Didja know October is Eat Country Ham Month? Me neither. But clearly such an important holiday deserves a theme song. Enter Meat Parade, a retro-style novelty record that cheerfully declares “With bacon, knockwurst, ham or lamb – you’ll never beat that meat!”

When I was growing up, I always loved those vinyl records with pictures on them. I had all the Disney music from those kids movies, along with the Dukes of Hazzard photo LP and one for E.T.

Way before The Matrix, Point Break, Speed, and John Wick, Keanu Reeves did the ’80s proud with Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure. I loved that movie, and true fans will be glad to get hands on a this collectible vinyl LP that has surfaced over at ThinkGeek.

I’ve said before that I am a big Fallout fan. I have played all the games in the franchise, and while I like Fallout 4 the best of all, Fallout 3 was tons of fun as well.

Jim Henson released the weird and cool movie Labyrinth back in 1986, and while it wasn’t a huge hit back in the day, it’s gone on to become a classic. Beyond the cool puppetry, one of the most notable things about the flick was David Bowie played the bad guy Goblin King.

I really like the HBO series Westworld. Unlike Game of Thrones, I was able to get into Westworld right away, and loved every episode. I’m not that into the music scene, so I didn’t even realize that the piano in the bar was playing modern music until the episode where Black Hole Sun was being played.

When I was growing up in the ’80s, I stayed home by myself pretty much all summer. This was in the days before cable and Netflix so you watched what was on TV and were glad for it.

I have Pac-Man fever and it’s driving me crazy, especially after I saw Inside the Magic’s footage of people playing the world’s largest Pac-Man game. Ms. Pac-Man too. This giant version of the classic arcade game was spotted at the Bandai Namco booth at IAAPA Attractions Expo 2016 in Alexandria, Virginia.

Adventure Time fans will want to just go ahead and get out your wallets, and pick up this vinyl record that has 38 musical tracks from seasons 1-7 on it. Among the tracks are the theme song for the show and the “Bacon Pancakes” tune that will stick in your brain forever.

Normally, when I want to relax and block out the sounds of the world, I turn on the White Noise app on my iPhone, and crank it up. But if you want something a little different to help you unwind, check this out.

Space geeks are going to love this. Remember Carl Sagan’s message for extraterrestrials? Right now it is about 13 billion miles away from Earth aboard the Voyager I spacecraft. Hopefully some aliens (or the crew of the Enterprise) will find it soon.

I don’t care how many versions of the original Star Wars soundtrack you own, you need this latest re-issue of John Williams’ classic soundtrack for A New Hope. Why, you ask? This time all of your favorite tracks are available on a pair of double-sided picture disc-pressed vinyl records.

Growing up I was really into vinyl records that had images on them. They were called picture discs if memory serves, and I had a bunch of them with soundtracks from different Disney movies on them.

Growing up, I was a big fan of ’80s TV shows like the Dukes of Hazzard, Magnum P.I. and a slew of others. In fact, I had the vinyl album of Mike Post theme songs from a bunch of those shows and jammed that record all the time.

Who knew that tortillas were so versatile? Not only can they wrap food, but it turns out that they can act as a record and play music if you use a laser cutter to etch grooves into its floury surface.

This accomplishment must have cost this guy his sanity. You see those stats? Those are the stats for the first person known to have unlocked all of the 2057 achievements currently available in World of Warcraft.
