Talking out loud about the stuff that won’t leave us alone.  Hosted by James Tolbert and Curt Mega, So, What Are You Into?! is a low-stakes conversation podcast built around interpersonal cultural commentary. Each episode, we bring the movies, shows, music, ideas, and random cultural obsessions we’ve genuinely been engaging with lately. No homework required. Not reviews. Just honest, sometimes ranty conversations about why something’s sticking and what happens when you talk about it with other people.  

This week we talk about why “ordinary” characters have been speaking to us in a moment that feels anything but ordinary. When the world feels unstable, why do stories about flawed, working-class, quietly moral people hit harder?  

James brings:  • Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die  • No Other Choice  • One Battle After Another  • The Secret Agent  We dig into foreign-language films and the way they smuggle in profound social commentary without announcing themselves as Important Cinema. What makes these stories feel urgent? What are they revealing about systems, survival, and the quiet absurdity of modern life?  

Curt brings:  • Wonder Man  • A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms  

Both shows circle back to a core question: what does it mean to live fully in your calling - even when nobody sees or cares?  

We talk about:  • Vocation vs. visibility  • Excellence in a culture that rewards frauds  • Why “doing the right thing” feels radical again  • And why we’re craving stories about people trying - imperfectly - to be decent
