Happy Spooky season friends! Time for another movie deep dive, and this ep’s subject is a scaaaary one…scary FUNNY that is (see what we did there?)! That’s right, it’s Superbad, and Colin and Nester make the case for why this one may just be the best comedy of the 21st Century. We’ll talk about the project’s genesis and why it might feel so authentic, behind the scenes tales of the casting and production, and there may even be a Baby Boyz exclusive “interview” with one of the cast members. Listen to find out!

Welcome back babies, the Boyz are back in town! We’re kicking off season 2 with an idea that came to Nester in a waking COVID fever dream, kinda. We’re talking “alpinism” (mountain climbing, to the layperson); the history, the key players, the thrills, the chills, the spills. We also cover the pod’s new format at the top of the show, so get on board with that!. This ep also features some audio hijinks that have Nester clipping out like Max Headroom (don’t worry, still very listenable…we’re workin’ on it).

This week Colin & Nester ask themselves, “Hey, what was that Unabomber business all about?” Aside from covering Kaczynski’s biographical particulars and the bombings themselves, the boyz interrogate a few ideas from his doorstopper of a manifesto. Was Ted simply an insane recluse, or a violently misguided genius?
