ProCo Episode 144: Wonka in the House – Monopoly

Lets crunch the numbers. We got Monopoly, a board game that everyone knows but no one really likes. We got a half hour span of tv air time in 1990. Put those hands together and you have a pretty boring game show that we don’t really want to talk about all that much. Result: 20+ minutes of Willy Wonka discussion and some personal takes on capitalism to boot.

Zach discovers a Mouse Trap game show, Jared knows too much about the second Wonka book, and Adam spins up some impromptu board game trivia.

Talking Points Include: Wonka Talk, The Four Deaths of Merv Griffin, Fixing Presidential Pardons, Sexy Theme Song, Webopoly, Flash Videos, Bad Board Game Varieties, That’s Monopoly Baby Bop

ProCo Episode 139: Augustus Gloop Flavored Axe – Singled Out

The World is always telling you “No.” No, you can’t come into the factory without a Golden Ticket. No, you can’t chew that bubble gum or you’ll turn into a blueberry. Get off of that camera Mike, or you’re gonna get zapped into the TV. In a world full of “No’s”, only one body wash is brave enough to say “Yes, go ahead and shove yourself face first into that chocolate river.”

Zach thinks of James Bond ice cream flavors, Jared wants to meet a Geico mascot, and Adam comes up with a killer slogan.

Talking Points Include: All Hail the King, Double-O Raisins, A Stinky Garbage Gameshow, The Axe Marketing Team are Cowards, A Free Dinner Would Be Nice
