This week, a huge snow storm on the east coast shut down David’s access to the internet, breaking his Fighting In The War Room streak. Your other three hosts – Patches, Katey, and Da7e – all assemble in the war room and forsake both David’s streak and the format of the podcast.
This not-an-episode chat includes Katey talking about her Wuthering Heights viewing, Da7e talking about his in-theater Twin Peaks: The Return experience, Patches talking about in-theater wuxia flick Blades of the Guardians. Outside of the theater, Daniel Radcliffe is in several new projects (The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins) but might not be better than Harry Melling, who killed it in Pillion.
Also, they like the Olympics and dislike the FBI Director partying with a hockey team.

CEASE AND DECEASE!
This week, David continues his streak on what he insists is his fourth of seven consecutive weeks on the podcast, but Patches felt ill, so Katey and Da7e get the pleasure of pre-colonoscopy David. First, Da7e and David discuss Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie, a very-Canadian movie in theaters now that has either been slightly overhyped for you…or you have no idea what it is. Then, the new Mandalorian and Grogu trailer excites the children and isn’t that what Star Wars is for? Finally, Netflix has a new documentary about an old reality TV series, so Katey and Da7e dig into Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model.

This week, David continues his streak on what he insists is his third of seven consecutive weeks on the podcast, but Katey Rich had to be in Los Angeles for awards stuff. David and Patches listen to Da7e talk about Emerald Fennell’s very goopy “Wuthering Heights,” then Patches and David talk about the zen of an independent game named Cairn where you climb a mountain.

This week, David continues what he insists is his second of seven consecutive weeks on the podcast, and it turns out it’s because he’s on book leave. After talking about Heater Rivalry again because you wrote in about it, three of the hosts discuss Disneyland Handcrafted a new collection of documentary footage available on Disney Plus and YouTube. Then, Da7e saw the Charli XCX movie The Moment and since it’s a mockumentary it kind of fits with the topic (enough for a mini segment) before they all jump into Oscar doc frontrunner The Perfect Neighbor, which is on Netflix right now.
Because of the nature of documentaries and this podcast, we assume you know Walt Dinsney succeeded in making Disneyland, Charli XCX released an album called brat in 2024, and The Perfect Neighbor includes a shooting and arrest as viewed through police body cam footage. We don’t think these are spoilers.
