It’s that time of the year, where once again, WWE takes over a city, and a week-long pro wrestling mecca is formed.

This time, WrestleMania Goes Hollywood, as WWE invades Los Angeles!

WrestleMania 39 seems to be set for an amazing post-pandemic / post-VKM comeback for WWE. Sure, not every match on the show seems like it will be a banger. But one thing is for sure – The Bloodline stories are set to dominate the weekend. As the main event, we have quintessential sports entertainer Cody Rhodes, making his big push for the big title against the Head of the Table, Roman Reigns. Some were skeptical after the Royal Rumble wins, but the booking and promos in recent months have cemented this feud as one for the history books. Will Cody do it?

The other big match intertwined in this story is The Usos defending their tag team championships against Kevin Owens and former Honorary Uce, Sami Zayn. Will KO and SZ’s friendship prove to be the stronger force, or is there something nefarious looming, as has been known to happen to those two over the years?

Join us on this episode as we break down those matches, and the rest of the card, as well as recap the night we had at the final RAW before Mania in Phoenix, Arizona!

That’s right, we have returned! Okay, it’s not from the Quantum Realm, but UNT is back to review Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania (brother).

If you were wondering what S.U.P.E.R.J.E.W. stood for, why Cassie looks different or just how many holes we have, look no further as we dive ooze-first into our latest podcast, where we discuss the latest installment of the MCU.

Was this movie as disappointing as the critics say? Or is it building to something with a rarely-seen nuance and subtlety not often present in the MCU? Will Kevin finally stop calling Bill Murray, and is Michelle Pfeiffer still white gold?

To find out, kick back and exile yourself with us and the Dynasty of UNTs (no we didn’t leave out a letter).

The 2023 Royal Rumble is this Saturday… Join us as we preview the card!

No matter the state of things in the world and WWE, the Rumble always delivers a fun time. Who do you have walking away with the WrestleMania title shot? Cody Rhodes? Jey Uso? The Rock? And on the women’s side, can anyone stop Rhea Ripley? And what sort of fun surprises are in store? Take some notes, make some prop bets, and crack a few beers this Saturday as it all goes down live on the ‘cock.

On a more somber note, the wrestling world recently lost a prominent figure when Jay Briscoe suddenly passed away in a car accident last week. We do our part to remember him, just as AEW did this week on Dynamite. RIP, Jamin Pugh.

Just in time for the Holiday Season, we caught up with two recent additions to the Marvel Cinematic Universe - Black Panther: Wakanda Forever & The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special!

How did Marvel handle the untimely passing of Chadwick Boseman? Pretty respectfully, we thought, but did the mantle of Black Panther end up with the right person?

Also, what exactly is the GOTG Holiday Special meant to be?

Well, you'll just have to listen to find out!

Get ready to smash through courtrooms and the fourth wall with our review of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law.

How does a single woman navigate life in the MCU as a courtroom lawyer, while dealing with her new Hulk powers? These are the questions raised by the latest Marvel show, that dared to be a little too comic book accurate for some folks. But also...

Is it as bad as they say it is? Has it “ruined” the MCU? How much fourth wall breaking is too much? And which cameo was your favorite?

Find out the answers to these (and many more) questions as we embark on our own mustard-and-ketchup walk of shame to review ­She-Hulk: Attorney at Law.

NOTE: No costumed frogmen were hurt in the making of this podcast.

Who the hell starts a press conference like that, anyway?

YOU know what we're talking about.

Man, a LOT has gone down since the last time we put out an episode. From the ousting of the old regime at WWE to AEW burning maybe a little too hot as of late. It really is a good time to be a wrestling fan, whether or not you're fully plugged into the behind-the-scenes nonsense that's been going on.

We break down the mess that is CM Punk, Tony Khan's mixed bag of leadership, THE face of AEW (it's Mox), and the mega-return of mega-heel MJF. And so so much more.

Bust out the muffins, y'all. It's podcasting time!

A spin-off, a prequel, a sequel… only the very best with just the right amount of dirty. You know what to do… Better Call Saul!

With Better Call Saul now joining Breaking Bad by sailing off into the television sunset, we decided to pop a cork on a bottle of Zafiro and reminisce over one of the greatest shows to ever be on TV.

How does it compare to Breaking Bad? How does it connect to Breaking Bad? Are there any questions about this show NOT related to Breaking Bad? Well, slip on your finest bright-colored suit and join us in the desert (or under the lab) for UNT 143.

It’s a Predator movie, but not as you know it. That’s right, get your camouflage ready because we watched Prey.

How do you reinvent the Predator franchise while still paying tribute to all that’s come before? Well, they found a way. From the epic landscapes to the simplistic-yet-effective storytelling, hear what we had to say about this film and why it was a pleasant surprise in a world full of terrible reboots / sequels.

So check out episode 142 of UNT and as always… Get to the Choppa!

It's back! And you can bet your last jar of peanut butter that we're going to review it! Stranger Things returned with its fourth entry, so get ready to return to the Upside Down with your favorite nerds...

What happens when you cross a Russian prison story with Carrie and A Nightmare on Elm Street, not to mention D&D, thrash metal and that subplot with Will? That's right, you get Season 4 of the hit Netflix show Stranger Things! And we here at UNT were destined to review it, in this reality or the next.

So roll the dice, run up that hill and master your puppets, then check out episode 141 before the grandfather clock chimes for you!

P.S. No bones were horrifically broken in the recording of this podcast.

Hey, bro… are you ready for another trip to Asgard? Or what’s left of it, anyway? Then grab your 80s hair metal vest and listen up as we review Thor: Love and Thunder.

Once again we dive into the colorful and calamitous world of Taika Waititi and his wacky (or is that too wacky?) take on everyone’s favorite god of capentry… sorry, Thunder, with a new fourth entry into the Thor franchise.

Natalie Portman returns, as does a host of fan-fav characters, whether it’s Thor, or Gorr, or Korg… note to Marvel: some non-rhyming names might be in order next time.

But either way, we stole the lightning bolt and rode the goats to Valhalla on this one, so don’t flick too hard, just check out UNT 140!
