The Butterfly Effect: Part 4

Thanks to their childhood musings, two pop culture observers/zany podcasters/ and excellent friends have braved the ghosts of their pasts to talk about goth hair, skate fashion and Ashton Kutcher’s face in this month’s series of episodes on the Mothman Prophesies. Sorry, that was wishful thinking. I meant the Butterfly Effect.

We had a ball during the recording for this episode with well over an hour of material that was just three friends having a good time regardless of the task at hand. It’s been cut down to just the gaffes, anecdotes and singalongs that you’re going to want to hear before we say goodbye to the Butterfly effect for good.

Sorry, that was wishful thinking. I meant the Butterfly Effect.

The Butterfly Effect has changed us in ways we could not have predicted. It is because of the infinite variables that we cannot have anticipated. Luckily, in this edutainment episode, Helena Handbasket is here to give you the essentials on the Chaos Theory. At least enough to throw up your hands and give up on predicting how anything will ever go. What’s more, if you’re looking to retain this and want to write it down, Ben Silverio is hitting us with the skinny on composition notebooks. Be ready for your mind to blow.

With the strange ability to own a cool watch, two pop culture observers/zany podcast sidekicks/guys named Ben have faced the torture of a children’s film made by Bill S. Preston Esquire to bring you some fun and maybe a little hope through a breakdown of time travel media.

For every recording here at Time 2 Party, a little digression is bound to find its way in. With twice the Ben there’s an exponential chance of flubs as well. So, check out this episode full of all the material that had to be cut from our full session to make coherent episodes.

Now it’s time to talk about the tech of this movie and the Bens held nothing back. They each went for a key piece of tech from the plot of the movie. Imagine if we’d done DeLoreans and Mr. Fusion for Back to the Future. It’s like that. Grab a hold of something that’s bolted down because this edutainment episode is going straight to the Rustbucket and the Omnitrix. Whether you’re a fan like Ben and Ben or a newbie like Ansel, this episode will help give context and meaning to the Race Against Time.

From the distant, curvy future of the 2030’s two pop culture observers/zany podcast sidekicks/most excellent friends have put on their most outlandish leotard suits to give you some fun and maybe a little hope through a breakdown of time travel media.

This episode is from our second recording session, back in September of 2020. The Pandemic put us on pause for seven months. We tried recording in person in Ben’s backyard under the O’Hare bound flight path. While we still had a lot to learn, including recording remotely for the rest of the season, this was a great conversation. So, please put on your robot hats and enjoy this bonus recording and judge us by the other, better work we released prior to this.

This is our first episode for this 1990 classic. This series changed the lives of everyone who works on this show and is largely why we are doing the show in the first place.
