Caleb and Patrick reminisce about when they first met, how Patrick was responsible for getting Caleb obsessed with the X-Men and especially Gambit, video games they used to spend hours and hours playing at each others' houses, being fathers and trying to raise our kids to like comic books and "geek culture," Patrick's time living in Las Vegas and working at the Bellagio, we discuss the first episode (and some of the second) of Falcon & Winter Soldier, we discuss the Picard series, and after several weeks of zero to very few celebrity deaths this week brings a deluge of them down upon us all at once starting with 1980s boxer "Marvelous" Marvin Haggler; from one of our favorite Bond films Yaphet Koto; from Just Shoot Me and The Goldbergs George Segal; from two of our favorite tv shows Arrested Development and Archer Jessica Walter; The Last Picture Show, Terms of Endearment, and Lonesome Dove author Larry McMurtry; another great author, Beverly Cleary, of the Ramona Quimby series of books and The Mouse and the Motorcycle. This episode ran long, sorry/not sorry.

We finally manage to get back on track long enough to talk about Sacha Baron Cohen's acceptance speech at the Golden Globes, the latest episode of Resident Alien, we discuss our St. Patrick's Day plans, we talk about the Wandavision finale and how some people (who were really banking on the fan theories to come true) were a little disappointed, now that Wandavision is over we're immediately looking forward to the next big Marvel/Disney+ show Falcon & Winter Soldier, Caleb is not jazzed about the Godzilla vs. Kong movie, however, we are both looking forward to the Running Man remake, and we finish with dueling Al Pacino impressions.

(2/7/21) I'm sorry, the episode begins with me whistling in Jeremiah's ear. In this episode we discuss our disappointment with the results of the "Big Game." Also, super bowl commercials today and for most of the past decade are not like super bowl commercials from the '90s, but people still try to act like they are still up to the same level. We also talk about the Falcon & Winter Soldier trailer.
