Episode 145: 30 Years Worth of Board Game-Related PTSD - Jumanji! Artwork

Bourbon On Ice

After spending years braving the nightly airwaves of Cape Cod’s 90.7 WKKL, Massachusetts radio DJs Mike Whiskey (civil servant by day, DnD world creator and gamer by night) and Your Friend Frosty (made of salt, low-key rage, sarcasm, and alcohol) have reunited for an all-new show. Going their separate ways, changing careers, and doing more than five years-worth of growing in a changing world, Whiskey and Frosty team up once again and dust off their microphones. Together, this overworked and incurably nerdy pair will bring their Cape Cod local perspective to why everything west of the bridges is scary and weird, why the height of sophistication begins with food trucks, why the only real holiday that matters is in October, and why the keys to life are strong friendships, strong laughs, and of course, strong drinks.

So, yeah, Happy 4th of July and all that. While it's the USA's birthday, your podcast hosts are celebrating a unique anniversary, one thirty years in the making. And just like on the 4th of July when dogs all run and hide under blankets from fireworks, so does Your Friend Frosty from the terror that is 1995's film blockbuster Jumanji. Which, according to Frosty, is actually a horror movie. What's that? A challenger has entered the arena? Your bartender, Mike Whiskey, begs to differ and offer up the claim that Jumanji is not a horror movie. Giant spiders, man-eating plants, and rampaging animals, plus a homicidal weirdo with a gun - how is this not a horror movie? Join in the debate, and head for New Hampshire, we're having a fun run. That'll make more sense when the episode is over.
