Mudville

It's the World Series! We look at the Diamondbacks and Rangers: their stars, their rookies, their damaged aces, their past, present, and future. But first, we have a message for the unserious bladder brigade whining about yet another Scorsese masterpiece. Nolan watched two De Palma classics, Phantom of the Paradise (1974) and Carrie (1976), and wouldn't you know it: they're pretty great. We preview some movies we're excited to see this week, Alexander Payne's The Holdovers and David Fincher's The Killer. Brody is unhappy with the state of network television.

🚨 🚨 RANT ALERT 🚨 🚨 The guys are feeling rant-y following a TERRIBLE showing from the Giants on Sunday against the Jets, Morgan manages to insult an entire fanbase encompassing (far less than) half of the New York Metropolitan area, and Brody has no idea what Brian brings to the Daboll. The boys also check in on the Knicks first three games of the season.Giants/Jets - 0:00Knicks - 36:20

Morgan and Brody are back at it, the boys take a look at the upcoming Giants and Jets showdown, Morgan got his wish regarding Sean Casey, and the Knicks return tonight. GO NEW YORK GO NEW YORK GO!

Giants/Jets: 6:49

Yankees: 18:07

Mets: 26:06

London correspondent Molly Thomas (@angelinrealtime) joins the show to discuss Philly's 3-2 lead in the NLCS and the movies she saw at the London Film Festival, including the new Scorsese which Nolan is still recovering from. Dudes rocking on bikes, Sofia Coppola's take on a mid-century American myth, celebrity gossip, and a new all-time favorite? It's all happening here on Mudville.

ITS PLAYOFF SZN! The Wild Card round is here and we're breaking down all the matchups. The Brewers lost an ace and the D-Backs are rolling with rookie Brandon Pfaadt in Game 1. The Phillies and Marlins prepare for a philosophical divisional clash. The Rangers have the misfortune of visiting Tropicana Field in a matchup that could be a lot more exciting if both teams aces were healthy. The Blue Jays and Twins can't both lose, right?

We look back at the friends we lost along the way, 18 teams who fell just short or never stood a chance. Where did they go wrong? Who has the brightest (or bleakest) future? We cover 26 teams in this special episode! (the Orioles, Astros, Braves, and Dodgers will just have to wait.)

It's all happening once: The WGA strike is (tentatively) over, and the regular season has but a week to go. We celebrate the huge victory for creatives and unions everywhere and disagree over the word "content," before diving into a slew of topics. Nolan secured a ticket to Killers of the Flower Moon and remembers an all-time theatergoing experience: attending the LA premiere of The Irishman. We get into the differences between film and television, and what went wrong for The Walking Dead. Both the AL & NL Wild Cards are pure chaos and we're dissecting the rest of the schedule. Brody got really into Only Murders in the Building" and Nolan went on a New Hollywood auteur kick with Duel, The Untouchables, The Fury, and Hardcore.

Lastly, on October 1st we'll be announcing the launch of the Mudville Patreon. It's a bit earlier than we intended to do this, but we get into why on the show and will explain more very, very soon. It's free to sign up, and we hope you'll decide to join and support us: www.patreon.com/mudville
