  • Ep 181: Documentaries, Deception and a Rick Roll
    Oct 6 2026

    Before the intro even starts, Tim Rick Rolls Nelson. Yep. That's how this episode begins.

    After that completely unnecessary betrayal, Nelson and Tim get a little more educational than usual and dive into three documentaries covering history, artificial intelligence, money, and the questionable things people will do for it.

    First up is Band of Brothers Legacy on HBO Max, followed by The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist on Netflix, exploring the promises, possibilities, and potential nightmares of artificial intelligence.

    Then they take on Everybody Is Lying to You for Money on Prime Video, a documentary about the crypto industry and the hype, pitfalls and questionable behavior that can come with chasing the next big digital fortune.

    So, this week we've got history, AI, money, deception—and one extremely unnecessary Rick Roll before we've even officially started.

    16:46 The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist

  • Ep 180: New TV Galore!
    Sep 30 2026

    There is A LOT of TV happening right now.

    Nelson and Tim attempt to keep up with the latest season finales, returning favorites, and brand-new shows in Ep. 180: New TV Galore!

    The guys tackle The Gentlemen Season 2 on Netflix, the Reacher Season 4 finale on Prime Video, Chad Powers Season 2 on Hulu, Brothers and Slow Horses Season 6 on Apple TV+.

    But before they dive into all that TV, there's an important question to settle: Should you actually go see Avengers: Endgame: Encore in theaters? Tim has a hot take—and, naturally, he is always right!

    Five shows. One movie. Several strong opinions. And absolutely no guarantee that your watchlist will be any shorter when we're done.

    Chapters:

    0:00 Intro
    2:50 Avengers: Endgame: Encore
    10:52 The Gentlemen — Season 2
    17:40 Reacher — Season 4
    28:55 Chad Powers — Season 2
    37:10 Brothers
    46:45 Slow Horses — Season 6

  • Ep 179: Fall Movie Primer
    Sep 22 2026

    Fall movie season is here, and Nelson and Tim are ready to pitch it!

    In Episode 179, the guys take a trailer-pitch-style look at the fall movie lineup, covering the films being released between now and Thanksgiving. What happens when you take dramatic trailers, ridiculous taglines, explosions, mysterious voices, and questionable plot descriptions and turn them into a podcast? This.

    Plus, Nelson and Tim give their take on the Emmys, because apparently there weren't already enough awards shows.

    And finally, Tim provides a dramatic reading of one particularly brutal half-star Rotten Tomatoes audience review of Resident Evil.

    Chapters:

    0:48 Intro
    2:47 Coming Up in the Podcast
    4:17 Emmys
