It’s our annual Spotify Wrapped episode — the one where we pour a couple shots, open the app, and immediately question every life choice that led to these results.

This year? Wrapped went off the rails in the best possible way.

We dig into shocking Top Artists, unexpected genres, and a few curveballs that had both of us staring at our phones wondering, “Is this really us?” Spoiler: apparently yes. We also compare listening habits, celebrate some true gems, debate a couple of guilty pleasures, and try to figure out how the algorithm thinks our year went.

It’s all the fun, surprises, and light roasting you’d expect from a Wrapped breakdown, plus a few Two Shot twists you won’t see coming.

Join us as we close out the year the only way we know how: laughing at ourselves, shouting out the artists who soundtracked our lives, and raising a glass to every listener who helped make this our biggest year yet.

Thanks for being part of the ride. And we're not even close to being done yet.

This week, we unpack one of the wildest chapters yet — Jason’s acting adventure in Tokyo. From navigating spotless streets and jam-packed subways to learning when to bow, it was culture shock in the best possible way.

We talk about what it’s really like stepping onto a set in another country, working through a language barrier, and living out of 7-Elevens at all hours, all without giving a single spoiler about the project itself.

It’s travel, acting, nerves, excitement, and a whole lot of perspective. Just two friends, two shots, and one unforgettable trip halfway around the world.

This week, The Movie Guy Rob Peets joins us from the dark reaches of space to talk Predator: Badlands, a wild, over-the-top entry in one of sci-fi’s most chaotic franchises.

We dig into the IMAX spectacle, the alien family drama (yes, really), and what makes this one stand out in the Predator universe. Rob brings the sharp takes, Barry brings the quotes, and Jason brings... questions. Lots of them.

Just three friends, two shots, and one intergalactic hunt.

This week, we kick things off with one of the most unexpected announcements in Two Shot Tuesday history — Barry’s going to see 50 Cent live in Toronto. Meanwhile, Jason defends his sweater shopping habits and unveils the practical brilliance of something called Hand Plus.

We also revisit Shin Godzilla, debate cavemen bonfires in our Ripped from the Headlines segment, and talk about Airbnbing a floating house in Greenland. It’s an episode packed with laughs, pop-culture tangents, and the kind of back-and-forth that makes Tuesdays better.

Just two friends, two shots, and a whole lot of fun.

We’re back with a monster of an episode! This week, we weigh in on Shin Godzilla and John Carpenter’s In the Mouth of Madness: two wildly different takes on chaos, paranoia, and cinematic brilliance. Barry’s torn between subtitles and steelbooks, Jason’s all-in on creature features, and somewhere along the way, we ask the question: does willpower even exist?

It’s all fuelled by a couple of pours of Bearface Whisky, first discovered at the Whisky Global Toronto show, where the maple notes hit almost as hard as Godzilla’s tail.

Two friends. Two shots. One unforgettable Tuesday (or whichever day you check it out).

We wandered into a corn maze and somehow ended up talking Stephen King, The Shining, Children of the Corn, and even David Bowie’s hair in Labyrinth.

Along the way, we poured a little more Bearface Whisky from the Whisky Global Toronto show, swapped some movie takes, and found just enough Halloween energy to keep things weird (in the best way).

It’s Two Shot Tuesday at its finest: swift, funny, and fueled by great conversation.

We’re back for Season Six of Two Shot Tuesday, and this one starts strong. Barry shows off his new Manta Ray weight bench, built for serious workouts and even better stories, while Jason dives into the world of comics with Jim Lee’s Hush and the upcoming Hush 2.

We talk fitness, fandom, and what’s ahead this season, from more movie reviews to the kind of laid-back conversations that have kept Two Shot Tuesday rolling for six seasons.

We’re wrapping up Season Five of Two Shot Tuesday with a night to remember — our VIP experience at Whisky Global Toronto.

We share what it was like to step inside one of the city’s biggest whiskey events, sample incredible pours, and meet the passionate vendors behind them. From smooth single malts to surprising new favourites, we break down what stood out, what impressed us most, and which whiskey won the night.

It’s the perfect way to close out the season — a toast to good company, great spirits, and even better conversations.

This week on Two Shot Tuesday, we welcome back The Movie Guy, Rob Peets, to dive headfirst into the glowing grid of Tron Aries — the latest chapter in the Tron saga.

We talk about everything from Jared Leto’s polarizing performance to the Nine Inch Nails–powered soundtrack that gives the film its pulse. The visuals? Stunning. The story? Well… we have thoughts. We also get into how Tron Aries stacks up against the originals and why it might be best experienced on the biggest IMAX screen you can find.

It’s all the usual Two Shot Tuesday fun: smart takes, good laughs, and a toast to movies that look amazing even when they don’t always make sense.

This week on Two Shot Tuesday, Barry returns from a scorching weekend at Austin City Limits — VIP pass in hand, ice-cold beer in the other. He shares stories of seeing The Strokes live, soaking up the Texas heat, and experiencing the festival in true first-class style.

Meanwhile, Jason cools things down with a trip back to Elm Street, revisiting A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2: Freddy’s Revenge, this time in stunning 4K. It’s the perfect mix of music, movies, and mayhem Two Shot style.
