Join Lily, Shawn, Scott, and special guest Hamish, joining them all the way from Australia, as they discuss the classic (and somewhat controversial) Simpsons episode: Bart Vs. Australia! Listen as Hamish sets the matters straight regarding all of the misrepresented aspects of Australian culture in this episode. Do Koalas create power outages? Is Foster's a popular Australian beer? How prevalent is boomerang throwing? Does Hamish eat kangaroos? How culturally accurate is the Outback Steakhouse? Hamish patiently fields all of these questions, and many more! A discussion that spans the globe! This episode is a bottle of beauty!

Join Lily, Shawn, and Scott as they review Atari: Game Over, the first documentary in Xbox Live's Signal to Noise series. Listen as they discuss the rise and fall of Atari Inc., the colossal commercial failure of E.T. The Game, the urban legend of the burial of millions of unsold E.T. The Game cartridges in a New Mexico landfill, and the years of undeserved blame placed on game designer Howard Scott Warshaw. From the Atari 2600 to Game Genie to Raspberry Pis to why having Steven Spielberg attached to your project may not necessarily be a good thing, they talk about it all!(Also Scott surprises the crew with a gift to commemorate the episode.) Hopefully this is one to phone home about!

Join Lily, Shawn, and Scott as they sit down for a bonus episode of Hitting Play to discuss some notable movies premiering in the summer of 2015. Listen to their takes on, and expectations of, what looks to be a very eventful summer for moviegoers. From Marvel Comics to Disney theme parks to assigned high school summer reading novels, these movies cover it all.

Movies discussed: Pitch Perfect 2, Tomorrowland, Ant Man, A Walk in the Woods, Jurassic World, and Fantastic Four. (Plus, Shawn had a few strong opinions on Inside Out and Vacation.)
