This week, we have replaced a still-absent David with Ben Hosley from the Blank Check podcast and producer/creator of the Slow Xmas music project or “bit” that we also discuss on this episode.

You can also buy it digitally at outlets like Bandcamp!
Ben also saw (pun not intended) the Chainsaw Man movie and informs Katey, Da7e, and Patches about this anime hit that beat out Bugonia at the box office when it was released. Then, your three regular co-hosts talk about Hamnet and if their hearts were ripped out of their bodies by pure emotion or not. We talk about the end, I guess, but even the director Chloe Zhao says this movie can’t be spoiled.

This week, Patches and Katey flew out to Denver to join Da7e, Denver Film Festival Artistic Director Matthew Campbell, and Denver Film Festival CEO Kevin Smith to have a conversation about fighting about movies in front of a live audience. We haven’t done that in over a decade!
This week’s episode was recorded live, but the pauses when the audience was speaking that were not picked up by the mics were deleted.

This week: Ehrlich’s out having a child, so Jordan Hoffman returns to Fighting In The War Room to NOT cancel the podcast. First, Da7e attempts to lay out the new plan for DC movies at Warner Bros and noted Green Lantern fans Patches and Jordan react to an “Earth-bound” series for those heroes. Then – Patches want’s to know how we wipe our butts after pooping and questions how we know if we’re “doing it right,” and that conversation goes exactly like you think it would. FINALLY, Jordan, Patches and Da7e weigh in on M Night Shyamalan’s latest: Knock at the Cabin with a spoiler section tacked on the end.
