On Episode 377 of Jay Movie Talk, I'm celebrating Halloween with a special watch-along commentary for John Carpenter's Halloween (1978). Join me as we return to Haddonfield for the night Michael Myers came home, revisiting the Carpenter's horror classic and all the moments that made this one of the greatest horror films of all time. Grab your copy of Halloween, press play, and experience this classic alongside me

Episode 9 of Every Ring All at Once is a Halloween mix of wrestling insanity, acting debates, cult horror, and NFL Chaos

I revisit Hulk Hogan vs. The Giant Halloween Havoc 1995, from the infamous monster truck duel on top of Cobo Hall to The Giant falling off the roof, returning later that night, and challenging Hogan for the WCW World Title.

Then it's Leonardo DiCaprio vs Christian Bale. Who is the better actor, who has the stronger filmography, and which of their most iconic roles could they realistically swap?

I also make the case for Trick 'r Treat as one of the most underappreciated Halloween movies ever and why it desereves to be part of the yearly holiday rotation.

Thenit's time for the NFL Week 7 recap, including Seattle shutting down Kansas City, Atlanta handing San Francisco its first loss, Cincinnati's second half explosion against Baltimore, and the teams I'm buying or starting to worry about.

Finally, Saints Corner after New Orleans falls to Pittsburgh in Paris. Tyler Shough continues to show signs of growth, but the running game completely disappears as the Saints head into the Bye 2-5.

Who are you taking: DiCaprio or Bale? And wherre does Trick 'r Treat rank among your favorite Halloween movies?

Episode 8 of Every Ring All At Once is about the moments when sports and entertainment stop being just entertainment.

I start with horror’s continued rise into the mainstream and why the genre is no longer something Hollywood can treat like a niche audience.

Then I get into the report that Jay-Z could headline the Super Bowl halftime show and why my issue isn’t whether he deserves the stage, but whether someone with major influence over the selection process should be able to select himself. Is the halftime show still about what fans want, or has it become more about the NFL’s business relationships?

From there, I revisit the infamous Brian Pillman and Steve Austin gun segment and ask whether wrestling crossed the line in the name of realism, plus whether anything like that could possibly air today.

The biggest conversation of the episode is Jalen Hurts’ health scare and the questions it raises about player safety, medical protocols, the Eagles, the NFL, and a sports-media culture that still found ways to turn a serious medical situation into another debate about Hurts.

Then it’s time for the NFL Week 6 recap with the biggest statement wins, teams I’m buying, teams I’m worried about, and the stories that changed my opinion.

And finally, Saints Corner covers two very different weeks for New Orleans, from the offensive disaster against Minnesota to Tyler Shough and the Saints responding with a much-needed win over the Giants.

Episode 8: When the Show Goes Too Far

Which conversation stands out most to you: Jalen Hurts and player safety, Jay-Z and the Super Bowl, or whether wrestling has become too safe and predictable?

For Episode 376 of Jay Movie Talk, I'm revisiting the underrated 1992 sci-fi horror movie Split Second. I talk about the movie's futuristic setting, Stone and Durkin chemistry, and the blend of action, horror, and detective thriller elements, as well as the creature itself, and why this overlooked '90s cult film deserves more attention from fans

Episode 7 of Every Ring All At Once is about recognition, survival, and what actually lasts.

I start with Samuel L. Jackson and the unbelievable fact that he has only one competitive Oscar nomination. I look back at certain performances and make the case for the roles that deserved more award recognition.

Then it's October, so I have to talk about the horror movie final girls. What actually makes a great final girl, and who belongs to be mentioned amongst the best?

I also get into original series vs. original movies and why television and streaming series seem to have an advantage when it comes to getting audiences invested in new characters, new worlds, and original ideas.

Finally, it's time for the NFL Week 4 recap with the biggest statement wins, reality checks, teams I'm buying, teams I'm questioning, and another edition of Saints Corner after a rough loss to Atlanta.

Which Samuel L. Jackson performance deserved an Oscar nomination the most, and who is the greatest horror final girl of all time?

A seven-year-old Marvel movie just went back to theaters and beat three brand-new releases. So what does that say about the future of original movies?

On Episode 6 of Every Ring All At Once, Jay talks about the surprising box office return of Avengers: Endgame and asks whether audiences are losing interest in original films or simply becoming more selective about what deserves a trip to the theater.

Jay also looks back at Val Kilmer's incredible performances as Jim Morrison in The Doors and Doc Holliday in Tombstone and asks how he managed to deliver two unforgettable performances without ever receiving an Oscar nomination.

Then we get into The New York Times' 100 best TV Shows of the 21st century. Which shows are ranked too high, too low, or missing completely?

Plus, why do the MTV Video Music Awards still exist when the music video no longer dominates pop culture the way it once did?

And finally, it's time for the NFL Week 3 recap, including the biggest winners, biggest concerns, teams starting to believe in, and another edition of Saints Corner after New Orleans ' frustrating loss to Las Vegas.

Every Ring All At Once- Episode 6

What do you disagree with more: the NYT TV Rankings, Val Kilmer never receiving an Oscar Nomination, or audiences choosing Endgame over new movies?

Hal Jordan is dead, and John Stewart is hiding their final confrontation. Jay breaks down John's return to Rustville, the secrets complicating Hal's murder investigation, Guy Gardner's arrival, and an emotional farewell to a hero the town never forgave. But John's search for answers takes a dark turn when he digs up more than Hal's past.

Episode 5 of Every Ring All at Once is about who controls the narrative, who gets held accountable, and what happens when the conversation shifts.

I start with Ryan Clark's The Pivot and why the show feels like a breath of fresh air in sports media. Athlete-led conversations are changing the way players tell their stories, and The Pivot is one of the best examples of why that matters .

Then I get into the controversy surrounding Chris Brown receiving an award he didn't ask for and ask a bigger question: why do celebrities and entertainers sometimes seem to be held to different public standards than politicians?

Next, I break down the Paramount and Warner Bros. deal and what a merger of that size could mean for movies, television, streaming, franchises, and the future of original voices trying to break into Hollywood.

And finally, it's time for the NFL Week 2 recap with my biggest winners, losers, teams to watch, and another edition of Saints Corner after New Orleans' win over Baltimore.

Every Ring All At Once- Episode 5

Which Topic from this episode do you have the strongest opinion about?

Rustville becomes a war zone as Hal betrays John, deceives Antaan, and risks everything to capture Zoe. Jay breaks down William Macon's tragic fate. Hal and John's brutal fight, Zoe's final stand, and the devastating choice that gives John the ring he always wanted, only for him to realize it may not have been worth the cost

Episode 4 of Every Ring All at Once is all about unexpected conversations, iconic performances, NFL overreactions, and a horror game becoming a social media phenomenon

I start with Aaron Rodgers opening up about his exes on a podcast and ask whether telling your side of a past relationship is fair game or if some things should stay private.

Then it's time for a movie and hip-hop debate: who had the better acting debut, Tupac as Bishop in Juice or Ice Cube as Doughboy in Boyz n the Hood? Both performances became iconic, but for very different reasons.

Next, I break down NFL Week 1 with my biggest winners, losers, teams to watch, and what I took away from the New Orleans Saints' opening-week performance.

And finally, I talk about Halloween: The Game and how the gaming community has turned Michael Myers into one of the funniest and most unexpected viral stars on TikTok and social media.
