“You’ve got your own wheelhouse??”

This week: Brandon, Tom, Josh and Zack catch up on some comic news before swiftly moving on to Microsoft’s recent Twitter disaster, the closing of Lucasarts, and a recently published article that coaches corporate managers on the best ways to manipulate their cancerous “creatives.” Then, after the break, Tom gives us a quick review of G.I. Joe: Retaliation and the gang answers some listener emails, ruining both fruit and muffins for everyone in the process.

Relax your body. Open your mind. Release the hostages. It’s Z-Time. And the love doctor is in.

As promised, Zack takes the helm this week– in his best wig and false glasses, to boot– and guides us through two and a half hours of Valentine’s Day-themed listener emails. Listen in as he shoves Brandon, Harrison, Josh and Tom through a carnival ride of painful memories, embarrassing confessions, sandwich preferences, and very definitely too many World War II jokes.

Z-DAYisCOMING

As is our somewhat established tradition, next week’s Valentine’s Day-themed episode will be hosted by America’s sweetheart, Zack.

To make this occasion extra-special, Zack (and the rest of us) will be looking to read as many listener emails over the course of two hours as possible. We invite you, our readers/listeners/contributors, to solicit Zack’s invaluable wisdom and unique perspective for any and all of your romantic concerns or personal problems, real or fictional.

♥♥♥ email Zack: podcast@jumpkickpunch.com ♥♥♥

Relevant emails should be submitted by Monday, 2/11 TUESDAY, 2/12. Zack will read them aloud, invariably mispronouncing your names and placing emphasis on whichever words he deems worthy.

Get excited and prepare as best you can. Z-Time is coming.

::UPDATE::

Good news, folks– if you’ve been sitting on an email draft, struggling to find the right words to properly convey your emotions, you have one more day to mull it over. Our recording night has shifted to TUESDAY of this week, meaning the new episode will go live on Wednesday evening (EST).

Try to contain your surging romantic impulses until then.

“What, you think you’re better than me?”

With Tom away and Brandon, Josh, Zack and Harrison left manning the helm, you know it’s gonna be a dirty one. After a rambling discussion about comic and manga problems, Harrison shares the details of his latest trip to the Child’s Play Charity Auction, and Josh shares some afterthoughts on Dishonored.
