The Time Pals celebrate Star Wars Day and the re-release of “Revenge of the Sith” by going on a dungeon adventure set in the Star Wars universe. This time your Pals attempt to break the artificial intelligence storyteller with a lightsaber to the gut and craft a completely original story that won’t at all resemble "The Book of Boba Fett" in meaningful any way.

So join us on a hilarious special episode and find out how a gray Jedi became Mistress of the Dark, how a Hutt lost an empire, and what it means to be "Too SWEEET".

This week, the Time Pals get into a roundtable discussion and delve into Naughty Dog's acclaimed game, The Last of Us, and its recent adaptation into a television series.

Joining us is author/writer, film school student, and host of the upcoming "Something Offensive Podcast", Britt McKay.

Together, we explore the emotional impact of the game and the artistic liberties taken in the show. If the Clickers don't get them, the Time Pals themselves WILL! (It's a bit about man being the true monster, you get it...)

This week the Time Pals finally did it—We finished fixing the rest of the Academy’s gross mistakes—and for the surprisingly competitive decade of 2010 to 2020. We discuss the films that deservedly had a chance at greatness and remove the ones that Jon liked because, ya know, it's JON.

Join your Time Pals as we serve praise, throw copious amounts of shade, and "Do the Oscar’s Worst one last time.

The fight to correct past Academy mistakes continues! Sould Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby be acknowledged for its comedic impact or is Jon Powell so woefully wrong? Where the eff is The Last King of Scotland or The Dark Knight? And how the heck did Nickell end up with twenty nominees?

Joining the Time Pals is special guest and close friend of Nickell, “Hollywood Fringe Legend” Veronica Matthews.

This week the Time Pals are going to the movies, only thistime they’re playing their version of “Eff, Marry, Kill” with some the most questionable Best Picture winners from the 1990’s. From bloated epics to forgettable dramas, join your pals as they break down which films didn’t deserve their golden statues and, more importantly, find the films that truly needed some Oscar glory.

Would you replace American Beauty with Man on theMoon? Are you the kind of person to dropkick Driving Miss Daisy for Batman? Are you a Thin Red Line apologist or are you wrong?

Join us as we re-write Oscar history and do what our parents’generation didn’t have the guts to do: Nominate Natural Born Killers.

Got a movie you think deserved the gold? Let us know! And don’t forget to subscribe, rate, and time pal responsibly.
