    There's always a way. Alex and Zach leap into the sky for the start of a new DC Universe with the arrival of SUPERMAN.

  • Episode 48 - F1 The Movie + Jurassic World: Rebirth
    2025/07/09

    Lights out, and away we go! Alex and Zach jump into the driver seat for the adrenaline-fueled summer blockbuster of F1 THE MOVIE. We discuss if Brad Pitt and company hit top speed or need to turn back into pit lane, and we ask if this movie will create new fans of the sport. Plus, as fans of the sport ourselves, we strut our wheel knowledge of how well this translates Formula One racing from track to screen.

    Also, after taking another ill-fated trip to dinosaur island, Zach gives a quick rundown on Jurassic World: Rebirth. Yet another movie in the franchise where they were, again, more concerned with if they could than if they should.

    2025/07/06

    You keep dancing with the devil, and one day he's going to follow you home. Alex and Zach finally saw writer-director Ryan Coogler's newest cinematic blast SINNERS. We see if we can handle a dip into the horror side of film, and let you know whether it's easy to stomach. (Short answer: YES! (*with caveats from Alex)). We examine the movie's exploration of race relations in the Jim Crow South mixed in with an explosion of vampire tension.
