Jen and Dagda dive deep into the wild world of streaming wars and Hollywood scandals! They unpack the shocking story of director Carl Eric Rinsch, who defrauded Netflix out of $55 million with promises of a sci-fi epic that never materialized—spending the money on drugs, five Rolls Royces, and a $439,000 handmade mattress. The conversation shifts to Netflix's massive $82.7 billion bid to acquire Warner Brothers Discovery, what it means for beloved franchises like Harry Potter and Welcome to Derry, and why Paramount's counter-offer doesn't stand a chance. Along the way, they debate casting choices for the new Harry Potter TV series, discuss why fandoms resist change, and imagine what would happen if Elon Musk bought HBO. Plus: tangents about Keanu Reeves' generosity, Martin Freeman's MCU role, the Duffer Brothers' creative genius, and why entertainment needs to evolve. It's a caffeinated conversation full of pop culture insights, industry analysis, and plenty of laughs!

In this action-packed episode, Jen and Dagda dive deep into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, focusing on the newly released Thunderbolts film and the highly anticipated Avengers: Doomsday.

After catching up on post-holiday life and Dresden Files progress, Jen shares her thoughts on finally watching Thunderbolts—a movie she believes should have been released immediately after Endgame. She breaks down the cast, including Florence Pugh's breathtaking real-life skyscraper jump in Kuala Lumpur, and explores the complex character of Sentry/Void (played by Lewis Pullman), whose mental health struggles—schizophrenia, addiction, depression—are portrayed with surprising depth and authenticity.

The conversation shifts to Avengers: Doomsday, where Jen reveals the massive ensemble cast featuring original Avengers, Wakandans, the Fantastic Four, and the return of the original X-Men (Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, James Marsden, and more). They discuss Robert Downey Jr.'s casting as Victor Von Doom, the Jonathan Majors controversy, and their hopes for Deadpool and Wolverine's appearance.

Jen and Dagda also rant about Marvel Zombies, debate which MCU shows are worth watching (Loki, Ms. Marvel, Moon Knight), and discuss the importance of mental health representation in superhero films. This episode is a love letter to the MCU and a rallying cry for the next phase of the Avengers saga.

Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of mental health issues (schizophrenia, depression, addiction), strong language, and references to violence.

In this heartfelt episode, Jen and Dagda pay tribute to the legendary filmmaker Rob Reiner following the tragic news of his and his wife Michelle's murder.

The conversation begins with coffee talk—chocolate notes, flan textures, and Max Miller's chocolate wine—before shifting to the devastating Hollywood tragedy. Jen walks through Rob Reiner's incredible 60-year career, from his iconic role as Meathead in All in the Family to directing beloved classics like Stand By Me (1986), The Princess Bride (1987), When Harry Met Sally (1989), Misery (1990), A Few Good Men (1992), and The Bucket List (2007).

They discuss his unrealized dream projects, including directing the Harry Potter films and a star-studded Into the Woods musical with Robin Williams, Steve Martin, and Cher. The episode takes a somber turn as Jen explores the mental health struggles of Nick Reiner, Rob's son and the primary suspect in the murders, who suffers from schizophrenia and drug addiction.

Jen emphasizes the importance of mental health awareness and celebrates Rob Reiner's humanitarian legacy, his devotion to his family, and his quiet professionalism. This episode is a touching tribute to a man who gave the world laughter, tears, and unforgettable stories.

In this special year-end episode, Jen and Dagda explore the fascinating history behind New Year's resolutions and the beloved song "Auld Lang Syne." Journey back to ancient Babylonia (4,000 years ago) and ancient Rome (46 BC) to discover how Julius Caesar established January 1st in honor of Janus, the two-faced god of beginnings and endings. Learn about the Christian covenant renewal services of the 18th century and why most resolutions fail by the end of January.

The hosts also dive deep into the Scottish origins of "Auld Lang Syne," from Robert Burns' 1788 poem to Guy Lombardo's Royal Canadians making it an American New Year's tradition in 1929. Along the way, they share personal perspectives on why they don't make resolutions, discuss tabletop gaming characters, and reflect on the importance of trying to do better every day rather than once a year.
