Stanko's Stance

How good is Adam Sandler in"Uncut Gems"? Unbelievably good. My movie theater experience...well let's say not the most desirable. But the movie "Uncut Gems" itself is worth the price of admission twice over.

Mike Phillips ("Just End The Suffering" Podcast) and I talk about our most disappointing and worse movies of the 2010s. We are also joined by Garrett Murray with a celeb appearance.

Mike Phillips granted me the chance to hop on a special year-ending bonus episode of the "Just End The Suffering" podcast, alongside the podcast’s pop culture correspondent, Sam DeRosa!  We touched on all things spanning from Game of Thrones, the Super Bowl Halftime show, Avengers: Endgame, Disney+, and much more!

Special shout out to Mike Phillips for having me on his podcast to…discus…and vent…about Star Wars: Episode XIV – The Rise Of Skywalker!

On a special episode of the Just End The Suffering Podcast, Host Mike Phillips dives deep into the world of Star Wars. Mike starts off chatting with Pete Consadori to reset where we found ourselves after Episode 8 (1:46) and look ahead to the Rise of Skywalker. Full SPOILERS come at 42:13, where Jon Stanko stops by to recap the movie and look ahead to the future of the franchise (1:31:20) in an epic episode.

Let's just say...I had a reaction.  Begins with my instant reaction to Star Wars: Episode XIV - The Rise of Skywalker. The rant goes on for 10:10, followed by eight minutes of what my feelings were going into the movie. Little bit of after and before.  Again, spoilers and NSFW warning. I had takes.

Made a guest appearance on Mike Phillips' "Just End The Suffering" Podcast to talk Watchmen!

My instant reaction to seeing Rian Johnson's fantastic who-dun-it "Knives Out" (Spoilers)

I'll admit to being the guy who read the book first, but here are my takes on "The Shining" sequel, and "Doctor Sleep".

Very simple here. If you like Rambo, you'll like this latest installment.

My coworkers and friends Jack Clark and Steve Kultzow joined me for a snake draft comprising of our top five Iona Athletic moments this season. It could be a game, a moment, a memory, and event; everything was on the table. Listen and let us know if we missed any!
