The Dorksmen

Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ear... First and foremost, The guys behind The Dorksmen would like to thank each and everyone of you for your continued support over the years. Through 140 episodes, many live streams and game nights, you, the listener, the friend, the fan, have meant so much to us. Whether this is your first episode or your 140th, thank you. With that, I have to say that this is where The Dorksmen take a pause. This is not goodbye, this is just see you soon. With the world opening back up, we've decided to take a step back. You'll likely hear from us soon, but not often. Please enjoy this final episode for now where we just catch up, crack jokes and do what we do best, entertain you. Thank you.

Episode 139 - Revenge of the New Hope: A Star Wars Podcast Happy Revenge of the 5th (or 6th, depending on when you listen). Brother Gary joins us as we talk about all things "Space Conflict," or as you know. it, Star Wars. What do we like? Don't Like? want to see in the future (or from the past)? Guess you'll just have to listen...

We finally did it, we answer the age old question of how many Newland brother's it takes standing shoulder on shoulder to equal the height of Joey! Tune in this week for the answer to that riveting question and more. Alright, that's not all we talk about this week... although if you know us by now you know that we could actually make that episode work. This week the Dorks sit down and chop it up about upcoming summer movies. We touch on ones we're looking forward to and of course manage to divert so far off topic and onto another tangent you are left questioning why we even bother with an episode theme each week. Enjoy!

We have it all, on the Dorksmen... at least we do if you are a "Weird Al" Yankovic fan! This week, super fan Penn State Phil joins us as we talk all things Alfred. Everything from the beginning of his career to where we are 5 decades later! So Just "Eat It" and enjoy (and don't make me repeat it)!

Like a swift five fingers to the face out of nowhere, here we are dropping an episode on a Thursday. That's right folks, we're changing it up on you! The ol' razzle dazzle if you may. We've decided to swap things up and keep things fresh and episodes are now being recorded Wednesday and will be live Thursday! For this inaugural episode, we decided to throw it back and have some actual structure to the episode. We dive into a few of our classic categories and talk about what we've been watching, playing, and all in all try to keep up with all the madness that happens at a break neck speed around us. The good news? We don't go off topic for once... The bad news? well you'll just have to listen and find out.

We are joined this week by very special guest, Jason! aka Mr Bearly, the man behind Bearly Available! This week we sit down to talk all things Master of The Universe. From the childhood cartoons and toys, to the 1987 movie that shall not be named, all the way up until the new cartoon series' and a potential live-action movie, we talk about it all. We share some heartbreaking stories of what happened to our toys past and much more. Also, this upcoming week is Bearly Available's 4th birthday! Not Jason's 4th birthday... as Clint thought... but the 4 year celebration of Bearly. So make sure to say happy birthday and show some love.

Matt Groening once said, "Keep your exceptions tiny you'll go through life so whiney..." And that applies to this episode. Luckily, Larry from the STS Guys is here to add a little pizzazz to the episode! We share our Mount Rushmore of Matt Groening characters, talk about his shows, go off on a few tangents, and answer some questions! As they have the internet on the computer now, give us a listen, won't you?

This week, we are vengeance... or at least Joey likes to think he is regarding Nate's absence. Lucky for all of us, Batman fan man Andrew NewBeardland from the Toy Rewind Podcast joins us to talk all things about the Masked Viganty, specifically of the new Warner Bros. movie. **SPOLIER WARNING*** We talk about our favorite characters, actors, what we liked, didn't like, what the future holds... basically everything. Plus, we answer some listener questions that have nothing to do with the Caped Crusader.

We are back! Sorta... we're minus Clint this week but we're plus a Ferd so we definitely are coming out on top! This week we sit down to talk about our (Joey & Nate's) favorite topic, shoes! We touch a little bit on everything in the shoe world, from controversies to upcoming releases and everything in between.

Superb Owl, the Big Game, whatever you call it, the Dorks along with special guest Trevor from the Secondary Heroes talk about it. From the actual game and the Half-Time show to the commercials and every possible tangent, we take an in-depth analysis of it all. We also answer some completely random questions to score one awesome home run of an episode!

*** SPOILERS AHEAD *** Is this the way? Yes, yes it is, especially when Star Wars Super Fan Reis O'Brien joins us to talk all things Book of Boba Fett! Did we like it? What did we think of the end? Do we go off track? And are spoilers even more of a discussion than normal?.. maybe. You'll just have to listen (and laugh) to find out for yourself...

It's Part 1 of our who knows how many parts 2022 movie preview! This week The Dorks use their Google skills to look up IMDB and chat about upcoming movies from now until the end of April! We talk about what we're excited about, what we're not excited about, and answer some very topical #AskTheDorksmen questions. Are there any upcoming movies you're excited about?

*** SPOILERS AHEAD *** Happy New Year! Welcome to 2022 and another spoiler-filled episode with The Dorks. This week we watched the Matrix Resurrections so you don't have to! is what Joey says... while Nate and Clint somewhat agree but also disagree. We do a deep dive of everything Joey didn't like about the new Matrix movie and try our best to find things we did enjoy about it. There are definitely spoilers discussed so be careful if you have intentions of watching it! As usual we are off topic right at the jump because staying on topic is overrated, enjoy!

*** SPOILERS AHEAD *** Join us this week as we sit down and talk about a bow and arrow wielding duo who fights against the forces of evil! No, not Katniss Everdeen and Peeta, we're talking Hawkeye & other Hawkeye! With the Hawkeye television series wrapping on Disney Plus, the Dorks got together and did a spoiler filled deep dive. We talk about what we enjoy and didn't enjoy about the show, spend a lot of time going off topic, and ultimately rank the 5 Marvel Disney Plus shows that have been released to date. We also speculate what's next and as usual answer some of your #AskTheDorksmen questions!

*** SPOILERS AHEAD *** Surprise! and happy holidays! We've got a super special mid-week spoiler-filled episode for you! On this cold wintery December night, we are joined by our good friend RyceBallz (The Other Joey aka Azn Joey) as we sit down and talk Spider-Man: No Way Home. We go deep into the spoilers as we share our thoughts on the movie, so please tread carefully if you have yet to watch it, you've been warned! We talk everything No Way Home, expand the convo to the future of the MCU, and somehow manage to spend way too much time discussing the acting chops of Sandra Bullock. Have fun and stay safe over the Christmas holidays!

Ready for our Holiday Episode?.. the answer is no, no you are not. We have special guest, Mr double underscore himself, Austin Keel join us as we talk about our Stonehenge, er, Mount Rushmore of worse holiday movies.

(from Funko) and Scott! We sit down this week to make Nate feel really bad about missing the con and make sure to point out all the amazing stuff in full detail of what he missed out on. We answer a couple of #AskTheDorksmen questions that lead us right back into the discussion, we talk about the good, not much bad, and maybe something ugly. As always we find a way to go off topic even though we establish the topic straight away, but that is part of our charm. Enjoy!

*** SPOILERS AHEAD. WATCH OUT. *** Hello! and welcome to another episode of The Dorksmen where we intend to have a topic and it takes us forever to get to the topic because we're likely going to be off topic a bunch. But before you get too far into this week's episode, please be aware that we are 100% SPOILING Ghostbusters: Afterlife! (Even if Nate didn't watch it yet, it's entirely his own fault but he'll blame Clint). That's right, we talk the new Ghostbusters movie today! We talk about what we liked, what we didn't, where we'd like to see the franchise move towards in the future, plus so much more off topic shenanigans that you all know and love. Have fun!
