On this week's episode the boys go over Thor's recommendation, 2017's smash-hit video game for Nintendo Switch "Legend of Zelda, Breath of The Wild". 5 years later and BOTW remains one of the most streamed/played games for Nintendo. With it's open world/adventure design and non-linear game-play this game changed the way open world RPG's would be made for years to come, Grab your sword, shield, and tight green spandex. We're going on an adventure to save a princess and quite possibly the entire world!

On this weeks episode the boys go over Micah's recommendation, Black Dynamite. This 2009 blaxploitation parody film was written and produced by Michael Jai White... By the way he also stars in it and does all his own Kung-Fu action scenes. There is only one word to describe this movie. Absurd! This movie feels like it's straight out of the 70's. Complete with big hair, cheesy action stunts, and hilarious one liners. This one is a must watch.

On this weeks episode the boys go over Thor's recommendation, the 1995 cult classic "Tank Girl" starring Lori Petty. This film adaptation of the comic strip of the same name is an absolute wild ride. Get ready for a dystopian future where water is the most valuable resource, giant mutated kangaroos run wild, and the only hope for humanity is a girl and her tank.

On this week's episode the boys review Micah's recommendation, A Very Potter Musical. This 2009 musical production was written and produced by Darren Criss (of "Glee" fame). The video available on YouTube, is from a performance of the musical filmed in 2009 at The University of Michigan. Criss stars as Harry Potter in this totally fan-made parody of the series, Grab your broom and potions kit, because we're heading to Hogwarts, and its sure to be magical.

On this weeks episode the boys review Thor's recommendation, The 1980's punk band CRASS. Their music has been described as avant-garde and experimental as they created the anarchist peace-punk movement. And they didn't just paly music. These rascals also got into all kinds of hijinks including pulling a prank on Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan. Get your leather and strap on your combat boots as we dumpster-dive into CRASS.

On this weeks episode the boys review a fan submission, the 2019 Spanish cerebral horror film "The Platform" from director Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia. This film is absolutely wild from top to bottom (pun definitely intended). If you're into cannibalism, sh*tting, and thinly-veiled critiques of society, then this is the flick for you! Strap in and eat your fill as we descend into "The Platform".

On this week's episode the boys go over Micah's recommendation, the 2008 comedy/drama crime thriller "In Bruges" from director Martin McDonagh starring Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson. This movie truly has it all. Comedy? check. Heartbreak? check. Midgets? one big damn check!
