  • Episode 181: The Suicide Squad + Guardians of the Galaxy Vols. 1 & 2

    For Henry's last episode before he heads off to Air Force basic training, we make a new impression with James Gunn's The Suicide Squad and get hooked on a feeling for Guardians of the Galaxy Vols. 1 & 2 plus we also talk Doctor Strange, The Bourne Ultimatum, Suicide Squad Extended Cut, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The Trip, The Trip to Italy, and Robin Hood (2010).

    UPDATE: As of August 17th, Henry has shipped out for USAF basic training, so he will be taking a short hiatus from the show until around mid-October. Don't worry, because Paul will be taking over hosting duties until then. Contact him @ [email protected]!
