  • Good reviews, great banter

    A friend from work told me about this podcast. I listened to their chat about The Accountant. I’m hooked. In addition to the joy of listening to two friends riff on each other, you get some really insightful discussion of these moments in pop culture and why these movies are worth discussion.l

  • The Pun Masters

    You have heard of Toast Masters - these guys are the Pun Masters. Listen closely for those verbal gems you will find yourself reusing around the water cooler Monday morning. The word play flowing from these guys would make Q Tip and Phife Dawg jealous
