      What happens when movie obsession meets podcast dedication? A journey from basement recordings to approaching 200 episodes of cinematic conversations.

      Looking back at nearly four years of podcasting, we laugh about our humble beginnings—passing a single microphone back and forth, recording in friends' basements, and overthinking every introduction. Those early technical struggles have evolved into a dedicated setup and growing audience, especially as our TikTok clips gain traction. Despite our full-time jobs limiting production time, our passion for watching and discussing films remains unwavering.

      The streaming landscape has captured our attention lately, with one host deep into Stranger Things for the first time ("It's such binge worthy... I'm hooked") while the other eagerly discusses Peacemaker's return. We dive into Margaret Qualley's dark comedy "Honey Don't," dissecting everything from its disjointed plot and excessive sex scenes to the star-studded cast including Aubrey Plaza and Chris Evans. Sidney Sweeney's recent films "Eden" and "Americana" also get attention, with particular praise for Rod Howard's storytelling in "Eden" despite its limited theatrical promotion.

      Our conversation detours through Chance the Rapper's impressive new album, Tarantino's future projects, and the universal frustration of sitting through increasingly lengthy pre-movie advertisements ("sometimes it is 40 minutes before they start playing the movie"). Through it all, our enthusiasm for cinema shines through—whether recommending underrated gems or analyzing industry trends.

      We dive into first impressions of Spider-Man 4, breaking down the newly revealed suit and what it represents for Tom Holland's character, while exploring how Sony is managing leaks and building anticipation a year before release.

      • The blended Spider-Man suit incorporates elements from both the original and Amazing Spider-Man designs
      • Tom Holland's excitement about returning to the role alongside Shang-Chi director Destin Daniel Cretton
      • Sony's strategy of officially releasing images to counter unofficial set photos
      • Speculation about villains and potential connections to Jon Bernthal's character

      After discussing recent streaming platform preferences and the decline of Netflix as our go-to service, we review several recent films including The Naked Gun, Freakier Friday, Weapons, and Together.

      • The surprising effectiveness of Liam Neeson's deadpan delivery in The Naked Gun
      • Why Freakier Friday works as a sequel 20+ years later with returning stars Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis
      • The standout performance from Jamie Lee Curtis embodying teenage mannerisms in an older body
      • The creative popcorn bucket design that perfectly ties into the body-switching theme
      • The effective mix of nostalgia through cameos from the original cast while telling a fresh story
