You're Wrong

It's Halloween Month here at You're Wrong! All October episodes will be Halloween-themed, and our intrepid hosts decided to kick it off with a battle royale to crown the scariest horror villain of all time!

The format is a tradition, at this point: Chris, Luciano and Spencer each picked one villain to champion and one to provide to Matt as an option for him to champion, as they run them through Matt's zany scenarios and questions. The winner is... never really decided on, because it's all about the journey, not the destination.

Oh, and a minor spoiler: let's just say one of the nerds really fucked up picking a scary horror villain to champion...

With the crew back at full capacity, this week the nerds tackled one of the worst maladies affecting the world of today: "Top 10"-style lists. In this particular episode, they looked specifically at lists related to superheroes, supervillains, sidekicks, that sort of thing.

And lemme tell ya, they found some doozies to talk about: some of them were just straight up plagiarism, some were concocted by the worst kind of basement-dwelling neckbeards the Internet has to offer and some were simply just wrong, but in the most bizarre of ways. Hell, some of them were so wrong they managed to fuck up even the number of entries they contain.

A real shitshow all around... i.e., plenty of material for these grumpy fucks to sink their teeth into. 😉

Having been utterly abandoned by their friends to fend for themselves, Chris and Luciano figured they would need a movie that was the cinematic equivalent of comfort food to help them cope with this trying time in their lives.

Their pick? Predator, obviously. What else would fit the bill but the story of an elite paramilitary rescue team being torn to pieces by a highly evolved alien hunter with a technologically advanced arsenal who likes to take the skulls of his victims as trophies? 

This week, Chris, Luciano and Matt decided to envision a few... unusual scenarios and ideas that they believe the beloved children's television series Sesame Street could/should take on. Just a few... out of the box ideas to help introduce a little bit of variety to their content, you know?

Don't worry, though. Despite what the title of this episode seems to imply, this did not at all get weird or unwholesome. 👍

The nerds were joined by recurring guest (and recurring substitute-Spencer) Scott to pit more... down to earth... heroes against each other in what is likely the worst-named battle royale in the history of battle royales!

Don't worry, though. Even though the "type" of hero their were supposed to pick was a bit more normal, they still managed to make some very dubious picks, and the conversation itself was as bonkers as it usually is.

The wholesome nerds that host this wholesome podcast are joined by their wholesome buddy Nick to wholesomely share their wholesome hot takes on one of the most wholesome subjects ever: the Super Mario franchise!

Obviously, since the subject matter is just so wholesome and pure, they kept this one very PG and not once did the conversation take a racy turn — certainly not right from the get-go, but not even throughout the episode. Obviously. 👀

Chris, Luciano and Matt (no, no Spencer — he'll be away for a few weeks, apparently busy with "real life things"... whatever that is) were joined by first-time guest Sali to answer some of Matt's peculiar movie questions about The Gray Man.

This one... sheesh, this one starts out OK, but nosedives really steeply, doesn't it? Good grief. Welp, more fodder for the nerds (and Sali) to flex their complaining muscles at (as if they need any extra reasons to do it).

Instead of discussing a single movie, the nerds decided to pick a random year and talk about a bunch of the movies that were released then — 12 in total, actually. The year they picked for this episode was 2004. Nope, no idea why.

Oh yeah, they tried to do this "game show"-style... but you know how they are. They couldn't stick properly to a format even if their life depended on it. But they did try, bless their hearts. They did try.

Following the news about the Batgirl movie being cancelled (and, quite frankly, just the overall fucked-up state of the DCEU), the nerds decided once again to do the charitable thing and try and to help Warner Bros., this time by running a few "what-if" scenarios about what could have been (and could still be) if they weren't terribad and knew what the fuck they were doing at least some of the time.

The first battle royale in months! This time, Chris, Luciano, and Spencer each picked their favourite spy/secret agent (as well as one each for Matt to choose from, as is tradition) to put through Matt's patented Original And Totally Not Copied From Anything™ scenarios.

The results were, as always, insane. Oh, and smutty. Worryingly smutty. 👀
