Later in MCEP, Jenna Jameson, a highly decorated actress who’s starred in over 120 movies, is helping others rediscover their inner faith. She’s born again, she’s found Jesus, although a little surprising with acting credits like “Where the Boys Aren’t 17” and “Dirty Bob’s Excellent Adventures”. Never mind that she converted to Judaism in 2015. That was yesterday, like 80 movies ago! Cheers for redemption. Jeers for the possibility of a comeback tour.

There’s also our Worst Case Scenario chat, now called Matt and Craig Save the World. We’ll give it a different name in a couple of weeks and then change it again at the fiscal. Or not. The Final Boss segment includes Golden Axe, an arcade game that ruled the earth and destroyed communism.

It’s a real place, not heaven.  

The final boss segment features NBA Jam, the granddaddy of sports games at your local arcade hall. Boom shakalaka THEY’RE ON FIRE! Insert a quarter into an NBA Jam cabinet and artificially ball like Charles Oakley. Dreams do come true.

It’s Ep. 4 of Matt and Craig’s Excellent Podcast. Thanks for stopping by.

At least the AI that’s replacing us isn’t the Skynet, nuke-all-humanity kind of AI. Then again, maybe it is. As discussed in the third episode of MCEP, tech firms are now shopping AI as real life, working people. Could you work in a room that’s been infiltrated by artificial intelligence and cognitive machines? Don’t look now, but your coworker is leaking fluid. We said DON’T LOOK. They can see out of the back of their heads. Literally. They're probably telepathically draining your humanity as we speak. Relax! The process is painless. It’s a gorgeous day to be cyber alive and thank you for joining the collective.

But first, Matt and Craig offer an easy to follow, step-by-step process on how to survive an encounter with a Mountain Lion and finish with the granddaddy game of them all in the Final Boss segment.

Your cab mate starts having a baby.

This would be fine if you were a doctor, but you’re not a doctor and neither is the taxi driver. What do you do? First, you panic. Get that out of the way early. Second?

You know what second is. Oh yeah. It’s time to roll up the sleeves and experience the miracle of childbirth. It’s time to play doctor. Or something like that. Wait. The good news? You’re not alone. Matt and Craig, two childless, middle-aged men offer an easy to follow, step by step process that’ll make your first attempt at catalyzing childbirth a thrilling, no holds barred kidsfest just short of a bouncy house. It’ll be a rewarding experience for all involved. Everyone will have fun.

Later, Craig continues his resurgence into gym life while coping with various “distractions” as a married man. Finally, the fellas come full circle in the Final Boss segment by reminiscing about the quarter consuming, taxi flipping arcade gem, Crazy Taxi.

It’s episode two of MCEP, baby. Tell all of your friends.

In this episode, we talk about proper form while leaping from a moving motorcycle into a moving car. Knowing the process is like knowing a few phrases of Latin. Useful? Not at all, but great for an ice breaker at your next black tie event. Later, Craig discusses his triumphant return to weight training while spending hundreds of dollars on a hunky personal trainer for his wife. They also learn that their phones are giving them hemorrhoids. The news is startling.

Finally, in our Final Boss segment, our two-middle aged, classic gamers review NARC, a fantastic arcade game where you arrest drug overlords by firing grenade launchers at their heads. You're also dressed like characters from Tron, making this a true find from the golden age of gaming.

What do you get when you pair a "decorated traffic reporter" with a guy who occasionally fills in on the radio? You get a hilarious mix of life skills, self-deprecating humor, and the kind of conversations that can only happen when there are no kids around to interrupt. From teaching you how to jump out of a speeding car (hypothetically, of course) to navigating the single life, Matt and Craig are on a mission to make you laugh, teach you something you didn't know you needed, and probably embarrass themselves in the process.

Tune in every week for your dose of humor and questionable advice. It's the podcast that proves you don't need to have it all figured out to have a great time.
