Transcribe →Luxor Balloon Disaster / The Franchise
Nov 28, 202401:38:51Tap to summarizeOn this episode, Josh tells the story of the worst hot air balloon accident in aviation history. Spoiler alert, it was awful. Then Brett lightens the mood with a recommendation for a fast-paced and wry comedy that pokes fun at the thing he loves the most: the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It just goes to show, if you love something, you should make fun of it. It also goes to show, HBO NEVER MISSES. Whether you love the MCU, hate the MCU, love AND hate the MCU or just love really good satire then definitely don't miss this hilarious british satire: The Franchise.

Transcribe →Ancient Medical Procedures / Succession
Sep 12, 202401:34:06Tap to summarizeOn this episode, Josh discusses some ancient medical procedures that cure that old timey hysteria! Then Brett finally deep dives into one of the greatest shows ever made. It's time for a darkly comedic drama about a powerful, dysfunctional family's ruthless battle for control of their global media empire. The characters, writing, performances and cinematography have elevated this Murdoch-esque saga into an a masterpiece with the series: Succession.

Transcribe →TLEs / Rainbow Six
Aug 22, 202401:22:34Tap to summarizeOn this episode, Brett regurgitates some of the most "creative" backronyms scientists have ever pieced together. (Sprites, Ghosts, Elves, etc.) But it's worth the trouble because upper-atmospheric lightening is fascinating. Then Josh deep dives into a Tom Clancy action classic with enough hyper-specific military jargon to justify his throbbing tactical boner. Set in the '90s, with "quaint" terrorists (that still apparently deserve red-misted skulls), the world-ending viral plot feels different in a post-Covid world. It's time for the thick but perfectly-paced novel: Rainbow Six.

Transcribe →Decommissioning ISS / POCUPs
Jul 25, 202401:15:22Tap to summarizeOn this episode, Josh discusses what is planned for the International Space Station in 2030. Hope you like fireworks! Then Brett pitches his unnumbered listicle for the best Patton Oswalt Cameos and Unique Performances. Turns out P.O. is in pretty much everything he likes.

Jun 27, 202401:17:41Tap to summarizeOn this special 100th episode, Josh and Brett invite super fan and special guest Allister Booth to reflect on what it means to be a Contentologist (it's a real thing), the role Content plays in all our lives and what we are all currently engrossed in. Then Allister pitches some serious Contentology our way to (hopefully) become the world's fourth Contentologist.

Transcribe →BakeryScan / The Far Cry Experience
Jun 5, 202401:15:06Tap to summarizeOn this episode, Brett discusses a bread-scanning AI software that ends up being repurposed to save lives identifying cancel cells. Not all AI is trying to kill us! ...yet. Then Josh laughs manically as Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Jon Sandman fall victim to one of the best/worst villains in video game history: Vaas Montenegro. Move over Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul because actor Michael Mando's most iconic role will forever be the video game baddie for a promotional YouTube "Film" that is way better than it should be: The Far Cry Experience.

Transcribe →Pro Mortality / Pokémon GO
May 23, 202401:32:28Tap to summarizeOn this episode, Josh discusses a video essay breakdown about The Walking Dead's Dr. Jenner of the CDC and his pro-moralist attempt at mercy killing non-zombified humans. Hey, we get it... the zombie apocalypse would be stressful but don't be such a dick, Edwin. Then Brett forgoes his usual content recommendation to deliver in important public service announcement about the dangers of a popular augmented reality mobile game. Just say NO to Pokémon GO!
