Constellation, Episode 50 | Our Favorite Villains, Christmas, Reality TV, Raprock
Added 2023-12-18 17:00:09 +0000 UTCWelcome to Constellation, Last Stand's conversational podcast. This week, the Brothers Moriarty are joined by LSM executive producer Dustin Furman, and -- for the first time -- popular YouTuber Finn Mckenty, the Punk Rock MBA. Let's get into the topics, shall we? Knowing that Finn is a fellow music connoisseur, Colin wants to probe his mind about one of his beloved musical genres: Raprock. Does it deserve more respect? And why is it experiencing a resurgence in recent years? Keeping seasonality in mind, Dustin's topic is Christmas, something fun for children but bastardized by commerce nonetheless. As adults, do we even care anymore? Finn's keen to chat about reality TV: Its history, its long run of success stories, and how it inspired our entertainment lives. Finally, Dagan's topic is one for the ages, all about our favorite bad guys in fiction. If we had to construct a so-called Mount Rushmore of Villainy, who would adorn it?

So glad that Attack on Titan came up, I was hoping someone would say Eren Jaeger so thank you Finn! (Hopefully Colin will get back into the show!) I also must vehemently disagree about the animation taking a turn for the worse in the final season. It’s absolutely beautiful and I think Mappa did an incredible job.

2023-12-21 04:40:07 +0000 UTCAgree with everyone else that Finn was a dope guest. My top 4 Villains: Joker (Hamill) , Gustavo Fring, Green Goblin, Homelander (TV) Chronic Future is my fave band. So much potential. Everything after Lines In My Face hits. Ugly ornament exchange is cute.

2023-12-20 20:23:50 +0000 UTCAgreed. Santa Claus is a game you play with your children. It’s an elaborate form of pretend, stimulating to a child’s mind in the same way things like imaginary friends are. Saying it’s “a lie” or whatever has always come off like a Reddit-tier smug atheist attitude to me. It’s harmless. My parents did the Santa thing with me and I didn’t mind at all when I figured out it was real. It was fun.

2023-12-20 18:47:26 +0000 UTCTelling a child Santa isn’t real kills their imagination and leaves society with a soulless drone that we all must deal with as they age. Do us all a favor and let your children be children. Curb the Neil degras Tyson schtick

2023-12-20 18:45:29 +0000 UTCAny fans of rap rock need to check out Street Sweeper Social Club. It’s Tom Morello and Boots Riley of The Coup. It was painfully short-lived and underappreciated but it’s fucking dope.

2023-12-20 11:11:14 +0000 UTCDude the same thing happened to me. I only just finished season 3. For fucks sake I was really hoping that wasn’t a spoiler. Skipped forward as soon as he said the name. So bummed out, probably won’t even finish it now.

2023-12-19 19:00:53 +0000 UTC100%. There have been several times that I've had to mentally remind myself that it isn't Matty.

JD
2023-12-19 17:45:29 +0000 UTCI fucking love Finn.. he was great on this episode and gels so well with the crew, need him on LSM content more often from now on. He better be part of the nu-metal subject with Ramon when it finally comes.

2023-12-19 16:32:04 +0000 UTCDag should definitely try Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order and Survivor. Darth Vader is legit awesome

2023-12-19 08:48:05 +0000 UTCFinn’s a dope guest, he fits right in to the dynamic

2023-12-19 05:31:01 +0000 UTCLol, Lockmort is going to “hit it out of the park” with Colin this week.

2023-12-19 02:54:45 +0000 UTCThe rap/rock conversation had me listening to my rap/rock playlist on my drive home from work and while making dinner lol.

2023-12-19 00:58:51 +0000 UTCYeah, had been awhile, but I didn’t remember that part of the story so thank you

2023-12-18 21:54:52 +0000 UTCI can’t believe there wasn’t a Body Count reference for rap rock!
Simon Freeman
2023-12-18 20:46:28 +0000 UTCAlso, loved Finn on here. I'm a major music nerd and watch nearly every video that Finn does.
Jay McGraw
2023-12-18 20:28:11 +0000 UTCIn the upcoming Pizza discussion, don't forget Mr. Gatti's Pizza. I have infinitely great memories of going to the Gatti's near my grandmothers, getting the pizza buffet and watching the cartoons and playing the table top arcade games. Maybe the games biased me to liking the pizzza, but I still can remember the distinctive taste it had in comparison to other places.
Jay McGraw
2023-12-18 20:27:03 +0000 UTCIt’s an easy mistake to make since they came out in such close proximity (the same year, in fact), but “The Killing Joke” is not the story where Joker beats Robin to death with a crowbar. That story would be “A Death in the Family” . Just thought I’d point it out in case anyone was curious that doesn’t know Batman as much as my nerd ass.

2023-12-18 20:12:17 +0000 UTCYo Finn is dope I've subscribed to him for a long time. Very cool guest.

2023-12-18 19:17:50 +0000 UTCThat dude really sounds a lot like Matty.

2023-12-18 19:06:23 +0000 UTCGod dammit I love Finn, I'm so glad you guys invited him onto the show.
Craig Carter
2023-12-18 17:56:04 +0000 UTCThis is unexpected! I knew Dustin is a fan of his but that's cool.
Quinnton from Spokane
2023-12-18 17:53:22 +0000 UTCLove Finn and his channel. So excited to listen to this one. Thanks guys.
