This week, Patches and Da7e have been watching the old Nightmare on Elm Street sequels on HBO Max and Patches wonders if we’re missing something in modern horror. Then, Patches and David got to meet the stars of K-Pop Demon Hunters in New York, did they earn more cred with their kids? Finally, Katey, David, and Da7e have seen The Smashing Machine and debate the movie’s high aspirations as a character piece with a puzzling execution.

This week, everyone is back in the war room! The guys talk about Season 1 of Alien: Earth which has recently concluded on Hulu and it seems like they’re mostly positive on it. Then, we get a dispatch from Patches’ father who has seen The Wizard of Oz at the Sphere in Las Vegas. Finally, in a long segment that assumes you have also seen One Battle After Another, the hosts discuss Paul Thomas Anderson’s latest. AGAIN – SPOILERS – SEE ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER FIRST IF YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT PLOT SPOILERS.

This week, David’s solo-parenting attempt left him unable to podcast, so we decided to save our discussion of Alien: Earth and One Battle After Another until next week. Katey, Patches, and Da7e get together this week to discuss seemingly nonsense that quickly boils over. First, we attempt to talk about one studio’s panic in the face of the government and that quickly spirals out, then Katey’s seen the new documentary Predators, it’s about the old reality series To Catch A Predator and is about entrapment by the police (partially). Finally, Patches is playing a game that is aggressively annoying to play and loving it, he wants to know if there are other extremely aggressive movies that fail (HIM) or succeed (A Serbian Film? – just kidding, don’t subject yourself) – We’re calling it The Aggression Dichotomy – can you attract someone by media that is constantly daring them to walk away?
