    Oct 30 2025

    This week, James, Jerah, and Jon are covering A House of Dynamite, directed by Kathryn Bigelow, written by Noah Oppenheim, starring Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, Gabriel Basso, Jared Harris, and Tracy Letts. Together, they discuss how often they think of nuclear armageddon, how familiar the score felt, the film’s resemblance to Contagion (without spoilers), the film’s resemblance to Paradise (WITH spoilers, be warned, for roughly the 23:10–38:30 area (but really, kind of throughout, so, if you want to avoid Paradise spoilers, watch that, THEN watch A House of Dynamite, and THEN listen to this episode), the way the film works for Halloween watching, and much, much more!
