This week, all four hosts reflect that we’ve been doing this through a bunch of American elections. David, Da7e, Patches, and Katey all reflect on the 2026 midterm results recorded a day after they started rolling in…then they get to the movies. Patches, David, and Katey have fun things to say about The Only Living Pickpocket in New York, the debut film from Noah Sagan. Then, David and Da7e talk this weekend’s IMAX Kaiju action movie without saying anything the production company considers a spoiler. It’s Godzilla Minus Zero time!

This week, all four hosts assemble, but during the daytime to attempt to record a podcast. First, David and Patches report back on the newest Laika stop motion film Wildwood, which is in theaters now and gets the old millennial boys back together again talking about The Decemberists. Then, in the second segment of a two segment podcast, Katey, Da7e, and Patches talk about Wild Horse Nine, the new Martin McDonagh movie starring John Malkovich and and Sam Rockwell as CIA hitmen on vactation in 1973. If you’re wondering what our podcast title is about, both movies feature Tom Waits. *bad-dum-tiss.

This week, three segments, three movies, three hosts. First up, Da7e saw Whalefall which is a movie that probably would have captured more of the adult audience if a certain documentary hadn’t devoured all the buzz at the box office. Then, Katey reports back from Wicker, a sexy romantasy about having relations with a basket man. Finally, all three hosts have see You Can See Everything and can finally talk about it now that the movie is in theaters. Most of the discussion is about the topics the movie brings up in general, so the “spoilers” for the mysterious second half don’t start until 57 and a half minutes into the podcast (there’s a gong for a warning).
