On this episode of A Little Snack, Monolith talks about how, while flying, he endured the obscenity that is 'Star Trek: Into Darkness' and Bear Trap reminisces about the dearly departed author of techno-thriller airport fiction, Tom Clancy. And at the END of the podcast, (like good podcasters do), the meth-heads talk about the end of AMC's 'Breaking Bad'. Surprisingly, they manage to hold back the tears. Discussed: the best and worst Star Trek movies, at what point 'Into Darkness' stops being good and starts being the worst thing to happen to the franchise, Tom Clancy's lasting contribution to culture, his unusual connection to 9/11, Key and Peele's return and when to look for the return of Mousecop, a Word of the Week that isn't exactly what you would call fully baked, a Monolith moment that puts Bear Trap on the spot, what the podcasters understand about ABC's new show 'Agents of SHIELD' without either of them actually having seen it, thoughts on a few moments Monolith saw of one episode of the new NBC actioner 'Blacklist', and then spoiler-iffic 'Breaking Bad' talk in which the Trap and the 'Lith talk about the final 75-minute episode and the entire series as a whole and where one might reasonably rank it among all TV shows. It's good and you will enjoy it.
