Show #92 - Mercy

They did one last week, and here they've gone and done another one this week. Either you're being spoiled or punished, it's not clear which. Okay, yes, it's obvious you're being punished. Now here's a detailed rundown of how this week's punishment will be administered. Discussed: Last week's sup-par Word of the Week segment, season one of Netflix's 'House of Cards' and expectations for tomorrow's release of season two [SPOILERS!], the most recent manifestations of Stephen King's two big problems (graphomania and foot-in-mouth disease) are described, why the Olympics just aren't as interesting this go-round, Schwarzenegger's 'Escape Plan' and what happens at the end of that movie [SPOILERS!], Richard Curtis's 'About Time', a Word of the Week that could (should?) be the title of this podcast, a long overdue Apple News segment, and a sweet Monolith Moment that features an undertone of existential dread, and then a bunch of discursive chatting here and there. You know, like a podcast. Enjoy! Show #92
