Alright Steam People. It's time to get down and dare we say grungy? Yes we dare as we are The Steam Gentlemen after all.

It wouldn't even seem that unusually to be a kid in your teens and have your musical taste be this eclectic. But

Sports movies!!!!We love them. And the funny thing is. For about 90% of the time, we know how they are going to end. Really. Think about it. This is by far the most predictable genre of movie. And yet.....So today Greg, RaShaun and Josh sit down to talk about their favorite sports movies of all times.And talk about why we keep going back to this trope again and again? Is it the inspiration? Is it the hope that deep down we all want to be the sports hero? Or are we just all sappy suckers? Join the

Well it's time! Enough time has past and Josh FINALY got the guys to watch "Top Gun Maverick". And it's time to go ballistic. We mean that in a good way.

Or is it still just a giant recruiting poster for the United States Navy? Full disclosure The bird man wanted to fly for the Air force growing up and was convinced he would have a cool motorcycle

Does pop culture suck now? Is there no hope? Or is it us? The fans. The fanboys, the fanatics that are just getting to out of control and hard to please?

Does liking super heroes as a society make us more open to fascism? Well now that we have that award question out of the way. Welcome to the show. today we are keeping it light. And taking a deep drive into the premise that Alan Moore recently put forward. Is our acceptance of a strong hero the same as wishing for a strong man in government? One who says "I alone can fix it'? No need to engage voting. No need to keep up on political matters. Just let the strong daddy handle everything. Today Greg
