The Occasionalists Podcast

We are back with a brutal, jaw-breaking, spine-ripping, fatality filled preview episode for the upcoming Mortal Kombat reboot! We touch on some things from our previous episode that covered the 1995 (bad movie) classic, discuss the Techno Syndrome remake, throw about some things we think make for a good video game movie and make a few predictions for what we're going to see this weekend.
Ready? 
FIGHT!

The Big Fix of our Let's Fix This Sh!t episode is here. Are these the most important things in the world? Of course not. The effort needed to make these things possible and the gatekeepers that would be necessary to bypass make these the biggest fixes of the episode.

A brand new episode is here and Chemma and I are out to fix all kinds of shit. We lay out an issue that is plaguing society, or at least bothering us, and we walk through how we would fix it. We're fixing sports, tv, movies, politics and more! 
Surely if Roger Goodell and George Lucas are listening to this podcast, as they usually do, everyone will be seeing the fruits of mental labor in short order.
 

We are back with a new episode dedicated to our friends from the Great White North and the massive impression a relatively small country has made in the entertainment industry. 
That's right Canada, this one is all aboot you!

A fun little episode where we explore the veracity of the entertainment we consume. 
How real is real in Hollywood? Does it even matter? How much disbelief are you willing to suspend?

It's about that time here again on The Occasionalists for us to dive into some sports! We look back on the past few months of sports news and do a little prognostication about what might happen in the future with the various leagues and of course our local Cleveland teams. 
We also touch briefly on a very serious matter with an important PSA.
And uh, why is it called the Blind Sports Check-Up? Tune in and find out!

QUIET! 
Line up and prepare yourself for a deep look at the YouTube/Netflix continuation of the Karate Kid Saga, Cobra Kai! Decades after the devastating (and very illegal) crane kick ended Johnny Lawrence's run on top of the SoCal youth karate scene, we catch up with the former champ and see that life is not going as he planned. 
How does the refocusing of the story on Johnny's struggles and growth work for this show? Is Daniel LaRusso a villain? Has he always been a villain? Where on earth did they find all of these dangerous teenagers for this show? Are there cops in the valley? 
We answer those questions and even start our own dojos in this in depth look at karate storytelling. 

We wrap up the month of January with a look back the mayhem and disregard for protocol that defined the Trump Administration and peek ahead at what might come to define the Biden Presidency. Our most pointed political episode and probably our last for quite awhile.
Buckle up!
