Okay. I&#8217;ll accept that. But this week, it&#8217;s official (if temporary) as I guest on the <a href=\"http:\/\/dementeddoorknob.blogspot.com\/2012\/01\/demented-podcast-32-little-dense.html\">Demented Podcast<\/a>, hosted by Nick Jobe of <a href=\"http:\/\/dementeddoorknob.blogspot.com\">Random Ramblings of a Demented Doorknob<\/a> and Steve Honeywell of <a href=\"http:\/\/1001plus.blogspot.com\">1001 Plus<\/a>. This has become one of my favorite podcasts to listen to, both because the hosts have a great dynamic with each other, and because the show doesn&#8217;t focus on new releases like most other movie podcasts out there. Instead, the guest chooses a genre and each host chooses a film, usually one the other host has not seen, though that&#8217;s not necessarily required. In this case, I chose film noir, Nick chose <em>Kiss Kiss Bang Bang<\/em>, and Steve chose <em>L.A. Confidential<\/em>. I&#8217;d seen both of those before, but had been meaning to rewatch both, so it worked out pretty well.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, I forgot to mention. The second half of the show is a trivia game &#8211; probably the best trivia game I&#8217;ve heard on any podcast ever, thanks to the amount of work that Nick and Steve do actually writing a story to hang the questions on, a story that has something to do with the genre under discussion. There&#8217;s a lot of story that never gets read, too, since there are different ways the story could go depending on how well you do on the trivia questions. Yeah, it&#8217;s fun to listen to, and nervewracking (but also fun) to play. How well did I do? You&#8217;ll have to listen to find out. Which you can do below, on <a href=\"http:\/\/dementeddoorknob.blogspot.com\/2012\/01\/demented-podcast-32-little-dense.html\">Nick&#8217;s site<\/a>, or by subscribing to the show on iTunes. Which you should do.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, thanks for having me on the show, Nick and Steve! I had a great time.<\/p>\n<div class=\"centered\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oh, you think I&#8217;m already demented? Okay. I&#8217;ll accept that.
