By Jack Sullivan on August 18, 2020 in Captain Jack's Armbar Emporium, Nostalgia

This week’s episode began with a question from Captain Jack (@JackHeartless) to longtime KISS fan and manager extraordinaire Halston Boddy (@HalstonBoddy): “Is UNMASKED any good?”

The resulting conversation covers, but is not limited to, face paint, helmets, Cher, Diana Ross, fraud, the record industry in the 70s, Studio 54, disco, punk, piles of autobiographies, and so much more. Strap in for a WILD history lesson this week!

CJAE 106: The Last Dance! (Pt. 1)

By Jack Sullivan on May 18, 2020 in Captain Jack's Armbar Emporium, Nostalgia

And now for something completely different…

Captain Jack (@JackHeartless) welcomes PWInsider’s own Mike Epsenhart (@MikeEpsenhart) as they step away from the squared circle to talk about the most anticipated sports and TV event of the year: the massive ESPN/Netflix co-production The Last Dance, chronicling the final season of the Chicago Bulls dynasty.

In part 1, covering Episodes 1-5, Jack & Mike discuss Michael Jordan lifting the Bulls and the NBA into uncharted territory from the moment he joined the league: dropping 63 on one of the greatest teams ever, launching the Nike revolution, and killing Patrick Ewing’s dreams repeatedly, along with Scottie Pippen’s true value, Dennis Rodman’s personal epiphany, Phil Jackson’s LSD trips, conquering the Bad Boys, and so much more.

Strap in, it’s game time!

CJAE 88: What’s That Smell?!

By Jack Sullivan on April 19, 2019 in Captain Jack's Armbar Emporium, Commentary, Nostalgia

By popular demand, Captain Jack (@JackHeartless), along with returning friend of the show Christopher Pelletier, sit through *another* terrible wrestling movie for your enjoyment, as they watch wrestler/actor/sentient hot dog Hulk Hogan in the infamous No Holds Barred. Bask in the hamminess of Kurt Fuller, thrill to Rip’s incomprehensible hand signals, try to decipher why Zeus was inserted into WWF storylines, and most importantly, see if you can figure out…WHAT’S THAT SMELL?!?!?!

This Week’s Episode 3: There Is No Environment In This Dojo!

By Jack Sullivan on May 16, 2018 in Commentary, Nostalgia, This Week's Episode, Uncategorized

Annnnd they’re back (and sponsored by Coor’s Banquet, to boot)! The original idea for episode 3 has been postponed, as the gang is on fire to talk about the newest addition to one of Zach’s (@realzachhiggins) favorite franchises.

That’s right, Syd (@sydneespeaks), Zach and Jack (@JackHeartless) are talking all things Cobra Kai, how it ties back to the original Karate Kid trilogy, and why it worked when so many other reboots failed.

(NOTE: Season 1 will be discussed in detail. Please watch Cobra Kai on YouTube Red before listening to this episode. It rules!!)

Opening theme by The Damned (@damnedtwits).

Closing theme by Joe Esposito.
