This week, we had to wait for the embargo to be lifted on Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, and once everyone knows the podcast is actually going up on Thursday, we can’t stop referencing it. First, David tells you about Lee Cronin’s The Mummy – out this weekend if you need some goop. Then, Patches talks up a new game called Pragmata which is out (checks watch) – tomorrow! For Segment Three, all the hosts talk about watching Season 2 of The Pitt, which ends (checks watch) – tonight! on HBO Max.

This week, David got suddenly ill, so Da7e has to explain The Drama (actually a comedy) to Katey and Patches which necessitates SAYING THE THING THE TRAILER IMPLIES IS A MYSTERY. If you want to go in completely fresh, skip the segment, if you’re one of the many who have already seen The Drama, hopefully Da7e’s thoughts align with yours. Then, a Colorado Alamo Drafthouse goes on strike spotlighting the labor impacts of the QR code ordering system, and the group talks about the decline of the Drafthouse model. Finally, Matt Patches is back from Disneyland and Katey and Da7e genuinely want to hear how it went. Sometimes the podcast is just what we want it to be…most times…all the time.

This week, the hosts have to deal with Spring Break and the various trips for people not named David. Patches is absent entirely on the West Coast attending Disneyland and visiting family. Katey is also visiting family, but finds some time to call in to hear Da7e talk about Super Mario Galaxy while her kids watch Wreck It Ralph in another room. Before that, David calls from his laptop near his kids to talk about how book writing is going and the new trailer for A24’s The Backrooms.

Da7e’s just around, seeing some movies, watching some trailers.

This week, OpenAI killed Sora 2 while Da7e wasn’t paying attention, so Katey, Patches, and David fill him in on the death of the copyright-violation machine. Then, Patches has been saving Big Questions for this exact podcast moment: what toothpastes do the hosts use? Finally, after a month of promising, we all review Project Hail Mary, which most of us seemed to enjoy (some of us despite ourselves).
