Popcorn for Dinner

"How good a knight are you?"... Guess we'll find out.

Ebube brings Bankole in to join the the guys for an incredibly fun roundtable and a lesson in the laws of gods and men, but frankly the real question here is how cooked Dunk truly is.

Once Bankole recaps his own perspective on the show with a carefully curated list of "jokes", the guys deliberate on a wide range of topics, including but not limited to Baelor being the greatest Targaryen ever put to screen, Aerion being the kind of demon that's actually worth fearing, and Maekar living out all the stresses of fatherhood all at once.

They also touch on the newest Targaryens revealed to us, discussing what Daeron brings to the table and what might be next for the baldest prince in history, all while trying to figure out what could possibly go right in a Trial of Seven.

What even is that??!!!!

You mess with the Egg, you get fried!

Ebube, Soonen and some guy yelling about Egg with a bag over his head are reeling from the wonderful revelation at the end of episode three. Turns out our little bald friend is more than meets the eye

They talk about what Egg’s relationships could mean for the story, as well as how the smallfolk’s view of the royal family might be keeping the Targaryens on edge. They also talk about the offer Dunk has to consider, as well as what he's now up against given his chivalry at the end of the episode.

Aerion might be a serious problem, people.

Oh, so your past actions have finally caught up with you? Well, you can't say you don't deserve it. However, you definitely don't deserve a night out with Rishi. Clean up your act, go home, take care of your son and self-publish your article. Remember, if you believe it, they'll believe it. Lean in.

Bankole & Eyo are back, dragging themselves off the road to discuss this week's episode of 'Industry'. They comb through the episode's plot beats, including Henry finding a new puppeteer, Whit's growing influence & the Yasmin/Haley mind games. Later, William Goodman joins them to discuss Rishi's continued descent into the stages of hell and who he brings along this week.

Gotta be careful whose house you stay in.

Ebube and AJ flew Ore in for a debrief on how the lack of boundaries in the Mucks’ marriage is likely to destroy every other boundary in the show before the season is over.

They touch on Yasmin’s misguided sense of authority and her tendency to default to seduction when she feels cornered, Henry’s newfound self-advocacy, and Harper’s inability to be compatible with peace.

It’s a wild one, and somehow Kwabena still managed to miss the first fifteen minutes.

It is a mega-pod but an emotional one as Jibbz & Ayisha are joined by special guest, Denisa, to discuss generational & familial trauma in 'Sentimental Value' (05:36), followed by a breakdown of what they did not love about 'Hamnet' (43:30). Later, Ebuka swings by for a quick reaction to the Academy Award nominations, including the record-breaking slate for 'Sinners' (1:21:34).

Welcome to Arlan's Anatomy, a show completely different from the one we signed up for, yet just as jaw dropping.

After recovering from the episode's BOLD opening scene, Ebube, Afam and Soonen take a moment to acknowledge the firmly established rhythm of HBO's 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms', and discuss how quickly — and effectively — the show is expanding its world.

They share their thoughts on this era's crop of Targaryen overlords, what makes a great ruler, and why Dunk only has a chance at the lists, and with a certain tall lady, if he actually shoots his shot.

Also, Afam also tries to convince the guys that Egg is secretly evil.

Attention all, it’s time for our annual C-Suite field trip. This year, the options range from our very own Sunderland (home of the mighty Black Cats) to an Austrian Castle whose owners may or may not have funded The Reich. Please be civil to our hosts and remember to lodge all inter-personal relationships with HR.

Bankole & Eyo are back for this week’s ’Industry’ episode. As they split their time between SternTao and Tender, they try to understand Harper & Yasmin’s motivations, why the Prime Minister gets involved, and whether burping is a symptom of pregnancy; all normal questions.

Their name is Tender, and they come burdened with glorious purpose.

After an incredible exploration of Sir Henry Muck's rebirth, Ebube and AJ tap Osehgale to figure out how purpose differs from function in 'Industry' Season 4, and what this distinction will mean for each character in episode 3 and beyond. They also note the show's likely return to money matters.

They reflect on how Henry's near implosion affected Yasmin, how Yasmin will find relevance and respect as the season progresses, if at all, and what Harper's major conflicts will be in episode 3, as well as what role Eric will play in the ensuing expansion of the story, given his unique perspective among the main cast. While they're at it, one tenacious member of the group tries to convince the others that Rose could have saved Jack after the Titanic went down.

They of course also take some time to dissect Hayley's role in the story, and try to figure out what kind of chaos — or disaster — awaits her and everyone she becomes entangled with. Why be a moon, revolving around one planet, when you can be a comet and crash into three?

Minor PLURIBUS Spoilers from 8:50 - 13:20

Bankole is trying to figure out if Emmanuel & Pete were monsters back when he first met them, as they continue to discuss ‘Fallout’ Season 2. They first of all cover this episode’s similarities to this year’s other sci-fi show, 'Pluribus', before heading back to the flashbacks to unpack Barb’s role in all of this.
