Holden talks us through that once beloved tradition that was born of both cinema and corporate synergy: The summer movie song. Whether it was Seal grinding on a Bat Signal, Kenny Loggins singing about jet planes, or a montage of Mr. T set to a pulse pounding track about tiger eyes, the summer movie song was everywhere...until it just wasn't anymore. What exactly happened and more importantly what are our cohosts going to pick as their three favorite summer movie songs of all time (from the early 80s to the early 2000s honestly). And please let us know your favorite because unlike Aerosmith, we probably did miss a thing.

Face front true believers and angry accusers!!! It's the trial of the century where we argue about that guy that was almost alive for a century: Stan Lee. Is this man also this monster we've made him out to be? That passionate prosecutor Mike Lawrence takes on diligent defense dork Jake Young while Holden (and you listeners) reach a verdict. Is Stan Lee the astonishing architect of a beloved universe or is he merely the housekeeper of ideas that stole a bunch of stuff when no one was looking?

As Jake was starting to talk about the collectors market for video games last episode Mike interrupted (productively for once) to suggest the world of collecting deserved it's own episode. So here it is! Jake talks the video game collecting boom that started a few years ago and the corruption that followed, Holden talks about the insane rise of Pokémon fever and Magic cards, and Mike has some articulated points on collecting action figures and comic books and we all ask "Is this stuff as fun once you're doing it for money"? The answer will not surprise you!
