It was murder! On Mars! The discovery of a dead body last week leads to an inflammatory perp walk, a mysterious and unlogged cargo transfer, and an exciting car chase (but with hoppers). Also, there’s at least one more pasta night with the Baldwins. And maybe there’s life on Titan? Dan Moren and Jason Snell.
It’s time to Mind Meld again, where five contestants across six rounds have second thoughts about being wrong in order to be at one with each other for points. Except for the seventh round, where they have to be right. Tony Sindelar and Kathy Campbell with Annette Wierstra, Dan Moren, Glenn Fleishman, Shelly Brisbin and Lex Friedman.
The party fights another hard battle, locates another organ, and gets some answers from an unexpected source. Tony Sindelar with Bryan Guffey, Erika Ensign, Jason Snell, Mikah Sargent and Sarah Hendrica Bickerton.
Daredevil is back and he’s got a sinking feeling something fishy is going down in the East River. The second season of Marvel’s Daredevil: Born Again returns as we find WIlson Fisk (AKA Kingpin) as Mayor of New York City and, as you might expect, he’s up to no good. But how’s the show itself? We let you know. Dan Moren, John Moltz and Guy English.
Hit the books and polish up your comm badges, because it’s time to go to school—“Starfleet Academy,” that is. We check in on the first season of Star Trek’s latest (and last, for now?) TV series, and find that despite the YA focus, it’s still just really good “Star Trek” that’s worth your attention. Jason Snell with Dan Moren, Erika Ensign, Moisés Chiullán and Tony Sindelar.
Get on your Mars bike and get ready to do some cool jumps! “For All Mankind” is back, and the NASA Vending Machine is restocked! But season 5 brings Domino’s and Starbucks to Mars, so who knows what else might be in store on the red planet? This episode helps us get reaquainted with the show, recaps what’s been going on in the decade since last season, and starts to put all the pieces in place for whatever story is about to be laid out before us. Dan Moren and Jason Snell.
Happy Opening Day! It’s Gary Cooper as Lou Gehrig, in our first baseball episode. And yes, it’s all LTS inside baseball this week. We complain about the lack of actual baseball in this movie, suggest other movies with more baseball and go on a complete tangent halfway through, that no one would let me edit out. But first, listener mail! Shelly Brisbin with Micheline Maynard, David J. Loehr and Randy Dotinga.
Love of wisdom means never having to say you’re sorry. Professor Marina McCoy joins her husband to discuss Plato’s The Apology (c. 399-90 BCE). John McCoy with Marina McCoy.
Excellent role play including medical exams, impromptu nakedness, soothing music, and door-knocking meant the entire party gained inspiration! Tony didn’t award it until after the recording was over, but it did happen! Tony Sindelar with Bryan Guffey, Erika Ensign, Jason Snell, Mikah Sargent and Sarah Hendrica Bickerton.
This week we cover the 2003 movie Daredevil. Starring Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner, and Colin Farrell. A movie with enough Dutch angles to build a city of windmills. After we get through that we talk about the trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Dan Moren, John Moltz and Guy English.
Listener Tom really wants us to explain what it means if someone is “out of pocket.” This leads to some existential questions about the pocket and the people who may not be in it. John Siracusa and Jason Snell.
Steven and Erika finish off “Revenge of the Cybermen” — and Season 12 of Doctor Who! And no need to email us — immediately after recording, Steven discovered the “heartbeat” music cue was Peter Howell, not Carey Blyton. Erika regrets her incorrect guess! (Ok not really. No actual regrets. Everyone is wrong sometimes!) Erika Ensign and Steven Schapansky.
Erika and Steven discuss what makes a good Cybermen story, and whether this is that. Erika Ensign and Steven Schapansky.
Steven and Erika issue corrections, then talk about direction, music, and other assorted nonsense. Erika Ensign and Steven Schapansky.
Erika and Steven (finally) dive into the first Cybermen story they’ve covered in ages! Erika Ensign and Steven Schapansky.
The son of a man convicted of murder faces bullying, then suspicion when he is accused of a crime, too. Directed by Frank Borzage, the film is moody, dark and a bit gothic. Dane Clark and Gail Russell are your leads, with a late-film appearance by Ethel Barrymore. And you’ll hate young Lloyd Bridges. Noir czar Eddie Muller calls Borzage ‘relentlessly romantic,” which is a huge contrast to this film, which Muller ranks it among his top 25 noir films. Shelly Brisbin with Randy Dotinga, Nathan Alderman and Micheline Maynard.
The team is clearly eyeing their future while the fate of the network lies in the balance. Rebecca returns, Natalie and Jeremy are back with full hearts in orbit around each other, and Clark Gregg is there with his inexplicable sideburns. It’s the final episode of Sports Night; but, don’t worry friends, it’s not the final episode of Sorkin’ In It. Want to know what we’re doing next? Stick around. This episode is can’t miss. The future? Can’t lose. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.
Jason was on “Jeopardy!” Now he breaks the experience down with the help of two former “Jeopardy!” champions, Glenn Fleishman and Dan Moren. Jason Snell with Dan Moren and Glenn Fleishman.
Welcome back to “Inconceivable!”, the show that tests two teams’ knowledge of the nerdy, the useless, and the obscure. This time around, our panelists must divine means of telling the future, identify portrayers of the world’s greatest detective not named Batman, and untangle mashed-up superhero song titles. Kathy Campbell, Chip Sudderth, and Shelly Brisbin take on Monty Ashley, Annette Wierstra, and Tony Sindelar in a battle of wits to the pain as host Dan Moren and scorekeeper Lex Friedman keep order. Dan Moren and Lex Friedman with Kathy Campbell, Chip Sudderth, Shelly Brisbin, Monty Ashley, Annette Wierstra and Tony Sindelar.
Only the worst battles are followed by an autopsy. Tony Sindelar with Bryan Guffey, Erika Ensign, Jason Snell, Mikah Sargent and Sarah Hendrica Bickerton.
