NOW YOU MADE IT AWKWARD Ep155: "BURN"

from NOW YOU MADE IT AWKWARD · host SHOKY

We are back this week still minus a Jefe because he's still on his way back from the far off land of Canada. But Shoky has a tale from the event at Frankenboltzzzz and the upcoming On Location Episode.  We discuss major electrical failures in vehicles (sorry Louie) as Corvette seems to having a meltdown. Brand new cars catching fire at the gas pump. Well when not on fire the ZR1 and ZR1X are burning up records at the Nurburgring, knocking the Mustang GTD off it's throne immediately. We have 3 questions sent in the this week: Shaun asks what movies or series do we watch on a seasonal basis?  Tyler asks about CBD/THC beverages and our experience with them. Also bringing up that the younger generations are leaning away from drinking. But are they switching out one vice for another? Leaning more into drugs than alcohol. Jefe then wonders, if we as children ever created any culinary abominations? He needs help. Shoky began watching "Alien Earth" on HULU which goes back to the franchise horror roots and dense story telling.  But seemingly despite its great cast, amazing sets, well done special effects, people aren't happy with the outcome by Episode 3. Speaking of an alien Earth: Peacemaker Season 2 began as well. Coming out swinging with an emotional roller coaster as our favorite bad superhero discovers the multiverse and wonders if he can indeed leave his life behind. What would you do if you could have your dream life? Would you leave everything you have? And of course we can't not talk about the Cracker Barrel debacle. They changed the legendary logo and  have begun remodeling the restaurants to remove country store feel. People are NOT happy. But is it real change or something more devious? Why have restaurants gone away from a sense of whimsy and fun and replaced it with cold, clinical, boring slabs of white and grey? Why were things better in the 80s and 90s? Why did we remove the fun and flamboyant nature of our favorite eateries?  Oh and Trump said you can't burn the US Flag anymore. Is this a violation of freedom of speech? Is burning the flag speech? Why can't countries have pride in their symbols anymore? Look at Britain where they aren't allow to fly their flag at all!    Offical NYMIA Gear link: https://tinyurl.com/4t9a5ue7 Want to contact the show?: [email protected] Official FB Page: https://www.facebook.com/NowYouMadeItAwkwardPodcast/ Official NYMIA IG: instagram.com/nymia_pod PATREON link: https://www.patreon.com/ShokyReviews DISCLAIMER: Shoky Reviews, Shoky Reviews 2, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO MAKE SENSE, and NOW YOU MADE IT AWKWARD PODCAST are intended for adults and adult collectors and not directed at children under the age of 13. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SHOKY- YouTube SHOKY REVIEWS: https://youtube.com/c/ShokyReviews IT DOESNT HAVE TO MAKE SENSE: https://youtube.com/c/ITDOESNTHAVETOMAKESENSE facebook: https://facebook.com/ShokyReviews Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_shoky/
