    I’ve never seen a group of “experts” so off on HP and its legacy.

  • You need to listen to this one!

    Update: I originally rated this show five stars after finding it during Covid and haven’t missed a show since. It is still fantastic after all these years and all the changes in ownership over the years. Kofi and Matt have been here since the beginning and are a great team. I do like that they’ve added Janelle as a regular host as she brings a different perspective to the show.

  • Generally entertaining

    Generally entertaining but a few people and their “hot takes” or lack of opinion get annoying.

    One host has no opinion of their own, they just agree with whatever someone else says and has nothing to contribute.

    They sound incompetent when they go out of their way to not upset the Snyder fans.

    Also, has Coffee (name intentionally mis-provinces) ever pronounced a name correctly?

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The MCU X-Men Are Here - What Comes NeXt? (Episode 8x32)
Q: How do you think Jean Grey's MCU origin will influence the next X‑Men era?
It provides a grounded, character‑driven entry point that could anchor future teams and frame the X‑Men's themes around belonging and family.
Superman Interview With VFX Supervisor Guy Williams (Bonus Episode)
Q: How nerdy do the conversations get where it's like, do you guys have to nerd out and geek out and argue with each other about what happens when Superman has this or that happen to him?
Very nerdy. We often have conversations of how do we tell this story point without breaking from the character.
Superman Interview With VFX Supervisor Guy Williams (Bonus Episode)
Q: Was the river one of the final things that took you guys down to the wire before release to get it finalized?
Some of our last shots were in the river, definitely. There were some river pie shots, especially around the black hole.
Superman Interview With VFX Supervisor Guy Williams (Bonus Episode)
Q: Did you find there was anything particularly novel or different working with DC Studios?
Yes and no. If you've worked with James before, he hasn't changed much since he became the head of the studio.
Daredevil: Born Again Episode 8 Reactions & Amazing Spider-Man Relaunch (Episode 7x15)
Q: What did you guys think about this episode?
This episode is amazing; it has great emotional depth and compelling tension, particularly in the character interactions.
