We discuss Nyad (2023), the true story of athlete Diana Nyad, who, assisted by her best friend and coach, attempts to complete a record-breaking swim from Cuba to Florida. Annette Bening and Jodie Foster scored Oscar nominations for best lead and supporting actress, respectively, for their performances. A bunch of things stand out about this film: enduring sunburns and sores, potentially fatal wildlife interactions, perseverance, ageism, abuse, leadership, friendship, and more.

Araña Azul (Blue Beetle, 2023)

11 Recommendations

We discuss Blue Beetle (2023), a DCEU action/adventure/sci-fi film with genuine emotion despite some serious writing flaws. It connects with the audience on topics such as student debt, family, immigration and financial hardship. Of course, nothing makes it more relatable than superpowers granted by parasitic alien tech. That's happened to everyone, amirite? Yes, we know an araña is a spider, not a beetle. Listen to the episode - it makes sense! Plus, listen to Chris try to flex his Hispanic muscles and pronounce the cast's names. Such an adorable failure!

Roadkill (Pet Sematary, 1989)

We look at Pet Sematary (1989), the story of a a family in Stephen-King-Maine, who learns to use the power of an ancient burial ground where “the ground’s gone sour” and soon discovers that “sometimes dead is better.” We discuss intrusive neighbors, unexplained Shining skills, and living next to dangerous roads, among other things.

This almost became a "lost episode," since we recorded it back in late 2023. So much has happened since then! We got married, had a honeymoon, and then moved to another state. But we're still the same oddball couple, still watching movies and picking them apart, still making each other laugh - and hopefully you, too!
