December 14, 2021 5 - The Films of Akira Kurosawa (Part 2: Crime Dramas)
*CONTENT WARNING: Mentions of suicide. It's mostly in passing and only mentioned 2-3 times, but it does come up.*
Oh boy, this one is good! If you enjoyed the buds' discussion of Akira Kurosawa's Samurai Films, you'll enjoy this one too! Alex is giddy over discussing Stray Dog (1949), The Bad Sleep Well (1960), and High and Low (1963)! These really are great films, and if you haven't seen them, please go watch them wherever you can!

November 02, 2021 2 - Spiderman 3 (2007)
Alex gets out of breath talking about Sam Raimi's Spiderman 3. Sorry.

Also, this was recorded awhile ago in the pre-'Snyder Cut' era and the buds have since seen it. They did not like it and won't apologize for it (If this is confusing, it's because you're here, reading this, and not listening. Or maybe you are listening while reading but you haven't gotten to this, admittedly, very small section of this episode. It's really a throw away line. You know what? Just go ahead and listen...Thanks).
