We finally get to see them X! On a surprise Authorized, Paxton Holley returns to discuss a massive collab between Godzilla and Kong, and basically explain this whole franchise to us.

It’s about time we started making a Planet of the Apes around here! This week, David Sims returns to discuss John Jakes’ terrific novelization of Conquest of the Planet of the Apes. The violence is more brutal, the oppression more topical, and the setting more tropical! (That last one is a lie).

Next time on Authorized: We rank the 1960s novelizations

This week on Authorized, we watch a movie no one has seen and it's awful. But the novelization is interesting, mostly in that it takes an innocent little anonymous bad film and makes it into a hateful, sexist little anonymous bad book.

We're joined by Felix and Rabia of Suddenly: A Frank Sinatra podcast, who give us the context on Frank Sinatra, the author Jack Pearl, and much, much more.

An Authorized first- We review a novelization written by a guy who was in prison at the time he wrote it.

We're joined by returning guest Mark Stay to discuss the mysterious man Zeno, and the very cool man Michael Caine, who shines in this extremely bleak war drama. Play Dirty!
