    49. Where Have We Been All Your Life?
    Aug 19 2020
    The guys finally return. Well, most of them, anyways. Pete is noticeably absent, though he is editing this episode from the Great Beyond. The guys don’t waste a lot of time and jump right into what they’ve been watching. Kevin kicks it off, having watched what sounds like everything but amounts to nothing. Alex follows that up with the handful of shows he’s been watching, and the Opie takes the guys to awards town as they discuss some of the Emmy nominated shows. It’s a relatively short and sweet show, but it’s what you’ve obviously been waiting for. Enjoy!

  • Episode 45 - Something Old Is Made… Old… Again

    Episode 45 - Something Old Is Made… Old… Again
    May 22 2020
    Episode 45 - Something Old Is Made… Old… Again The guys get in their way back machine this week and put together an episode structured remarkably like their earlier episodes. There’s streaming picks, a movie watched by all, and a game of trivia that a certain someone obviously dominates at… Pete jump on the grenade early and talks about the 90’s classic City Slickers. He does take some heat for watching something so old, but it’s a universally loved film, so the guys are able to let that go. But, as usual, Pete goes one step too far and goes even further back by watching the 80’s G.I. Joe cartoon. The nostalgia train only goes so far… Next up, Kevin makes short work of his time acknowledging and praising season 6 of Schitt’s Creek. Sure, he talked about it last week, but it’s THAT good. Next he discusses the Ben Platt show The Politician on Netflix and gives it an overall solid review. Next up, Opie watches The Banker on Apple TV+ which he gives a pretty stellar review of. He then does on a virtual courtship of Michelle Dockery by watching Defending Jacob on Apple TV+ and then turning around and watching the 2019 Downton Abbey movie. Finally Alex jumps all aboard the Pete Express and watches the classic Brendan Fraser flick, Bedazzled. He then takes a hard turn right back to Alex-Land by talking about The Last Kingdom on Netflix. And just in case that didn’t satiate your need for Alex-ness, he also talks the Lord of the Rings video game, Shadow of War. Finally, before the break, they guys talk about the new Chris Hemsworth film on Netflix, Extraction. Reviews are about what you’d expect if you’ve watched the trailer, but certainly no one hated it. After the break, the guys play a 2003 Entertainment version of Trivial Pursuit which puts Alex into a deeper hole than usual. Will he win? You’ll have to listen to find out!

  • Episode 44 What to Expect When You’re Apocalypsing

    Episode 44 What to Expect When You’re Apocalypsing
    May 15 2020
    So you’re living in the apocalypse and trying to figure out how to get by? Well, the guys have finally mastered Zoom and are back to invade your earholes. What’s crazier, they’ve decided to use this technology to please your eyes, too. That’s right, we are officially posting video to YouTube. If it’s good enough for Colbert, it’s good enough for us! This week, the guys go down the massive rabbit hole of covering what they’ve been watching in quarantine. Honestly, you’d thing this list would be significantly longer, but hey, it’s something, right? Kevin kicks us off by talking about the techno thriller Devs on Hulu. He follows that up with the magnificence Schitt’s Creek. After starting off with great TV, he switches to video games and talks the Final Fantasy VII Remake and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. He finishes that up with a very interesting review of NBC’s Manifest. Next up, Opie talks movies first with the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise and the Lord of the Rings trilogy. He then goes against his usual grain and talks video games with Red Dead Redemption 2. He then finishes us off with TV and discusses Killing Eve, Homeland, Happy, and Little Fires Everywhere. For the record, that’s more than 5, right? Speaking of struggling with numbers, Pete goes next and talks about Apple TV+’s Beastie Boys documentary and Netflix’s Dead to Me. That’s right. We said 5. The “producer” gave us 2. Maybe Opie will loan him a few. Last but not least (that was Pete), we have Alex. He covers a couple of documentary type offerings in the Galaxy Quest documentary, Never Surrender, and the Netflix cut of the Dave Chapelle Mark Twain Prize. Next he jumps to TV and talks Scrubs and Peaky Blinders. After that he also goes to video games and discusses Elder Scrolls Online. He finally works us to completion with What We Do In The Shadows. As a group, the guys do what they intended to do months ago and talk about the Pixar film, Onward. The opinions are shockingly not what you’d expect them to be, so definitely pay attention to that part. After a quick break, the guys jump onto the current “One Has To Go” trend and choose between a few huge entertainment properties. They add a little special sauce to the end of that segment by flipping it on it’s head, so stay tuned to the end!

    43. DC: What's Marvel Got That We Don't ?
    Mar 4 2020
    The guys are back, after another unplanned break. No we aren’t going bi…weekly (see what I did there?). The group is back together, sans Pete. Where is Pete you may ask. We have an explanation for you in the intro and it’s super special, so listen in to find out! This week the guys run down so streaming and movie picks really quick. With Pete out, Opie, Alex, and Kevin cruise through the picks with blinding speed. There are some good suggestions in there so definitely pay attention! As an aside, before recording, the guys discussed possibly working on the show being closer to an hourlong show. For this reason, they forgo a break to do a short segment on DC movies through the year. When all was said and done, the flow carried them into another incredibly long episode! As you’d imagine, the conversation often drifts to Marvel, but the guys expertly divert it back to DC ever time… Enjoy this episode. It flowed well and we hope you enjoy it. We’ll let you know when our favorite flow wrecker is back in the booth with us, but until then… #wheresPete #allpopnoculture #hbo #hbogo #hbonow #netflix #netflixandchill #amazonprime #hulu #appletvplus #disneyplus #popculture #movies #television #youtube #streaming #dccomics #dcmovies #dceu

  • 42. Got Game?

    42. Got Game?
    Feb 20 2020
    The guys are back in full force this week with what might be their longest episode to date. They even have a plan. The hell you say?? Check out the intro! They explain the plan. Listen to see if they follow it. Plan or not, here’s what actually happens: The guys kick off the episode by going through a few streaming picks. Pete does his usual and watches something that’s almost irrelevant, but sticks the landing, in West Wing. Next up, Kevin goes over a couple of recent Netflix recommendations, The Stranger and Unbelievable. Both are strong dramatic offerings sure to keep you interested. The guys also throw in a random suggestion for the now cancelled Southland from NBC/TNT After that little bit of info, the conversation turns to the cinema, where Opie recently saw Guy Ritchie’s The Gentlemen. It sounds like a return to form for Guy and comes highly recommended. Next up, Alex gives us a last work on Onward before it’s impending release. From here, the guys gently stir the ship to the meat and potatoes of this episode. The first half of the show ends with a great segue from the new Sonic the Hedgehog movie, which Alex has seen and didn’t seem to hate, much to everyone’s shock. From there, they use the video game premise to steer into one of the best new shows of 2020, Mythic Quest on AppleTV+ After the break, the guys come back and have a shockingly long and intimate conversation about their favorite video games over the years. There is a noticeable difference in types of players and definitely well worth a listen!!
