018 – The Workmanlike Sweet Spot For Changing Hearts And Minds
| 8. April, 2014

EPISODE_GRAPHIC

Plus each host’s Nic Cage impression!

This week, Katey, Patches, Da7e and David take on this exact moment in the cultural landscape in three distinct ways: First, Da7e has seen and enjoyed Captain America: The Winter Soldier but gets very confused once he starts drawing parallels to the reviled Iron Man 2. Also, Patches is convinced that Fox’s Cosmos is aggressively drawing a line against Creationism while Da7e suggests it’s time to take a stand against religion in science-based programming. Can Katey and David unlock the antlers of these sparring bucks? Also, in celebration of this week’s Joe, each podcast host choses a Nicolas Cage line and delivers it in their best Cage impression and in recognition of Oculus, a lighting round question about unique horror villains.

REVIEW – Cap’s Back: Winter Has Coming’d
| 4. April, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

Et tu, Bucky?

This week, Katey, Patches, and David uncover Marvel’s diabolical plot to take over the world. Or churn out half-decent action movies. One or the other. From S.H.I.E.L.D.’s high-tech war room, the FITWR crew dukes it over Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Does the ’70s conspiracy thriller throwback offer a brainier brand of action or is it a regular Dum Dum Dugan? That and your lightning round answers on America’s real movie hero on this week’s episode.

017 – How I Met Your Zeitgeist
| 1. April, 2014

EPISODE_GRAPHIC

Plus A Mid-Episode Post-Credits Scene Discussion.

This week, Katey, Patches, Da7e and David convened on Sunday to discuss the How I Met Your Mother finale and how this filmed-in-LA sitcom about friends in New York closed out it’s 9 Season run. Then, David wants to talk about just how much critics are supposed to plug into the greater cultural zeitgeist, wondering if it’s irresponsible for any serious critic to have, say, NOT seen The Avengers. That plus real American heroes and a brief discussion of Marvel’s credits scenes inspired by Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier.

Review – And God Told Noah, ‘You Shall Build a Podcast’
| 28. March, 2014

Plus, maybe The Raid 2 isn’t the greatest fight movie of all time?

This week, Katey, Patches, and David destroy mankind with a flood of opinions on Noah, the Biblical epic from Black Swan director Darren Aronofsky. Was it a religious experience or 40 days and 40 nights of an overblown blockbuster downpour? As a bonus, Patches and David punch their way through the universal praise of The Raid 2 to figure out what it does right and wrong. All that and your answers to this week’s lighting round on movies too gory to enjoy.
