Hey folks!
It's come to our attention here at Relevant to Our Interests (Relevant 2 R Interests) that we've got a large backlog of episodes. So we thought it might be a brilliant idea to start doing Throwback Thursdays. Especially as we are slowly creating videos and uploading our back catalogue to YouTube, it's time to share some of the old content here in the new form.
So without further ado:
And for those that want to listen to the original episode, check it out on Soundcloud here!
We're a almost weekly podcast that looks at different aspects of geek and nerd culture: examining, analyzing and critiquing things we fun and interesting.

Episode 44: John Hates What You Love: The Defenders (with a bonus cut track!)
Episode 44: John Hates What You Love: The Defenders
Hosts: Frank Shaw and John Belliston
Produced by Relevant to Our Interests
Scripting by Frank Shaw and John Belliston
Edited by: Frank Shaw
Graphic Design by: Nathan Newell
Intro Music: Morning Activities by F.G. Shaw
Outro Music: Morning Activities by F.G. Shaw
John levels some pretty hard criticism towards Netflix/Marvel's The Defenders. There's no links in this weeks show notes, but there is a clarification, or a reiteration if you will: We didn't actually hate The Defenders. I know the title is provocative, and often times John has a genuine dislike for things that fall under this heading, though not always (see our episode on Nightmare Before Christmas). This is one of those instances. We both actually liked the Defenders, but there was a weakness to the series that put into focus all the other problems it had: Iron Fist.
Which brings us to this: in order to keep the show at between 40 minutes to an hour long I have to cut conversation out of each episode. Usually it's wild tangents, or interruptions to the recording that can't always be avoided. It's the nature of our podcast and how we currently have the production set up, being so far apart and struggling with separate recordings. Now and then something that isn't integral to the conversation but still adds to it has to be cut. This is one of those instances. About 5 1/2 minutes were cut out of this episode that just rehashed some of our thoughts on Iron Fist. I'm presenting it here for those that are curious.

Episode 20: Daredevil Season 2
Episode 20: Daredevil Season Two
Hosts: Frank Shaw and John Belliston
Produced by Hobos in the Back Row

Intro Music: Piano Sonata mvnt 1 by F.G. Shaw

John and I got together and discussed Daredevil Season 2. We talk about the Punisher, Elektra, and what we loved and disliked about the season. We also talk a bit more about Kaiju films, Final Fantasy 15, Planet X and throw out some actual, real crazy fan theories.
Here are the links to IFLS arcticles on Planet X/Planet 9. There are further links to more in depth articles and papers in each of the articles.
There may or may not be a Punisher spin off. There are a ton of speculative articles on this. I think it's likely, given the popularity of this instance of the character, but as of right now, there's nothing confirmed.
As for Crazy Fan Theories: The Hand the Blacksky are vampires!
Madam Gao is a Skrull!
Daredevil is the actual Devil!!!
