I don't know if it's just the bewitchment of great marketing, but the more I see of Jon Chu's'G.I. Joe: Retaliation,' the more excited I get for its release. In these two new TV spots, Roadblock (Dwayne "The…
Howdy folks, Cyrus here with the post-mortem on this year's annual LEOG Halloween bash. To no one's surprise, we were all a little drunk when our own Brian Salisbury was recording audio of us at the actual party (as is our tradition). So forgive our goofiness, and the recording quality (my bad, I forgot to set the levels...in my…
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 7, Issue 6: Fantastically Frazzled
It's been a long week for pretty much everybody, as some of us did the Fantastic Fest thing (with the crazy party stories related with full force here) and SOME of us (you know who) just getting back from their extended European vacation with even more insanity to relate. All that and tons of Co-Host too? You're damn right this is a good…
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 7, Issue 5: B-Movies... The Revenge
Yeah, yeah, I know. We did a B-Movies ep last volume. Except we didn't: Brian (pre-full time membership in the league), got incidentally sidelined by an April Fool's Joke, and the episode never really came together satisfactorily. We make up for lost time with one of our most informative episodes in awhile with a solid look at some of the…Continue
That's right, it's a very special BONUS episode of the LEOG, but this isn't the usual business. In fact, it's pretty much an excuse for Cyrus to review recent Blu-rays and DVDs, only with the help of the usual gang. Leon, Grant, Randy, Brian, and even Rod (from our friends over at Geekbombast.com) all pitch in to wax eloquent on titles running the gamut of genre and quality. If you like what you hear about any of them (and I suspect you will), go ahead and click on the…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Rebooting
Welcome to the first issue of a brand new Spill.com podcast, tentatively called, "The LEOG", for you acronym fans. We take a look at the summer TV shows, the news of the week, and the DC comics reboot of their various books. Hope you guys like…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 7, Issue 3: Sidekicks!
Every great hero has a strong, barely pubescent, side-kick behind them. No, let's not think too deeply about that, but suffice it to say, the sidekick is an under-appreciated role in the history of fiction and the League takes a look at the best of…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 7, Issue 2: Return of Fish
The prodigal son returns from his California adventure with tales of the state of animation. Naturally, we have much fun at his expense. What? We're the LEOG? What did you…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 7, Issue 1: By Crom!
Okay, so maybe we didn't get around to the monkey thing as originally planned, but give us a break: it's the first issue of a brand new volume and there was a lot to cover! Like, for instance, a new full time LEOGer is inducted in, and TWO special guests, Rick Klaw and Mark Finn, wax eloquent on Conan and the other works of Robert E Howard. Check…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 6, Issue 33: Westerns (no, really)
This time for real we saddle up and talk about some of our favorite Westerns before we tip our hats and ride off into the sunset for the last issue of Volume 6. Check…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 6, Issue 32: Scores and Soundtracks
I can't believe its taken us this long to do a show about this, so we get serious about it. Our guest, Brian Satterwhite, an honest to god film composer, fills us in our the behind the scenes stuff, and we all weigh in on our faves. Now what about you guys? Let's see you post some youtube vids in the comments of your favorite songs and…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 6, Issue 31: Westerns
This week we talk about westerns. Yup, nothing but western talk here. Need look no further than this issue to hear about westerns. We certainly wouldn't let our surprise guests get us off track. That would be unprofessional. COMING NEXT WEEK: another episode where we do not talk about…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 6, Issue 30: Captain America
But of course it's the Captain America episode. What did you expect, as naturally since the movie is out, it's what we and our friends have been talking about around the water cooler (or bottle of scotch, as the case may be). Check…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 6, Issue 28: The Unseasonal 'Blue' Episode
It may not be Xmas, but we're getting blue anyway (considerably more so than usual). This is about as X as we get, so enjoy as we talk about some of our favorite off-color movies and TV shows and what's this? A special guest from an older LEOG line-up you haven't heard from in quite some time? No spoilers here, just click it and…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 6, Issue 27: Cool Vehicles
As awkward sounding as the title of this week's episode is, the discussion certainly isn't, as we get into the coolest cars and such-like that we've seen in movies, tv, etc. Plus, LEOG regular guests Alan Porter and Brian Salisbury show up to keep the stew fresh. Check…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 6, Issue 26: Hung-Over
Spill dot Con is over and the LEOG crew had such a good time, we might need an entire week just to recuperate. Stories are told, members are referenced, and the healing process begins. But that's not all! We've also got guest Joe Parsons from Master Pancake Theater and Stagcomedy.com who shoots the shit with us, and hell, why not an extra of the entire…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 6, Issue 25: Comics Shake-up!
Fair warning: it's like old times as the LEOG gets into a discussion about the DC comics reboot and brings our old buddy and comic writer Bill Williams into the fray. Check…Continue
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 6, Issue 23: Mutants
Okay, well, mainly the X-Men, because now that the entire League has seen "X-Men: First Class", they were chomping at the bit to talk about it. We get into the best and worst runs and characters of the comics as well, and oh, who is that? It's our old friend Brandon from Austin Books and Comics to go head to head with Randy in the comic book corner. Check…Continue
超平凡紳士連盟 : THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Japan
This week we go way off book as our far-flung member Nakato answers some questions all the way from Japan about his home country and their culture, while the LEOG stateside make dick jokes. Check it...
And as a special bonus, since we didn't get to give our…
THE LEAGUE OF EXTREMELY ORDINARY GENTLEMEN: Volume 6, Issue 21: Fighting Films
Despite the general tendency of the league to be more lovers than fighters, we're all fans of films where folks throw down. Adding their two cents to the proceedings are two local martial arts teachers: Richard Calione who is also a stuntman, and Janell Smith who is a stunt coordinator and film producer. Check…Continue
