This week we put the superheroes aside and watched Kong Skull Island, a movie about the cast of marvel fighting King Kong. What does it have to say about war? Quite a lot, surprisingly.
But you'll have to wait for that, because Gene and Pat are off on several different tangents, and got banned from TikTok live for a whole day for having the, frankly, necessary conversation about whether King Kong would have a massive dong.
Come join us for a lot of goofs and gaffes, and then a serious conversation about Vietnam, coming home from war, violence, and trauma.

Previous Episode

Justice League, The Snyder Cut

I (Pat) never thought we'd see the day, after years of campaigning (often too aggressively) with the hashtag #releasethesnydercut the internet finally has its day. And it's going to take most of the day because this bad boy's four hours long.
Is it any good? I guess you'll have to listen in to find out. In a rare turn, when our Podcast is shorter than the film we are discussing.
Will Gene have good things to say? Or this another Iron Giant episode? Will Pat go off on a ridiculous tangent about what Superman SHOULD be? Yeah. He will definitely do that.
Join us, and enjoy all the goofs and gaffes as we break down this movie turned internet meme turned back into a movie.

Next Episode

Breaks are Important (A solo episode)

A special episode this week with just me, Patrick, the person who usually writes these descriptions in the third person.
I gave Gene the week off because he's a hard-working lad, and he deserves it. So please enjoy a solo episode about coming home from Afghanistan, and how that experience feels similar to today, as we see the end of the tunnel with Covid.
Not a terribly long episode, but I hope it'll hold you over till next week when we tackle our first actual war film.
It's gonna be a real goof.
