August is over, and Kernels is going monthly.

This time, Ian Price and Sean Duiser look at the split between a huge month at the box office and a much messier month on streaming. Spider-Man: Brand New Day carried theaters, The Odyssey gave August a second anchor, and everything else had to fight for space.

On the streaming side, there wasn’t one clear August winner. Hulu, Peacock, Apple TV, Netflix, Prime Video and HBO Max all had titles moving through the charts, which made the month feel less like a takeover and more like a weekly “what are people watching right now?” scoreboard.

Plus: Toy Story 5, Super Mario Galaxy, Michael, Project Hail Mary, One Night Only, Tom Holland’s Spider-Man run, Avengers ticket pressure, and whether the middle of the movie business is getting squeezed between giant event films and the couch.

18:01 – Theater or home? The August takeaway

What still feels big enough to break through?

This week, Ian Price and Sean Duiser look at August from three different angles: movie theaters, NFL roster cuts, and aliens suddenly feeling a lot less fringe.

First: the box office. Spider-Man: Brand New Day carried a monster August, The Odyssey stayed huge, streaming kept rotating winners, and Avengers tickets are already turning into a problem. Are movies back, or are only true event movies back?

Then: NFL cutdown week. Will Levis is out in Tennessee, former first-round picks are hitting the waiver wire, the Dolphins are flipping the roster, Aaron Donald is back with the Rams, rookie starters are showing up early, and quarterback rooms are already weird before Week 1.

Finally: Hubbub. Superman, Lanterns and Disclosure Day have Ian wondering if aliens are no longer the big reveal — they’re just the starting point now.

F’ing Around With F1 is back after summer break, and Sean Duiser is taking the lead after watching the full Dutch Grand Prix live.

Sean’s impulse parlay hit with Lando Norris to win and Kimi Antonelli to podium, then Norris went out and controlled Zandvoort from pole. Ian Price and Sean break down Norris’s win, Max Verstappen crashing out early in his final home race, Kimi Antonelli finishing second, George Russell making it a Mercedes double podium, Ferrari finishing fourth and fifth, and why Lewis Hamilton sounded frustrated with strategy again.

The guys also get into Oscar Piastri’s role at McLaren, whether Mercedes should feel pressure, Liam Lawson filling in for Isaac Hadjar, Nico Hulkenberg’s save for Audi, Fernando Alonso getting Aston Martin into the points, Cadillac still sitting on zero, and what comes next at Monza.

31:20 Betting recap

We ran every NFL team through our model and broke down the NFC West, AFC North, and NFC North win total projections. The Rams have the highest floor of any team in football. The Ravens have the fifth easiest schedule among contenders and nobody's talking about it. The Bears have a historic rest edge and we already have the over bet in. The NFC North is the biggest toss-up in football and the Lions secondary might be the worst in the league.

Part 2 coming next week.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day had the second biggest opening weekend in movie history. Microsoft gained $450 billion in market cap in a single day — more than Nike, McDonald's, and Starbucks combined. A glass bottle of water is LA's new status symbol at $4-6. Waymo's self-driving taxis racked up $9,325 in parking tickets in Austin with nobody disputing them. A Scottish runner broke the mile world record that stood for 27 years. And YKK has a near-monopoly on the global zipper market and most people have no idea. Ian Price and Sean Duiser run the numbers on Wit & Grit Price-Check.
