Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the second episode of "We Are Not Movie Critics," the show where we dive into the world of movies, TV shows, and all the captivating content that graces our screens. I'm your host, James Condliffe, and even in the midst of the recent writers and actors strike, we're here to bring you a lively discussion with a news segment covering everything from Taylor Swift to a touching tribute to the late Michael Gambon.

Now, you might be wondering why we're not your typical movie critics. Well, it's simple - we're enthusiasts, just like you. We're not here to nitpick every detail or analyze every camera angle. Instead, we want to share our genuine excitement and passion for the entertainment that makes us laugh, cry, and ponder.

Speaking of passion, in today's episode, we have a special treat for you. Our interview segment this week covers the origin of the podcast with an interview from your host touching on the gritty "The Batman" from 2022. Get ready to cover the mystery as we dive into the dark world of Gotham City and learn how this movie sparked the origin of this podcast. Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy.
