    5. Episode 36: House of the Dragon

      The boys are back in Westeros, folks, and so are we. We're here to talk about the series premiere of House of the Dragon, "The Heirs of the Dragon".

      For this minisode, we share our initial reactions to the series, where we think it's headed, and whether this pilot manages to stand apart from the larger Game of Thrones legacy. 

      Editors note:

      There have been some changes to our audio setup that we're still figuring out, so we apologize for the sub-par audio on this one.

    6. Episode 35: Nope and the Jordan Peele Canon

      Folks, it's Jordan Peele season. To honor America's premiere event filmmaker, we use his latest, Nope, as a springboard to discuss and celebrate his entire filmography. Kudos to Jessy(a known scaredy-cat) for stepping so far outside her zone for this one.

    7. Episode 34: The Bear

      Folks, after Toxie madness we needed a chill one. Join us for a cozy little discussion about 2022's most stressful new show, The Bear. 

      We had no shortage of new shows from this year to choose from, but nothing jumped out to us quite like this one. The Bear tells an intimate story about an extremely particular time, place and people, and it does it well. This feels like a special one, and we hope you give it a shot.

    8. Very Special Episode 33: The Toxic Avenger
      The time has finally come! Our beautiful angel Sean McKendry makes his long-teased, long-awaited debut on Showstoppers. The designer of our extremely sick show art is here to discuss one of his all-time favorites, The Toxic Avenger.
      This was a first time watch for Jessy and I, and a one billionth-time-watch for Sean, so we just sat back and let the magic happen. 
      Keen-eared listeners might also notice some tiny little audio issues here and there. If you think YOU spotted the edit points hidden throughout the episode, good work gumshoe! You're one of a very select few, and your ticket to the Showstoppers Detective Academy awaits!
      Ed. note- Sean isn't just the world's leading authority on all things Toxie, he's also an incredibly talented artist taking commissions! You can see his work here-
