It’s been seven and a half months since we’ve posted a full proper episode of “Bad Rapport”! So are we going to talk about everything we’ve done since then? No! We’re going to talk about Alex & Carrie’s first trip out to California to see “The Aquabats!”, and Carrie’s second trip out to California to see “The Aquabats!”! Also, we do an instant review of “Star Wars: The Last Jedi”, Carrie talks about her 40th Birthday, our respective Christmas visits with our families, and we have surprise brief interview with “Blasted Bill” Putt of the “Pod Of Destiny” podcast recorded at ConFusion in Michigan. But mainly it’s Carrie talking about the Aquabats. If there isn’t already a show called “The AquaCast!” then this is it, at least for this episode.

Our comedy and music tracks are provided by Suicidal Tendencies, Power Salad, The Meatmen, Dr. Demento, Brak, The Aquabats!, The Misfits, Adam West, The Dead Milkmen, GOGO13, Osaka Popstar, Joan Jett, Carrie Dahlby, the great Luke Ski, Rachel Bloom, Eminem, Ookla The Mok, and Garfunkel & Oates.

Note: the “What’s Luke Plugging Now?” segment was put in the middle of the episode because it made the most sense editing-wise. This episode is brought to you by Roscoe’s Chicken And Waffles. Or at least, we wish it was. Enjoy!

Carrie also does a brief report on OVFF and Alex’s Alexa shenannigans, and Luke talks about the stuff he’s been up to per usual.

Three months have gone by since the last full episode has posted, the timing of which means that (besides promotional episode #127.5), we went completely through MarsCon season with out me posting an episode. In fact, Carrie and I finished recording all the segments of this episode 7 weeks ago (before MarsCon 2017), and I am only now getting around to editing and posting it for you all.  I apologize for the delay, but hopefully this is an indication of how busy I’ve been lately between creating the MarsCon Dementia Track and my day job making the best cartoon show ever “Mighty MagiSwords”.

In this episode we recap our 2016-to-2017 holiday season experiences, Luke’s visits to the Midwest and Carrie’s visit to the hospital. We also went to the Volo Auto Museum where we got a picture with a replica of “Greased Lightning” because “Grease Wars”. Speaking of fast cars, Luke is very excited that there’s a new arcade game in the “Cruis’n” franshise.

This episode’s comedy & music tracks are by The FuMP, The Gregory Brothers, “The Lego Batman Movie”, Insane Ian, “The Flash” & “Supergirl”, Tony Goldmark, the great Luke Ski, “Tangled”, “Moana”, “Beauty And The Beast”, StarF, Devo Spice, Da Vinci’s Notebook, The Library Bards, and Power Salad.

Tune in next time for our MarsCon 2017 recap, which will hopefully post sometime before FuMPFeST 2017. 🙂
