Open up the app and book your five star hotel as Jarrod and Rossi are here to discuss episode 7 of The Amazing Race 36. We chat about how intricately complicated navigation was this episode, cheer on the fans running over to ask for a photo, and laugh about all the different classifications of a plaza. We also wonder how tricky it is to lose your car, celebrate all the costumes and uncontrollable hats, and question how common it is to have a connection to welding.

Are we excited to be able to talk about Jeffrey Nordling again? How do we feel about Tony being evil after all these years? How amazing is Cherry Jones and why should she be queen?

It’s time to close out BAD MOVIE MONTH for another year and we do so with many apologies in advance as we sadly have to bring you the absolute turkey that is Independence Day: Resurgence from 2016. It’s terrible. It’s horrible. So don’t watch the movie. Ever. And probably don’t listen to this episode. Go do something valuable with your life instead. You’re welcome. Have a good day! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
It’s a game of alliances and people have opinions on that. Rossi and Jarrod are here to break down episode 6 of The Amazing Race 36. We complain on the lack of suspense in the episode, laugh about all the funny moments Derek and Shelisa delivered, and celebrate the awkward showdown at the beef challenge. We also question how poorly Leticia did at the roadblock, question the “fairness” of the alliance assistance, and worry for Angie’s health as she has to wear multiple hot costumes.

Another special 24 episode to come down your speakers today as we bring you a recap of the closest thing we ever got to a 24 movie, 24: Redemption! How epic is this movie? Are we glad in hindsight that we got this, even if it meant waiting around a long time for season 7? Why is Africa always in a weird yellow tint? How great is it to see Robert Carlyle in the 24 universe? How sad are we to see the end of Powers Boothe? How excited are we to see the start of Cherry Jones? What does Colin think of Carly Pope? Do we feel the Washington stuff adds to this movie or takes away from it? How does this movie create some problems for season 7? What does caged in a chain mean? Do we wish this was a season 1 prequel instead? Would this have been better on the big screen? And how would we rate this movie compared to all the other episodes?

We’re here for another SPOILER FREE REVIEW with a movie that we’re a bit behind in bringing you as we give you our thoughts on Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. Why are Ben and Colin so divided on this film? Why are the human characters in this movie still so bland and why does this franchise continue to fail at making them interesting? Does this movie look like it was made as a video game? Do we miss Aaron Taylor Johnson? Do we need more Godzilla in this movie or are we okay with hardly any Godzilla? What do we think of the music in this movie? And can Ben and Colin agree on anything with this film?

It’s time for another SPOILER FREE REVIEW as we FINALLY bring you our thoughts on the latest movie in the Ghostbusters franchise by going over Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire. Does this movie just have too many people in it? Is this movie the first good Ghostbusters sequel? Why are we happy there was something original happening in this movie? What do we think of the child characters in this film? Why don’t we get an original song this time around? Do we need more New York destruction scenes? Do we care about any of the random cameos from random actors in this movie that we don’t remember? And how does this rate among all the other Ghostbusters movies? Get yourself ready for another movie review and get excited! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
BAD MOVIE MONTH continues with another sequel considered to be far inferior to it’s original, as we switch back to 1997 and go over Speed 2: Cruise Control. Is this movie really as bad as people remember? How amazing is Willem Dafoe? Why is Jason Patric a thing and who is he? How has Sandra Bullock changed so much from the first movie to the second? Why is this on a boat? Why don’t we like any of the characters in this movie? Is the action at least entertaining? Is there some good music in this film? Why do we feel for the people of the Caribbean after their harbour is clearly destroyed forever after this movie? And why are we excited to once again talk about New Zealand’s most handsome man Temuera Morrison? There’s a lot to get to as always so tune in!  ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
It’s time for the Pan Am Games! Well… not really just at the location where they were held. Rossi and Jarrod are here to break down episode 5 of The Amazing Race 36. We discuss the very bizarre inclusion of Marilyn Monroe’s car, celebrate all the navigation problems and humor they provided, and support the production for providing comically oversized maps. We also wonder if we found the underdog team of the season, support the fact that there was an actual fight for first place, and wonder why they didn’t try to get Angie over that fence. Unless you are trying to turn around on the highway, then is an episode you’ll want to download. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
We brought you our first bonus 24 episode last week with our first animated parody episode, so now it’s time to bring you the second one as we give you South Park’s unique take on 24 by recapping their parody The Snuke, the 4th episode from their 11th season. How is this episode filled with so much dumb humour that it is genius? Does this episode do the parody of 24 better than The Simpsons did last week? Should we be calling ourselves names with ‘dawg’ at the end of it from now on? What bits of humour does the show nail perfectly when it comes to referencing 24? Does Colin understand the vagina references? And why would Noah fit in with this episode? Get yourself down to South Park to have a great time in this great episode! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
Another SPOILER FREE REVIEW coming your way today as we look at a movie that is perhaps a little close to home right now, Civil War! How much do we love this movie? Why do we like the style of this movie more so than we should? How incredible is Kirsten Dunst and should she be in Oscar contention after this? What do we think of the other cast? Do we need to know more about this plot or is it good to leave so much open ended? How great is the action? Do you need to see this movie on the big screen? And seriously, how great is this film? Come on board and stay for the action in one epic review! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
Our next BAD MOVIE MONTH is here with another BAD SEQUEL as we move into the movie that killed the Superman franchise for nearly 20 years, Superman IV: The Quest for Peace from 1987. Just how bad is this movie? Is it so bad it’s actually secretly good? Does Christopher Reeve give a very underrated performance in this movie? Why are we glad that some of the Two and a Half Men are in this movie? Do we understand the plot of this film? Why is the kid in this movie the worst? Should the sun have exploded with all the nuclear bombs in it? Is Superman basically a dictator who holds the world to ransom in this movie? And should this movie have Arnold Schwarzenegger in it instead? Lock yourselves down for another interesting episode that you won’t soon forget! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
The good episodes are back and so are your favorite podcasters! Rossi and Jarrod are here to talk about episode 4 of The Amazing Race 36.

We also get hype about the dog on the escalator, wonder about the longevity of these alliances, and question what was happening with the woman on the phone.

We’re here for the first part of a special two week extra episode stretch of our 24 coverage as we bring you a recap of The Simpsons episode that directly parodied the show we love, 24 Minutes, the 18th episode of the 21st season! How do we feel about this episode as an episode of The Simpsons? How do we feel about this episode as an episode of 24? Are we somewhat disappointed that there isn’t more Kiefer in this episode? Why are some of the jokes in this episode laugh out loud funny that was a rarity at the time in the world of The Simpsons? Would we like to be dumpster people? Would we have liked to have seen more 24 cast members in this episode? And does this make us want to cover more Simpsons episodes moving forward?

It’s time to get to your favourite month of the year with BAD MOVIE MONTH as we get into a month of bad sequels by starting with the infamous Jaws: The Revenge from 1987. Is this a movie that should have more of a cult following? Why should the makers of this film gone even more camp and silly with it to play into the premise? Is Lorraine Gary underrated as an actress? What do we think of Michael Caine in this movie? Do we believe Sharks roar? Why is the kid the worst in this movie? What scenes just don’t make sense in this movie? Why does the shark explode? And is this movie better than The Meg? It’s an interesting and fun one so get to listening! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
We’re back and your host, much like the teams, is a hot mess. Rossi, Jarrod, and Kristan sit down to chat about the exhilarating episode 3 of The Amazing Race 36. We chat about how let down we are by the production of the season, praise the early tower challenge and how it affected the rest of the leg, and dive into the emergent backpack strategy. We celebrate how great the cast is despite the season flaws, admire the editing of Anthony and Bailey during the detour, and question why Juan and Shane are risking their lives for 4th place.

We made it. We made it through Season 6 of 24. Phew! It was a tough one, but we did it and that means that we’re here to bring it all to a close as we wrap up the most contentious season in the history of the show in true Oz Network style! That means it’s time to go over all the big stories, the little ones, Jack being awesome, Jack being all over the place, Jack’s silly family drama, Jack being a vampire and all that other stuff that we somehow managed to get through! We then bring you all the big moments and find a way to rank just five of them all in our top 5 moments of the season, and then look ahead to what may be a very divided seventh season between our hosts! It’s the perfect way to close out another season of one of your favourite TV shows! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
We’re closing out GHOSTBUSTERS MONTH with the latest addition to the franchise by going over the 2021 film that is Ghostbusters: Afterlife! How do we feel about this movie? Is this movie filled with many of the same issues as the 2016 movie that nobody talks about? Why is there so little Paul Rudd and why do we want more Paul Rudd? Why does this franchise seemingly rely so much on cast members from Young Sheldon? Are the child actors in this movie great or very annoying? Why is there too much nostalgia in this film? What do we think of the Harold Ramis tribute? What do we think of Oklahoma? What do sippy cups have to do with anything? And what is the big 24 connection we discover exists in this movie?

Much like the show we are continuing with the race in Mexico. Rossi and Jarrod are here to break down episode 2 of The Amazing Race 36. We share our thoughts of how much of a hot mess the teams are, debate whether these forced rivalries are working for the show, and question how hard it is to find a bridge. We also criticize the low budget challenges and wonder if Danny’s version of the show has greater production value, wonder if certain competitors were going to survive the heat exhaustion, and wonder how teams confuse a park for a bridge. Unless you are busy searching the internet to figure out who Elizabeth Taylor is, then you’ll want to download this episode. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
It’s finally here! The finale of season 6 of 24! HOORAY! And we actually are excited to bring it to you today with a fairly solid episode as we recap episode 24, 5am-6am. How epic is this episode? How epic are the explosions? Why does the scene with Jack and his dad just fall so flat? Why is the President Suvarov all of a sudden so nice to Vice President Daniels? Do we care about Chloe being pregnant? How lucky is Jack that the helicopter he falls off is near Heller’s house? Is the last ten minutes among the best ten minutes in the history of the show? And how high will we rank the final ten minutes in our overall top five of this season? It’s an epic way to end a season we’re glad is over so tune in! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
