Today on the 5: Over the weekend I watched a movie from 1989 titled They Call Me Macho Woman. While it has some very enjoyable low budget flaws, in the end it largely wastes what could have been a very fun concept. It's easy to watch it for free, but I doubt many viewers will make it all the way through.

Today on the 5: Logitech has announced a new set of hardware devices aimed at creatives called the MX Creative Console. While I find the hardware interesting and potentially very useful, I'm not sure I trust Logitech to have the software to back it up.

Today on the 5: Whenever a new law or criticism is aimed at curbing the influence of social media, it's almost inevitable that some compare the concerns over those platforms with past hysteria over various forms of media. While I understand that impulse, I'm not sure it's really a fair comparison.

Today on the 5: YouTube has recently announced that they will be adding AI tools for creators in the platform to provide inspiration and limited content. This news has me wondering what an already fairly homogenous platform will look like when creators are steered by a tool that will certainly relfect that lack of diversity.

This week we're talking about lift kits, heat waves, mythology, Twilight Of The Warriors: Walled In, and made for TV edits. Show music by HeartBeatHero and OGRE. Support the show!

Today on the 5: Apple has started running ads for their upcoming Apple Intelligence product. Based on the reaction my wife had to it, I think that Apple and the rest of these companies trying to sell the public on AI may have a long road ahead.

Today on the 5: I give Apple a hard time about a lot of things, and many them revolve around their bad design decisions. That said, I have to credit the company for disproving the rumors about eliminating all buttons from iPhones!

Today on the 5: As part of the most recent episode of Len Kabasinksi's Forgotten Movie Den, I watched a 1988 film titled Night Wars. Reading about it might lead you to think it's just another disposable low budget film from the time, but it's pretty clear there's some actual intent behind the movie.

Today on the 5: I've been hearing and reading good things about Twilight Of The Warriors: Walled In for a while now, so I was thrilled to see it hit VOD. I rented it for an absurdly good price, watched it, and now I'm ready to add my review to the others already gushing about it!
