Matt just got back from Iceland and Luke's nursing a hangover post-Christmas party, so there’s plenty of laughs as they chat about everything from Bonny Blue’s escapades in Indonesia to the Timothy Dalton James Bond films. So hang tight and pour yourself a glass of lime cordial.

Matt’s away committing minor crimes in England (just a bit of trespassing, nothing serious), so it’s just Dan and Luke holding down the fort this week. We’ve got exciting Star Wars news about the 50th anniversary, some controversial fashion choices from Columbia, and tales of international law-breaking that’ll make you think twice before filming content abroad.

We apologise for being MIA, but we promise it was for a good reason (we were napping, maybe!).

Luke shut down MenuLog through the sheer power of complaining, we discuss AI trying to seduce reporters, and there's a surprisingly in-depth conversation about the Vietnam War. Also, Rambo for kids? What?

Luke's knee is still messed up, which means no more blow jobs for anyone. We discuss the important things in life like Menulog delivery failures and how Matt can't believe he's been in America for almost 10 years.

PAX East 2026 badges are on sale now! March 26-29, get in while you can. We talk about PAX attendance, the current state of VR gaming (spoiler: it's still too much effort to put the headset on), and whether Luke will finally make it to PAX Australia next year.

Star Trek: Picard season 2 is still terrible and we're still mad about it. Season 3 though? Great stuff. There's a Michael Jackson biopic teaser out featuring his nephew, and we discuss the production drama around the court case that got removed from the film.

In The After Party this week we'll tell you what Jeremy Renner has allegedly been up to!
