JAWGUST 2: “JAWSTEMBER 1, 2026” (1 of 1)
Just when you thought it was safe to go listen to another podcast...JAWGUST 2 may be officially done - but I am here with one more bonus episode ready to talk about JAWS 2 - just not the movie! I talk about various JAWS 2 related merchandise, some of which came out to coincide with the movie -...

JAWGUST 2: “Open Wide! Say Ah!!” (31 of 31)
All good things come to an end. And also so do month long podcasts about JAWS 2. Here we are on the final day of JAWGUST 2 and all I can say is - thank you to everyone who reached out, who sent comments, to Eric and Chris for joining the show - and to everyone who listened!! Of course I go…

JAWGUST 2: “Oh, My God, No! No!!!” (30 of 31)
Happy Sunday, Sharkys! Today is the 2nd last day of JAWGUST 2 and I was ready to see our hero shark finally get a taste of this wicked, villainous teens! And it would have if that disgraced former police chief - the one who showed up in the stolen police boat - hadn't distracted the shark by...
-
JAWGUST 2: “It's That Thing! I Know It! It's Gonna Kill Us!” (29 of 31)
Happy Saturday fellow people who thought it was safe to go back into the water! Today on JAWGUST 2, we do get a shark - but still not a lot happens. This is not a last minute opinion of mine as I show proof that I have been thinking this about these 220 seconds of JAWS 2 since very early this...
-
JAWGUST 2: “God, Please Help Us” (28 of 31)
Happy Friday non-shark fans! Today on JAWGUST 2, we get another episode without any shark! I did however talk about an article from the Daily Jaws, as well as mention actor video messages you can purchase for charity. Plus, the intro was taken from this Joe Bob Briggs video that I promised I’d...
-
JAWGUST 2: “Sean, Try and Catch The Rope!” (27 of 31)
Happy Thursday boat fans! Today on JAWGUST 2, we get what might be the most boring 3 minutes and 40 seconds of this movie - or at least of the big conclusion. And to make matters worse - my long time friend, JAWS super fan and fellow podcaster Chris joins the show for the fourteenth time! I have…
more -
JAWGUST 2: “Now, Hold On To Something!” (26 of 31)
Oh what a happy day it is, JAWS fans! I mean sure, JAWGUST 2 can celebrate the fact that the shark comes through big with not one, but two attacks tonight! Two pretty great ones too. But one - oh one could have been so much better. And maybe - maybe it's just not as ridiculous as it appears? Here...
-
JAWGUST 2: “I Have a Positive Location On That Sailing Party!” (25 of 31)
Ahoy, you whirlybirds! Today in JAWGUST 2 it looks like our local teens are about to be rescued. Phew! I thought I was going to need rescuing myself today as my usual computer is giving me issues forcing me jump on my wife's old PC and - hope for the best! This episode was edited and put together…
more -
JAWGUST 2: “Somebody Look Out For Mike!” (24 of 31)
Happy Monday Jawsamaniacs! Today is back to just ol' Mikey for JAWGUST 2. Today I discuss a shot that should have been considered classic, and back in 1978 probably was beloved, but in today's world of high definition is probably seen now as more infamous! I also talk about another JAWS-related...
-
JAWGUST 2: “This Will Be Our Finest Hour!” (23 of 31)
Happy Sunday, aquatic film enthusiasts! Today is a big day for JAWGUST 2 as it welcomes back the guest who has been on the show more than any other Geek Mentality guest, my long time pal and recent fellow concert-goer, Eric! Today we get a little Brody, some historic quotes, one giant shark, and…
more -
JAWGUST 2: “Chief, You're Not Chief Anymore!” (22 of 31)
Happy Saturday, Sharkys! While yesterday was pretty exciting, today's JAWGUST 2 episode feels like it is the calm before the shark really hits the fan. I recorded today's episode early and outside - but you'll have to listen to know just why! I also talk about an unfortunate news story where a…
more -
JAWGUST 2: “Swim Fast, There's a Shark, Eddie!” (21 of 31)
FINALLY! It wasn't any propeller, it wasn't any coral reef, and it wasn't Jack the Ripper! IT WAS A SHARK! I feel like it's been forever in JAWGUST 2 since we got some good (dare I say great?) shark action! Great for us...not so great for poor Eddie. Also, I touch once again on the brilliance of...
-
JAWGUST 2: “What About Sailing?” (20 of 31)
Sir Christopher Cross said it best when he said "Sailing, Takes me away," because on today's episode of JAWGUST 2 it seems sailing is going to end up taking Tina's boyfriend away...For good! Plus we get to see Chief Brody kick some empties around his yard - neighbors must love him...
-
JAWGUST 2: “Get Us In, For Christ Sake! Get Us In!” (19 of 31)
Happy Wednesday, you holy divers! Today's episode of JAWGUST 2 covered a segment of the movie that was 95% dialogue free - but finally had some shark action in it, even though it was only for a few seconds and could have been - should have been - much more exciting. But again, at least that shark...
-
JAWGUST 2: “Is There Enough Room for All of Us on the Boat?” (18 of 31)
It's Tuesday my fellow sailers, and today in JAWGUST 2, the Amity teens finally set sail for a day of fun and blood! But before I talk about the next (not so) action packed three minutes and forty seconds of JAWS 2, I also take a moment to appreciate the man, the myth, the legend - the great John...
-
JAWGUST 2: “Four Years Down the Drain...” (17 of 31)
Happy Monday fellow Brody supporters! Today for JAWGUST 2, I felt like I found gold. Maybe what I found is already well known (it is mentioned on IMDB) but for me, it felt like I struck oil because I never heard, read or saw any mention of this before noticing it myself. And at the very least - I...
-
JAWGUST 2: “They Only Fired Me, They Didn't Bury Me” (16 of 31)
Happy Sunday Amity Islanders and welcome back to JAWGUST 2. Wait sorry, if you weren't born there you'll never be an islander - and you know what? That might be a good thing, because a lot of these Amity lifers aren't worth the hand they raise to fire good, hard-working, ruggedly handsome police...
-
JAWGUST 2: “I Don't Intend To Go Through That Hell Again!” (15 of 31)
Happy Saturday, bad hat wearers! Today in JAWGUST 2, Brody finally brings what he thinks if photographic proof that Amity is screwed again. Unfortunately for him, it's the people he brings it to that are really dicking around with the town! Today's JAWGUST also features Geek Mentality's very…
more -
JAWGUST 2: “Martin C. Brody - Amity Man of the Year, 1975” (14 of 31)
Happy Friday, fellow degenerate gamblers! After an evening in Connecticut at Foxwoods, I'm back talking more JAWGUST 2 today! Today's segment featured two moments where I think I improved how they could have been utilized in the script, and one moment that enraged me (or at least annoyed me).…
more -
JAWGUST 2: “It's Just Bluefish!” (13 of 31)
Aw Jeez! The Chief's really gone and stepped in it this time, hasn't he!? Today in JAWGUST 2 is not a good day for the Brody family. Martin goes and opens fire on a crowded beach with his illegal poison bullets. Ellen has to deal with the aftermath of embarrassment both at her job and on a…
more -
JAWGUST 2: “Your Husband's Been Here All Morning. What's He Doing? His Job.” (12 of 31)
Happy Price Spaghetti Day, you beach combers! Today for JAWGUST 2 we head back to the beach, where we get an angry Mayor, a nervous Chief, and an 80-second montage that rivals Baywatch (but not Baywatch Nights. Nothing rivals that). And besides this 3-minutes and 40 seconds, absolutely nothing…
more -
JAWGUST 2: “We're Pretty Sure it was the Woman Aboard the Boat” (11 of 31)
Happy Tuesday, fellow cinema enthusiasts! Today in JAWGUST 2 I talk about Brody making deadly and most likely illegal ammunition, I question the validity of the town coroner, and I spend too much time enjoying the Michael and Sean's video game system. I also talk about my day up in Boothbay…
more -
JAWGUST 2: “Are You Serious?” (10 of 31)
It's Funday Monday! Another week of JAWGUST 2 is upon us! Today we reach the point of JAWS 2 where Mayor Vaughn just heard Brody's suspicion of there being another shark - and naturally his first inkling is to not believe him, disregard him, and ask him to drop it. That worked out so well last...
-
JAWGUST 2: “I Think We May Have Another Shark Problem” (9 of 31)
Happy Sunday, bite radius experts! I am back from my weekend away visiting family and here with you for another Sunday night of JAWGUST 2! Brody is really starting to think Amity has another shark problem, so much so that he brings his thoughts to the only man nobody should trust - Larry Vaughn!...
-
JAWGUST 2: “I Hear the Bites are Big. Really Big.” (8 of 31)
Happy Saturday, boat freaks! Whilst I am having a whale of a time visiting family this weekend, today on JAWGUST 2, Chief Brody is starting to get a little nervous, we meet a doctor who I bet producers which was someone else, and also, I am starting to understand why this was the Michael Brody...
-
JAWGUST 2: “One Minute They Were Having a Wonderful Time, and The Next...” (7 of 31)
Happy Friday, Jawgustians! Even though I'm away for the weekend, you didn't think I'd forget about JAWGUST 2 did you? Today we saw the other half of the famous (infamous) waterskiing scene - so i figured I would include that juicy fruit commercial one more time. Nothing wrong with a little...
-
JAWGUST 2: “Let's Go Waterskiing!” (6 of 31)
Happy Thursday, fellow JAWS a-fin-ionados! Okay, looking back at that last sentence I'm not too proud of that pun in written form - but when I say it out loud it's fairly tremendous. It's day six of of JAWGUST 2 and today, even though barely anything was said - we get what is arguably the most...
-
JAWGUST 2: “If You Had a $100,000 Boat, There'd Be an Investigation!” (5 of 31)
Happy Wednesday, Sharkheads! Day five of of JAWGUST 2 and today I talk a little more in depth about how Roy Scheider didn't really want to do this movie, but contracts and money have a way of changing minds. I mention a Daily Jaws blog post that talks about this more. I also talk a little more...
-
JAWGUST 2: “Who's That? I Think I'm in Love.” (4 of 31)
Today my friends, is a very special day of JAWGUST 2. Not because of anything to do with this movie or this podcast - but because I'm f***ing 50 today! How is that possible that someone with my youthful exuberance can be so old? It's kinda gross. But I like to think I make gross look good - and...
-
JAWGUST 2: “Helluva Speech, Larry!” (3 of 31)
I'm only three days into JAWGUST 2 and already, I'm sensing that Amity is back to it's corrupt ways. It's not everybody in town - obviously the good Chief Brody is heroic and a class act as always (I mean that whole catcalling yesterday was just um...just harmless fun). And Ellen is just trying…
more -
JAWGUST 2: “The Chief is Late for the Holiday Inn Amity Shores Grand Opening Ball” (2 of 31)
Fear not, JAWGUST fans! Chief Brody is still running things in Amity - even if Amity looks more Floridian than ever before! He's late for the Holiday Inn Amity Shores opening, which apparently is a big deal to Ellen - but he makes it in time to cat call a teenage girl in a bathin suit. We also…
more -
JAWGUST 2: “Just When You Thought It Was Safe To Go Back In The Water!” (1 of 31)
HAPPY JAWGUST EVERYBODY! Yes, your favorite JAWS themed month of podcasting is finally back! I'm sorry it took so long - but that's how calendars work. Yes, as you may have already figured out - this year we are talking about all things JAWS 2 as we discuss 3 minutes and 40 seconds of JAWS 2…
more -
Supergirl : Movie Month (30 of 30)
And here we are, once again. The final day of Movie Month. Today marks the 390th overall movie and the 330th podcast of my favorite podcast project of the year! Today I went back to the theater one last time to see the latest DC Studios release, Supergirl. Despite some opinions and smaller than...
-
Project Hail Mary : Movie Month (29 of 30)
Finally. Finally. Finally. This movie eluded me in the theater. I just couldn't find the time to get out and see it. My wife even saw it with her students on a field trip - but I never got out to see it. Until today. I read Project Hail Mary last year and it was probably (not probably) my…
more -
Jurassic World Rebirth : Movie Month (28 of 30)
Remember when seeing Dinosaur's in a movie was breathtaking? Decades go by, visual effects get better, and sequels and reboots keep those dinosaurs coming - but nothing can come close to the magic of the original. That being said, I have watched every Jurassic World movie as part of Movie Month,...
-
Wake Up Dead Man : Movie Month (27 of 30)
Is there anything more fun than a good murder? Wait, I mean murder mystery!! Yes obviously I am talking about a fictitious murder, not like all those true crime docs and podcasts out there. Nope, this is the real fun. The real - fake - fun. Once again, Rian Johnson delivers a movie that I just...
-
Predator: Killer of Killers : Movie Month (26 of 30)
On this final Friday of Movie Month, I decided to go back into the Predator world - one of two Predator movies that Dan Trachtenberg directed in 2025. That other one will have to wait until next year, but this one - what a fun, bad-ass, gorgeous looking animated film! Glad I decided to include…
more -
Frankenstein : Movie Month (25 of 30)
FEED MY FRANKENSTEIN! I was fully prepared to use this Alice Cooper song as part of my episode – but the movie was just too good for me to add any more silliness to my show than it already has. I pretty much loved this movie and glad I waited for Movie Month to watch and discuss it. Always great…
more -
Final Destination 5 : Movie Month (24 of 30)
For Day 24, I decided go back one FINAL time this Movie Month into the Final Destination series - and boy am I glad I did. This one was way better than the last one - and that ending! I am so glad I wasn't spoiled on a 15 year old movie's twist nor did I read the first paragraph of the movie's...
-
Marty Supreme : Movie Month (23 of 30)
If you told me there was a 150-minute movie about a borderline (or maybe not even borderline) unlikable table tennis player hustling his way through life to try to be the best player in the world - I would not expect to have had as enjoyable a time as I did watching this Marty Supreme. Is…
more -
The Equalizer 3 : Movie Month (22 of 30)
For the third time in three years, I have been EQUALIZED! Did I just complete the trilogy? Or am I just in the middle of what might be a longer series!? Either way, I'm here for it. Was this movie great? No. Was this maybe the weakest of the three? Probably. Do I care? Nope. I could watch Denzel…
more -
Minority Report : Movie Month (21 of 30)
Welcome back to "Sundays with Steven" as today I decided to go back into the Spielberg world and back into the Tom Cruise world as well - for the 10th time! Today I finally went back the future as I went back to 2002 to jump ahead to the 2050s and watch the action/crime/sci-fi film, Minority...
-
Underworld : Movie Month (20 of 30)
If you like the Matrix, but wish there were vampires and werewolves fighting instead - but still using guns - then do I have the movie for you. I waited 23 years to finally watch Underworld for the first time. I am not even sure if I want to go on with the series. Underworld - more like...
-
Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice : Movie Month (19 of 30)
I wanted a light, fun movie tonight after watching a couple of downers in a row - and this action/comedy/time-travel movie hit all the right beats. Did I love all the logic of how the time travel worked? Nope. Does it matter because time travel is not real? Nope. There was some fun time travel...
-
The Proposition : Movie Month (18 of 30)
Aussie Aussie Aussie, Oi Oi Oi! You've heard of Christmas in July, right? Well today is my annual ChrisMo in June, as my Fine Movies. Fine Spirits. co-host Chris joins the show and once again picks a movie for ol' Mikey. Today Chris brought me a 2005 Australian Western that, speaking of…

The Long Walk : Movie Month (17 of 30)
I love a good walk. Who doesn’t? But it turns out I love a bad walk too! I really, really enjoyed this movie. Even with the depressing story set in this desolate world (that we’re probably 5 years away from) the the characters shined through the darkness to make this movie stick with me. The two...
-
Now You See Me 2 : Movie Month (16 of 30)
Almost a year ago to the day, I watched the original "Now You See Me," and after watching this one today I feel much the same as I did last year. These are not good movies. These are not logical movies. These are somewhat dumb movies masquerading as clever movies. And yet....I am enjoying them. I...
-
Smile : Movie Month (15 of 30)
Smiling is my favorite! Smiling is a good thing. But much like anything else, I guess too much of a good thing can be bad for you - especially if there is some evil curse involved! Today's movie was not too much of a good thing at all - it was the right amount of a "scary WTF thing" that made me...
-
Disclosure Day : Movie Month (14 of 30)
Every so often I end up in the theater for Movie Month, and today - this morning in fact - was one of those days. I wasn't there for a sequel or a movie that expands upon a cinematic universe. I was there seeing a wholly original film and I was there because of one reason - two words - Steven...
-
Terrifier : Movie Month (13 of 30)
Well. I finally watched it. I've been hearing about this movie, this series, that villain for years - and tonight waded into the deep end to see the 2016 (2018) horror film, Terrifier. Overall the movie as a whole was okay - but it was Art the Clown himself that turned this low budget gore-fest...
