November means the theaters are packed with awards hopefuls, and this week Cole and Zach are joined by Trevor to explore Park Chan-wook's newest thriller, Decision to Leave. The gang also discusses (spoiler-free) a other awards winners and awards hopefuls, Triangle of Sadness, The Banshees of Inisherin and Armageddon Time. Check out our new movie roundup!

For the second week, Cole and Zach are joined by a Jams & Tea guest, Morgan, to discuss seasonal horror watchlists and Kiyoshi Kurosawa's procedural masterpiece, Cure. Stay tuned for (spoiler free!) discussions of TAR and Decision to Leave!

This October, our horror maestros are celebrating the season with a horror medley – first a rundown of our recent horror watchlists, then a breakdown of Argento's original 1977 nightmare masterpiece, Suspiria, and Guadagnino's 2018 reimagining of the same name. Grab your candy bowl and tap in! 

You may have heard, the biggest movie in history is back in theaters. This week, Cole and Zach get together to discuss James Cameron's feast for the senses, James Cameron's Avatar, and discuss its technological innovations, lasting appeal and one-of-a-kind theatrical experience. 

This week, Zach and Cole discuss one of the great Italian filmmakers, Luchino Visconti, his life, his work, and particularly The Leopard and The Damned. Visconti's films are a rich, vivid tapestry of history, and this conversation is a primer to give some context to his films and unpack what makes them epic and epochal. 

Cue the strings! Cole's back from vacation, and together he and Zach cover several summer new releases - Bodies, Bodies, Bodies, Beast, Inu-Oh and Prey - before Cole launches into an impassioned defense of one of the most reviled films of the 1990s, Gus Van Sant's remake of Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho, starring the late Anne Heche and Vince Vaughn. 

This week, Zach is joined by new guest Davey to discuss Fran Kranz' debut film, Mass, one of the most emotionally powerful, achingly relevant, well acted, yet badly underseen and underdiscussed films of 2021. It's an empathetic and totally assured work from a first time filmmaker and screenwriter, and we make the case why you should seek it out and experience all it has to offer.

The French are glad to die for love. In part two of our big Baz Luhrmann bonanza, Cole and Zach discuss one of the best, glitziest and most tragic movie musicals of the 21st century, Moulin Rouge! Join us as we journey, song by song, through the mad Australian's pop opus and its numerous tour de force setpieces and performances.

We're all shook up. This week, Cole and Zach are re-joined by friend James (@JamesScrambles), returning from his appearance on the Macbeth/West Side Story episode, to discuss an all new movie musical, Baz Luhrmann's summertime dazzler, Elvis! In this conversation we discuss Austin Butler's star power, Tom Hanks' deeply strange-yet-effective turn, and all the passion, style and verve that make Elvis one of the best of this year and the rare music biopic that truly works.
