The Complete Guide to Everything

Everybody's favorite half-boy/half-spider is back in theaters and we're talkin' about him! And not just the new movie, either (no spoilers until the end, with fair warning). We're also talking about the Spiderverse, and the 6000 other Spider-Man movies that came out in the last 20 years too. And of course, what discussion of Spider-Man would be complete without a lot of mentions of the seminal, character-defining Broadway musical, Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark?

This week we’re talking about the newest most magical place on Earth, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. What could be so exciting that two grown childless men who don’t even particularly like Star Wars are considering spending their life savings just to go? Listen in and find out. Also for some reason we talk about religion a lot.

Like the famous song says, "Take me out to the ballpark" and this week that's exactly what we're doing: we're taking you, the listener to the ballpark. Don't worry if you don't like sports, a day at the ballpark is about much more than watching some silly game. For example, sometimes you get a bobblehead doll and you can usually buy a large helmet full of nachos for slightly less than $20. We also solve a problem from a woman who thinks her interns need a wakeup call.

I scream, you scream, we all scream for iced… coffee?!?! It turns out that cream isn’t the only cool treat on a nice summer day, you can also ice a coffee. That’s right, you might know coffee as a hot drink but it can also be cold. This week we talk about iced coffee and it’s various new fangled incarnations such as cold brew, nitro brew, etc. You get the idea.

You’re the one who won’t still be standing when you listen to this week’s episode all about Sir Elton Hercules John. We haven’t seen the new movie about him but we didn’t need to because we already knew a bunch of stuff about him. Also we should probably warn you that a good chunk of this episode is about his bitter arch-rivalry with Elton John’s sworn frenemy Billy Joel.

We’re in the Endgame now, Avengers: Endgame that is! If you’re looking to save yourself $15 seeing it, why not opt in for the next best thing: listening to Tom explain the movie to Tim, a man who has no interest in hearing about it. (We issue a warning once we get into spoiler territory, if you’re concerned about having the movie spoiled for you but also like to wait weeks and weeks before you go see it.)
