Tom Oord (Fool's Gold Variety Hour, my actual cousin) joins the Jason Statham Film Festival to discuss Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw. It's a blast, both the movie and the conversation. We try to work out how we feel about the Rock these days, revel in some big stupid stunts, try to figure out if Eiza Gonzalez was already famous when she appeared in this movie, and also we talk about the Penguin. We had a lot of fun and I think you'll enjoy it!74

NOTE: Due to technical issues (read: the producer not recording the microphone that we were talking into), the sound quality is a little shaky this episode. But Sam Kenny cleaned it up as much as he could and we still think you'll enjoy it.

For Tom Waits' 75th Birthday, EJ is joined by friends and Tom Fans Becky, Becke, and Brad to draft their favorite Tom Waits songs. It is a very fun discussion celebrating one of the all-time greats. Friendship!

It's Cranksgiving! You know, the holiday when people watch both Crank movies. For our fourth annual Cranksgiving episode, it's the Cranksgiving Drinking Game. We'll talk about the rules in the episode, but EJ gets very drunk and more personal than you might expect. Also, Crank rules. Honestly, this is a messy episode. Maybe it's funny, but at the very least we take the stance that all other movies can eat a butt.

EJ is dealing with a lot of stuff after the election. He's maybe not smart or informed enough to just talk politics at length, but he needs this. But after a lot of rambling, he has a couple of delightful movies to discuss.  We're all doing our best over here.

EJ has news of an important lifestyle change and then talks a lot about a TV show and a video game, both from 2019. Perpetual Grace, Ltd and Baba Is You are both great but only one of them has Ben Kingsley singing "When Doves Cry".  And in the Jason Statham Film Festival, we finally meet The Meg.

Yes, there is some saucy talk but nothing that will require you to picture EJ doing anything disreputable or even fun. We've got thoughts on The Wild Robot, Agatha All Along, and Penguin. Plus Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is a tearjerker and the Jason Statham Film Festival looks at Fate of the Furious for some great action scenes and also some complete nonsense.

We're celebrating the 20th Anniversary of LOST with fan-favorite Hayley Leier (ADHD-DVD). Just having a great time talking about our favorite show: The episodes we keep rewatching, our theories that didn't pan out, our favorite characters and the love we still have for all those Lostaways. It was an absolute joy to record and I hope you'll enjoy it as much as we did!

After weeks of technical issues, EJ is back to talk about watching the last Jason Statham movie he hadn't seen with the deeply average Mechanic: Resurrection. Also, a favorite show comes to streaming and EJ talks about when he met James Earl Jones.

We're rewinding the Film Festival to take another look at Parker with special guest Justin Morissette (ADHD-DVD)! We talk about Taylor Hackford, Jennifer Lopez, Big Brother, post-pandemic movies, when an adaptation is maybe too faithful to the book, why that one scene is so much better than the rest of the movie, and much more! Check it out! We had so much fun that EJ's computer overheated and shut down mid-episode so there's going to be a transition that we did our best to smooth out.

After a hectic few weeks, EJ checks in with the movies and TV he's been watching. Twisters, Deadpool/Wolverine, Caped Crusader, Sunny, Time Bandits, and more! He has a sore throat, but he's doing his best.
