The Sub-Beacon Podcast

This week the guys discuss tires. A throwback bit! Box office chatter. And a half hour on the fifth-highest-grossing movie of last week, The Last Duel. Does Ben Affleck give the performance of the year? Did the marketing team do this movie any favors? All that and more on this week's episode.

JVL buys a car. Vic starts a podcast. Sonny goes to REI. And the gang talks No Time to Die and Daniel Craig's run of films as Bond. Oddly, this is the first Bond movie to come out during the Substandard/Sub-Beacon's run, so there's lots to discuss.

This week, JVL is a septic skeptic. Vic can relate to Nicolas Cage. And the guys discuss LuLaRich. Is it a pyramid scheme? Or something better?

The guys talk about their student council memories. Gout watch! Garage door follies. And the gang broaches a sensitive subject about Clint Eastwood's age. All that and so much more on this week's episode!

This week: the return of Gout Watch! JVL talks about talking to people. Sonny talks about Norm Macdonald. Vic and Sonny talk about Malignant (currently on HBO Max and in theaters) while JVL makes the case for The Mysterious Benedict Society (streaming on Disney+) since he doesn't do horror.

On this week's episode, Sonny struggles to hold it together. JVL's kid learns the truth about baseball. Vic does some composting! And the gang talks about the new MCU flick Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Lots to discuss!

This week Sonny's getting upset! A big poop. Adventures in class with Vic. And an in-depth discussion of the truly terrible new documentary on Netflix about Bob Ross. Why does this exist? What does it say about us that we've made it a hit? And a Val Kilmer draft results update!

On this week's episode Sonny fixes something. Vic puts something in his mouth. The guys review Reminiscence (in theaters and on HBO Max). And Sonny and JVL took their kids to see Paw Patrol (which is also streaming on Paramount Plus). How are the pups of Adventure Bay saving movie theaters?

On this week's episode, Vic has a recycling problem. And a water problem. And a storefront problem. Lotta worries on Vic's mind. And the gang discusses the new documentary Val on Amazon Prime, a poignant look at the actor's career that uses footage he himself shot for decades as the backbone of the story.
