Team - Get Up Sequences Part Two [3/3/23] and The Necks - Travel [2/24/23].Apologies in advance for the poor audio quality at some spots here but you know it's gonna be worth it to hear us talk about the films in the title and the albums up top, on top of hearing our technical difficulties in real time, a new listening project one of us is starting, and some apartment hunting stories.

I swear I'm almost caught up guys.This week's albums: 잠비나이 [Jambinai] - 發顯 (Apparition) [11/11/22] and Elder - Innate Passage [11/25/22]And a bonus film review: Everything, Everywhere, All the TimeThe Drive By Boys also try and figure out the early history of Korea, talk about the side effects of being tired, and get into some more movie talk about The Batman (which, neither of us have seen), the upcoming best flick of 2023, and Quentin Tarantino's recent comments about the "Marvelization" of Hollywood. And on top of that, we have a new business idea, maybe the best military recruitment idea you've ever heard, another easymode homemade liqueur, and a gym story.

We also come up with one of the best military recruitment strategies you could ever imagine, toss out a semi-baseless conspiracy theory, and talk about homemade liqueurs and unintended mistakes at the gym.
