Episode 91: Wicked Awesome Rockstars, Sack-Tapping, and the Longest Running TV Show, “Banzai.”

In a very special episode of The Scope, the East-Coast boy band Lesser Knowns Skype up and spend some time with your three most favorite internet personalities ever. (No, we’re not talking about Ricky Gervais, Tay Zonday, and the stealth cat that stalks the camera set to the “Jaws” theme.) Listen in as LK (that’s what the cool kids call them) talk about the rocking & rolling, scallops, and youthful ass-kickatudeness(TM). You’ll also bear witness to the return of The Nerd Degree. That in itself is worth like $1.72 and a bus transfer.

Because we care, we also came through with some great news, a controversial review of LCD Soundsystem’s latest, and more “Lost” talk. Because, really, who can’t get enough of that?

The Scope episode 91 would never dream of sewing your face to another person’s bum.

Episode 90: Adam Adam And Cult Jam, The Smoke Monster, And Some Nasty Super Crabs

Nothing says “The Scope” like a good case of genital lice. In honor of that fact, your favorite podcasting hosts take a nit comb to the television program that is “Lost.” That’s right. “Lost” is ending and The Scope had to do what no other media outlet had done: give a full retrospective on the second best show Matthew Fox has ever done. (The first being “Party of Five.” Sorry we had to spell out the joke. But with our listeners, you just can’t assume anything.)

No, it ain’t original. But it did give us the opportunity to utilize one of the best soundboards ever created by man.

If total “Lost” coverage wasn’t enough, we also brought back a proper Scope music review. With sound clips and everything!!! Next thing you know, we’ll actually start doing prep work for the show. Hey, anything can happen.

The Scope episode 90 is fully backing the Nano Play concept.

Episode 89: Trippin’ Balls Rolls Off The Tongue

Everybody knows summer just ain’t summer without The Scope taking a seriously critical look at all of the movie releases of the season. So, just like we’ve done every year, we do a lot of big talkin’ about a lot of movies we probably won’t get around to seeing.

(Of course, that new Julia Robert’s movie, Eat, Pray, Love will definitely be seen multiple times by all three Scope hosts. Absolutely no worries there.)

And just to make the 2010 Scope Summer Movie Preview just a little more official, we invited occasional Scope contributor, Scooter, to stop by and give his subtle but intoxicating opinion. He also was cool enough to recently take a CROSS-COUNTRY ROAD TRIP to the Coachella music festival. You’ll find out how much drugs he took (none), how many wet t-shirt contests he judged (zip), and how many male ding-a-lings he saw (too many to count).

Finally, please pay close attention as poor Shane loses energy and is called out numerous times on his comedic skill level by the rest of the panel. It’s both sad and infuriating, all at the same time.

The Scope Episode 89, unlike MGMT, will always play their biggest hit at each and every one of their concerts.
