In our season 2 finale episode, we each picked a movie that the other two hosts hadn't seen yet. Jake picked Safety Not Guaranteed, Payton picked City of Ember, and Wes picked Beginners. During our off-season break, we watched all three of these movies together and now we're going to give you our thoughts on them. It was a blast!

For our Season 3 premiere we wanted to talk a bit about the movies, tv shows, and series we watched last year that weren't mentioned on our podcast yet. We give a little review and thoughts on them as we go. Enjoy, and welcome to Season 3!

In our final episode of our The Office series, we talk about s9 and how we think it wrapped up the show as a whole. Its story arcs helped guide us to where the characters needed to go, and we also discussed whether we think they incorporated the real-world documentary elements well. 

to discuss the show overall, we answer questions such as: how has The Office shaped your sense of humor? What does the office get right that so many shows that try to mimic its style get wrong? What is the best Jim & Dwight prank? What’s the 1 thing that makes the office different to you? Who is the most well developed character? Who is the best minor character? and more!

In this episode of our ongoing The Office series, we talk about season 8 and all of its story arcs and plot points! We talk about, Robert California's character and dynamic, Andy as manager, Angela's marriage to the (state) senator, Pam's 2nd child (peepa), and the Florida team. We also have a section called THE CASE FOR ROBERT CALIFORNIA because his character gets a lot of flack and we're not sure why. 

Season 8 proves to be a very big turning point for a lot of characters as well. We chat about Andy turning into a motivated manager, Dwight getting humbled and learning how to lead people, and Jim finding a drive and desire that ISN'T just Pam for the first time.

In this episode we are reviewing another Stonemaier board game! Jake has been a huge Red Rising fan for years, and Stonemaier is one of his favorite designers, so we're really excited for this one! 

We talk about the novel, and how it is incorporated into the game, our favorite aspects of the gameplay, and a few criticisms as well. Check it out, and thanks for listening!

We’ve wanted to talk about movie theater subscriptions for awhile and we’re excited!
