Marvel, Mount Everest, and the business of making movies. What could possibly connect them?

Nelson and Tim are back with another round of entertainment takes, starting with Funny Money: The Dane Cook Story. Tim gives a quick take on the documentary about the comedian, because apparently there's always room for one more opinion.

Then it's time for VisionQuest on Disney+, the latest Marvel TV limited series. Will it be a worthy addition to the MCU, or is Marvel still trying to figure out what comes next?

Next, the guys head for the world's highest peak with Tenzing on Apple TV+, exploring the story behind one of Mount Everest's most legendary climbs.

But this episode isn't just about what we're watching. Nelson and Tim also dig into the bigger problems facing the film industry—and why audiences increasingly seem happy to wait for streaming instead of heading to theaters. Is Hollywood losing its audience, or has the moviegoing experience simply become too expensive to justify?

One comedian, one Marvel series, one mountain-climbing story, and an industry trying to find its footing. No pressure, Hollywood.

Finales, fast cars, and some truly terrible opinions. Welcome back to The Final Take!

Nelson and Tim are back to deliver their final takes on the finales of Ted Lasso Season 4 on Apple TV+ and Lanterns on HBO Max. Did these shows stick the landing, or are we about to need a support group for disappointed TV fans?

Then it's time for The Matchbox Movie on Apple TV+, starring John Cena, Jessica Biel, and Sam Richardson. Toy cars, action, and Hollywood doing what Hollywood does best: turning just about anything into a movie.

And because apparently we spend too much time indoors watching screens, Tim forces everyone to touch grass by reading one-star reviews from Rotten Tomatoes. Nothing says healthy outdoor living like listening to irrational people destroy movies on the internet.

Two finales. One movie. A collection of deeply questionable opinions. What could possibly go wrong?

Before the intro even starts, Tim Rick Rolls Nelson. Yep. That's how this episode begins.

After that completely unnecessary betrayal, Nelson and Tim get a little more educational than usual and dive into three documentaries covering history, artificial intelligence, money, and the questionable things people will do for it.

First up is Band of Brothers Legacy on HBO Max, followed by The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist on Netflix, exploring the promises, possibilities, and potential nightmares of artificial intelligence.

Then they take on Everybody Is Lying to You for Money on Prime Video, a documentary about the crypto industry and the hype, pitfalls and questionable behavior that can come with chasing the next big digital fortune.

So, this week we've got history, AI, money, deception—and one extremely unnecessary Rick Roll before we've even officially started.
