  161. Disclosure Day

  Aug 7, 20261h 5m

  This was the movie that was supposed to change everything! Life on Earth was never going to be the same after this movie! Instead, we get Emily Blunt having a Dr. Doolittle relationship with animals, a glowing phallic stick of extraterrestrial origins and an unveiling of footage less scary than anything currently on Instagram. Barry and Julia talk about this Spielberg film, compare it to his extraordinary body of work, and try to find enthusiasm for an alien movie less exciting than "MAC and Me."

  160. The Bride! (2026)

  Jul 24, 20261 hour

  One of us loved it and one of us hated it! Barry and Julia talk about this outrageous version of the Bride of Frankenstein, what (mostly) worked and what really didn't work at all. Did Jessie Buckley go too far playing too many characters with loud accents? Did Maggie Gyllenhaal's message get drowned out by the spectacle of it all? We talk about all of it! Plus, merch ideas that we should definitely think about trademarking before this episode publishes. Let us know if you guessed right about who loved this movie!

  Jul 10, 20261h 2m

  Our conversation revolves around the original Wuthering Heights and how different director Emerald Fennel takes this classic novel and gives it all the passionate intensity she can muster. Barry talks about seeing it in theaters and I share how I never wanted to see it. Did we love it? You'll have to listen in. Why are tortured romances so interesting to watch? Let's get into it!
