Crofton and Ryan are teaching their kids to read, and they are learning as they go. From favourite kid lit to patience to reading glasses - they cover it all. But before getting to reading, it is all about that screen time with spoiler-free discussions of Andor Season 2, DOOM: The Dark Ages, and some medical show Ryan can't pronounce (St. Denny's Medical? St. Danny's Medical?). All of this and Crofton gets the band back together to play Valheim and it is amazing. Come listen!

Netflix or Disney +?; Apple TV+ or Crave? This week, the guys dive into the streaming services that feed us our shows. Which ones are worth it?

No matter what we do, our kids are watching. For good or for ill, we are influencing them all the time. This week, Ryan and Crofton talk about how their parenting is going and the impressions they are leaving. But before that, Crofton recaps this year's WRESTLEMANIA and Ryan reads the latest John Scalzi book that may be a bit cheezy. All of this, a Blue Prince and more. Come listen!

Let's all just take a break from this crazy world and go to the movies! But what movies? Should we make our kids watch our old favourites? Or try some new classics? But before all that talk, Ryan explains to Crofton how his new Source Code book is about Bill Gates and is not the novelization of a Jake Gyllenhal movie. Crofton signed back up for Xbox Game Pass and shares thoughts on South of Midnight and Lonely Mountain: Snow Riders. All of this and there is a new watch to watch out for. Come listen!

Go west young man, go west! That is what Crofton is trying to tell Ryan in this western-fused episode as he finishes up the epic novel Lonesome Dove and dabbles in some Red Dead Redemption 2. But Ryan's only journey west is into western fantasy with Avowed. Is it more of a Dragon's Age than Dragon Age? Come find out. The topic of the day is a discussion on how to advocate – be it for your kids or your community- as Crofton struggles with saving his daughters' school. All of that and Ryan cozies up to his favourite fictional serial killer, Dexter! Come listen!
