Our belated holiday present to you… the triumphant return of Robbie Benedict (aka Robert Patrick Benedict)! Robbie responds to a cease-and-desist letter, makes some audio engineering gaffs, and sends out a secret offer to his Supernatural fans. Will you get choked out by Robbie at the next Supernatural convention? Enjoy the last MNBF of the decade (good times… good times…)

The Terror of “The Search for Santa Paws” is now over, and our beloved John Ducey is back home. Greeting him is young whipper-snapper Devin Barry (actor and co-host of the Flick Fights podcast, official podcast of Flickchart.com). Devin regales us on his internet based twitter web 2.0 relationships and other things that Ducey and Greg are too old to understand. We also finish the "What Would Ducey Pick" movie game from last week. Will Devin's predictions be perfect, or be undermined by Greg talking up the other films too much? Music is, as always, from Robbie Benedict's Louden Swain (he is always with us)! Look for Louden Swain on iTunes or loudenswain.com.

Oh, "The Search for Santa Paws!" This prequel movie's Canadian schedule has kept our star John Ducey for making a podcast taping this week. So we have our very own prequel of Episode 4, a bonus episode with Devin Barry (actor and co-host of the Flick Fights podcast on iTunes). Devin and Greg nerd-out on movies and play the game "What Would Ducey Pick?" Were Devin's choices correct? Stay tuned to Episode 4 Actual, coming soon!

Matt Corboy joins us. Matt played Ray Carlson on "The Shield" (the best cop show of all time despite what Greg says...), but you may also know him as the color commentator to the world. Is Matt's encyclopedic knowledge of Ducey's filmography genuine, or driven by IMDB? Will we ever know? Greg also makes a Norm Crosby reference. Music, as always, is by Louden Swain. Look for their new album "A Brand New Hurt" on iTunes!

This week, we welcome hilarious comedy actor and mix-tape expert Ike Barinholtz (MAD-TV, Meet the Spartans). Can the man who can jump the line at Magic Mountain jump the line to John Ducey's heart? Ducey is calling from his Disney Channel movie set home for the next few weeks, so we are going to have a several Skype shows in a row before all parties are back in LA. If he is allowed back. Our music the song "Better" from Louden Swain. Find this track (with lyrics) and more from their new album, A Brand New Hurt, at www.loudenswain.com or at iTunes.

John Ducey, television actor and fake father of the Jonas Brothers, lost his best friend when his childhood buddy Chris moved from LA. So with the help of moderator Greg Rice, John has conversations with not-best-friends in an attempt to find a New Best Friend. We start strong. In the opener, we welcome good-but-not-best-friend Robbie Benedict (aka Chuck Shurley from the CW's "Supernatural"). Robbie's band also supplies the intro-outro music for the show. Thanks to Louden Swain for the song "Better" from their new album, A Brand New Hurt. To hear the song with words, and lots of other great music, to www.loudenswain.com or search for Louden Swain on iTunes.
