The Incomparable Superfeed

Plummeting frogs, chaff owls, and seducin’ medusas - oh my! The party fights and reunites as their path through pixelated perdition continues!

Candlekeep - The Curious Tale of Wisteria Vale, Part 4

Tony Sindelar with Aleen Simms, James Thomson, Mikah Sargent, Monty Ashley and Tiff Arment

Edited by Warren Frey.

Ever wonder what happened to The Oneders? We celebrate Hanksgiving by discussing Tom Hanks’s love letter to ’60s pop that’s also a clear-eyed look at the machinery of the entertainment business, “That Thing You Do!” Powered by a legitimately classic pop song, a stunning cast (turns out, Tom Hanks knows some people), and scenes of joy, warmth, and kindness, this is a film that we find ourselves revisiting often. Happy Hanksgiving to all! And make it snappy!

"That Thing You Do!"

Jason Snell with Erika Ensign, Lex Friedman, Brian Warren, Kathy Campbell and Dan Moren

A pitched battle with forest-dwelling medusas, a rock gnome smitten with said medusas, and giant angry birds harassing our heroes as they plummet to certain death are mere morsels of excitement in this installment of our adventurers’ saga inside a painting inside a book inside a house? Confusing? Yes!

Steven and Erika conclude a very good, but very dark story.

Erika and Steven talk about Davros, mostly. With good reason!

Steven and Erika talk about Nazis. I mean Daleks. No, I mean Nazis. But yeah, also Daleks.

We’ve recently lost the iconic Diane Keaton, and the Agency wanted to do a special mission to honour her work. We chose The First Wives Club with Goldie Hawn, Bette Midler and some amazing power suits. Join us for a celebration of women, friendship, and a good dance scene.

The First Wives Club

Annette Wierstra with Heather Berberet, Shelly Brisbin and Micheline Maynard

Billy Wilder tells the story of a man’s (Ray Milland) alcoholic weekend, and the lies he tells to family and friends about his drinking. Surprisingly gritty and emotional for the era, and photography that heightens the mood. Also, Jane Wyman, Philip Terry, and Frank Faylen again.

The Lost Weekend

Shelly Brisbin with Nathan Alderman and Micheline Maynard
