We don't have a real theme this week, so we talk just about a whole heckuva bunch of things! From the GoT finale, to what we’ve been rewatching, to recent movies we’ve seen it’s the jazziest episode we’ve ever done! Take a listen!

That’s right, we’re all about John Wick and his latest exploit, JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 3 - PARABELLUM.

May the Fourth Be With You, listeners! This week, two of your three favorite millennials are here - with a guest! - to finally discuss Star Wars, something we’ve *never* talked about (wink wink).

Your three favorite millennials assemble to talk about the latest motion picture from a little studio called Disney. WE’RE IN THE ENDGAME NOW!

Your three favorite millennials are joined by two special guests to discuss the final season of Game of Thrones. “But i thought you guys didn’t watch it anymore?” you may be asking, and you’re correct. It’s the final season, one of the last television monocultural series to still be airing so we thought we’d bring on two people who still do to and have a roundtable discussion about GoT’s issues, why we loved the show in the first place, and why even though we’re not watching, we’re rooting for the Starks from afar.

Two of your three favorite millennials are here to react to and discuss the STAR WARS EPISODE IX trailer.
