So Will checked out The Incredible Hulk and found out that he liked it more than Iron Man. Meanwhile, both of us checked out Chris Bell's steroid documentary Bigger, Stronger, Faster: Side Effects of Being American. And what better time to talk about a documentary that focuses on America's obsession with being bigger than while also talking about the not-so-jolly Green Giant? Check out what we thought of both in the new:The Incredible Hulk meets Bigger, Stronger, Faster podcast
Afterwards, check out Zach's review of Bigger, Stronger, Faster

THANKS FOR PROMOTING BIGGER STRONGER FASTER* AS YOU SAY IT'S UP AGAINST THE HULK AND BIGGER HOLLYWOOD BUDGETS. BUT, IT IS A FILM THAT PEOPLE SHOULD GO SEE, RIGHT NOW IT'S IN LIMITED THEATERS. SO MANY ARE TOUCHED BY IT AND LEARNED SO MUCH FROM IT. THERE WERE 2 YOUNG TEEN BOYS, WHO JUST SAW IT IN POUGHKEEPSIE NY WHERE IT'S PLAYING UNTIL THIS THURSDAY. THEY CAME UP TO US & SAID "I WAS GOING TO BUY STEROIDS & START USING STERIODS BUT AFTER SEEING THIS MOVIE, THEY SAID "I WOULD NEVER TAKE THEM NOW OR EVER" THEY WERE VERY EMOTIONAL & VERY TOUCHED. FAMILY PART IS IN THERE FOR THE FACT THAT ALL THE SPORTS "HEROS & HOLLYWOOD ICONS" DIDN'T WANT TO TALK ON CAMERA. WE WERE UNAWARE OF OUR OTHER BOYS HAVING TRIED STEROIDS, OR THE EFFECT OF THE ICONS ON THEM. ASIDE FROM HULK HOGAN, STALLONE AND ARNOLD, CHRIS IDOLIZED TERRY BRADSHAW, AS DID MANY, HE JUST ADMITTED HE TOOK STEROIDS WHILE PLAYING FOR THE STELLERS. COME ON DOES IT NEVER STOP. THIS YOUNG MAN & HIS BROTHER WERE VERY TOUCHED ESPECIALLY BY OUR ELDEST SON MICHAEL WHO HAS SINCE GONE FOR HELP AND IS GOING TO MEETINGS AND HOPES TO HELP OTHERS NOT TO TAKE DRUGS. MARK WENT OFF OF THEM AND WENT ON TO HAVE ANOTHER CHILD. THIS MOVIE HAS BEEN GIVEN HIGH CRITICAL ACCLAIM, AND I HAVE NOT RESPONDED TO ANYONE, BUT FELT LEAD TO REPLY TO YOU, TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I APPRECIATE YOUR REVIEW AGAINST THE HULK AND OTHER BIG BUDGET SUPERHERO MOVIES, NOT THAT I'M AGAINST THEM, THEY HAVE THEIR PLACE.MY PRAYER IS THAT SO MANY MORE TEENS & PARENTES WILL SEE IT TOGETHER AND OPEN A DIALOG, AS YOU CAN TELL IN THE FILM, I WAS TOLD ON CAMERA AND HAD NO IDEA THAT CHRISTOPHER TRIED THEM AND MARK. YOU REFER TO MY WEIGHT AND THAT'S FINE, IT'S TRUE I AM OVERWEIGHT, AND THAT IS THE VERY REASON I DID NOT EVEN QUESTION OUR OTHER 2 SONS AS THEY STRUGGLED TO NOT BE, AS ME & THERE DAD STRUGGLED ALL OUR LIVES WITH WEIGHT ISSUSE & WHEN I SAW THEY WERE GETTING HEAVIER, I NEVER EVER THOUGHT IT WAS FROM STEROIDS. BOTH MARK/CHRIS WON ALL OF THEIR HS AND COLLEGE WT LIFTING COMPETITION CLEAN AND WERE VERY MUCH AGAINST STEROID USE. THEY WERE VERY STRONG W/O THEM, AND WON CHAMPIONSHIPS W/O THEM. THERE IS A TIME AND A SEASON AND A PURPOSE FOR EVERTHING UNDER HEAVEN AND I BELIEVE THE LORD CAN USE ALL OF OUR LIVES FOR HIS PURPOSE. THANKS YOU ROSEMARY BELL
