This week on The Mandalorian there are several moments that Star Wars fans have been waiting decades for. You’ve probably already seen the episode but I won’t say too much, just in case. The stormtroopers might be dumb, but they’re also up against one of the best. Join us for our discussion of The Manadalorian.

Welcome to the first Christmas movie of the 2020 holiday season, The Holiday! It features some major starpower, the likes of Kate Winslet, Jude Law, Cameron Diaz, and Jack Black. Yes, it’s a romantic comedy but you knew we had to do one eventually. There are just SO MANY rom-com Christmas movies out there and we can’t cover JUST the badass classics like Die Hard and Rocky IV! And if there was ever a season for variety, this is the one. COVID has been hard on all of us, so join us for this mostly-wholesome, very sappy, but also highly-enjoyable holiday treat.

Christmas Lunchtime! This is it. This lunch is the kick-off event for the 2020 Holiday celebration here at Bald Move. We took Thanksgiving off so this is a super-sized lunch spanning both holidays. Join us as we imbibe our typical three drinks and spread the Christmas cheer.
Anthony and Chad ponder the friendship between Ned and Robert (are they really friends?) and the virtue/cowardice of Samwell Tarley. Steve considers Catelyn’s capture of Tyrion and does a deep dive into Rodrik Cassel’s sideburns.
Club members get access to a live recording of Lunch with Jim & A.Ron every Friday at 1pm, where members get to ask questions in real time. On the fifth anniversary of Lunch with Jim & A.Ron, we started reheating previous lunch episodes and making them available to the public for the first time.
We did it! It’s been an epic journey of Tolkien proportions trying to cover The Lord of the Rings trilogy, but we didn’t go it alone. The Bald Move Frodo found their Sam in commissioner “Epic Mouthful”, who hefted us up on their back and carried us up the nearly 3-hour Mt. Doom of a podcast that this turned out to be. Join us on the podcast for the final chapter of our Lord of the Rings coverage!
The gang war has conclusively heated up in the season finale of Fargo. Find out who lived, who died, what it all meant and what we thought of this season in general. We’ll be back next week to wrap up the season and sign off for the year. See you then.
Bald Move Pulp is where you can get your fix of robots, aliens, action space adventures, and everything in between; on television or on the big screen. Pulp was not made for serious drama, if that’s your thing, you might be looking for Bald Move Prestige.
This might be the biggest episode yet of The Mandalorian. The Ahsoka episode that everyone has been waiting for is here. And not only that, but we also get some backstory on “Baby Yoda”. Next stop, Boba-town!
Over the years there have been many film adaptations of Stephen King’s work. Today we’re covering one of the finest. Starring Kathy Bates and James Caan, Misery is the story of fandom gone wrong. Or maybe it’s an allegory for over-zealous editors. Or it could be an author’s struggle with drug addiction and the backlash from fans when their writing ventures beyond a specific genre. Join us on the podcast as we debate this question and discuss what makes Misery so great.
