In this episode we discuss our disappointment with the results of the "Big Game." Also, super bowl commercials today and for most of the past decade are not like super bowl commercials from the '90s, but people still try to act like they are still up to the same level. We also talk about the Falcon & Winter Soldier trailer.

2021-01-231h 08The Normals ShowEpisode 29: MLK Jr Day(1/18/2021) Let's get this out of the way up front: If you have made your political career by disenfranchising Black voters, don't expect anyone to take you seriously when you invoke Martin Luther King, Jr. on one day out of the year. We admittedly don't honor King enough in this episode other than to state that simple fact. In this episode we give our way too late review of JoJo Rabbit, we discuss the first two episodes of Wandavision on Disney+, we discuss the news that Deadpool and Blade are officially going to be rated-R movies and how Disney will...

2021-01-1059 minThe Normals ShowEpisode 27: Welcome to Cheese Planet Watonga!(1/3/2021) Happy New Year! We start off by talking about our "exciting" stay-at-home New Years events. We talk about how the Twilight Zone was a pretty progressive show for its time and dealt with a lot of issues like race and xenophobia, but looking back that progressivism was problematic because of how Hollywood chose to cast movies and tv shows at the time. We talk about the Wonder Woman sequel, Wonder Woman 1984. We continue our game from last episode called "Actors Whose Names Sound Like Star Wars Characters." And we memorialize those celebrities who have recently died, Tommy "Tiny" 'Zeus...

2020-10-071h 02The Normals ShowEpisode 18: 3...2...1...BOOP!(9/13/2020) Episodes aren't always this hard (or ridiculous) to sync up, but this one was for some reason. Also, I was watching NFL highlights in the background and didn't care to turn them off while recording. Sorry.

2020-09-021h 07The Normals ShowEpisode 14: For Those Who Don't Know...(8/1/2020) An alternate title for this episode could have been "Podcasts for Algernon." Caleb and Jeremiah are fairly intelligent people, but several months of faithful quarantining have left the memory sections of our brains in a mushy, ineffective state. We spend far too much time trying to remember the last time we recorded an episode. In this episode we talk about a theatre class in college that we hated, we talk about the deaths and careers of Regis Philbin, Wilford Brimley, John Saxon and Olivia de Havilland.

We also talk about the possibility of Michael Keaton returning as Batman for a DC project.
2020-07-1455 minThe Normals ShowEpisode 11: Down and Out in Steubenville, Ohio(6/29/2020) Sorry. This one ran a little long. Jeremiah takes a break from doing his home exercises to join the podcast. We discuss voice acting and the issue of whether it's wrong or acceptable for people of a certain race to play people of other races. This leads us to the topic of movies sometimes casting traditionally white characters as ethnic to be more diverse when they should really just create new, strong ethnic characters that can stand on their own. We realized we dove right in and started talking about the topics so instead of editing we just did...
2020-07-071h 18The Normals ShowEpisode 10: We're Men! We're Almost 40!

We also talk about the recent news out of Oklahoma State (both good and bad) about the renaming of a building named after a racist governor (good news) and...

DC Dumped Diamond!(6/5/2020) We talk about the news of DC severing ties with Diamond Comic distributors, we briefly catch up on Covid-19/George Floyd murder protest updates, and we talk a bit about the Back to the Future trilogy regarding how we viewed it as kids versus viewing it as an adult.
2020-06-1557 minThe Normals ShowThe Murder of George Floyd and Protests Against Police Brutality(6/2/2020) The killing of unarmed black men by the police has to stop. Something needs to change. Better police training, better background checks when hiring, whatever will help end this. George Floyd was killed for something as trivial as an alleged counterfeit $20 bill. His story is just one of so many thousands in the history of this country. We did not discuss this in depth because we are not the voices that need to be heard right now. We are unimportant. We wanted to release this episode to suggest places for people to donate or take action or to learn...
2020-06-0407 minThe Normals ShowEpisode 7: The Rock is like cheddar. He makes everything better.(5/23/2020) In this episode we have to once again eulogize a celebrity, Lynn Shelton.

2020-06-021h 05The Normals ShowEpisode 6: The Mystery of the Phantom Lou Ferrigno Polaroid(5/16/2020) In this episode we memorialize Fred Willard who just passed away, we talk about how we each got into reading comics, the first comic and entertainment convention we went to, and an ongoing debate about the existence of a Polaroid of Lou Ferrigno and Caleb that Jeremiah has definitely made up in his mind. If you know anything about the whereabouts of such a Polaroid contact Robert Stack on Unsolved Mysteries.
2020-05-261h 11The Normals ShowEpisode 5: Television Discussion (or: Jeremiah Found a Soundboard)(5/12/2020) In this episode we briefly discuss the career of Jerry Stiller and mourn his passing, Jeremiah found a soundboard, my wife and kids can be heard screaming and playing as they chase each other around upstairs, we discuss how television was ruined by "reality" shows in the early 2000s and later saved by networks like AMC, IFC, USA, Netflix, Hulu, etc., we talk about shows we're currently watching and how a lot of older shows (specifically Mr. Bean) still hold up today. Here's a link to the funnyordie (NSFW) video I mention during the podcast if you want to...
2020-05-1949 minThe Normals ShowEpisode 4: They're Beginning to Reopen things(5/5/2020) In this episode Jeremiah makes himself a drink, Caleb and Jeremiah discuss some of the sports and businesses that are planning to reopen (too early in our opinions), how some established actors and directors get lazy while some stay hungry and playful, and how there aren't really any character actors under 40 who really stand out anymore like they used to.
2020-05-121h 04The Normals ShowEpisode 3: Obligatory Covid-19 Discussion(4/25/2020) Originally this was supposed to be a shorter bonus episode or mini-episode, but what usually happens with us is we just can't stop talking, so it turned into a full episode.
In this episode we discuss the Covid-19 outbreak and how it's affecting us, Caleb briefly forgets the word "politicians," Jeremiah counters by forgetting the word "status," and a weird audio issue (due to having to record by phone) causes audio drop outs followed by audio overlapping. The best effort was made to remove all audio dropouts, but you will hear several moments where one of us a...
2020-05-0541 minThe Normals ShowEpisode 2: They finally made a good Superman movie, unfortunately it didn't have Superman in it.(4/18/2020) In this episode, Caleb and Jeremiah continue their discussion from the previous episode about the differences between Marvel and DC movies, Jeremiah stammers and yammers, and the audio drops out toward the end causing us to have to restart that particular topic (you'll notice it).
2020-04-2859 minThe Normals ShowEpisode 1: Introductions(4/18/2020) In this first episode of The Normals Show, Caleb and Jeremiah introduce themselves with a trip down memory lane to when they first met, discuss the passing of Brian Dennehy, and have a year-too-late conversation about Avengers: Endgame.
