This week on the show we’re joined by newcomers Kyle Anderson and Makaela Newsome to talk about Lynne Ramsay’s latest and fairly divisive film You Were Never Really Here. It’s a movie that actively rebels against its genre, which works for some of us and not so much for others. Overall, a fun and in-depth discussion on an interesting movie.
This week we talk about the surprising spy/comedy gem The Spy Who Dumped Me, with hilarious performances by Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon. Special thanks to Amanda Timpson and Michelle Dunn for coming out to talk about this super fun film with us!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING! This week we talk about the largely unimpressive Ocean’s 8 and try to figure out where it went wrong given all the talent involved. Special thanks to Justine Gendron and Libby Ward for joining us to talk about the film!
This week we do the Kessel Run in twelve pod’secs as we talk about Solo, the Star Wars film that finally gives us the answer to the age old question of “how did Han get his last name?” Special thanks to Jeff Elster for joining us.
This week we’re going back to that special time in our lives where everything was awkward and awful and just awkwardly awful and we were figuring out who we were, which was also awkward. That’s right, we’re talking about the movie Eighth Grade, the coming-of-age “comedy” from Bo Burnham. Special thanks to Eric Stolze for joining us and recommending the movie!
This week it’s a dinosaur of an episode because we’re talking about Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, a movie that doesn’t have nearly as many dinosaurs as it should unless you count evil white guys in suits, in which case it has a lot of dinosaurs. Special thanks to Justin Thiele for joining us.

You’ve heard of our Secret Santa episodes, but have you heard of our Secret Pumpkin episode? Sure you have. It’s literally this episode. We’ve gone and assigned each other some fun horror films to round out our horror month. Special thanks to After the Hype alumn Nick Friedemann for joining us this week.
This week it’s serial killers and social media as we tackle the surprisingly fun horror comedy Tragedy Girls, directed by Tyler MacIntyre. Special thanks to friend of the show Elizabeth Hanley for the recommendation.
This week on the podcast we talk about Hereditary, the feature film debut of Ari Aster. It stars the amazing Toni Collette and features some impressive miniatures. Special thanks to Tom Ford for taking a break from his fashion career (see our Nocturnal Animals episode) to join us.
Shhh! This week we’re not talking about A Quiet Place. I mean, we are, but non-verbally. That’s not true either, because this is a podcast and podcasts are primarily audio. Friend of the show Elliot Campos joins us to discuss the film and discuss what worked, and boy does a lot of this work!
