About Brainwaves
From the publisher's feed
Brainwaves is two GenX guys who never quite let go of the good stuff. Jason Reilly and Barry Nixon take the movies, comics, TV shows and cartoons that raised them and drag them, kicking and screaming, into middle age, one pointless debate at a time. How you watch a movie. What's worth owning. The stuff you loved at twelve that you're weirdly still defending at fifty. It's about 20 minutes, it settles nothing, and you'll leave with a laugh, a hot take, and something to argue about.
If you grew up on the good stuff and you're still holding onto it, you're home.
