  • 2009 Music - Dream Theater & Kelly Clarkson II!
    Jul 3 2025

    We've got a rare return bout here at Media Made!

    In this 2009 Music episode, progressive metal legends Dream Theater once again square off with pop sensation Kelly Clarkson. And to give these two acts all the time to shine, Rod & Jess are talking more songs than they would in a standard show!

    First, they look back at essentially Dream Theater's entire Black Clouds & Silver Linings album (as if they had a choice, given that it only features six songs.) Then, they examine an extra-big portion of Kelly Clarkson's pop renaissance, All I Ever Wanted. Get comfy, because this is going to be a long one!

    The festivities kick off with a discussion about Quentin Tarantino's explosive World War II epic Inglourious Basterds. And the action doesn't stop there, as we move on to JJ Abrams' flashy and fun Star Trek reboot. Which one of these heavy-hitters will we name the better film of 2009?

  • More 1996 Movies (with Flashback 64) - Independence Day & Space Jam!
    May 1 2025

    Media Made is going back to 90s, and we're bringing some friends along!

    Welcome to Earth, 1996. It was a big year in pop culture. Blockbuster movies were everywhere, classic cartoon characters were entering their renaissance, and a little game console called the Nintendo 64 was hitting store shelves.

    Rod & Jess are joined this month by Gooey and McKenna, hosts of the Flashback 64 podcast, to look back at the two 1996 movies that most invaded THEIR lives. We kick off the festivities with conversation about Roland Emmerich's disaster movie classic, Independence Day. Then, we slam and jam with the 90s' craziest crossover film, Space Jam.
