This week we are back with the big news that Netflix has purchased Warner Brothers, but Paramount chimes in with a much larger bid! Leaving people to wonder about the future of the DCU lead by James Gunn. Others see this as an opportunity to resurrect the previous "Snyderverse." But why do people put that the Cinematic Universe on such a high pedestal? Out of 12 (actually 16) movies 3 are arguably good or great. The rest are just okay or terrible. 

And in comparison the equal number of releases from Marvel seems to be the exact opposite. Far more hits than misses. 

On top of that "Welcome to Derry" tackles releases the evil entity into the world to cause fear and confusion to unite our county. A character stops the show just to rant about everything that is wrong with the country in 1962. But it oddly sounds like everything wrong with America in 2025. 

Shoky discusses the new movie "The Roses." A dark comedy about how fame and money can tear a family apart. Starring Benedict Comberbatch and Olivia Coleman. Often funny, but definitely an all too real depiction of real marriage when roles and priorities shift suddenly.

Another brand new movie in the "Five Nights at Freddy's" franchise just dropped and Shoky gives us his review. Did it hold up to the first movie or did it flop like a lifeless animatronic? 

Last in movies: 2 new trailers came in front of FNAF 2. Including "Anaconda," Silent Night, Deadly Night," and "The Bride" starring Lady Gaga and......some guy who played Batman for a few movies. Seriously we could not remember his name!

Random thought: if you created a new energy source that hasn't existed yet, would you be scared that it would be used for military purposes? That happened to a friend of mine. But I argued that a new potent form of energy would be used to power Data Centers and AI production instead. Did you know that there are fake neighborhoods created just to disguise data centers? Did you also know farmlands are being bought to run "energy corridors" though different states so they can have direct access for the growth of AI? 

Finally we discuss the mounting tensions in the political podcast sphere. Tim Pool and Candace Owens have been going back and forth. He has repeatedly called her out for her lies and manipulation of her audience as Youtube seems to prop up her show despite the her conduct going directly against policy. And shortly after a spicy Friday night show, a car pulled up to Timcast studios and opened fire on the building several times. We've reached a place in this country where people think it's okay to assassinate podcasters. Charlie Kirk was the first. Crowder has been assaulted. Tim has had tons of bomb threats and swattings.

How did we get here?
