Hey, gang! Adrian here. Ashley’s busy checking our Halloween candy at the behest of G.U.A.P.A. and didn’t have time to do a write-up. Apparently she’s requesting all of the fun-size Snickers bars. Who knew rogue computer programs ate chocolate? News to me! Anyway, this was a fun episode to record. We decided to share stories of past Spooky Season wackiness including being radicalized by trick-or-treating, party-going woes and we weigh in on whether or not primetime television created the concept of Mischief Night.

So occasionally one of us will make a joke in-episode where my brain goes “Ding! Fodder for the write up” and then I have time to think on it, flush it out, edit out the dumb bits, or forget my original idea, have it again, and essentially…do the same thing, only faster and more of the dumb bits get left in. Anyway. That happened here and we’re doing the second version of it (hence that lead-in sentence being the lead-in.) So, for those who weren’t there, there was this time in the early-to-mid 2010s, right around the time A) the movie we’re talking about it coming out and B) Nerd/Fandom culture is kinda hitting the apex of where that’s going to go, where we loved combining different fandom IPs on t-shirts and mugs and stuff that we could take digital art and print it on. So think things like R2-D2 and C3PO riding on the Tardis, or it’s the Pink power ranger with that mean girls quote about wearing pink on Wednesdays, or Link and Zelda riding on Pokémon or whatever. So this joke in the episode led me to wonder if there were any Avengers x Arrested Development shirts like this and after about 10 minutes of internet searching, I’m coming up mostly empty, but I cannot shake the feeling they existed at one point. I can picture it in my mind: Tobias a blue Hulk, Iron Man as Gob using the Aztec Tomb with War Machine as his assistant, Black Widow as Maeby asking Cap where he got his “cross necklace” so she can go on a ski trip, Hawkeye driving the stair car while the Maximoffs ride on the back….yeah. The shirt draws itself. Or it would, if it were 2015 and I had any artistic abilities. Oh well. Anyway, we did an episode about Avengers: Age of Ultron. It’s a two-parter. This is the first part. Enjoy.
