This week we dive into The Zeit’s hottest current streaming source (aka Delta’s in-flight entertainment system 🙀) and recap our 2022 L’s.

We’ve got a lot in store for you in the newest episode in 2022. We discuss our profound dislike of Don’t Look Up (gross), we debate the pros and cons of Peter Jackson’s infamous Director’s Cut of the Fellowship of the Ring, and we LOL at Ali Wong’s new Netflix Special.

Journey with us on this journey of journeys.

A summary of this week’s icy hot takes (15:57):

Back from a forced hiatus of biblical proportions, KY and Bradford debate the social dichotomy of modern FBoys and the Islamic siege on the Christian seat of power, Constantinople. But first, they test the limits of meta-cognition through indulgence of bourbon. Oh, and I guess they also kick off the first review of the Paul Thomas Anderson (PTA) series with Magnolia (46:18, Netflix).

But first, the recovering reductivists recount their hiatus activities while discussing their streaming recommendations. KY watched: Silence (10:45, Hulu), Rise of Empires: Ottoman (17:13, Netflix), and The Favourite (28:09, Apple iTunes). Bradford dulled his mind with FBoy Island (33:57, HBOMax), The Tomorrow War (35:47, Amazon Prime), and Suicide Squad (39:39, HBOMax)

This week, KY and Bradford explore a world where lighthouse keepers are ground down by their lack of access to the means of capital production, uncover the throughline from Gilgamesh to Prometheus to Frankenstein to Ridley Scotts’...well...Prometheus (HBO Max), and, of course, erect a debate about modern phallic symbols through the lens of A24’s The Lighthouse (25:39, Amazon Prime).

But first, the pandering pedants perceive nuance in the American Zeitgeist while discussing their streaming recommendations. KY watched (or listened to): Coming 2 America (7:25, Amazon Prime), Some Kind of Monster (11:53, Netflix), The Soundtrack Show (14:57, podcast) Bradford watched Bo Burnham: Inside (19:56, Netflix, at KY’s recommendation from last month’s episode).

This week, KY and Bradford finally break free from the grip of the modern superhero movie to discuss their affinity for Brad Pitt’s body, Delta’s premium content experience, and Disney’s dark cultural constraint cloud over the haves and the have-nots in the shadow of the Magic Kingdom in this week’s feature, A24's The Florida Project (18:24, Netflix).

But first, the pedantic pair ponder the American Zeitgeist by way of their streaming recommendations. KY watched: The Shield (2:45, Hulu), the most recent F1 race (4:42, live TV!), and Bo Burnham: Inside (8:29, Netflix). Bradford watched: Bloodshot (11:27, Starz), The Nest (13:04, Showtime), Over the Garden Wall (15:39, Hulu).

This week, KY discovers that his co-host, Bradford, has been using a cocktail of Raid and RoundUp as deodorant. Also, they discuss the perils of homeownership and the jubilation of leaping from rooftops in the context of the multiverse of this week’s feature film, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (25:50, Apple iTunes).

But first, the delirious dyad descant the American Zeitgeist by way of their streaming recommendations. KY watched: Wildlife (9:10, Netflix), Grizzly Man (12:18, Amazon Prime), and Cave of Forgotten Dreams (17:00, Apple iTunes). Bradford watched: Sopranos (21:36, HBO Max), Formula 1: Drive to Survive (24:15, Netflix).

This week, KY and Brad talk about cowboys, giant humanoid robots, and the nature of human struggle against entropy through the lens of Guillermo del Toro’s masterful Pacific Rim (14:54, Hulu).

But first, the preposterous pair postulate about the American Zeitgeist by way of their streaming and anti-streaming recommendations. KY watched: Alone (3:51, Hulu), War for the Planet of the Apes (7:13, Apple iTunes). Bradford watched Zack Snyder’s Justice League (8:24, HBO Max), WandaVision (12:35, Disney+), and Girl Porn (aka Outlander) (11:04, Starz).
