From 2D classics like The Iron Giant and Lilo & Stitch, to stop motion and 3D films like The Nightmare Before Christmas and The Incredibles, we're dedicating this episode to our favorite animated movies from the 70s through today.
What began as the intro to our Stranger Things 5 wrap-up episode, turned into 20 minutes of video games talk, so we decided to spin it off into this bonus episode! Hear us swap stories about the games Santa left under the tree, and the ones we're looking forward to in 2026.
Now that the curtain has dropped on the final season (and series), we're going to the Upside Down one last time to share our spoiler-filled thoughts on the the final 4 episodes.
After a months-long hiatus, we're back with our year-end "Favorite Things" episode, where we gush about the movies and games that stood out in 2025, from demogorgans to demons, and monsters to heroes.Side note: We had some minor technical difficulties, so apologies in advance.
Was the JFK assassination an inside job? Did we really fake the moon landing? Is Taylor Swift actually a cyborg? Guest co-host "Jason-X" joins us this episode to talk about our favorite conspiracy theories.
We all know the Star Wars fanfare, the Indiana Jones march and the Superman theme, but what about some of the maestro's lesser known tracks? Guest host repeat offender Ryan Jenkins joins us this week as we listen to (and comment on) some deep cuts from John Williams' iconic scores.
We're kicking off Season 2 with mini-movie reviews from 2024...or was it 1984? Or 1994? With a new Ghostbusters flick, a Beetlejuice sequel, and a reboot of Twister, it's no wonder this year's film offerings felt...a little familiar.Joe and Joel are back to make sense of it all as we trade reviews of the retro films we (re)watched in 2024.
In the long-awaited final chapter of our Show & Tell series, Joe steps into the ring to gush about his love of pro wrestling, from Hulkamania through the "Attitude Era" and beyond.
On this All Hallow's Eve, special guest (and long-time listener) Kyle Hall joins us as we share our favorite movies, games and traditions for the Halloween season. All treats, no tricks.

To celebrate the release of the final film starring our favorite Fedora'd adventurer, we're releasing this 30-minute "mini" episode saved from the cutting room floor of last week's "Toys" episode. Jason Geyer of ToyOtter once again joins as we talk all things Indy, including the Young Indy TV series, and why there was such a lack of toys alongside the original trilogy.
Master-toymaker and aficionado Jason Geyer joins the podcast this week with a peak behind the curtain at how our favorite toys went from mold to market. Ever wonder why the paint on Luke Skywalker's nose was rubbed off? Or how they made Strawberry Shortcake smell so...strawberry-y? Jason's got those answers and more as we dig up the dirt behind your favorite toys.Check out Jason's Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/toyotter/ for a visual compendium to this fascinating episode.
Life is like a hurricane when you’re bouncing here and there and everywhere and you are the world’s most fearsome fighting team and we’re all a little looney and in this podcast we’re discussing the cartoonies that were invading our TVs!Join us for a high altitude look at the weekday and Saturday morning cartoons that made us the animation loving nerds that we are.

Be kind and rewind with us back to a simpler time when every Friday was a brand new battle to nab the one copy of Forrest Gump and not get stuck with Uncle Buck… again.
