Before the intro even starts, Tim Rick Rolls Nelson. Yep. That's how this episode begins.After that completely unnecessary betrayal, Nelson and Tim get a little more educational than usual and dive into three documentaries covering history, artificial intelligence, money, and the questionable things people will do for it.First up is Band of Brothers Legacy on HBO Max, followed by The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist on Netflix, exploring the promises, possibilities, and potential nightmares of artificial intelligence.Then they take on Everybody Is Lying to You for Money on Prime Video, a documentary about the crypto industry and the hype, pitfalls and questionable behavior that can come with chasing the next big digital fortune.So, this week we've got history, AI, money, deception—and one extremely unnecessary Rick Roll before we've even officially started.Chapters:0:00 Intro7:58 Band of Brothers Legacy16:46 The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist34:04 Everybody Is Lying to You for Money

There is A LOT of TV happening right now.Nelson and Tim attempt to keep up with the latest season finales, returning favorites, and brand-new shows in Ep. 180: New TV Galore!The guys tackle The Gentlemen Season 2 on Netflix, the Reacher Season 4 finale on Prime Video, Chad Powers Season 2 on Hulu, Brothers and Slow Horses Season 6 on Apple TV+.But before they dive into all that TV, there's an important question to settle: Should you actually go see Avengers: Endgame: Encore in theaters? Tim has a hot take—and, naturally, he is always right!Five shows. One movie. Several strong opinions. And absolutely no guarantee that your watchlist will be any shorter when we're done.Chapters:0:00 Intro2:50 Avengers: Endgame: Encore10:52 The Gentlemen — Season 217:40 Reacher — Season 428:55 Chad Powers — Season 237:10 Brothers46:45 Slow Horses — Season 6
Fall movie season is here, and Nelson and Tim are ready to pitch it!In Episode 179, the guys take a trailer-pitch-style look at the fall movie lineup, covering the films being released between now and Thanksgiving. What happens when you take dramatic trailers, ridiculous taglines, explosions, mysterious voices, and questionable plot descriptions and turn them into a podcast? This.Plus, Nelson and Tim give their take on the Emmys, because apparently there weren't already enough awards shows.And finally, Tim provides a dramatic reading of one particularly brutal half-star Rotten Tomatoes audience review of Resident Evil.

Season 3 of Silo may be over, but Nelson and Tim aren't done talking!This week, the guys take a deep dive into Silo on Apple TV+ and try to make sense of everything that happened after an entire season of secrets, mysteries, and underground drama.Then comes The Whisper Man on Netflix, which gets spoiled for Nelson—and, as it turns out, Nelson is a little bit scared. Who knew a podcast about TV and movies could become a support group?And finally, things go completely off the rails when Tim unleashes his inner military consultant to discuss Mayday on Apple TV+. Ryan Reynolds, Kenneth Branagh, and some questionable military choices make for one spectacular rant.Plus, the usual nonsense. Because apparently that's what you signed up for.Chapters:0:00 Cold Open1:11 Intro7:26 Silo27:29 The Whisper Man33:32 Mayday
Nelson and Tim prepare a tour-de-force of films they skipped in theaters...ready to take on a bunch of films that are now streaming on an internet connection near you. Probably in your hand. Plus, they weigh in on the recent 4K edit to Pleasantville and Batman Day!
