Brett Nemeroff returns to help us stop some crimes of the future. It's the final episode of our Tom v Tom series. Steven Spielberg's MINORITY REPORT, released in 2002 and starring Tom Cruise as John Anderton, a pre-crime cop in Washington D.C. 2054. Based on a Phillip K. Dick novella, the film is a prescient vision of the future, and remains one of the strongest entries of both Spielberg and Cruise's 21st century filmographies.

Merry Christmas! It's the final Hanks entry of our Tom v Tom series, and we're going in style with Steven Spielberg’s Catch Me If You Can, starring Leonardo DiCaprio as the real-life check fraud con artist Frank Abagnale Jr. and Hanks as the FBI agent chasing him down.

It's the final stretch of our Tom v Tom Series with a review of Vanilla Sky, Tom Cruise's reunion with Jerry Maguire director Cameron Crowe. Cruise plays David Aames, wealthy playboy whose face is horribly disfigured in an accident. The film, released in Christmas of 2001, is weird, surreal, and dreamlike, but is it good? We're joined by first-time guest Drew Biggs to discuss.

Danny Seoane returns to host another round of pop culture trivia madness, two years after his first unforgettable go as Alex Trebek's successor.

This time, the stakes are higher, with brand-new categories like Letterboxd, TV Slop, Plot Twists, Girl Pop, Music Videos, Breakout Albums, One Hit Wonders, and special bonus round built to see which WBAM host knows their respective significant other the best under pressure.

Who will reign supreme, and who will crumble? Tune in for a JeoPoddy trivia showdown!

We crash land somewhere in the South Pacific with our volleyball friend Danny Seoane to discuss the classic Tom Hanks film, CAST AWAY, directed by Robert Zemeckis, and released in December 2000. Hanks delivers one of his most iconic performances, earning him an Oscar nomination.

We discuss the real-life challenges of production—from Hanks nearly dying on set to gaining and losing 50 pounds for the role—and explore the lasting impact of Wilson.

Did Cast Away influence Survivor’s popularity? How did it impact FedEx's global brand recognition? Does it feature one of cinema's greatest plane crash scenes? Would anyone but Hanks could carry this movie—and would we want to see them try?

NOTE: our main audio failed around the 12:45 mark for about 3 minutes, and then is restored.

It’s that time of year again. We’re talking all the big fall and holiday 2024 releases—Wicked, The Brutalist, Anora, and even Hot Frosty.
