Some say it’s the end of Peak Television, but there’s a lot of TeeVee out there making a claim otherwise. Join Ronald, Steve, and John as they share what they’ve been watching lately on the small screen, including Shogun, The Curse, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, and more!

Shai-Hulud beckoned Ronald, Steve, and John to the sands of Arrakis, and the call has been answered.

On this week's pod Ronald, Steve, and John contemplate this week's Required Viewing pick, 2021's Nine Days, and then move on to a grab bag of reviews, including the new Liam Hemsworth actioner, Land of Bad, a Coen brother film, Drive-Away Dolls, and a new animated Netflix film written by Charlie Kaufman called Orion and the Dark.

Ron, Steve, and John spend way too much time obsessing over their year-end lists of the best new movies they saw, so it’s only fair that you spend a fraction of that time listening to this episode where they excitedly share the results. Find out which of 2023’s crop made the cut and which ones didn’t! See if your faves get a mention! Disagree loudly by arguing into the void! Anything can happen in List Town.

To celebrate their 400th episode, Ron, Steve, and John once again report for duty at Schmovie Studios, aka The House That Thrice Built (if you know you know) for an all-new edition of The Schmovie Studios Movie Game. 

Ron, Steve, and John kick off 2024 with a look at Brian De Palma’s 1974 horror-comedy-musical Phantom of the Paradise and then dig into the mysteries of True Detective’s triumphant return with an eerie and atmospheric fourth season called Night Country.
