Can Glen Powell really headline a remake of an Arnold Schwarzenegger cult classic? The Running Man (2025) says “hell yes.” Jim and A.Ron talk updated themes, tightened storytelling, and an action style that turns Powell into a legitimate contender for the Bald Move Badass Rankings. If the original was a blood-soaked game show, this version is the prestige reboot — shaped by Edgar Wright’s precise fingerprints.
A.Ron and guest theorist-in-chief Pete Peppers dive into Pluribus Episode Three, “Grenade”, breaking down the rules of the hive mind and what Vince Gilligan might have planned for the future of the show. They unpack Carol’s chaotic cocktail, her blasé reaction to literal luxury at the edge of the world, and what the show might be hinting about the un-assimilated stragglers. Plenty of theories, plenty of laughs, and zero consensus on whether the hive mind is a good deal or a cosmic red flag.

Star Trek. The final frontier. These are the podcasts of three enthusiastic nerds.

Jim and A.Ron are diving into the early Amazon Original show: Patriot (2015). Michael Dorman stars as Jack Tavner, a severely depressed spy sent by his father to prevent a nuclear program developing in the Middle East.

Star Trek. The final frontier. These are the podcasts of three enthusiastic nerds. Meet Captain John Christopher: a man out of time and definitely out of his depth.

Jim, A.Ron, and Talitha debate the stock footage, the time travel, and whether Christopher deserves all that condescension.

Jim and A.Ron are serving up a big plate of a** jerky. At this point in the season, Fallout has established a great balance of humor within the darkness.

What happens when the Predator stops stalking humans and becomes the hunted? The beady-eyed little freak of the Yautja clan stars in Predator: Badlands.

On its 70th Anniversary, what does Rebel Without a Cause (1955) teach us about ourselves today?

Will Jim and A.Ron be able to relate to Nicholas Ray’s classic film? Does James Dean speak to us today as he did with audiences of previous generations?
Star Trek. The final frontier. These are the podcasts of three enthusiastic nerds. Meet Trelane: Once a God of War, now just a naughty small boy.
