S1 E3: Second Wave. It's Halloween and we're getting real spooky with it. Join us for an episode of cult-like surfboard burnings, overdone villain acting, bad movies, and more of our general nonsense. Michael gets a better mic next week! Morgan also learns not to leave a fan on during recording later in the show's run.

Assorted Show Notes:

@05:40 Manos Hands Of Felt.

@09:49 The trailer for Neil Breen's "Double Down".

@24:36 Mostly the "Dead Person Impersonation" trope. Not exactly the same thing as the episode but it is used similarly to remove power from your "protagonist" in a way that makes you, the viewer, feel powerless to help them.

@46:15 A reference to the Reply All episode "The Case Of The Missing Hit" in which a man tries to find a song that has been stuck in his head for years, going as far as recreating it from memory.

@46:35 Referencing the Central Park musical number (time stamped for the scene from full film) from Creating Rem Lezar which is 1/3 Doo-Wop, 1/3 rap, and 1/3 ballad over violin.

@49:25 The Slap is an 8 episode mini-series based off an Australian series of the same name. It details the fall-out of a group of friends after one of them, at a party, slaps someone else's misbehaving child. The American version and Australian version are mostly the same, besides the fact that Australian television has far greater amounts of nudity.

@59:45 Here is an example of the Wall Of Death from an Exodus show.
