Trek Discovery Episode 3 “Choose to Live” & Episode 4 “All is Possible,” then we move on to Hawkeye Episode 3 “Echoes” 7 Episode 4 “Partners, Am I Right?” Then I mentioned the comic books purple theory and learned that Grape Ape is the most villainous villain of all villainy.

Outdated References 109: Terror Kobayashi Heroes

 


Two man Show with Russ and Nathan with Post Thanksgiving chatter. Eventually Adam joins us and we give our opinions about the new live action Cowboy Bebop show. Then we jump right into Star Trek Prodigy Episode 5: Terror Firma discussion, then we move onto Star Trek Discovery: Episode 1: Kobayashi Maru & Episode 2: Anomaly. As a palette cleanser, we shoot our way into the new Hawkeye series with Episode 1: Never Meet Your Heroes & Episode 2: Hide and Seek.

Outdated References 108: Dreamcatcher


Russ, Coral and Nathan are here doing a short episode this week. We do a quick Bioware love chat, talk about Disney Plus Day, & Russ didn’t like the 90s X-Men cartoon?! WTF?!

Outdated References 106: Lost & Found


Coral, Adam, and I casually chat about watching tv in subtitles and the weird ability to pick up inflections in the dialog even though we don’t speak the language and picking up on Spanish through osmosis. Also movie & TV recommendations: James Bond: No Time to Die, Dune, Tron Uprising, & What We Do in the Shadows. Actually, Adam sat us down and explained WTF Dune is all about.

Eventually we dive into Star Trek Prodigy: Ep 1 & 2: Lost & Found. Did we like the new characters? Is it too kiddie? What about the Protostar? Does Dal suck? Find out by listening to this week's episode of Outdated References Podcast.

Bonus: Adam as "American" Nandor from "What We Do in the Shadows."

Outdated References 105: The Watcher, Three Ships & Horny Whales


“Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans”

– John Lennon."

This is so true. Besides all of our usual shenanigans, we had a friend pass away and recently, my wife's Dad also passed away. So as the posting of this episode, I am in Puerto Rico with my Wife, Coral and the rest of my in-laws remembering lost love ones and celebrating life. So apologies for the sporadic releases, we will try our best to stay inconsistently consistent. That being said, we did take a week off so we will be chatting about the finales of What If and Lower Decks. 

This week, Adam, Russ, Coral and I discuss Adam playing Castlevania Advance collection (Circle of the Moon) & Neo-Geo Pocket Collection. Nathan got Xenocrisis for the Neo-Geo & Adam immediately starts to bust my balls for buying a MD port. Oh and on Nintendo news, their new online upgrade is kind of BS. We have a short Reservation Dogs discussion. Seriously, check that show out, it's really good. Of course we all add in our 2 cents about the Ted Lasso finale. 

The main topic os discussion is "What If... the Watcher Broke His Oath?," "Star Trek Lower Decks: Wej Duj (Three Ships)," & "Star Trek Lower Decks: First First Contact." 

Thank you for sticking with us, we really do appreciate the clicks, not because we make any money off of this, but it inspires us to know that someone out there actually listens to this podcast and that's a little weird but totally awesome.

Outdated References 104: Ultron, Anime Jedi & Excretus



Russ, Adam, Coral and I recorded on Mean Girls Day!  Adam is in town and we talk about our time going to Game Nest and playing arcade boards at my place, and Coral’s Classic Cooking Corner.  

We try to decipher the episode What If..Ultron Won? Why do all the gems work in between realities? How strong is Uatu?  Also, Star Wars: Visions dropped and we discussed our favorite shorts. I will defend umbrella lightsabers, because that is stupid cool. But my favorite show this week is Star Trek: Lower Decks: I, Excretus. OMG, this episode was so funny. 

–Nathan

Outdated References 103: Bro Thor & Evil SuperComputers

 


This week, Coral, Russ, Adam and I have a short chat about Ted Lasso, Nathan’s pro tip about buying a suit, and Adam mesmerized us with his Just Kidding Rowling impression.  We then go out on a tangent on accents and why do old people absolutely love procedurals? 

As the main topic we discuss “What If...Thor was an only Child?” &  the return of Jeffrey Combs in “Star Trek Lower Decks: Where Pleasant Fountains Lie.”

--Nathan 

Friday, November 26, 2021

Outdated References 102: Vampires, Killmonger & Janeway

This week Russ, Adam, Coral, and Nathan chat about our Movie of the Month: Vampire Hunter D, What If... Killmonger Rescued Tony Stark, and Lower Decks: The Spy Humongous. We also chat about voice actors, Disney screwing over Scarlett Johansson, the next Spiderman Movie, and more randomness.

Our NEXT Movie movie is Adam's pick: Jet Li's Hero. It should be fun. 

--Nathan

Outdated References 101 Supplemental: Shang Chi


Trying something new for this episode. Since our discussion was longer than the actual episode 101, it was decided to split the show into two parts. Let us know if you prefer the split episodes format or would rather just enjoy one long episode. 

Russ and I talk about our opinions about Marvel’s newest Martial Arts Film, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and geek out on seeing old faces and just gushing in general about this film.

Outdated References 101: What If... Zombies & Lower Decks Dooplers

Then we discuss the latest episode of What If..Zombies and Paul Rudd’s detached head. Then we celebrate Richard Kind and his performances in Star Trek Lower Decks: An Embarrassment of Dooplers.  

(We are also going to release a separate episode of just Shang Chi talk, keep your ears open for that episode.)

Outdated References 98: What If... Kayshon, His Eyes Open


Holy Cow Everyone, I've let myself get overwhelmed with work and play. I've fallen way behind and I'm trying to dig myself out of this backlog hell. So here is episode 98. For some reason we talk about episode 2 of What If...T'Challa Became a Star-Lord? but we skipped the discussion of episode 1 of Lower Decks and instead discussed Star Trek Lower Decks Episode 2: Kayshon, His Eyes Open. So I'm confused. Did I already post the episode about Ransom becoming a God? I don't know. I'm all confused. We also talk more about season three of Transformers. So yeah...

My 10 Years Neo Geo Big Red Restoration

 


Back in 2007, I purchased arcade cabinet that was a carcass of one of my favorite arcade machines, a Neo-Geo MVS 4 Slot. All the unique components that made it a Neo-Geo was ripped out and was converted into one of my most loathed on-rail shooters, CarnEvil. Seriously, I really do hate CarnEvil and seeing that game inside a Big Red frame made me want to restore this cabinet into is former glory. So, I paid $200 for a machine that had some much potential in becoming one of and did my best to make this into one of my most desired machines.

I dragged this machine into my garage and started my restoration. I started with removing the marquee and the control panel overlay. Sadly, I had to throw the original panel cover away because I wanted to replace it with a new Neo-Geo MVS overlay. I then removed all the light gun cabling and proceeded to fill in the holes with bondo. I pulled out the coin mech, only to literally throw it away on accident during one of my many moves. You see, I had this cab half-finished but for a good chick of time, it sat inside a storage unit because I did not have the space to work on it and during one of my many moves between apartments, the coin door was placed in a pile of scrap that got tossed out with the trash. So yeah, freaking awesome.
