What We Stream

In this packed episode, we gives our thoughts on Andor  Season 2 — what worked, what surprised us, and what it means for the future of Star Wars TV. Then, we react to the brand-new Superman (2025) trailer and break down all the big reveals, Easter eggs, and DCU implications. Finally, we bring back a hilarious segment: a dramatic reading of the "Greatest College Script of All Time," written by none other than our co-host Mike. You don't want to miss this mix of geek news, storytelling chaos, and hot takes!

On this May the Fourth, we dive deep into the galaxy of STAR WARS—not to rank lightsaber duels or debate Jedi lore, but to ask a more deranged and profound question: How do you turn brain rot into cinema? From the bloated spectacle of franchise fatigue to the unexpected prestige of Andor, we explore how one of the world’s most memed, merchandised, and overextended IPs somehow produced a work of real political drama, human depth, and aesthetic restraint. What does it take to elevate the algorithmic sludge into art? And more importantly—why does it feel so good when it works?

We're back to give our final thoughts on the (short-lived) Acolyte show—a few months after its final episode. We also get excited about WWE and the Paul-Tyson.

This episode was recorded before the Tyson-Paul fight so we didn't know how it had ended at the time of this recording.

Buckle up for an episode where the titanic terror of Tokyo, Godzilla, takes on a galaxy far, far away in a clash of cinematic titans! This week, we dive deep into the chaotic brilliance of Godzilla Minus One—because what's a monster movie without a little urban renewal? Then, we swing lightsabers and unravel mysteries with The Acolyte, a series that promised more intrigue than it delivered (for now). Will Godzilla learn the ways of the Force? Can a Jedi mind trick calm the King of the Monsters? Tune in to find out! Prepare for laughs, epic showdowns, and enough geeky insights to make a kaiju blush. Whether you're Team Roar or Team Saber, this episode is guaranteed to be a blast of atomic breath and Force waves. May the scales and stars be with you!

We're back with a Nick Cage movie that flopped this year even though we loved it. #nicolascaged

In this candid farewell, we explain why we're ending the podcast and some of our thoughts about our next steps.

The episode was pre-recorded. We discuss the beloved and hated prequel-sequel series from Disney+, Obi-Wan Kenobi. We also discuss CATS, the movie version of the musical that's so weird we can't stop watching it.

It's been a long week for both Raf and Mike. That's why we're talking about an easy-to-watch Sandra Bullock movie with a smidge of Channing Tatum. After that, we ramble about Eurovision 2022 and more.
