EPISODE 323 - Wilhelm Wonka - Who Asked You?

A terrible experience I had at a Las Vegas resort restaurant spawns a lengthy conversation about terrible meals at fast food locations all around town. We watch a clever Newcastle Superbowl commercial poking fun at Superbowl commercials which won’t even air during the Superbowl. Makes sense, right? GoDaddy’s Superbowl spot spoofing those puppy/Clydesdale ads from Budweiser irritated enough animal lovers on social media that the company pulled it from airing. We also talk about the new cast for the all-female GHOSTBUSTERS reboot. Thanks to a tantrum from Hershey’s, several popular brands of UK-made chocolate are now banned from being imported to the states. Thankfully, it turns out that stupid “Diabolus Rex” name for the dino-villain in JURASSIC WORLD is not the real monicker for the creature. We’ll tell you what is on today’s show. The publishers behind SkyMall are filing for bankruptcy and are ceasing all publication of the catalog. Another business that failed to adjust to the digital age bites the dust. And, one of the most recognizable Egyptian artifacts, King Tutankhamun’s burial mask, got broken and then hastily glued back together. Call that Jesus Christ fresco lady! She’ll save the day!
