We are finally back with our new microphones which would normally be cause for celebration but something fucked up, resulting in a static noise for 2 straight episodes. Do your best to power through and I promise the issue will be resolved by episode 44. We switched from USB to analog microphones and apparently weren't ready for that sort of pressure.
In this episode we talk about what we did in our long layoff and choose celebrities that we feel will die in 2015. It's a major bummer.
For the fourth time, Phoenix flies solo and as his name suggests, he crashes and burns. But alas, he is reborn all in the same episode. He talks about people that bitch about athlete salaries, Netflix and its confusing specific genre titles, reveals he recently watched Sons Of Anarchy and Peaky Blinders, talks about Christmas and Christmas movies, boring New Years in your 30's, reads a note he wrote on Facebook to his number 1 fan and ends it all with a review of Stretch, Annabelle and The House Of Last Things. Fuck those last 2 movies. Seriously.
Phoenix flies solo for the third time. He talks about seeing UFC in Phoenix, going to Phoenix Comicon Fan Fest, his amazement at playing video games on his cell phone on a PS4, buying his first adult pair of sweatpants, a Walking Dead spinoff and The Interview being pulled from theaters and his conspiracy theories that go nowhere.
Phoenix flies solo for the second time in show history. This is the 100th episode of the LIW network and it's a special one. By that we mean Phoenix rambles on about Thanksgiving, Ferguson, Black Friday, IPA beers, Star Wars trailer, Jurassic World trailer, The Hobbit 3 trailer and some other shit as well.
Phoenix flies solo for the first time in show history. He talks about a lot of random shit including seeing Doug Benson live and accidentally getting a contact high, he watched the 2008 Super Bowl and saw a Myspace ad and thinks the zombie apocalypse happened on Myspace, how the Boston Celtics have the only mascot in history that is smoking, officially being too old for amusement park rides due to the pain afterward and he kills the Laws Of Life segment officially and proceeds to introduce his TINM! movie review segment.
Mario is back to discuss our most random topics yet.
Phoenix and Bri saw Pete Holmes.
The inventor of Operation is a 77 year old that can’t afford a dental operation.
Tennessee man tries to convince a cop he’s Denzel Washington. It doesn’t work.
Phoenix attempts to give the state of Tennessee a compliment but only after sifting through a story about a shit covered bathroom.
Brent learns how ears work when he removes his headphones and expects to not hear us spoil a movie.
We talk about identity theft and how it’s a minor inconvenience until suddenly it’s the worst thing ever.
Phoenix met rap super-group MMK (Money Makin’ Krew) and they insisted they would be famous soon. For real. But they might also change their name to MMKK (Money Makin’ Krew Kids). For real.
Iraqi man is building an exact replica of The White House. For…something.
A push to get non-US citizens to be sent to the US to get their ebola treated.
A two person laws of life where Phoenix and Joe complain about cowboys.
Phoenix tells a story about how terrible of a babysitter he was at 15.
We have a serious debate about giving attitude to cops even when they are wrong.
It was our Halloween episode so we watched Jason X and now we are confused why cowboys exist in the year 2455. Is your horror movie franchise starting to slip in the rental department? Fuck it! Head to space! That's what Jason X does for some reason. It follows the footsteps of other horror movie franchises Leprechaun and Hellraiser. This movie felt like soft-core porn without the tits. Although there is male nipple play that we found very erotic. Erotic and completely necessary in the middle of an already ridiculous plot.
We watched Timecop and now we have a craving for a guy doing the splits in short shorts. This movie is amazing. It managed to be a movie about JCVD kicking people in the face while not ONLY being a movie about JCVD kicking people in the face. It has an insane plot that they barely touch on. More time is spent explaining the fact that a man wants to become president. We recommend watching Timecop.
We watched Mortal Kombat and found out that Joe is basically a bottomless pit of information about the series. Odd for a man that's done so little mortal combatting in his life. This is the fighting movie for people that love spelling errors.
UPDATE - Originally this was The Phoenix West Show video episode #4. When that show merged with LIW it became LIW episode 48. (Originally aired 9.22.14)
On this episode of The Phoenix West Show, I decided to watch a movie that was recent enough to hold your attention. I watched X-Men: Days Of Future Past. The most confusing title since Speed 2: Cruise Control and Major League: Back To The Minors. It's either one or the other, choose one. Is it the future or the past? We may never know. However, I did watch the movie and surprise, for once I enjoyed it. That didn't stop me from making fun of it. Listen/watch and tell me what you think.
I watched Cursed and now I want to know where the holy fuck Joshua Jackson went. Is he on the Josh-island with Josh Hartnett? Oh, plus there is a bit of news on the show front after the review so listen up!
In this episode we talk about:
Suge Night being shot.
Baltimore assault caught on camera.
Toledo Woods claims daughters Barbie says ‘fuck’ but it really says "hook." Hence the title of the episode.
Man wanted for armed bank robbery arrested at ultimate frisbee tournament.
Melvin Hunt a teacher cut off woman’s hair during a hug.
We tackle more of the 800 random questions.

Doug / Arthur
News - weasel shit in beer
Balls on pizza
Drake quotes
Pope car stolen to move coke and pot
Golf clap

UPDATE - Originally this was Midnight In Wonderland video episode. When that show merged with LIW it became LIW episode 58. (Originally aired 9.15.14)
In this installment we learned the true timeline of WW2. Turns out we were all wrong. Puppet Master had it right and now we have to get busy rewriting our history books. Heil history!
Johnny Depp stops by LIW Studios. Phoenix attempts to interview him but gets enraged when JD refuses to speak at an acceptable volume. Plus the place was lousy with scarves. Phoenix ends the interview early from rage.
Check out the other shows on the LIW network on iTunes, YouTube and Stitcher!
Charles Barkley showed up out of nowhere and demanded a ride to U.S. Airways where the Phoenix Suns play. Before the drive he recorded an interview with Phoenix. It didn't go well.
Phoenix was joined by legendary actor Al Pacino for a 1 on 1 interview that resulted in 2 blown eardrums and several blown microphones. Phoenix tried his best to get along with Pacino but ended up hating him just like all the other celebrity guests. Pacino broke down crying and decided to move into the LIW studios. He still hasn't left and this episode was recorded months ago. HE WILL NOT LEAVE...
In this episode we talked about:
First up is Laws Of Life about 'manly' shit. The manly man culture about beards and bacon.
We talk about the fashionability of 'jorts', men with earrings and cargo shorts.
The Chick-fil-a founder died.
Philadelphia is the next place to legalize marijuana. This leads to a discussion about if we smoke the drugs or not. We do not. Then we talk about Mexican foods for a while for some reason.
Mario got an adult circumcision. We are all amazed.
Jack The Ripper's identity has been revealed. Nobody gives a shit.
More 800 questions.
We all reveal the backstories on our names.
We finish with sex. Just like every date Brent has ever been on. Actually we mostly talk about masturbation. Just like every date Brent has actually even been on.
In this episode we talk about:
What animals would/wouldn't we eat, given the chance. Would we eat a person-burger?
We recorded while Arizona was in a state of emergency due to record setting amounts of rain. The studio was flooded. It wasn't fun.
News: Ray Rice fired by the Ravens for that whole argument he settled with his fist. Phoenix predicts that Rice will end up with either the Bengals or Raiders because that's where criminals go.
Airline doesn't allow a 600 pound woman to fly to her doctor which leads to her death. Her husband sues the airline for $6M. Joe legit falls asleep during the story. Then we talk about Tracy Morgan suing Walmart for probably half a billion monies.
ISIS issues isolated misused association of asinine assembled assassins. I don't know. ISIS is apparently a real thing, not just the company that Sterling Archer works for. We debate who is selling them guns. We aren't very political but pretend to be.
Roller coaster at Six Flags catches on fire. Allegedly.
Morgan Freeman lands plane after multiple malfunctions. Sounds epic right? But in reality he fucked up and then fixed it. So basically he saved his own ass.
Panera Bread asks politely for customers to not bring guns in their restaurants. Then we talk about the whole girl shooting a man in the face with an uzi.
Laws Of Life is about how boring and played-out exorcism scenes are in movies. No more of them.
We watched 47 Ronin and liked 12 out of the 47. This movie stars the white devil. It's about roning. To be honest, we weren't really sure what it was about. Something about righting a wrong that can only end in mass suicide. Fucking stupid. It was The Last Samurai mixed with 300 and TMNT 3. Terrible shit all around.
