When you think of the Baloo dancing scene in the Jungle Book, where did he have the coconut shells?  That question led us down a deep hole of discussion, with mind blowing theories!  We're collapsing bubble universes, which brought us to Kang and his purpose.  And also, the new Wonder Years connected with more than just the original show, but also with Jake.

Jeff comes out of retirement for this banger, and we talk about the future of the DCU.  As of now, we know Wonder Woman 3 isn't happening and Cavill is out as Superman, though he has mad Geek credentials and might have secured himself a sweet future project.  However, we don't know the future of Momoa and Ezra Miller quite yet though we have no problem speculating.  We also heard Affleck is still gonna have a presence, possibly directing something.  We fantasize about a Plastic Man movie, and who would play him.  Val Kilmer comes up in conversation and we discuss his best roles.  What's your favorite Val Kilmer film?

Wednesday is HOT!  Possibly the day of the week but definitely the show, for sure.  It maintains a bunch of the kookiness from the Addams family lore, and adds a nice touch of spookiness.  We talk about everyone's favorite character actor, Michael Rooker, and some his best roles.  The DCEU continues to make waves with the announcement of WW3 not moving forward, and Patti Jenkins comments regarding the situation.  And it's determined that Mitch loves clown based things.  What do you got?

We talk about streaming services, which ones should go and which are gonna stay strong.  How does AMC+ survive?  Is there content game that strong?  We reminisce about that days where you needed an appointment to watch a show, not knowing when you would see that episode again.  Watching your favorite shows each week, with or without friends.  We also talk the Guardians Xmas special, which was delightful.  Also, Disney+ seems to be dumping content to Hulu based on performance.  Are they getting rid of low performing content from their flagship service to make their rating look better?  Last, we talk the implications of Legendary Pictures, and Christopher Nolan, leaving a deal with WB to pursue other avenues, specifically with Sony.  They don't like how WB is doing business, especially with regards to releasing movies directly to streaming, rather than theaters.  What are your thoughts?

On this podcast we discuss all things pop culture provided that our DVR’s have space and our streaming accounts are paid up.  This week, the Geeks (Mitch, Jake & Matt Orrin), joined by comedian Tripp Kerr, are virtually together to discuss all things geek.   

It's a sad day, for we lost Kevin Conroy today.  The true voice of the Dark Knight is gone, and we mourn his passing.  To match that grief, we discuss a movie with the central theme of grief and trauma: Wakanda Forever.  The new Black Panther movie pays great tribute to Chadwick, right out the gate.  Warning - make sure to have tissues on hand when you watch this movie.  We get to see Namor is all his glory and he does a wonderful job.  We talk Mythic Quest, a new show from Charlie Day and Rob McElhenney.  Last, James Gunn is working on the DCEU bible, which hopefully has the lasting power of the New Testament.  What are YOU hoping to see in the Gunn DCEU?

It's Election day, as of this recording, and we vote on our favorite Clint Howard movies!  Titans is also back, so we jump into that a little bit, mostly out of excitement that Zazlav hasn't cancelled it.  Doom Patrol is coming back soon, which is great news for Brendan Frasers continued resurgence.  How these shows tie in to the James Gunn DCEU will hopefully become apparent.  Last, Mitch and Jake talk the new Quantum Leap.
