This week, we welcome back musician Beau Tyler! We check out the trailer for Dreamin’ Wild and Five Night’s at Freddie’s. We discuss the highs and pitfalls of introducing people to new music. Plus, loving or hating disco, and new facts about the 1989 movie The Wizard. Also, we really like Beau Bridges, but not the Pogo Ball. Oh, and there’s a new Superman and Lois.
This week, we sit down with actor and musician Jacob W. Campos! We start with a little world news, as militants launch a coup in Russia. Then, we pivot hard to Super Mario Bros. Wonder, the latest side-scroller from Nintendo. Then, it’s Hodl Time, with the trailer for the GameStop stonks movie, Dumb Money!

This week, we’re joined by CR Parsons and Kevin Price, to talk about…. so much.

These guys have a ton going on. We check out trailers for Expendables 4 and Elio, and chat about cancel culture, scammers, soccer flops, Casa Bonita and more. Plus, some of the best eats in Tulsa and beyond....
This week, we’re joined by humorist Matt Gallagher, to talk about his parenting blog Inessential Reading. We have a big ole Trailer Train, as we check out trailers for Barbie, Justice League: WarWorld, The Meg 2, and some random Tom Cruise flick. We also look back on kids cartoons from the 80s and discuss which ones hold up (you’re not gonna like the answer.) Also, anyone remember “Dinosaucers”?
This week, we’re thrilled to have Yung Master Jules and King Castro X from the Comic Khan’s Podcast on the show! We talk about upcoming films Killers of the Flowers Moon and Five Nights at Freddie’s.

Oh, plus, an unexpected behind-the-...

Friend of the show Lacy Applegate is back this week, to talk Charles Entertainment Cheese, Gremlins, booking comedy shows, and more. We check out trailers for Secrets of the Mogwai and Secret Invasion, on this very secretive episode. It's not secretive, I don't know why I said that. Also, HBO Max changing its name to just Max is the dumbest idea ever.
Sondra Slade is here this week! We talk about Watergate, Motley Crue, and plenty of Star Wars. Also, Hilton educates everyone about Ahsoka Tano.
Which Winnie the Pooh characters are inspired by drugs, and which ones are clearly porn? That’s probably not what reporter and anchor Rick Maranon expected to talk about on his return to OLA this week. He joins us in our stories of estate sale finds, abuse of power, and Oktoberfest. Then, we talk about movies like Quasi and Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers and Big Shark. One we liked, one we’re not sure if it’s real, and one is the Power Rangers movie. Also, what exactly is a hap?...
Someone put Chad Smith in a movie! That’s our decree this week, as we’re joined by comedian Jeremy Beck! We talk to Jeremy about his time performing stand-up, as well as his new novel Beyond the Break, which is available on Amazon right now! Together, we learn about the intricacies of the Red Hot Chili Pepper Cinematic Universe, united by the on screen performances of Anthony Keidis and Flea. After that, it gets weird.

We check out the trailers for “The Lake” and “Chupa,” and have mixed feelings on both. We also look at the changes happening at your local theater, and how season ticket holders are responding. Plus: The amazing adorable raccoon dog! And did you know there’s a new Chemical Brothers track? Also, TikTok i...

We talk about the controversy surounding the upcoming Peter Pan & Wendy, and who we remember from the trailer for Haunted Mansion. Plus, Merrick Garland is really into Taylor Swift, and we get a surprising amount of content from that. Also, weird ass Rudy Giuliani, and Mexican Coke!...
Jon Stringer is back, this time with wife Joanna Stringer, but without his voice! Jon manages to rasp his way through the episode as we talk about the absurdity of the Fast and Furious franchise. Then, we debate the merits of Demolition Man's 3 seashells, why Phil Collins wants to own the Alamo, and whether you can be a comedian without being an attention seeker. All this, and showing our buttholes to God. Come hang out with us!

Sam also shares some of his film critic philosophy, and shares a little of what we can expect from his new Season, which kicks off Monday! Che...
This week, we’re thrilled to chat with the creator of Strawberry Shortcake, the Get-Along Gang, and the Care Bears, Muriel Fahrion! Muriel has been making her mark in Oklahoma, with her own art studio, and lots of time spent supporting the arts in Tulsa, often alongside her pal and ours, Evan Hughes! We talk about Muriel’s time working on iconic characters, how she established herself in Oklahoma, and how she’s using her creative talent to bring joy to others. Be sure to check out her website ww...
Binge with Terrell Norton is now on OLAMinistries.com, so Terrell Norton came by OLA to hang out! We listen to prog rock Zelda and the sounds of dial-up Internet, discuss the classic tropes (and hiding spots) of pornography, and marvel at the power of the phrase "30 more minutes." There's also some Dave Bautista, a little Laurence Fishburne, and definitely some Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur. Some Letterkenny, some Shoresy, and plenty of other binge-worthy TV shows. Oh, and the difference bet...
Tulsa’s Gothic Cowboy comedian, Jesse Willett, is in the hot seat this week! We talk about the appropriate length for comedy shows, why celebrities come to Tulsa, and whether virtue signaling is as bad as it seems. But that’s not all! We also talk about the appropriate length for movies, changes in creative communities, and the surprising screenwriting career of Nick Cave! Plus, the wonder and charm of Bloodsport, and the mystery and mild racism of Black Rain. Also, Tom Hardy!...
Cam Porter is back for this mega episode! Cam's new store Critical Hit Gaming will open in just a few weeks, so we've got him in the hot seat while we still can! We check out trailers for Ant-man and the Wasp: Quantumania, and finally talk about! We're also psyched for Evil Dead Rise (except Hilton, who's too bust being scared) and ready to have the Super Mario Movie on a loop when it's available to stream. Speaking of Mario, Hilton says he's been saying it right the whole time, until we realize...
This week, we sit down with artist Zach Raw to talk about the hype over his "Waffle Warrior" inspired by the viral video where a Waffle House waitress pulls some Street Fighter moves on a mid-air chair! We catch up on some of Zach's other projects, like the music video "Descendants" for Fire in Little Africa, and discuss proper etiquette for requesting commission work (there really isn't any, just be cool.) Plus, comics, anime, music, and even a little wrestling. And probably an a-hole...
Brett and Hannah are back for Episode 251, where we agree some Kevins suck. We say goodbye to the CU podcast, and harass a racist on Facebook. Then, we talk about new horror movie Skinamarink before learning we need to save the new Garfield movie from Chris Pratt. Then, we learned Garfield has a strip about dog cum, and now nothing is certain. Also, Chet Hanks!
For landmark episode 250, we’re embracing technology and talking to the hilarious Jon Stringer over the internet from his home in Kansas! Jon and the guys talk about his ongoing project renovating an old church into a home, and his adventures telling jokes on the high seas on the cruise ship circuit! He’s also got some “land gigs” and we touch on those, as well as the superpower of a good relationship, the challenges and evolution of social media, and why you can just add more letter Rs to every...
The Tulsa King is no match for the King of Tulsa! We're chatting with Evan Hughes this week, so that means asking about the impact of his social media blessings, and his ability to move between Tulsa's various creative communities with ease. We're also talking punk music, Transformers, and the Immortal Hulk, (but Hulk Hogan, screw that guy.) Plus, we're mentioning lots of local businesses for your last minute holiday shopping! Come hang out!
Can the legendary adventurer survive his greatest challenge yet? That's the question as the guys welcome Johnny Polygon and Jimmi Joe (Jimmi Joe & the Funk Chariot Allstars) to the studio to talk about their latest projects. We're checking out trailers for the new Guardians and Indiana Jones movies, but neither one has half as much potential as Cocaine Bear. We're also thinking about the 90s and choosing our favorite year. Plus, can you be too famous? The answer is yes, it is very much yes....
On this very special early release of OLA, the guys sit down with musician Sarah Frick to talk about her new band Fleure, and her other band, Golden Ones (which we already adore), as well as her venture into vintage resale with her online shop Polly Hester, and this weekend’s Time Travelers Vintage Expo. We check out trailers for That 90s Show (Is this necessary?) and The Super Mario Bros. Movie (THIS IS NECESSARY.) We also dive into some Internet hidden gems, reminisce about the wave of lady-le...
This week, rapper Alan Doyle sits down with the guys, and right out the gate we’re debating the merits of CDs and Scary Movies 2-5. Then, it’s all the blood and honey you can handle, as Winnie the Pooh gets a horror movie. We’re also checking out some shows on streaming, and getting a deal in the process. Also, Alan is less steps removed from the Tiger King than you might think. Also, 90s comedy films were weird. It’s Opinion Like A-holes! Woooo!
This week, the guys welcome back CR Parsons for his fourth appearance! Just one more to get the gold (green?) jacket! The guys check in on CR’s myriad of activities, from comedy to music to lawyerin’ to helping run Oktoberfest to more! They check out trailers for Elemental (Looks cool!) and 80 for Brady (Looks lame!) before touching on the length of modern franchises, whether the band Live was any good, and what it takes to make (or break) a fun telephone hotline! It’s an episode for everyone, b...
