Today on the 5: I came across an interesting relic of what HBO used to be in 1994's Witch Hunt. It's more or less a reboot of a lovely movie titled Cast A Deadly Spell. While it's not as good as that earlier film, it's still a lot of fun.

Today on the 5: One of the byproducts of the release of Oppenheimer is stories delving into the lesser known aspects of the history of the atomic bomb. This is just the latest example of how much we often overlook or don't know about everything from bombs to our cellphones. 

Today on the 5: Just over 2 years ago my wife and I started playing Super Mega Baseball 3 and we ended up having a rerally good time with it. Becaue of that, we jumped right into Super Mega Baseball 4 and while it's still largely a fun game, the shadow of the developer being acquired by EA is hard to miss.

Today on the 5: Between stories about LLMs possibly getting worse over time and examinations on how useful it will really be, we may be seeing a deflation of the hype cycle around "AI". I think that will benefit everyone in the long run.

Today on the 5: Over the weekend I watched a movie titled Werewolves On Wheels. Based on the poster and the summary, you'd expect a wild exploitation film filled with gore and nudity. What you get, though, is something very different.

This week we're talking about North Of The Border, The Nth Review, Prey , Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse, and Radioactive Dreams. Show music by HeartBeatHero and OGRE. Support the show!

Today on the 5: You may have heard that a popular YouTube channel called Linus Tech Tips is taking a break after apparently making multiple mistakes in how it produces content. While it's not an excuse for what was done, I'm not sure what othet outcome anyone would expect from a channel chasing YouTube relevancy.

Today on the 5: Years ago I dismissed the video game Prey thinking it was something that just wasn't for me. I largely forgot about it until a few weeks ago when I came across this fantastic video detailing how it was a well made immersive sim. After seeing that, I jumped into the game and I boy was I a dummy for waiting this long.

Today on the 5: Thanks to a message on one of the Discords I hang out in, I was able to watch the post nuclear film Radioactive Dreams. While I was I had access to a better copy than this YouTube upoad, it was still an extremely fun movie.
