Oh here we are. Took 12 years and hours and hours of talking to get to this point, but we are at 500 Episodes. A Show so big I had to split it into 2 episodes just to get the people involved that we wanted and needed. 

First up the show welcomes long time Producer Bobby back. We haven't seen Bobby in a long while and it's nice to have him around for a show. Also making an appearance is our favorite liberal  Jason Kull. 

From there we venture back to the original guest on the Q. Episode one features our host Mark and long time film producer and director Anthony Cabral. Well even with moving and living in Chicago now, he couldn't be stopped from returning to the airwaves to chop it up with Mark and discuss Russia and a few other news stories. 

Then it is on to the main event. For years the Tournament of Pop culture was a mainstay on the show! There is no way an episode goes by without a throwback to the TOPC! This TOPC is perfect and a long time in the coming. 
Mark and the boys dive into figuring out the best Animated TV Series/Show of all time. Some true Icons and heavy hitters on the list. Did your show make the cut? Did it Win? Find out on the 500th Episode of The Q....Part 1!

Mark Bland and Jason Kull realize it ihas been a crazy week in the world. We had a man jump on stage on live tv and decide to slap a fellow artist. And this wasn't just anyone, this was WILL SMITH and he slapped comedian CHRIS ROCK...and at the Oscars of all place. 

But the breakdown on this goes deeper and Mark discusses with Jason about the implications for the people that were watching at home and the all the intersecting cultures that movies and money touch. 

Also Mark and Jason discuss their pasts and some of their experiences in other businesses in regards to over the top situations they have dealt with while working.

Finally the guys decide that they want to see what Ranker has  for the top Grunge songs of the 1990's. This doesn't pan out but the guys settle on a list of the best ROCK songs of the 1990's (which inlcuded a ton of grunge). Do the ones that made the list, make your list? Listen and find out!
