Movies Over My Hammy

It’s Adam’s Birthday and we’re having a surprise party! Everyone quiet down, quiet down. We’re gonna turn off all the lights and yell “Surprise!” when he walks through the door. In the meantime you should listen to this extra long episode of the podcast. 
Introducing the first in the Movies Over My Hammy Birthday series! This is where we take the birthday boy and give them the chance to pair a beloved restaurant chain against a beloved movie. For Adam’s birthday he chose to throw 4 mutant turtles and a rat in the ring with a cheap pizza. Who will come out on top!? The film and characters that started one of the largest trends of teenaged creatures fighting other creatures or the pizza chain that started a trend of growing very large before making an announcement that they made the pizza good now! And will Adam be able to best Andrew in a classic game of Teenage Samurai Street Bikers from Mutant Shark Pizza Mars? You’ll have to listen to—He’s here! SURPRISE!! 
Oh no! That seems to have been too much for him! Is anybody here a doctor!? We need a doctor!

Big guy. Big guy. Big big guy. Big guy.
Spongebob episode pants okay. Spongebob episode pants okay. 
This week we watched a movie for babies (ironically not at all for big guys). Just basically 2 hours of keys jingling on a screen. Okay, okay, that’s a bit mean. It’s more like an hour and 30 minutes of keys jingling on a screen with about 30 minutes of jokes.
Did you know that this one has an actual movie tie in menu? And that tie in menu is brought to you by the place with the most bizarrely managed social media presence...Burger King! The home of the unhinged fans that we know and love created the Spongebob Menu with, checks notes, a regular Whopper but the bun is yellow and kind of square. INNOVATION!
Call up the president of Burger King at his personal phone number (305) 874-0520 and let him know how good that square yellow bun is, that they should stop contributing to atrocities overseas, and also they need to bring the Stacker Sauce back!
After talking about all those things that I said before that we talked about we played a game about characters that live in things that aren’t houses called “Who Lived in a What Under the Huh?”

In this episode we talked about hot chicken and the only thing hotter than hot chicken, nuclear fallout. That’s right we made our way into Dave’s Hot Chicken to ask about a menu item that many employees didn’t even realize existed in the first place but worry not dear listener, Adam did manage to get the special meal and it’s very special toy. 
But here’s the thing, he doesn’t even want the dang thing. He learned that he could sell it on eBay for a cool $20 and there before I knew it there was an Adam-shaped cloud of smoke right next to an Adam-shaped hole in the wall where he ran to go to the nearest computer and list it. In the process we all discovered the burgeoning market of selling chicken mcnuggets that don’t look like regular chicken nuggets but also don’t really look like anything else. What was I talking about again? Oh yeah, Fallout! 
Maybe I can buy a copy of Fallout if I sell enough weird-looking mcnuggets that I tell people look like Walton Goggins. Maybe I can buy a copy of a Dave’s Hot Chicken sandwich if you leave us a review!

There was, once upon a time, a podcast not far from a big city. A road ran through, but there were only a few episodes. A Jack in the Box episode, a Denny’s episode, a Jolibee episode. And all kinds of Burger King episodes. Vagrants, run away teens, religious fanatics, retired seniors who, well, it was a podcast for those who wanted to be left alone. And so they listened.
Good job narrator Tom Waits! In this episode we compared a humble candy bar to a humble student film…wait, you’re telling me this isn’t a student film? Well, fine, be pedantic. This first time film from a new filmmaker…wait, this movie was made by the guy who made THE GODFATHER!?! 
Which will win? The tasty candy bar or the sucky movie? No spoilers! I’m calling it sucky because it’s about vampires (but also because it sucks). We also played a game about chain restaurants.

Oh, hello. I didn’t see you there. Welcome to my dusty old curios shop, there’s not much to see here. Oh, the whistling? That’s just a new episode of the Moons Over My Hammy podcast, cute little guy ain’t he? You’d like to take him home with you? Well, of course, of course, you seem like fine enough folks. In fact, you seem so nice I’ll give him to you for free but you’ve got to make sure to follow some rules. Do you have a pen and paper handy?
1. Don’t let the episode get wet.
2. Don’t expose the episode to direct sunlight.
3. Don’t listen to the episode after midnight.
Follow these three simple rules and you’ll have yourself a good ol’ time. Fail to follow one and your ears will turn into gremlins or something. 
GREMLINS! That’s right I was doing a Gremlins thing there because this week Adam and Andrew compared the Gremlins Midnight Meal from Jack in the Box to the best Gremlins movie money can buy, Gremlins 2: The New Batch! What’s better, a Gremlin-shaped air freshener or a spider-shaped Gremlin? Which was spicier, a Jack in the Box taco or Greta the Gremlin? And will Adam be able to best Andrew in a game of Little Guys?

Ten episodes? Of a show where they compare a movie to a sandwich or whatever? Hey, man! That’s uncalled for! I seem to remember a video game series turned manga turned anime turned movies about a bunch of animals that are just like other animals but they can fight and stuff. There’s also like over a thousand of them! Come back to us when there’s over a thousand episodes of this thing and we’re now comparing Kentucky Fried Chicken to Kentucky Fried Movie…Wait, that’s actually a pretty good one. Forget what I just said.
There’s a brand new line of beverages at Kung Fu Tea to promote the launch of the latest Pokemon game so you know Adam and Andrew had to get in for a taste. While they may not be comparing the drinks to the game that they’re meant to promote, this game takes like 30 hours to beat, they are comparing it to a certain well received Pokemon film. Can you solve the mystery of which one? I hope so because it’s in the title of the episode.
Andrew attempts to stump Adam with Pokemon trivia and they tackle their first attempt at a brand new segment, Food News (hopefully better name incoming eventually! Throw your Pokeball (podcast downloading app) at this one and capture (listen to) it. We hope you can train (review) it up to be a 5 star (review) Pokemon!

What can I say about Stranger Things? It’s a little cheesy, the acting is a bit hammy, and the finale is kind of half baked.
What can I say about the Stranger Things Frozen Pizza? It’s a little cheesy, the toppings are a bit hammy, and I did make sure to fully cook it so the joke doesn’t fully work.
This week we both definitely remembered that the Stranger Things finale released and so we (again, the both of us) watched it to compare it to a line of frozen pizzas that they inexplicably decided to release to celebrate the occasion. What did we (both of us for sure) think of the finale? What did we think of the pizza? And why oh why do I keep feeling the need to specify that we both watched this dang finale in time for this recording?
Also we have our first repeat game as Food or Faux makes it return to the airwaves with an all new Stranger Things edition. Can you believe we did a Stranger Things edition of this game? How many Stranger Things themed snacks could there possibly be?

It’s finally here! The last episode where we talk about the Burger King Monster Menu! Good riddance and we’ll probably eat it again later this year. What was the difference in the Jack O Lantern Whopper? Well, funny you should ask, much like most of the BK Monster Menu this burger has a tiny aesthetic tweak, the orange bun. No pumpkin patty, no pumpkin sauce, no pumpkin seed bun, no melted candle cheese, just an orange bun with a bit of extra chew to it. 
So what could we possibly compare to this subpar fast food menu item with some cool looking tweaks? A subpar horror movie with some cool looking effects! That’s right, we’re talking about Pumpkinhead! Now don’t burn us alive for five minutes straight like the opening credits of the 76 minute long Pumpkinhead for this take, we both liked it! Stan Winston is the king of 80’s monsters but he should stick to special effects! 
Which will win out? The burger patty with a rubbery bun or the movie with a rubbery monster? We’re also both aware that there are several movies called Jack-O-Lantern but they all looked very bad and one of them is actually called Jack-O so who looks dumb now?? And HalloWHOWILLWIN the first game of HallWHOween???

We finally did it! We ate the name of the podcast sandwich and we compared it to that new PT Anderson movie! Is the acting in the film hammier than the ham in the moon sandwich? Will we prefer the crisp shots of cars blasting through the desert or the crisp toasts of the sandwich? All these answers and more can be yours for the humble price of a download. 
But you may find yourself asking, “Why is my beloved Movies Over My Hammy artwork missing this week?” Well dear listener, listening to the podcast explains the podcast. Buuuuut if you just don’t have the time or you choose to only intake this podcast via episode description (I’m sorry) Denny’s made a shoe with syrup inside of it and we, in our infinite wisdom, figured that you would like to see this sweet colab. Also we ran out of time for a game so we chose to make a menu called One Burger After Another and leave the rest to you.

So I’ve been playing a lot of the video game Death Stranding lately and in that game there’s a guy named Deadman who’s made of approximately 70% dead guy parts. Well you’ll never believe it, that Deadman guy directed a movie! A few of them in fact. And one of those movies happens to be about a guy who’s made of approximately 100% dead guy parts.
This week Adam and Andrew are heading back into the Burger King Monster Menu to dig up the Franken-Candy Sundae and compare it to Guillermo del Toro’s latest release, Frankenstein. Will we be saying "IT’S ALIVE…and a good movie.” or will we be saying “IT’S DELICIOUS…and a good food.” Also Andrew pitches Adam a few new food concepts that a certain plumber may enjoy in the first edition of Foodventions.
