Zack, Seth, and Ian talk about the first season of this pretty darn good somewhat different TV show on FX. It’s got the guy from Live Free or Die Trying’… or whatever.  Ian also makes a startling claim about The Wire.  It’s Year 4 of the Futile Podcast all bets are off.  Join us if you can.

Not to confuse this isn’t a new version of this fantastic film it’s yet another podcast about it from us.  Why? Because it’s Crank 2 any further justification would embarrass the both of us.

228. Real Genius (right click or click)

Mark makes his dramatic return to talk about this seminal coming of age 80′s comedy that most people probably don’t like because it lacks a smarmy unlikeable Matthew Broderickesque character. Oh wait he’s sort of the bad guy in this movie. Real Genius and Revenge of the Nerds paved the way for the society we have today where not being a nerd makes you a social pariah.

music:  NO MUSIC THIS WEEK (think of snow and cold but not Verspertine cold I don’t know maybe … like something Danny Elfmanesque)

212. Any Which Way You Can (right click OR click)
