Description
The passionate discussion at the next table distracts you from your coffee. As you surreptitiously listen in, you realize it’s an old guy and young guy talking, no not talking, debating with passion about the various movie universes, agreeing on some points, challenging one another on others. Next week it's another show. Always engaging, with unique viewpoints. Suddenly they aren’t there. Forlorned, the barista tells you they don’t come here anymore, a furtive glance she reaches into her pocket and pulls out a simple white card with a QR code… Welcome to the podcast you didn't know you needed.

Did the promises of Gunnverse deliver in the first year? Do we still have hope? What about the Flash comments he made? What can we expect this year? Will it be the year Henry Cavill saves the MCU and DCU?

An episode of love for Bodies. We sincerely hope there is a season two of this well deserving series. If not we are hunting down the show runner and writers, to get the answers to our questions. Like, 'Why is it called the throat?' , 'Why is Maplewood in 2023'. I could go on, but that would be a podcast...

A shorter episode because Doug doesn't want to talk for 2 hours. So many cool things, and Doug argues that there is only one time and we are in a loop, time is not advancing past 2053!

Ah Time Travel Series! That has us all over it! Might be a little too Fan Boi happy about this. But there's nothing wrong with being happy!
Doug loves it, because he read the books, Jeff points out you need a fricking interpreter for all the crazy names...Doug sadly agrees... Both still like the series, Doug more than Jeff, but then he's an old guy.

The first James Gunn disappointment, don't have a focus group, and then don't listen to them. You had a chance to do something unique and you blew it. Doug's soapbox was he extra large this week and Jeff 's disappointment was visceral.

Jeff and Doug continue being amazed at the quality of acting and writing, and really HOW MANY MOAR MYSTERIES DOES ONE SEASON NEED!!!!
Jeff and Doug review episodes four and five of SILO Season 1. Seriously don't fall in love in SILO. One or both of you will die. Will any protagonist actually live? The world of SILO is soo cool, can we have a 'character' episode of the SILO itself, maybe a flashback to the builders, please, please, please?

More mysteries, another love story and did we really learn anything or did we only get more questions. Doug is still mad we have to dumb things down because people don't know the basics of a generator. Jeff wants to touch the grass.

Jeff and Doug conclude their thoughts on the Mandalorian Season Three. They forgot how to write Star Wars. This doesn't bode well for the rest of the universe... and mark my words...Doug will storm Mickey's castle!

Jeff and Doug disagree on whether this was a pleasant episode. A well executed and acted episode. Was it self-indulgent by the creators? A touching, beautiful story, but did we need a full episode of of it? Were the creators trying to right a wrong from the game? Pull up a chair, listen in...
