This week, the crew breaks down the latest geek headlines and reviews! We react to new trailers for The Bride, Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, Avatar: Fire and Ash, and Predator: Badlands. Then, we dive into Peacemaker Season 2 Episode 7, "Like A Keith In The Night," before reviewing A24's The Smashing Machine (2025) starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.

🧠 In "What Are We Watching?" we share thoughts on Gen V Season 2 Episode 5 and Tron: Legacy.
