Bubble Gum Cult

Join Reverend Matt Keyser and Quintin Marcelino's weekly meetings and listen to them discuss the latest (and not-so-latest) films, television and games.

The Dionne Warwick Stunt Spectacular! 06/10/2017

The Dionne Warwick Stunt Spectacular! This week, Matt and Quintin retreat back to the bunker to chat about Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt Season 3. Matt also talks about watching the first season of the Tracey Wigfield created/Tina Fey produced new show, Great News. It's a short one, and somewhat rambling, but that's what happens when you get all your information from packages of government butter! /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/5435409

Covfefe Means Coagula 06/03/2017

Covfefe Means Coagula This week, Matt lets Quintin rant and rave about Jordan Peele's directorial debut Get Out for about an hour. Eventually, they escape the Sunken Place and talk about Logan, Hugh Jackman's last stand as Wolverine. You know, because those are two films that are totally related in, like, a completely untenuous and not-at-all forced way! In case it wasn't obvious, there are a whole bunch of spoilers for both movies, so check them out before you listen. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/5414751

Nostalgia Kill Screen Coming Up, If You Wanna Hear 05/29/2017

Nostalgia Kill Screen Coming Up, If You Wanna Hear This week, Matt and Quintin finally make good on their promise/threat and talk about Ernest Cline's debut novel, Ready Player One. So boot up your console, get your haptic gear on and get ready to listen to listen to Matt purge six months of cached rage (and possibly hear Quintin audibly shrug). /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/5399537

The Face of a Man with Opinions About Disney Rides 05/20/2017

The Face of a Man with Opinions About Disney Rides This week, Matt has a whole bunch of opinions about the Walt Disney World Resort. He's taking umbrage with a blog that decided to rank every attraction in the parks and takes Quintin along for the ride! So wait in the download queue and hop on board to hear two grown-ass men talk about amusement park rides and complain about a semi-anonymous person on the internet! So not much different than a normal show, really. The Post that Inspired the Podcast: /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/5374187

Blah Blah Blahdians of the Galaxy 05/10/2017

Blah Blah Blahdians of the Galaxy This week, Matt and Quintin are doing something nobody on the internet has done at all: they have a conversation about Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. That's right, the obscure independent movie by scrappy upstart Marvel Studios starring virtual unknowns like Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Bradley Cooper, Vin Diesel and Kurt Russell! You'll find out who all of these nobodies are (and more) if you listen! Somehow, despite claiming they don't have much to say about the subject, our hosts managed to talk for an entire hour about Star Lording and Grooting in and around the galaxy. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/5345285

A Rough One About 13 Reasons Why 05/06/2017

A Rough One About 13 Reasons Why This week, Matt and Quintin talk about the new-ish Netflix show Thirteen Reasons Why, based of the YA novel by Jay Asher. And hoo boy, oof, this one was a doozy. The show tackles some incredibly serious issues like bullying, abuse, rape and suicide. As you can imagine, it's not your usual light and fun episode of the podcast, but we figured it was worth talking about. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/5332292

Tales from the Garbage Pail 04/24/2017

Tales from the Garbage Pail This week, Matt and Quintin tap into their inner creepy, disgusting kid monsters and talk about Topps trading card properties that were turned into movies. All two of them! First up, the 1996 Tim Burton cult classic Mars Attacks! And to be completionists, they also take out the trash and talk about 1988's absolutely insane The Garbage Pail Kids Movie. So crack open this podcast pack, look over your checklist and hope for some rares. All that's missing is a stale piece of gum that tastes like sugary cardboard! /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/5292642

We're Back! A Star Wars Story 04/15/2017

We're Back! A Star Wars Story We're back after a three month absence to talk about the hot new, three-month old release Rogue One: A Star Wars Story! Matt has some grievances while Quintin is ready to parry with retorts like a Guardian of the Whills. Papa Erso would be so proud of his little Stardusts! /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/5269223

Stuff N Things 2016 01/07/2017

Stuff N Things 2016 After a several month absence, Matt and Quintin are back with Stuff...'N Things! They start out the new year and by running down their top 7 things of the previous 12 months, from movies to music, games to TV. 2016 wasn't ALL bad, so let's focus on the positive, before we crawl back into our podcast hole for another few months! /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4971822

Living in a Virtual World and We Are Virtual Boys 10/20/2016

Living in a Virtual World and We Are Virtual Boys This week, Matt and Quintin log on, jack-in and attempt to hack the Gibson with PlayStation VR! They talk about what they like about virtual reality, potential pitfalls of the future (not Pitfall VR but c'mon Activision get on it) and where they think games are going. They also played some games like Battlzeone, Batman: Arkham VR, Thumper, The London Heist and Job Simulator! Just remember, it will be "virtually" impossible to count the number times Quintin brings up Neuromancer and William Gibson! /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4760086

I Mildly Like Cult 09/09/2016

I Mildly Like Cult This week, Matt and Quintin are ready for Pilot Season! But what's this? Television is a confusing term that doesn't mean what it used to and they're talking about television shows premiering on Amazon dot com? Jean-Claude Van Damme's Jean-Claude Van Johnson, The Tick with Peter Serafinowicz, and I Love Dick, starring Kathryn Hahn and Kevin Bacon are all discussed! They also talk about those traditional shows that appear magically on that picture rectangle in their dens they're excited are returning. This is the future? This is a garbage future! Where are my robot cowboys? Oh, they're in Westworld this Fall on the HBO? Oh, OK. I take back everything I said. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4655777

Harry Potter and the Curse of the Rubber Stamp FanFiction 09/01/2016

Harry Potter and the Curse of the Rubber Stamp FanFiction This week, two superfan muggles waltz into a world of magical stage effects, thin character motivation and gaping plot holes! Put on the Sorting Hat and join House Bubblegum Cult as we discuss whether Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is a cheap cash-in or JK Rowling Lucas-ing it. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4635462

Nacho Sky 08/25/2016

Nacho Sky This week, Matt and Quintin blast off into HYPE-ER SPACE and land on the planet Mismanaged Expectations to talk about No Man's Sky, the eagerly awaited new galactic exploration simulation by Hello Games. They talk about what they like, what they don't like, and contemplate the vast emptiness of space and how that makes them feel and oh god I'm going to die someday and never experience everything what have I done with my life!? /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4617741

Hashtag Squad LOLs 08/11/2016

Hashtag Squad LOLs This week, Matt and Quintin commit the crime of pinning their hopes on a DC Comics movie adaptation and watch Guardians of the Galaxy. Wait, I'm sorry. I meant the new Will Smith/Margot Robbie film Focus: Part 2. Nope, that wasn't it. Oh, right, Suicide Squad. That's the one. They can definitely say it is the best of the new DCEU movies, but as anyone who has seen Man of Steel and Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice could tell you, that doesn't count for a whole lot. It's also slightly better than receiving a package containing a dead rat from Jared Leto! /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4585058

Refreshing Like an Ecto-Cooler on a Warm Summer Evening 07/20/2016

Refreshing Like an Ecto-Cooler on a Warm Summer Evening This week, remakes happen, someone's gotta deal with it, and who ya gonna' call? Matt and Quintin, who just so happened to watch the new, Paul Feig directed Ghostbusters film? That's probably a mistake. Quintin talks about shooting ping pong balls at the Scoleri Brothers, Matt talks about his crushes on some of the Ghostbusters, and then they get down to business and talk about the movie. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4530439

GO back INSIDE 07/14/2016

GO back INSIDE This week, Matt and Quintin stay INSIDE. Well, mentally, because when they weren't dodging soulless husks in Playdead's new puzzle platformer, they wandered outside to dodge soulless husks in the real world and catch some pocket monsters in Pokèmon GO! You gotta catch 'em all while avoiding the harrowing reality that is modernity! Existential Crisis, GO! /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4515220

Misery & Modesty & MySpace 06/23/2016

Misery & Modesty & MySpace This week, it's all about navigating the social scene of your teenage years...without getting murdered by monsters! Matt and Quintin sit down and massively spoil Pride & Prejudice & Zombies and Unfriended, two horror movies about being a teen and dealing with life, love and the dead. Come for two old men complaining about teens, stay for two old men being completely out of touch with not just this century, but the previous two as well! Also, for scares. You can stay for those too. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4465149

The Cult of the Electronic 3 06/17/2016

The Cult of the Electronic 3 It's the most wonderful time of the year for video game news: the Electronic Entertainment Expo, or E3 for those who like cool abbreviations. Matt and Quintin give their impressions and "expert opinions" on the big news and press conferences from Sony, Microsoft and the other game publishers. In the true spirit of the game industry, come listen, then tell them how they're garbage people who don't deserve to live because they're really bad at Call of Duty! /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4451094

The Sophomore Slump and the Junior Juggle 06/02/2016

The Sophomore Slump and the Junior Juggle This week, Matt and Quintin talk about the Sophomore Slump, that second movie, season, album or game that just can't live up the the precedent of the original (think Jan de Bont's second film Twister, or the second seasons Serial and True Detective. Matt also introduces the idea of the Junior Juggle, third attempts that also fall woefully short. Before you ask, no, the second season of Bubble Gum Cult wasn't listed, you jerks. I'm sorry, I didn't mean that, it's just tough to make stuff, you know? We tried to do something different and we failed. Look, we'll just make the first thing again and put it on a boat next time! /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4414408

To Infinity, and Beyond...THE GRAVE! 05/19/2016

To Infinity, and Beyond...THE GRAVE! This week, Matt and Quintin eulogize the recently canceled video game, Disney Infinity. Come for two grown men talking about toys, video games and Disney princesses being overpowered compared to Marvel superheroes. Stay to hear Matt's Disney impressions. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4380705

We Call It the War of Marvel Aggression 05/12/2016

We Call It the War of Marvel Aggression This week, Matt and Quintin have seen Disney's Marvel's Captain America: Civil War, and they're here to spoil the hell out of it (seriously everyone, Spoiler Warning). Marvel as they talk about Captain America! Laugh along as they recount Spectacular Spider-Man jokes! Behold the majesty of the Black Panther along with your friends! With almost everyone getting a cameo, it's a shock the Cult's resident superheroes, Captain Complainer and Half-Black Widow(Man) didn't show up! Maybe they'll get their chance to shine in Infinity War: Part 1. Until then, enjoy the show, True Believers! /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4364630

Chillin' Out, PAXin', Eastin' All Cool 04/28/2016

Chillin' Out, PAXin', Eastin' All Cool Back from their long break, Matt and Quintin went to PAX East /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4328985

The Monsters are Due on Cloverfield Lane 03/17/2016

The Monsters are Due on Cloverfield Lane Matt returns this week to get locked in a bunker with Quintin for an entire hour and talk about 10 Cloverfield Lane! Warning: the movie gets spoiled pretty early in the episode, so that's no reason to put them back in the bunker. Please...we don't want to go back in the bunker. Not because we didn't like the JJ Abrams produced/Dan Trachtenberg directed/John Goodman, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and John Gallagher Jr. starring movie, but because we're tired of eating Goldfish. There's a lot of sodium involved with the end of the world. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4228504

Whatever Happened to Mr. Zeddemore? 03/05/2016

Whatever Happened to Mr. Zeddemore? In the Bubble Gum Cult's first solo podcast, Quintin asks the question on everyone's mind this week: Whatever Happened to Mr. Zeddemore. That's Winston Zeddemore, Ghostbuster extraordinaire. In the wake of the release of the new Ghostbusters trailer, he reflects on the internet's skepticism and outrage about female 'busters and how Ghostbusters shaped his view of the world. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4197459

If a Deadpool Is On Fire in the Woods Does It Make a Sound? 02/18/2016

If a Deadpool Is On Fire in the Woods Does It Make a Sound? This week it's all about the Merc with a Mouth and the Firewatch...guy...with...a mouth, too? Matt and Quintin talk about the new Fox Marvel movie Deadpool, starring Ryan Reynolds. They've also played Firewatch, the new video game by Campo Santo, about a guy who likes to watch...FOR FIRES! Also it's about relationships and stuff. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4158015

Super Turbo Bowl: Advertisement Edition 02/11/2016

Super Turbo Bowl: Advertisement Edition What do Puppy Monkey Baby, Irritable Bowel Syndrome and a girl robot named Apple have in common? Absolutely nothing! Well, except for this podcast. This week, Matt and Quintin are back with a new genre-busting double feature! First up, they chat about their favorite and least favorite Super Bowl ads. Then, they travel back in time to post apocalyptic 1997 to talk about the cult movie Turbo Kid (the discussion is filled to the brim with spoilers, so check out the movie before listening). This podcast was approved by the FDA and is wholly endorsed by a cartoon intestine that loves football. How can you pass it up? /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4142868

Witness Me! (But Not On a TV) 02/04/2016

Witness Me! (But Not On a TV) After a week break, Matt and Quintin are back with two great tastes that don't really taste great together, but they needed to fill out an entire show! The first segment is about movies they think everyone should see in a theater. In the second segment, they talk about the fury and triumph in the new indie puzzle game The Witness (with some Spoilers about several sections of the game). So get in line, then draw a line to download this podcast! No, that wasn't the right line. No, not that either. You have to...no, you're not listening to me. Up three squares, over two, down four, now...you know what, don't bother. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4125864

The Lesser Dog Days Are Over 01/21/2016

The Lesser Dog Days Are Over This week on Bubble Gum Cult, listeners encounter a wild Reverend Matt and a Sleepy Quintin, and they're here to talk to you about the indie videogame darling Undertale! They tell tales of their encounters with Sans, Papyrus, Undyne, Lesser Dog, Greater Dog and the rest of the gang in this quirky RPG. Seeing that two idiots can somehow form full sentences and publish a podcast fills you with determination! /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4094588

Hateful Eightorade 01/15/2016

Hateful Eightorade Everyone's a villain this week. Matt and Quintin have seen the 8th film by Quentin Tarantino, the Hateful Eight. They didn't really like it! So they talk about what bugged them about the movie and end up chatting a whole lot about what they loved about Tarantino's other films. An episode so filled with hate you'd think it was another show about the Walking Dead! /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4079590

AKA a Podcast About Jessica Jones 01/07/2016

AKA a Podcast About Jessica Jones This week, Matt and Quintin talk about the Netflix Original Series (based on some Marvel comics so maybe not THAT original) Jessica Jones, starring Krysten Ritter and David Tennant. They also spoil the hell out of it, so you should probably check it out before listening. If we had Kilgrave's powers, we'd command you to listen! But, if you're reading this description, you are probably already listening, once again proving we'd make the worst super villains. /episode/index/show/bubblegumcult/id/4060506
