Blimey! For the first time in Media Made history, we're looking back two British shows in a single episode! First, we segue once again into the world of web entertainment with one of YouTube's earliest success stories, Yu-Gi-Oh The Abridged Series. Then, we examine the quirky, nerd-focused sitcom throwback The IT Crowd. This is an episode for all you STANDARD NERDS out there.

Media Made is FINALLY back to its regularly scheduled programming! And we've got a new studio too!
On this fine Independence Day, we're looking back at two All-American bands and their respective 2006 debuts. First, we explore the strange world of faith-based rock music with The Classic Crime's Albatross. Then, we go retro with the chiptune-y goodness of Anamanaguchi's Power Supply. Join us as we take on these two cult hits!

Media Made is currently moving its studio! So rather than forgo a new episode this month, we've decided to release a special audio commentary track for Rod's 2006 movie, Casino Royale!
Grab your own copy of Daniel Craig's first Bond film and watch along with your pals at Media Made. We offer up all the thoughts and insights on Casino Royale and the James Bond series that we couldn't fit into our 2006 Movies podcast!

We are back to our regularly scheduled programming!
Rod & Jess kick off their 2006 block of shows with an extended chat about two very different films. First, they discuss the whimsical, girl-power comedy Penelope (which technically released in 2006). Then, they thoroughly break down pop culture icon James Bond and the entire 007 series via Casino Royale.

Media Made is back with our 2024 April Fools' episode!
In what we're calling "And Now For Something Completely Different...," Rod & Jess have put together a copy-cat episode. We're lifting the formats of two of our favorite podcasts and putting our own spin on them. First, we offer some relationship and life advice by emulating the Reddit stories podcast Reddit On Wiki. Then, we gotta go fast when we do our own episode of the video game music show VGMpire.

It's Rod's birthday! And he's giving himself a gift with this special episode of Media Made!
In the first of hopefully many specials, Rod and his good pal Michael look back at a classic prog rock concept album: Rush's 2112! They explore the history of the band, the circumstances of the album's release, the inspirations behind the story and songs, and the legacy 2112 left behind. Musicology, history, philosophy, and sociology abound in our first Concept Album Spotlight!

We're going to just come out and say it: This might be Media Made's most unapproachable episode ever.
As Rod & Jess grew up in the mid-2000s, their TV habits moved away from standard American broadcasts and toward other corners of the media landscape. To illustrate, this 2005 TV podcast marks our first journey into internet television, as we discuss online media company Rooster Teeth's third machinima web series PANICS. Then, we go back to South Korea to discuss the beloved slice-of-life drama My Lovely Sam Soon. If you're feeling adventurous, give the episode a listen!

Are you ready to rock?! Things get heavy for Rod & Jess in this 2005 Music episode, as they discuss two of the leading rock acts of the time. First, they look back at the trendsetting breakthrough release of Avenged Sevenfold, City of Evil. Then, they dissect the commercial peak of Canadian juggernaut Nickelback, All the Right Reasons. It's a wild ride!
