Another week. Another movie. Another rant. Another bottle of wine. And somehow… Dick Buttons still has more to say.

Season 6 rolls into Episode 16 with Dick doing a little overdue house cleaning — revisiting his summer adventures in Miami and Wildwood, New Jersey, and unloading a few observations that somehow escaped the original recaps. Apparently, vacation may end…but the material NEVER does.

Then it’s time for another DICK’S MOVIE REVIEW! This week Dick takes on the brain-bending 2014 sci-fi thriller PREDESTINATION. Time travel. Twists. Identity crises. Enough plot turns to require a GPS. Did Dick think it was brilliant…or did the movie disappear up its own time-traveling backside? Click play and find out!

And then… MOVE!!!

Dick has had enough of people wandering around like they have absolutely nowhere to be. The slow walkers. The aisle blockers. The people who suddenly stop in the middle of everything. PICK A DIRECTION AND GO! Dick unleashes another full-blown rant about the human roadblocks standing between him and wherever the hell he’s trying to get.

But eventually the madness gives way to THE VINCENZONE!

The wine gets opened, Dick and Vincenzo settle in, and for once…THE BOYS ACTUALLY HAVE A PLAN! They’re counting down their TOP 5 DIRECTORS OF ALL TIME! Legends. Controversial picks. Guaranteed disagreements. Did your favorite director make the cut? Or will you be screaming at your screen?

And because apparently wine and arguments aren’t enough, the newest fan favorite WHAT’S IN THE BAG? returns! What mystery snack did Vincenzo bring this week? Sweet? Salty? Delicious? Questionable? There’s only one way to find out.

Vacation leftovers. Predestination confusion. Human speed bumps. Movie legends. Mystery snacks. Wine.

It’s Season 6, Episode 16 of THE WORLD ACCORDING TO DICK BUTTONS — more entertainment than should legally be allowed in one podcast.

CLICK PLAY. GET OUT OF THE WAY. AND ENTER THE VINCENZONE!

What happens when a woman discovers the man she planned to build a life with may already be building another one... with somebody else?

And what happens when she decides she’s NOT going to simply walk away?

On September 9th at 1PM EST, Dick Buttons sits down one-on-one with author MICHELLE ROBBINS, creator of the suspense thriller THREE WOMEN, ONE ALIBI — a story inspired by true events involving betrayal, deception, friendship, resilience... and three women who begin pulling at the threads of one man’s carefully constructed life.

But Michelle’s OWN story may be just as fascinating.

Before becoming a novelist, Michelle traveled a career path that included work as a researcher, professor, real estate agent, court interpreter and even an FBI contract linguist — experiences that exposed her to countless real-life stories of people dealing with love, deception, survival and reinvention.

So you KNOW Dick has questions.

🔥 How much of THREE WOMEN, ONE ALIBI really happened?

🔥 Where does fact stop... and fiction begin?

🔥 How do you take real-life betrayal and turn it into a suspense novel?

🔥 What did Michelle learn from years of listening to other people's stories?

🔥 Why did she decide NOW was the time to become a novelist?

🔥 And what happens when Dick Buttons starts digging into the person BEHIND the book?

This isn't just going to be a conversation about writing.

It's about second acts.

It's about deception.

It's about finding the courage to reinvent yourself.

And it's about what can happen when you discover the life you thought was real... may have been built on a lie.

Loud music EVERYWHERE.

Automatic 20% gratuity slapped onto bar and restaurant bills.

Absolutely.

OH… HE HAS NOTES.

After Dick finishes unloading on Miami, he closes out his segment with some important Podcast Housekeeping, updates, and a look at what’s happening around The World According to Dick Buttons.

And THEN…

🍹 THE VINCENZONE!!!

But this week, something is very different.

NO WINE.

That’s right.

Vincenzo and Dick have traded in the vino for…

🥃 TEQUILA!!! 🥃

Just imagine what happens when the tequila starts flowing.

And just when you thought the episode couldn’t get any more dangerous…

🎬🔥 SPLIT SCREEN IS BACK!!! 🔥🎬

Two different mindsets.
Two different ideologies.
Two VERY different ways of looking at movies.

Dick Buttons and Professor Jacket Music are together again for another episode of SPLIT SCREEN, only on The World According to Dick Buttons Podcast!

Usually, the guys may find themselves reviewing the same movie from completely different perspectives…

BUT NOT THIS TIME.

This time, they picked movies FOR EACH OTHER — and neither one gets to run from the assignment!

🎥 Professor Jacket Music chose 2011’s Detention for Dick Buttons.

🔫 Dick Buttons fired back by choosing Martin Scorsese’s 1990 classic Goodfellas for Professor Jacket Music.

Two movies that couldn’t be more different.

One is a completely bonkers, genre-smashing high-school horror/comedy/time-travel fever dream.

The other is one of the most celebrated gangster films ever made.

So… what happens when Dick Buttons steps into the insanity of Detention?

And what will Professor Jacket Music have to say after sitting down with Henry Hill, Jimmy Conway, Tommy DeVito and the world of Goodfellas?

Will somebody discover a new favorite?

Will somebody absolutely HATE what the other guy made him watch?

Will friendships be tested?

Will insults be thrown?

There’s only ONE way to find out…

👉 PRESS PLAY!!!

Then Dick trades the beach for the driving range as he recounts his latest adventure at Topgolf. Has all that previous instruction finally paid off? Has he retained even a shred of what he was taught? Or have his already-mediocre golf skills somehow gotten EVEN WORSE? There's only one way to find out.

Get ready for a conversation that goes far beyond the music!

Dick Buttons sits down with Singer/Songwriter Kat MacKenzie, an artist whose sound refuses to be stuffed into one neat little box. Blending elements of post-punk, baroque rock, dream pop, shoegaze, gothic folk and indie rock, Kat creates music that's atmospheric, emotional, gritty and unapologetically her own.

🎸 BUT WHERE DOES THAT SOUND COME FROM?

Dick digs into Kat's story — from her childhood and earliest musical influences, to discovering her individuality through music and art, to finding the courage to put her own emotions, imagination and experiences into her songwriting.

They'll talk about the artists and genres that shaped her, her fascination with literature, poetry, mythology and folklore, the creative process behind her music, and how even darker and more complicated emotions can become something powerful when turned into art.

And, of course, they'll get into the MUSIC — including her debut EP Cocoon, songs like “How to Disappear,” “Wallflower,” “Stay,” “Opening,” and her post-punk rock single “Pacman Dreams.”

💥 THE MUSIC. THE INFLUENCES. THE STRUGGLES. THE EVOLUTION. THE PERSON BEHIND THE SONGS.

No canned questions. No five-minute fluff piece. Just an artist, her story, and the kind of conversation you've come to expect from THE DICK BUTTONS INTERVIEWS!

🎙️ DICK BUTTONS sits down with KAT MACKENZIE!

THE WHEEL IS BACK, BABY!!!

As the Summer of 2026 starts winding down, Dick decided it was time to reach into the show’s history and resurrect one of its most beloved—and potentially dangerous—segments...🎰

🔥 RANT ROULETTE HAS RETURNED!!! 🔥🎰

The wheel is loaded. The topics are waiting. And YOU, the listeners, get to decide what Dick has to rant about! Where the wheel stops, nobody knows...but wherever it lands, you can be damn sure Dick will have something to say about it!

Then it’s time to dim the lights and head to Netflix for another DICK’S MOVIE REVIEW! 🎬🍿This week, Dick takes on “The Last House.” Is it a brilliant new horror movie worthy of your time? A terrifying hidden gem? Or is it just another steaming pile of generic horror slop tossed onto the streaming pile?Dick watched it so you don’t have to...unless it’s actually good.

And then...oh boy...🚨 GEN-Z IS BACK IN DICK’S CROSSHAIRS! 🚨Yes, there definitely seems to be a pattern developing here. 😂 Dick takes another look at the generation he sees as lackluster, unmotivated, permanently introverted, and somehow destined to inherit the Earth.

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?! Dick wants to know: What exactly is the future of civilization going to look like when GEN-Z takes the wheel? Expect opinions. Expect arguments. Expect someone listening to get pissed off.In other words...EXPECT DICK BUTTONS.🍷🔥

And finally, it wouldn’t be an episode without another trip into...THE VINCENZONE!!!

Dick and Vincenzo crack open yet another bottle of red wine, and once that cork comes out, absolutely anything can happen.Vacations! Current events! Life!

Random observations! Complete nonsense! And whatever other topics are magically conjured up by the wine!And YES...🤓🚨 NERD ALERT!!! 🚨🤓Because apparently these two are physically incapable of getting through a bottle of wine without nerding out about something.

It’s honest. It’s unfiltered. It’s unpredictable. And most importantly...IT’S FUN!

So pour yourself a drink, spin the wheel, prepare to be offended and BUCKLE UP!
