We’re back from the big Virginia snowstorm and cold snap with stories of survival (indoors), digital rabbit holes, and the games that kept us sane while the world outside froze solid.

Then we get into a strange and wild ride through a dead man’s emails that are now public — and what they reveal is… something. From gaming to digital voyeurism, we cover it all.

This Week’s Recs:

We’re venturing beyond All Affleck April with Ben’s latest team-up with Matt Damon in The Rip — a gritty Netflix crime thriller that you should be constantly streaming at you home.

Then we dive back into Finnish mayhem with Sisu: Road to Revenge, the brutal, blood-soaked sequel to the film we loved a while back. It’s bigger, weirder, and somehow even more unkillable.

📺 And in our weekly recommendations:
