Episode 172: How I Met Your The Scope Show: Nerd Roundtable Edition

In the 172th edition of The Scope, Jared, Adam, and Shane return to the old, reliable Nerd Roundtable. This time around, they debate the ego of James Fallon, the ending for Ted Mosby, and they discuss some cool video games you probably should be playing. All in all, it’s very appropriate content for a podcast/vidcast of this nature.

So stop being angry about HIMYM ending (poorly?) and get to downloading this podcast. After downloading, you should probably listen to it, too. That’s what Adam would want you to do.

The Scope episode 172 would take a more low-key approach to its late night talk show.

Episode 171: Shane And The Case of The Worst Nacho Eaters On Planet Earth

In this edition of The Scope, Shane monopolizes most of the show with tales of his spring break family vacation in sunny Cozumel. He does his best to entertain Jared and Adam with stories of crazy cab rides, airplane seats reclined all the way back, and fending off ravenous barracudas while snorkeling with his daughter. He might even talk trash about fellow mid-western travelers.

So, put on your poncho and sombrero and prepare yourself for the most south of the border installment of The Scope ever!

The Scope episode 171 will never ever “Drink Wisconsinably.” Or wear a t-shirt with that phrase on it.

Episode 170: Grape Leaves, Bee Stings, and Goonies 2: Electric Goonaloo

After an extra week off for Spring Break!!! your Scope hosts return refreshed, rejuvenated, and relaxed. This episode, Jared, Adam, and Shane tackle all of the latest breaking news headlines, offering commentary and insight when applicable.

And they do some pretty solid bee work.

The Scope episode 170 kinda misses the Judge Ito Dancers.

Under The Scope | Movie Review: Captain America: The Winter Soldier

The Marvel Cinematic Universe rolls on with the game-changing Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Steve Rogers is back, along with Black Widow and newcomer Falcon. But something isn’t right with SHIELD, and ol’ Cap and the gang have to get to the bottom of it. It’s a madcap tale of political intrigue and conspiracy.

The Scope Captain America: The Winter Soldier review always keeps the second eye on file.

Episode 169: Rank ‘Em, The Scope’s Latest Game Show Sensation!

This week’s Scope show brings a brand new game to the mix. Your favorite three podcasting hosts ever have to rank and debate three items. (That’s a lot of threes, no?) Of course, hilarity ensues. What do you take us for, rank amateurs?

If that weren’t enough, Jared, Adam, and Shane discuss (in no particular order) Pink Eye Joe, Mexican cartel nicknames, Hans Olo, and the “power” of Saved By The Bell.

169 has all the makings of an epic show. You’d be a dummyhead if you didn’t listen and/or watch. So get to it.

The Scope Episode 169 can hear the feta.

Under The Scope | Movie Review: The Grand Budapest Hotel

It’s no secret that The Scope loves Wes Anderson movies. All of the quirky charm found in his body of work is enough to melt the heart of any cold, emotionless podcaster.

So it is the Scope’s pleasure to present a review of Anderson’s latest, The Grand Budapest Hotel. It’s a complicated tale within a tale within a tale within a tale, starring a dude you really want to call Ralph (as well as almost every other actor ever featured in Anderson’s films.) The plot takes place in four different time periods…and it’s about a hotel.
More or less.

But that’s all you need to know. Just do us a favor and listen to (or watch) Jared and Shane talk about this fascinating film. You won’t be disappointed.

The Scope The Grand Budapest Hotel review would make a poor lobby boy.

Episode 168: The Nerd Roundtable Returns (The Britney Spear Edition)

Episode 168 of The Scope brings the heat with another exciting installment of The Nerd Roundtable. This time around, the guys battle over Titanfall, the terrible Minnesota weather, MarsCON hotels, and True Detective. We’ll let you decide which topics may or may not qualify as nerdy. (But if you say weather, Shane may adjust your barometric pressure.)

So get to watching, listening, or downloading for later. 168 is so worth it, Scopers. So worth it.

The Scope episode 168 attempts some serious wire work.

Under The Scope | Movie Review: Bad Words

Not even the eternal winter cold could keep Jared and Shane away from another Under The Scope movie review. This time around, your hosts tackle Jason Bateman’s Bad Words, a film in which he was both the director and the star. If you can’t say anything nice…

To find out more about this disappointing movie and an equally bizarre screening experience (who thought a stand-up comedian was needed to prime the audience?) The Scope demands you download AND watch this immediately. While it might not be as important as, let’s say, the reboot of Heroes, it’s right up there.

The Scope Bad Words review wouldn’t waste Allison Janney’s talents.

Episode 167: Bible-Bumpin’, Blast-Processin’ Bitches

The Scope is back for its 167th edition with a pledge to focus on tons more ugnaught coverage. If little pig men from Star Wars aren’t your cup to tea, Jared, Adam, and Shane dig into all the latest news headlines from across the land. Yes, that means tons of Noah and Praystation talk.

Really, it’s everything you’d ask for from an entertaining podcast, without the burden of entertainment.

The Scope episode 167 activates news thrusters like a boss.

Episode 166: 2014 Oscar Predictions

Well, it’s that time of year again…when Hollywood feels the need to pat itself on the back and your Scope hosts feel the need to feed the beast, so to speak. Yes, that means Jared, Adam, and Shane are back to their old Oscar predicting tricks.

After a particularly difficult 2013 contest, can your Scope hosts bounce back with insightful selections? There’s only one way you’ll ever find out. Digest the show in whatever format suits you. Then you’ll know the truth. And it will set you (and Jonah Hill) free.

The Scope episode 166 is alright alright.
