Late Nights at Blockbuster

Join us as we celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Liar Liar. We discuss whether we need to rename our overacting award and Byers even sings a few bars of Jars of Clay.

Corner Booth at Rex's

We watched the Eternals and we have one word for you…Gnosticism! It’s morphin’ time! Need sleep? COVID insomnia? Watch Eternals! We go through some of the worst movies that we’ve ever seen for a little too long. Sorry for the rambling and sometimes incoherent thoughts, it was because of the movie being the same. We promise. You can almost pinpoint the spot where Byers has lost unwavering faith in the MCU.

0:55 – Spoiler free until the 37:00 mark.

Goofs: Breckin Meyer is the actor from Franklin and Bash that he couldn’t remember. Troy continues to bring up Dune unnecessarily. Troy thinks it will be the shortest MCU podcast that we do. It was not…

Deep Thoughts on Shallow Subjects

Top 10 Athletes Without a Championship

With the Super Bowl this weekend we wanted to spend a little time with those who never one the big game, so we are counting down the top 10 athletes who never won a title.

Goofs: We ended up using some different methodology to compile our lists, but it makes for some very different lists, especially for us, so it turned out great in the end, and gave Troy an opportunity to make fun of Byers being a history nerd.

Deep Thoughts on Shallow Subjects

Top 5 Jeremy Renner

After last week’s discussion of Hawkeye, it seemed only fitting to dig into the top roles of Jeremy Renner’s career thus far.

Goofs: We have already been corrected on the difference between burning a CD and ripping a CD, but honestly – it’s 2022 who does that anyway…I mean besides Troy apparently.

Join as we dive into the newest addition to the MCU, the Disney+ series Hawkeye, starring Jeremy Renner and Hailee Steinfeld.

We had an impromptu Corner Booth at Rex's immediately after watching Spider-Man: No Way Home. Byers watched the movie opening day early afternoon and Troy watched that night and decided to record right away without any notes. Forgive some of the meandering thoughts that went out of order.

Spoiler free thoughts until minute 24.

We went through our pre-season predictions to see how we fared against the final standings. We talk about our biggest hits and biggest misses. We then run through our predictions for the playoffs. Hopefully it goes a little better than our MLB predictions. Note: Joe Judge was fired the day after we recorded. 

Pre-season Predictions (0:00-33:25)

Awards Predictions (33:26-40:34)

Playoff Predictions (40:35-71:31)

Goofs: Micah Parsons lined up 50/50 Defensive End/Linebacker but Troy's point still stands.

Our newest Corner Booth at Rex's to start the year is the sci-fi epic Dune. Because Byers didn't refer to anyone by the character name, Troy decided that they should quiz each other about the names on the spot.

Spoiler free talk until the 41 minute mark.

Goofs:  Troy forgot that in the Shang-Chi podcast that the score of 8.5 is "Byers goes to Tucanos" because of the story that Byers re-told here.

Our last tiers update before the season ends. Plenty of movement amongst the top part of the tiers but less so at the bottom.
