A deep dive on the second longest running cinematic universe. Can you believe this outlasted the DCEU and Dark Universe? We can because it's amazing.
Tom Serious and Neil Ofutmostimportancetheseries, sans Chris Series, continue the trip down the best albums of each decade. Up now: The 1980s, the absolute worst decade for music since the dawn of the invention of the technology to record albums.
Tom, Chris and Neil - none of whom listen to or particularly enjoy most country music but Chris saw Hannah Montana in a Best Buy once - have some bourbon in Nashville and rank the top country music artists of all time, recorded live in person for the first time! Are most of the entries Nelly? Listen and find out.
Chris and Neil go through all the films and the one TV show of the DCEU (Man of Steel through The Flash) and talk about the highs, the many lows, and what, if anything, can we remember from the last 10+ years of DC movies. If you retweet or rethread this at James Gunn, there's a 50% chance he has nothing better to do than listen to it.
When Neil's away, Tom and Tom 2 (Jake) play a lot of Talking Heads. Join us for a journey through David Byrne’s most well known project and the albums of one of the most influential new wave bands.
We continue our reverse chronological journey through the best albums of every decade. This time, it's the 1990s. Sit back, enjoy your [insert 90s reference], and listen!
Franklin, Chris, Tom, and Neil discuss the main Switch Pokemon games (Sword & Shield, Legends: Arceus, and Scarlet & Violet). This naturally leads into a discussion of Fast X.
Chris, Tom and Neil look back through the year in movies, music, books, television, sports, technology, and economic bills that really are more about climate policies but are kind of weirdly named.
Tom and Neil continue their journey through musical history with the best albums of 2000-2009. Was it the best decade for music? No. Was it the best decade for the vibes? Also no. But listening to our top 10 picks each? That's a good time.
We run through the second half of the list of the best albums of the 2010s. Does U2's songs of innocence make the cut? Listen to find out! But no it doesn't it was terrible.
Best albums of all time, one decade at a time. Next stop, 2010s. Stop after this? Also 2010s. Because it was such a great decade we split it in two.
Season 5 premiere! In part one of our reverse chronological best albums of the decades series of episodes, we go through the best albums of the 2020s - an almost three year span that has felt enough like a decade to warrant it
Batfleck v Baleman: Dawn of Pattinson
We go through the live action Batmen, and some of the Jokers, to determine who was the best, who was the worst, and if Batman is inherently immoral for refusing to kill the Joker and beating up the mentally ill. Conclusion - Giancarlo Esposito would be a great Professor X.
Edgar Wright's been making movies since he was 14, but he never really made it until age 40, because that's when Tom and Neil finally did an episode on his filmography. We go through everything from his first, low budget film "A Fistful of Dollars" to his most recent film "Last Night in Soho." Along the way we talk The Three Flavors Cornetto Trilogy (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, The World's End), the almost made Edgar Wright Ant-Man, the last Kevin Spacey role before his downfall (Baby Driver), and the wild pop rock documentary "The Sparks Brothers." Naturally, we also crap on JJ Abrams.
Join us as we explore the work of Julian Casablancas, one of the foundational modern rock personalities. We talk about The Strokes, The Voidz, his solo work, and naturally, the breakup of Daft Punk and the legacy of MySpace.
We finish off our discussion on video streaming platforms, dive into the pros/cons of movie theaters vs streaming, and talk about the players in the music streaming space in Part Two of our 2 part series on streaming. Also, The Irishman wasn't a great movie.
In this episode, we go through a history of streaming services. Well we tried to, and then realized we would have to figure out what a streaming service actually is. Join us for a talk about Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, Youtube, Twitch, Quibi, Vorpal, Schlumbo, Microsoft TV Plus, Animal Planet Live, Moomoo, and more. Some of those are made up but are you 100% sure which ones?
Tom, Chris and Neil give their top 10 of 2021. Top 10 of what you ask? Top 10 of everything
