Mediocre EntertainmentBack from Ankle SurgeryIn the words of Ms Stefani "watcha waitin watcha waitin for." I have made my humble return to the podcast after a two month recovery from a fun little ankle surgery. It was definitely a time away, but i return with new film and tv knowledge, as well as novice banjo abilities as I slowly work my way up to walking again. Thanks to all who have continued to listen, through my radio silence and all the support.2022-07-0330 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: My Pieces of April in MoviesThis episode unintentionally turned into what I'm watching, along with a couple of suggestions and very vague reviews, but all in good fun. Recording the podcast has escaped my mind at moments, but I still love it and am honored that anybody winds up listening to this. Seriously "Everything, Everywhere, All at Once" is amazing, and there is a ton of amazing new stuff that is coming out.2022-04-2824 minMediocre EntertainmentTwo Years of MediocrityAnd Just like that Mediocre Entertainment has reached it's second year of mediocrity and i couldn't be happier. This podcast is truly a joy to create and publish. For all those that have joined thank you and I'm excited for more to come.2022-03-2322 minMediocre EntertainmentRR(MM) Rom-Coms + Zucchini MuffinsThis is a very special return to midnight madness, meaning it's just as hectic as you would expect from my sleep-addled brain. I speak on my love of zucchini muffins, a J-lo Rom-Com(the genre in general), and so much more. I hope you enjoy the episode it will be interesting to listen to it cause this is an instance where i don't remember what I said.2022-02-2128 minMediocre EntertainmentRR:What Happened to OhioThe Ohio Erasure podcast episode nobody has been waiting for. It is something that is just often on my mind because for how not that bad Ohio is, people only mention how not that good it is. Correction: {Stef-in} Curry, blame Stephen Colbert2022-01-1823 minMediocre EntertainmentDecember RundownAll the hits of this December and everything that i can remember that has happened. It's been a packed month but I'm surrounded by a heep of great people. "What we do in the shadows" podcast episode coming soon.2021-12-3128 minMediocre EntertainmentQuick Update: Packing and StudyingDon't worry your "Mediocre Entertainment" fix will be back soon enough but tonight i just have the final grind for a extensive take home final and packing to leave for tomorrow. Thank you very much for listening, soon all will sorta be explained. Also i have a soar throat that i didn't make any better by recording this.2021-12-1505 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Why "Titanic" SU(N)CKSWow look at me posting two episodes in a month again. Fair warning spoiler alert for "Titanic," "La La Land," "The Notebook." I honestly barley explained why I don't like "Titanic" but it's a grievance that I've had for the past 10 years and it's hard to remember every reason. Unlike "Jurassic Park 3" which i remember every reason why i don't like it.2021-12-0122 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: I Broke My FootIts been a little while but as you might have guessed by the title I broke my foot, so I took a mini break. I also talk about the usual random life updates, including my FIRST IMPROV SHOW!!! This episode, is an episode in which I hope you can enjoy.2021-11-0823 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Apparently I Have a PodcastWelp it's been a little bit and in that time stuff has happened. For about a week and a half i was sick so I didn't have my regular speaking voice. I took some exams, met new friends, and so much more bringing me here. Sorry for the delay, my goal is to have another episode and not to wait about 24 days between releasing an episode.2021-10-2422 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Gabbing w/ My Roommate ft. MaddieYou guessed it took a while but i finally got my roommate on the podcast. You could even say we are a good time? I wouldn't, but Maddie would. Thanks for joining me Maddie and thanks to all that listen it means the world to me.2021-10-0130 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Mistaken Identity & College LivingLow-key nobody told me that college would be this many readings, so sorry for the lack of content but I'll try my best. Also a roommate episode will be coming soon so that should be fun. I don't know what this episode is just that i read 60 pages and did a discussion post before it.2021-09-1624 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Dorm Living & General NonsenseI just want to say that i did in fact record this yesterday with the intention to release yesterday, but I fell asleep. I'm sorry but here it is in the middle of the night :). In this episode like any good Random Rambles i talk about a lot of random stuff and just go where my mind takes me aka it's late and i don't exactlly remember all that i said. Thanks for listening and support of the podcast. - Ari (at night)2021-09-0124 minMediocre EntertainmentRR(MM): Star Trek Era, Rom-Coms, and "The Chair"This episode like any good random rambles feature is all over the place. In what was planned chat about me watching star trek devolved into other shows on Netflix, and a little about rom-coms. I hope you enjoy this episode, audio is off cause i recorded from my phone but hey not the first time it happened.2021-08-1921 minMediocre EntertainmentAn "Uppie-Downie" Chess Match ft. AliciaToday I'm joined by my day one aka my older sibling. The chess commentary on this is not stellar, but think chaotic Jerry's Game that doesn't make a lot of sense but still funny in its own way. Thank you again for joining me Alicia hopefully you decide to come back to the podcast soon I had a lovely time having you on the podcast.2021-08-1135 minMediocre EntertainmentPredicting Which Friends Listen to the PodcastThis episode is exactlly what it sounds like, I make predictions of which friends i think listen to the podcast along with my reasoning along my decision. I had fun recording this episode so I hope you enjoy.2021-07-2824 minMediocre EntertainmentScreening Brain stuffThe main discussion starts 4 min in if you want to jump to that, this episode gives a little bit more insight to me as a person. I know I never had to make this, but I felt like sharing my current experience in the diagnosis process and what encouraged me to seek one. I would not say I'm exactly private when it comes to this area of my life I just usually speak on it if prompted and I felt that today was a good day to do htat. Thank you so much for the support for this podcast I'm...2021-07-1930 minMediocre EntertainmentMediocre RevampThis is technically a Random Rambles but in it i express how I will try to implement changes that make the podcast a bit more structured. So really just making sure I don't record episodes again at 4 in the morning when I'm running on fumes!2021-07-0826 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Aviator Buyer's RemorseThis episode like any true Random Rambles goes all over the place especially because it was recorded at 5:50 in the morning and I was running on about 3 hours of sleep. I talk about my life long aspiration of confusing with a crystal tumbler, getting prescription aviators, the season 5 premier of "The Good Fight", and so much more so enjoy!2021-06-2427 minMediocre EntertainmentLWAM: Demolishing "Soapdish" ft. BelleIn this episode my friend Belle and I rightfully drag the 1996 movie "soapdish" through the mud for its heinous ending. The episode was fun because i got to talk to Belle, who is just as okay with rewinding a movie and expressing how confusing or bizarre something is. Disclaimer: "Soapdish" is a movie that is enjoyable up untill it's highly transphobic ending. And because of that ending I think it's vital to discuss how harmful they impact could have been and better forms or storytelling. We here at Mediocre Entertainment, host and guests alike, do not support or stand for...2021-06-1840 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: "The Good Fight" PsychobabbleI wasn't going to release this, because it is literall CHAOS that does not need an outlet. But the next episode I'm gonna release is gonna require some editing so take whatever randomness this is. So in the words of the season 5 trailer "I don't understand anything anymore." "Welcome to 2021" Like i don't even know it might have spoilers or it might not because it's like 27 min of talking with nothing behind. Enjoy the chaos of my mind. Also the good fight is a pretty good show if you want a bit of like a campy law show like watch...2021-06-0930 minMediocre EntertainmentMessing Around on a Piano: Lounge EditionThe episode is what it sounds like, but keep in mind it's like 26 min of mediocre piano playing. But i did work through what I'm doing for my senior showcase at my school theater department version of the Tony's which is cute. Thanks for 600 plays the progress is outstanding!!!2021-05-2626 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Last Day of High School!Not gonna a lie it feels very weird being able to say that and that I'll no longer have to set my 10 alarms every morning to get ready for that day of school. Today's episode is what it sounds like, my last day of highschool. I mainly talk about my day and the last couple of days leading up to it. This was recorded on my phone but the next will be with the mic. Thanks for the support and thanks for bearing in with me during the hiatus. There will probably be a better recap later on, but these...2021-05-2028 minMediocre EntertainmentQuick Update: Be Back SoonJust wanted to give a quick update on when regular occuring episodes will be occuring. Thanks for the support i love making it so I'm glad people enjoy it and I hope to return by latest next week.2021-05-0202 minMediocre EntertainmentLWAM: "Copacabana"(1985 TV Film) ft. MakennaThe moment we have all been waiting for the,,, the review of the 1985 TV film "Copacabana" with special guest Makenna. The audio on this one is a little shotty as it was recorded on my phone, but the content is great. This is probably one of the most obscure pieces of media I have ever consumed in my life, but it was worth it. There can never be too much Barry appreciation, thank you for the support and thanks Makenna for letting me talk your ear off for the past two year about Barry Manilow in study hall.2021-04-1544 minMediocre EntertainmentAri From Friends' PerspectiveYou didn't ask for it, but I talked about doing it so here it is, an entire episode devoted to information about me that my friends think are quintessential or that anybody would know about me. I know I talk a lot on the podcast about myself and the activities that go on in my life, but now you have the key information, the abstract if you will. Thanks to all my friends that helped compile this list I would be lost without them most of the time. I hope you enjoy the podcast and if you have any business...2021-04-0726 minMediocre EntertainmentONE YEAR ANNIVERSARYIt is kind of hard to believe that it has already been a year of Mediocre Entertainment, surprisingly there was only one name change in that duration of time so I think that shows personal growth on my end on sticking to something. I'm thankful to every listener and every guest of the podcast, you have truly made this something I'm proud to be a part of so thank you. I remember last year I was hesitant to make a podcast as it was the first time really doing this on my own, but you guys have shown me that...2021-03-2325 minMediocre EntertainmentMaking a WebsiteAfter almost a year of having a podcast, there is finally a website, and to think it only took me about an hour to make. I'm aware it is kind of bare-bonesing it for the quality of a website, but it is better than nothing. I'm really excited about it though, because it marks a new landmark for the podcast along with the SECOND EVER REVIEW so thanks. This is a bonus episode, it does not follow the usual plot and there is some repetition throughout on discussion points FYI. I litteraly just talk through the process of making...2021-03-1833 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Proactive ProcrastinationDo I actually talk about the topic, Yes. Do I get off topic for a portion of the discussion, of course. In all fairness if I didn't do that then it would not be an authentic podcast episode.
Today I talk about proactive procrastination, the phenomenon of doing beneficial tasks, while you should be completing other tasks. Fun Fact: recording this episode is actually an example of my own proactive procrastination habits. I hope you can find some joy from this episode, I don't think its exactly beneficial, but on the bright side I did more tasks while recording this...2021-03-0822 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Barry Albums "UK, Hun?"There's a lot of p popping cause I didn't use my actual mic so sorry in advance. On this very special episode I explain my new found love of the song "UK Hun" and a little Barry Manilow. Of course there's more in the mix but that's the majority so I hope you can enjoy.2021-02-2823 minMediocre EntertainmentMM: Irrational FearsThe long awaited episode dedicated to my irrational fears has finally arrived. From everything encompassing David Duchovney's face to steep inclines. I'm quite an odd person so it makes sense that my irrational fears are odd as well. I hope you enjoy the episode and make sure to tune in for more to come. I also was slightly dozing off at the end because it was 3 am when I recorded this.2021-02-1820 minMediocre EntertainmentRR(MM): No Thoughts Head EmptyDon't worry Feb. will still have the designated three podcast episodes per month so all is good in the world. In all honesty I don't remember what I talked about, because this was recorded at 3 in the morning and then I recorded another episode right after it. I think it is a little amusing, but I'm very certain of the recurring "I don't know what to say," mainly because my head was empty at the time of recording and there are just no thoughts passing by my head while talking. Alrighty that is all I got, I hope you...2021-02-1018 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Serving "Night Court" RealnessHi people! The audio isn't as spectacular as usual from the lack of me using the microphone I bought, but I'll probably use it for the next one. In this episode I talk about my new instagram venture, @famousfitsforall, where i recreate some iconic looks and having two phases at once, Fran Lebowitz and "Night Court." Totally makes sense right. I recorded an episode before this, but even that was a little off the wall for me, but it has the possibility of being unearthed one day.2021-01-3026 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Red Cross MVP & Side-tracker ExtraordinaireHello this podcast could technically be split in half if you would like to hear about one more than another, of course I get distracted during both but at the 10min marker I focus directly on donating blood today. I was going to make a pun about my blood type, but I decided against it because there are not many for AB+ that I'm aware of. The first part of the podcast I go a little into how I am definitely in a Fran Lebowitz phase and my first theater meeting as a stage manager. Also look at me...2021-01-2020 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: "Pretend It's a City" Papa LouieHello and welcome to the first podcast episode of the year. I guess we can call it a random rambles, although it wasn't stated I think it is kind of implied throughout the episode. In this I go over the new docuseries on Netflix that I'm loving, "Pretend It's a City." And of course the iconic game series that is Papa Louie, if you don't know what it is I suggest starting with either the classic Burgeria or some of the most recent like, Cupcakaria or Cheesaria, while you listen to this podcast. Speaking of podcasts thank you so...2021-01-1329 minMediocre EntertainmentStream of ConsciousnessThis episode was more for myself to feel like I was being upfront and honest with the podcast, because I don't want to feel like I ever need to put up a façade about who I am for something I create. I am who I am, how wonderful that may be it is the truth and since this is something I enjoy doing I just feel I should be completely honest in the future, addressing my strengths, weaknesses, emotions and flaws.2020-12-3030 minMediocre EntertainmentLife Update: 17 & Accepted Into CollegeHello and Welcome back to another episode of Mediocre Entertainment. I held off on recording a podcast so that I was able to gather my thoughts, but I think I was able to do it even if I got slightly off topic it was only once. Although fair warning that occurrence lasted about 7 minutes and was about Cher's ABBA cover album and I stand by it (and I'll say it again). But the real reason for this episode was to share some very exciting news that happened in my life, which is SPOILER ALERT; being accepted into the Class of 2025...2020-12-2127 minMediocre EntertainmentMERRY BIRTHDAY ARI(Me)As you might be able to tell from the title this episode centers around my birthday, which at the time of release will be 25 min from occurring. I will be the big one seven(17), a little odd because I still feel like 16 at heart. I was saving to record the next episode about my birthday and I didn't want to bombard anybody with two podcasts in the span of a week. This is lowkey a random rambles, but not entirely (I might just get off topic a lot, which is alright I guess since I have a podcast). Thank you...2020-12-1130 minMediocre EntertainmentRR(Midnight Madness): 24hrs w/out Talking & Forgetting How to Spell My NameRecording this episode actually marked the end of 24 hours with out speaking. I didn't do it for an exact reason, but for a while now i thought it would be insightful to go a day without speaking. I learned more about myself through it and I would do it again. Along with and Random Rambles i get extremely sidetracked and forget what I'm actually talking about, but Harry Potter does come up.2020-11-2823 minMediocre EntertainmentGeronimo Stilton Appreciation PostI mean it was bound to happen one of the best children book series deserves it's own episode, I'm kinda surprised I didn't think of it sooner. Also I am a person of my word and actually had a new episode by the 20th, hey I might even have another episode recorded by the 29th. Thanks to the recent influx of listeners I'm honored. Geronimo Stilton is absolutely iconic not even a contest.2020-11-2028 minMediocre EntertainmentWorking on AP Stats HomeworkHello and welcome to this episode of Mediocre Entertainment in which I recorded an entire episode while working on my AP Stats homework. Technically it isn't really Stats Homework rather test prep, but you get the picture. I never imagined how challenging it would be to talk and read at the same time but I was able to accomplish it and even got the majority of the questions correct. I hope you are having a great day and I guarantee a new podcast episode by Nov. 20.2020-11-1224 minMediocre EntertainmentRR(Midnight Madness): Student of the Month & Bette MiddlerHello I know it has been 19 days, but college applications have me writing like I am running out of time. That will be the last Hamilton reference for this episode because there are like two in the episode. This is titled "Midnight Madness" in parenthesis because don't you just love alliteration, and because I started recording this at 11:59 PM. Sorry in advance for the audio it sounds clear, but it is not as loud as usual because I did not want to wake my family up in the middle of the night because they need sleep. I started talking about...2020-10-2829 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Bad Impressions & Finished EssaysWow can you believe another podcast in the span of 9 days, it's almost like I'm getting a schedule for recording now. If you didn't guess this Random Rambles is extra distracted today no matter how much I try to follow one train of thought. I do a couple bad impressions and I talk about how I finally was able to finish my college essay. Thanks for listening and make sure to subscribe, rate the podcast 5 stars, and tell your friends. Instagram and Twitter: @earnestmediocre2020-10-1025 minMediocre EntertainmentLWAM: "Ocean's Eleven" ft. MiaWow a certified Let's Watch a Movie on International Podcast Day, I don't know how I keep coming back with surprises. This is proof that I stick to my word, since this was done socially distanced you will probably be able to tell that there are some trouble spots with the audio, but at least you don't only have to listen to my voice. I love the Ocean's franchise and I'm so glad I was joined by Mia to review the first one, even if we got off topic and went on a couple of random tangents about what the...2020-09-3041 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: 19 Days LaterIt kinda seems like I'm saying "Hi I'm back" a lot, but I can guarantee you that there will be at least one more episode of the podcast for this month. This is kinda self evidently titled, as it has been 19 days from the last release, although I attempted to record an episode it sadly failed. Hopefully the sound is a bit louder as I went in and increased the gain, technically editing, but nothing was cut so it still follows Random Rambles protocol. I talk a little about screaming in the parking lot of a golf club, running as...2020-09-2026 minMediocre EntertainmentLife Update: First College Interview & Advising FreshmanBoom I'm back with another Life Update episode that is actually more organized, which is really saying something for this podcast. Thank you for the influx of new listeners hopefully you are enjoying this podcast, like I am enjoying the joys of mediocrity. But I just want to say AHHHHH real quick because, I just finished my first college interview a little over an hour ago and I have a lot of feelings about. In case you were wondering it was with Tulane University in Louisiana, I think it well and hope it went well as I really like the...2020-09-0125 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Jurassic Park Series(Edit: Okay apparently the quality is good but the volume is really quite depending on what platform you listen to the podcast to. So I'll try to work on it for next time.) Yep you guessed it an entire Random Rambles devoted to me discussing the Jurassic Park film series. Of course some minor spoilers involved, but for talking about a series I think I did an okay job at only giving away a few character deaths. Love the movies or hate them you can not deny that there are iconic in their own right. Thanks for clicking on this...2020-08-1923 minMediocre EntertainmentLife Update: New Mic, Golfing, and Finished ClassesThis isn't exactly a Random Rambles, but it follows the similar format of me not remembering if I am repeating myself or not. But a key difference that the real ones will notice is that this episode is actually edited, which is never the case for a Random Rambles. As you may notice there is an elevated sound quality for the podcast as I bought a microphone and could not be happier. I hope you enjoy this episode and although this is three plays preemptively, but thank you for a total of 100 plays before school started I'm thankful for every...2020-08-1128 minMediocre EntertainmentACNH: The BasicsIt's not exactly just Animal Crossing: New Horizons, but I do play during this episode. And of course I get a little of topic but it wouldn't be an episode of Mediocre Entertainment without it. We are 11 plays from reaching 100 so thanks to everyone who has listened. I love doing this podcast and I'm glad that people might get some enjoyment from it.2020-07-3024 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Just Me Getting SidetrackedI'm back after a two week hiatus with another random rambles. I've been busy working and learning, but that's life. I literally haven't listened to this before publishing and this is completely unedited as are all Random Rambles. I don't really remember what I was talking about, but I got like 20 minutes worth so that's pretty good. Thank you for listening and reading this far. I hope you enjoy this especially mediocre episode.2020-07-1820 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: Job, Permanent Retainer, TrainingAhhhh, so much has happened in the span of time of done each clip. Overwhelming things, but overall good things. I hope you enjoy this episode of Random Rambles. As always unedited and we both have no clue of what I'm talking about so have fun. Fun Fact: By the time this was released I was watching training videos for my new job.2020-07-0326 minMediocre EntertainmentLWAM: "Back to the Future" ft. KatieBack at it again with a Let's Watch a Movie. Personally I enjoy this one, Katie and I get off topic sometimes but that just makes it better. Sorry in advance for my mic I'm working on getting a new one so it doesn't sound as bad. This is also the first time using a new editing software that I have to get used to. Thanks for listening2020-06-2839 minMediocre EntertainmentRR: "The Good Fight", What I'm Watching, and SchoolBack by popular demand, by that I mean the friend that actively listens and is up to date with my podcast is Random Rambles. If you didn't already know it is 100% unedited thoughts that are derived from my brain. Thanks for listening and all the support, I like doing this podcast.2020-06-1121 minMediocre EntertainmentIntroducing Random Rambles aka RRThis is exactly what it sounds like just me rambling for 16 minutes. I talk about everything from starting Twitter fights to different methods of sifting dry ingredients while baking. I'm sorry I haven't published as many episodes, I'm gonna get better at that I promise. Thank you for listening, thank you for the support, thank you for everything.2020-05-3116 minMediocre EntertainmentLWAM: "Bee Movie" ft. Jill BillToday I'm joined by Jillian, a friend of mine for the past 11 years. The "Bee Movie " was Jill's pick, which I accepted because I thought that was the only way to get her on the podcast. I hope you enjoy this episode as I had a great time recording and being able to talk to Jill, even if it took us 3 and a half hours to get through it. Bee safe out there you guys and sorry for the audio quality in advance.2020-04-1947 minMediocre EntertainmentSaying Goodbye to LWAMThis is an update to what is happening to the "Let's Watch a Movie" podcast. It's not over just going through some changes. It's the middle of the night so don't be surprised by my odd stream of concious. I don't feel tired, but you can probably notice the impact my not going to bed has caused. Goodbye LWAM and welcome Mediocre Entertainment that has risen from it's ashes like a phoenix. Okay I'm really going to bed now.2020-04-0811 minMediocre EntertainmentLWAM: "Ice Age" ft. Angelica & AliciaHello and welcome to the very first episode of "Let's Watch a Movie" with Ari Chillicothe.
