Double Dragon - Castle Architecture and “The Bells” (805)

Medieval historian Iain MacInnes joins Anthony to talk about Castles and King’s Landing. Then Steve does his first viewing of “The Bells.”

Watching Westworld - S04E07 – Metanoia

We’re pretty sure the show is messing with us. The answers that Metanoia gave us are confounding a majority of theorizers. As more and more theoretical outcomes are being crossed off of the list, we’re curious to see how this season of Westworld wraps up. Questions about Christina are always interesting, but can we please the notion that there might be horses in the sublime?

Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)

Take a walk on the adventurous side as we revisit a staple of classic pulp movies. The dialogue crackles, the visuals stun, and Harrison Ford creates an icon of 20th century cinema. We have the behind-the-scenes of stunts and the story of Lucas and Spielberg’s fateful Hawaii trip. From the rolling boulder to the Ark wiping out the Third Reich, it’s a rip roaring time of good writing, great acting, and a score that soars.

Thank you to Bill Dodd for commissioning this episode!

Perfect Stranger Things: Season Five Preview

Is it way too early for a Season Five preview? Probably. But a few questions linger that warrant consideration: Will’s connection to the Upside Down, Hopper’s relevancy, and what time is the Pajama Jammi Jam?

For All Mankind - S03E09 – Coming Home

Big Internet points to whoever predicted this episode’s turn of events. We get payoffs, time jumps that make us ask “What happened to Sergei?”, and we get a glimpse at the very real consequences of further automating our businesses and lives. It’s a packed episode and we’re looking forward to the next.

Watching Westworld - S04E06 – Fidelity – Feedback

Craving more reasons to throw yourself in an existential crisis? Join Jim and A.Ron as they go through YOUR feedback and theories. Is there something deeper in the tower’s sound pattern? Why print so many Caleb bodies? Westworld is taking us on a journey more satisfying than seasons past, but will they stick the landing?

Better Cast Saul - S06E11 – Breaking Bad

We might be in the minority on this one… but this was not the episode we were hoping for just 2 weeks from the end Better Call Saul. Join us for the podcast while we try to sort out our feelings and justify to ourselves why we feel the way we do.

Badasses 2022 – Rankings and Inductions

CHAMPION. CHARISMA. CHARACTER.

This is the last Badass Stream of 2022. Jim and A.Ron revisit their rules, rankings, and results. Are there cracks forming in the faces of Mt. Buffmore? Listen to the Hall of Fame museum layout plans that will be built in Los Angeles 2049 (I hope). Thanks for joining us in our Badass rankings and we’ll see you next year!

Double Dragon: The Last of the Starks (804)

Steve and Anthony discuss errant Starbucks coffee cups and misguided appeals to Cersei’s better nature. But what could be overlooked in this episode is a stunning and compelling irony: Sansa betrays Jon in order to elevate him. It’s a brilliant plot flourish that only Game of Thrones can pull off.
