Joyously join Adam and Al as they brave brain fog and withstand the winter while wondering aloud about Batman (1966).  Along with alliterations they discuss Austin Powers, jihad, and StarKid musicals, plus Al gets optimistic about Paul Greengrass's Oscar chances.

Adam and Al are never wrong, but occasionally...they do disagree. Check out their thoughts on 2001's Minority Report, where they mention Brad Pitt, reused Disney animation, and The Game of Life (not a sponsor).

Christmas came early! Or at least our Christmas episode did. Adam and Al forget their French literature as they discuss 1990's Home Alone. They mention Scarface, Better Call Saul, and Greg Sestero.

Is it the Star Wars Holiday Special? No, but we still mention the franchise a lot. We moved up our Christmas episode so you can hear it BEFORE all that family time on Christmas Day - or during. No judgment. We'll be back in 2023 with more episodes (but less holiday cheer).

We're baseketBACK, baby! Are you up for a wildcat strike but not down for the World Cup? Then listen to Adam and Al bring up all their non-sponsors as they discuss 1998's BASEketball. They mention It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, Hillary's emails, and Happy Gilmore (twice!).

Adam and Al get all meta as they talk about 2012's The Cabin in the Woods. They mention BriTANick, Breaking Bad, and Elon Musk.

Some small corrections: Turns out it was actually Grapico that Al was pranked with. And we'll be trying this out on a bi-weekly basis (that means one every two weeks, you Dollop fans), so our next episode will be in two weeks, not next week. We can only apologize. We can also move on. We'll probably just move on.

Adam and Al forget podcast and people names as they talk about 2009's Drag Me to Hell. They discuss Ian McKellen, Barack Obama, and black Oscar winners.

Trick or treat, don't smell our feet - this isn't a Tarantino flick. Adam and Al hunt for sponsors as the other M. Myers hunts for people in 1978's Halloween. They discuss Ben Shapiro, Sean Connery, and My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

When the facts interfere with the fiction, the fiction fails. But when Adam and Al get into a heated debate, the season finale is a success! Check out their take on Spike Lee's 2018 BlacKkKlansman, where they discuss COINTELPRO, Crash, and conservative comedy. Al also shouts from a mountaintop (or maybe a mountainside - what is this, a season finale cliffhanger???) and doubles down on Fred Hampton, the Battle of Stirling Bridge, and of course Dungeons and Daddies.

We're not young, our heart's not an open book, and this isn't a James Bond minisode - we're here to live and let LIVE. Al discusses another weird German phrase this time, bringing up Outlander devil marks, pineapple on pizza, and the paradox of democracy.

What happened to Adam? Where did he go? Is he actually a sleeper agent from the secret New Zealand colony on Mars? The answer may shock you. Or maybe not. Al's not great at clickbait, but he does bring up Albert Einstein, karaoke, and unflattering shorts in this UNPRECEDENTED minisode.
