  • Not great

    Just listened to the first 10 mins of the Once Were Warriors pod, really poor. Heaps of the hosts saying ‘I don’t know about New Zealand’, ‘I don’t know about Māori culture’, ‘ I have no experience with…’, ‘I’m not comfortable saying (a characters name) not particularly offensive by the way, I think his names Neg, but that’s too much for the hosts’. Why listen to two chumps bang on about something they clearly don’t care about and haven’t made any effort to engage with.

  • Tell me I’m wrong

    I come for some of my favorite podcasters, I stay for the constant slurps, gulps, and mouth noises directly into my ear. It’s like they know we all want more “cowbell,” and by more cowbell I mean consistent, guttural oral sounds that emanate when you drink in the beginning, middle and end of every other sentence. I’m surprised there aren’t more cuts to go to the bathroom because these boys are hydrated.

  • Jaded

    Longtime listener, possibly done. It’s sad to me to hear so many of the guys grow SO jaded over the years. On the whole it feels like they don’t enjoy anything, and jump straight to lazy hyperbole anytime something doesn’t work for them. Tom on the “Project Hail Mary” episode was the last straw for me. I know it’s a hard time out there but the negativity just feels like a larger and larger part of the identity of this programming.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

We Just Watched... The Wailing (With Jason Pargin)
Q: Had anybody seen this movie before, Jason? Like when you brought it to us, had you seen it?
Pargin had seen The Wailing many times, considers it one of his favorite horror films, and has studied its deleted scenes, interviews, and fan theories.
TimeCast - 9.25.2026 - Featuring Drew Grant
Q: Would you like to plug anything?
The guest plugs VideoDrew and his OnlyFans presence, then shifts to the podcast's Patreon and various exclusive shows at patreon.com/gamefullyunemployed, followed by general promo for the podcast's store and sister shows.
TimeCast - 8.28.2026 - Featuring Michael Swaim
Q: What stood out most to you about 1996 trailer design and marketing?
Trailers of 1996 used a bold, often meta approach with aggressive pacing, iconic voiceover, and cultural touchstones that created an immediate sense of spectacle and hype, sometimes making a film feel bigger than it was.
We Just Watched... Celia (With Drew Grant)
Q: What did you think of Celia as a character and her narrative arc?
Celia is portrayed as a preternaturally perceptive child who absorbs the cruelties around her and channels them into a radical response, suggesting that oppression and systemic propaganda can push someone toward extreme action, while also highlighting the difficulty of breaking free from ingrained dogma.
Sasq Watch - 15 - Big Legend
Q: What do you think of Big Legend?
It's the edge, but with Big Feet, more or less.
