136 - We're Here To Pump YOU Up!

Can You Confirm That? ·

2023/04/07

Gaurav and I (John) have both entered our names in the women's local powerlifting competitions. We don't think either of us are stronger than any women in the competition to be clear, we are just doing it to make a fool of ourselves and to like, mock the policy? Well, that's what happened in Alberta last week and we will skirt the issue and as we tend to do, look for the most non-toxic explanations of what's really going on. We are happy you're hear to listen and hope you check

2023/03/31

Slightly exaggerated, but isn't that the point? A few things happened at the start of this week that are now old news and you'll find them in this podcast but we'd like to focus our description on the tech review in the last 60% of the episode. We are talking about soundbars and Atmos, how does it make a difference? Is back corner better than rear surround channel?

134 - We Have A Dream Of Incarceration

Can You Confirm That? ·

2023/03/24

We were so hopeful when recording this episode and now, in the future, I'm not sure if it'll ever happen? The former Commander and Thief, Donald Trump is facing charges that could end up with his arrest soon - could. There are a lot of options of which charges he's facing that will be the ones that stick, but if track record says anything, I doubt we will be so lucky. John debuts he's Donald Trump imitation he's been working on... sorta! Make sure to subscribe if you're

2023/03/10

Inflation - enough said right? Well, we are looking into ways to avoid being broke-ass. Take advantage of some special offers like housing being offered to people that will stay and invest in rural parts of the world. In Japan, specifically being connected by the greatest train system we think being remote isn't such a bad idea. Let's talk pros and cons and what it'll take to make it happen overseas.

131 - This Episode Gets Derailed

Can You Confirm That? ·

2023/03/03

It's been a month since a train carrying a large amount of chemicals derailed and burned in East Palestine, Ohio and our small little podcast wants to make sure it's being talked about. In CYCT fashion, we do change subjects and get into all the movies coming out this month. Hollywood is hitting us hard with a blockbuster a week in March. Will you happily go back to the theatre?

It's Friday and we've got another episode! This week, we look at the future of the MCU starting with phase 5 and Ant-man and the Wasp: Quantumania.

129 - Dunkin' On Commercials

Can You Confirm That? ·

2023/02/17

Advertisers blow the bank to get your eyes on their products during the big game. It's when we see the biggest budget, most star-studded, ground-breaking commercials each year. So let's review them shall we? Everything from electric cars to rice puffed chips will have their time to shine, if they're willing to pay for it. Is the cost really worth it? I don't know, as I'm writing this description, I can't remember all the commercials we reviewed so not can't be worth it for all? Hey, if you're

2023/02/10

What a week it has been, this episode we cover some of the news that crossed our desk before recording on the 6th. The dumbest criminal ever, who broadcast to the entire internet what he was trying to accomplish. Bro, next time - live stream it on twitch and ask chat. The spy balloon caught, slowly trying to get away over American airspace. Then, for fun, we get sorted. By that, I mean we find out with Hogwarts house we belong to.

127 - We Predict Booster Gold

Can You Confirm That? ·

2023/02/03

We love a chance to make a prediction, and see how far off we end up. This week we are predicting James Gunn's super gamble with the new and cohesive DCU, spanning film and TV, live and animation and everything in-between. This is a description that has hind-sight and we now know the first few years planned but we had no idea what would be the future when we recorded this episode and have fun speculating what we think, clearly we are not in charge for good reason.

126 - Boomer Madison Bites Back

Can You Confirm That? ·

2023/01/27

Well, it took 125 episodes to crack us. We finally fell into Boomer territory with this one. A big promise to not make this a common occurrence. Some times you need to reflect on how things have changed in society and that positive impression of the past, whether it was actually good or not... Is called Nostalgia. Have some fun while we explore the difference we are observing in the world today. If this episode doesn't put you off - check out our archive at www.cyctpod.com Thanks for listening! JB

125 - Chef Pedro's Cordyceps Omelette

2023/01/20

This week, we start our coverage of HBO's "The Last of Us" series, starring Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey. The show aired last Sunday (Jan. 15th, 2023) and was the second biggest release ever on the HBO network. That could be in part to it being based on a very popular Playstation videogame of the same name from 2013. Do you need to have played the game to enjoy the show, we are going to find out. One of us (John) has played and one of us (Gaurav) hasn't. How will that effect our opinions of the

2023/01/13

It's about to get real nerdy in here... Are you excited about hearing two 40 year-olds fumble their way through creating a role-playing character for Dungeons & Dragons?! This suits our tagline perfectly, two non-experts with nimble wiki fingers. Luckily, our favorite new collaborator, ChatGPT was there to help us form our characters backstory.

2022/12/16

Well, was he? My uncle worked for Canada Brick, was he? This week we take another risk. It's not enough that the Christmas associations are after us, we would like the rest of the governing associations across the globe to target us but talking about the Freemasons and other secret societies. I guess we will confirm or deny whether these forces should be messed with by how successful this episode is.. Maybe you can help!?
