The Big Brother house continues it's twists and turns and Allison, Bryan and Big Brother Mike continue to cover exactly all what is going on. From a day at the races to laundry time, these three are talking about it. There was a lot going on this week, so the episode is a little lengthy, but there's no problem with that because with Ian being all awkward excited, Willie being a big baby and Joe's harsh tactics to get everyone to eat his food when he wants them to, the house guests and coaches have given us a lot to talk about! So crack a couple beers (or a tall glass of ice water) and join us.

Back on task and ready to deliver the goods, Allison and Bryan don't slack and mumble around on this episode! They cover the finale of the Amazing Race and two episodes of Top Chef and it only takes them just shy of an hour! If they seem a bit distracted at time, that's because something was making a noise in the office (the sound doesn't pick up on the mic, thankfully) and they try to figure out where it is coming from. That mystery is never solved, but the mystery as to where they've been the last few weeks is solved... or over... whatever makes more sense.

Let's see... in this episode we cover the Amazing Race, Top Chef, Ringer, beer, the etymology of Bryan's last name, bok choy, rum & cola, cows (and the liking of), Christmas vacation drives, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, being an old married couple among several other topics... and not necessarily in that order. Seriously, Allison and Bryan haven't had an episode this long in a long time but they also haven't been this drunk doing a podcast in a long time, or gotten off topic like this in a long time. If you long for the days where the reality show talk was secondary to the cult of personality that is Allison and Bryan, then this episode is for you, if you're really just tuning in to here what they really think of the Amazing Race and Top Chef, well... that's all there, but it does take a while to get back to it once they derail. Hey guys, it is the journey, not the destination!

Episode 174 : Big Brother 13 : Finale (I'm Stuck in the Butter)
September 18, 2011 06:25 PM PDT
itunes pic

Here it is, the end of Big Brother 13. Can you believe it? Allison, Bryan and Big Brother Mike can't, but it was a fun season right up until the end. We talk about the 90min finale where we try to figure out where Adam's assuredness was coming from, exactly where Julie lost track of the show and what was up with those final questions. As always, we're super sad that Big Brother has come to another close, but look forward to next summer.

Episode 172 : Big Brother 13 : Week 8 HOH & Nominations (With an R)
September 05, 2011 09:56 PM PDT

Allison, Bryan and Big Brother Mike are here to chat all about Big Brother. On this episode they talk about the Pandora's Box celebrity twist, which welcomes back an old friend as well as blows Adam's mind! They make fun of almost everyone and everything... except for Porche's damn body glitter? What was up with that? But yeah, from donut wrangling to key pulling and all the duck kissing in between, they got it covered.

P.S. This episode contains much more randomness than usual. You've been warned.

Allison, Bryan and Big Brother Mike continue to talk about Big Brother. They cover all the sneakiness that Shelly is trying to pull off, Jordan and Rachael's new alliance name and the reactions to the final speeches. They even talk about the newly broken in Jury House. It is a pretty short episode, but that's because while there was a lot going on, it is not totally dramatic as it has been in the last few weeks.

We're still here and now timelier than ever! We're talking about Sunday's big show in which the clock is turned back to last Thursday before the Eviction and Fast Forward events took place. So much craziness went on between Jeff and Shelly that we all NEED to know and NEED to discuss. Of course doing all this discussing is Allison, Bryan and Big Brother Mike as is usual for this podcast. What is not so usual is what we talk about after recapping the episode. It is a very serious talk about Big Brother fan etiquette. Listen up and spread the word, we all need to stay with-in bounds.

Well, Shelly's going crazy in the house, Porche winds up in an alliance no one wouldn't've predicted 2 weeks ago, Adam make a bad choice and the nominations are shocking. That's just the beginning of week 6 or as Allison Likes to call it "Week 4 Remix" and Bryan likes to call it "Week 4 Part 2: Chain Reaction" Big Brother Mike just calls it "Week 6" because, in this case, he's a normal thinking human. Seriously folks, seriously, the house is getting crazy and the three of them are getting a little nutty in their coverage of it.

BOOSH! This is how it goes! It was an explosive week in the Big Brother house and Allison can't contain her excitement while talking about it with Bryan and Big Brother Mike. Heck, she can't even wait to get the discussion started! They question what the hell Lawon was thinking, talk about the cleanly shaven Adam and ponder if Kalia will ever get Jeff & Jordan to like her again. They even tackle the most controversial twist of the Summer, the return of a past house-guest and why they DON'T think it was rigged! Listen up and see if you agree!

Allegedly Allison, Bryan and Big Brother Mike were set to record an "eh" episode about an "eh" episode of Big Brother, but it turned out to be a fun one. They talk about Jeff and Kalia's fight, bizarro Jordan and Rachael the catty smart ass. Big Brother Mike also lets us all in on a fight that we didn't see after the Have/Have Not competition. If you think this is impressive, the trio also talk about some other reality shows, some alleged Big Brother drama from past house guests but also Big Brother Jesus.

Back once again to do a once over on this week of Big Brother. Allison, Bryan and Big Brother Mike love all things big brother and have a lot to say this week about game strategy, social strategy and Franklin the turtle. It is a crazy episode where Big Brother Mike flat out disagrees with a lot of what Allison is saying and Bryan goes back and forth between them pointing out the merits and pitfalls of each plan. Things are so out of hand Bryan even starts to defend Rachel!

Allison and Bryan let you in on what went on for them at this weekend's Reality Rally. It was a good time had over 3 days. Running around with, and trying to keep up with reality tv stars is harder than you'd think, but they're also all such nice people that it makes the tiredness all worth it!

P.S. Allison does know that she said "Enzo" as opposed to "Lane" for final 2 big brother season 12. Give her a break it was a long weekend and she was still half drunk!

After last week's humiliating loss of a podcast Bryan and Allison are back pretending both that last week didn't happen, and that it did and they covered it already, in either case they're moving on because reality television sleeps for no one. We go over the deep fried Southern goodness that was Top Chef All-Stars, the very kangaroo-ificness of the Amazing Race and the tasty cake filled yumminess of RuPaul's Drag Race. All that, Allison and Bryan doing their normal goof off routine (stick to the shows you crazy kids!) and just wait until near the end, when all signs are pointing to an other possible podcast loss! Oh man, these two almost lose it! Stay until the end and Allison will let you in on why we haven't been seeing Al Meatball around lately.

Allison and Bryan come out of drunken hibernation to talk about the last 2 weeks worth of Top Chef All Stars. Allison takes the time to mention a bit of Jersey Shore-ness. Also, why does Bryan remember the Brown's Chicken logo completely different looking? Is he getting his Midwest chicken franchises mixed up? Regardless, when we get to that argument, you can just know that Allison is already right on all counts and that Bryan is fried chicken ignorant.

It would be wrong to call it a comeback, as we've been here for a established and significant amount of time, but it is true we took some time off. We get into why we did as well as deliver some Reality Show News before heading into our show coverage. We get all Amazing Raced and then we hit up the end of I Love Money 4 before witnessing the beginning of Top Chef All Stars.

Allison & Bryan get ready to watch the finale of Solitary 4.0 and they let you in on the fun. Fun? Well maybe that's a strong word, but it is interesting to hear their blow by blow description of what's going on as it happens. So load up that DVR again and get ready to watch it again w/ a couple of the biggest Solitary fans out there. There are some spots where we get caught up JUST watching the show, but I'm sure you can agree, it was so riveting that you just HAD to watch and keep your mouth shut.

Let us know what you want us to ask the finalists!
