(Generic Live Show!) Generic Live Show #18 - Over Consumption For The Win

Tonight on GLS, we analyze the AOL restructure which led to axing key sales staff and the shut down of popular video game journalism websites as a result. This leads to a wider conversation about media choices in 2015 and how they have evolved since the inception of these outlets that have shut down. All this and other geeky headlines coming up on the show!

(Terrible Tuesday Movie Night) Terrible Tuesday Movie Night: Episode 38: "Mansome"

On this episode of Terrible Tuesday Movie Night, Dale analyses what it really takes to be a man, through the eyes of a Morgan Spurlock documentary and an all star cast from 2012.

In the age of manscaping, metrosexuals, and grooming products galore - what does it mean to be a man? Oscar nominee Morgan Spurlock and executive producers Ben Silverman, Will Arnett, and Jason Bateman present a delightfully entertaining doc featuring candid interviews from Will Arnett, Jason Bateman, Paul Rudd, Zach Galifianakis, and everyday people weighing in on everything from the obsession with facial hair to body dysmorphic disorder.

Staring:

Morgan Spurlock - Himself

Will Arnett - Himself

Jason Bateman - Himself
