  • Love IHE, but think I need a break from YMS

    Alex and Jake are the only two YouTubers I’ve ever subscribed to, and I did so without knowing they’d have a podcast together, so of course I listen to this. Alex’s videos helped get me through a rough time in college so I like supporting all of his projects.

    I remember liking YMS videos back in the day but I have a hard time with him in this podcast. He’s the only host who doesn’t like to self depreciate with jokes, he frequently brings up grievances from outside the show, and he has really ha... more

  • Great podcast for movie lovers.

    So much better now that Ralph is gone/replaced.

    Sometimes Adam is insufferable with how he expresses his opinion. He'll fixate on a small detail and hyperbolically exaggerate its prominence to try and drive his point home. Sometimes he will also have an insanely condescending vibe, referring to "normies" and others' opinions. Also wants to exude expertise when he clearly lacks it. (Please don't try to talk about "how the brain works")

    Gripes aside. Love this show!... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Sardonicast 227: You Can See Everything (spoiler-free), Whalefall, The Social Reckoning, The Blob
Q: Now that You Can See Everything is getting a ton of praise, can it be considered a normie masterpiece?
The hosts say it is receiving broad acclaim, but debate whether mainstream moviegoers are seeking it out. They suggest its word-of-mouth and status as a theatrical conversation piece could bring in a wider audience.
Sardonicast 227: You Can See Everything (spoiler-free), Whalefall, The Social Reckoning, The Blob
Q: What are your thoughts on Sacha Baron Cohen's Ali G, especially with his new movie releasing?
Alex recommends Ali G's television work to fans of Borat and Bruno, and strongly recommends Who Is America? Jake and Adam have not seen much of Cohen's work, so they reserve judgment on the new film.
Sardonicast 226: Hope, Digger, Bad Boy Bubby
Q: Who slash what are the three of you dressing up as for this year's Sardonicast Halloween party?
Jake says he plans to reuse an expensive costume, Alex plans to dress as Crazy Frog and The Dude for two parties, and Adam expects to join his son's first trick-or-treating outing without choosing a costume.
Sardonicast 226: Hope, Digger, Bad Boy Bubby
Q: Did you see the Amigos, GDT and Koran, defending Digger and calling people that didn't like it stupid? Also, did you see the official marketing team on Twitter calling Americans stupid for not liking Digger?
The hosts discuss the film's online defense and its marketing, noting that a Warner Bros. ad contrasted negative American reviews with positive reviews from other countries. They say they had not seen evidence that the marketing explicitly called viewers stupid.
Sardonicast 225: Resident Evil, All That Jazz
Q: What makes the Resident Evil adaptation work as a film rather than a one-to-one game translation?
The group agrees that focusing on a fresh, competent human protagonist and weaving game-like tropes into a new narrative structure helps the film avoid feeling like a straight retread, while still honoring the source material's atmosphere and puzzles.
