As Expected, Michael Bolton Loves Pirates [Jack Sparrow SNL Short]


Talk about no shame, Michael Bolton jumps on the Lonely Island bandwagon as he is featured on one of their latest tracks, "Jack Sparrow." At first you may think, "Golly. I didn't think Michael Bolton would be interested in doing such material with adult language and themes throughout." Well, I understand your thought, but allow me to remind you that Bolton had such hits as, "Can I Touch You...There?" as featured in our previous cassingle blogpost

Pandora Radio [Classical Music] Fail

People know I can be a nerd, now you will, too. I went on Pandora and wanted to listen to some classical music, so I typed in "Dvorak New World Symphony." (Trust me, it's a [Romantic] Classical Piece.) ANYWAYS, since I've met the nerd quota here, Pandora recommended to me the "piece" below:


Yes, it recommended a remix of Lady Gaga. Fail.

Great F*©king News! Swearing Cures Pain!

According to a study from England's Keele University, swearing can help soothe pain. The study was conducted by having the subjects put their hands in a bowl of icy water. One time, the group was told they couldn't swear at all, and the other time was told they could swear as much as they wanted. Their task: hold their hands in the icy water as long as they could.

Results? When people were able to swear throughout the experiment, they could keep their hands in the water on average 40 seconds longer! That's f*cking great!

This isn't new research we're hearing about, though. For some reason, it apparently takes the Los Angeles Times two years to write about it, and then it takes me an additional month or so to pick it up and tell you.

Severus Snape: The Usual Suspect

Discussion of literary choices for the name "Potter", an answer to the question "Why broomsticks?" And predictions for the upcoming summer movie.  Primarily discussion of Severus Snape as the most suspected, redeemed, and finally detested villain.  Who knows how the film will depict this delightfully slithering snake. Follow more Potteresque nonsense at @Bobocast on Twitter!

Giant Cake Dick: Love and Golf

Tony pops the L-Word (love you freaks). Andy becomes more domestic than he expected due to the magical influence of slippers. Cake is served - it truly is the good life. The Supervillain.me Podcast Network is introduced with impassioned rhetoric and little fanfare. 'Last Cock Standing', a TV cooking show about erotic cakes, is invented. Kids' shows are boring.

This Bobocast tries to answer the question: What is so fascinating about Harry Potter?
Also, an analysis of Ron & Hermione and role they play in the series, how they are written, and how the stories progress with them. What role will they have in the final chapter of the film adaptation of the final half of the final book? A short history of Ron and Hermione and how they appear in the books also answers the question - why is the wizarding world so popular?
Strap in Potterheads, this is Bobocast. Nitwit, blubber, oddment, tweak!
