About this listen

In this episode, Tim and Amber review three powerful stories about friendship, conflict, and the people closest to us — for better or worse.

We break down Pig (2021), the acclaimed Nicolas Cage drama about a reclusive chef searching for his missing truffle pig. We talk themes, performances, and why this film still resonates with audiences.

Next, we dive into the Netflix true-crime documentary The Perfect Neighbor, a shocking real-life story about a hated neighbor who tears her community apart. We explore the case, the documentary’s approach, and the uncomfortable truths it uncovers.

Finally, we review Wicked for Good, the new musical adaptation exploring a complicated friendship, unexpected betrayals, and the emotional heart of the Wicked universe. We discuss how the film compares to the first part and what makes this version so divisive.

If you’re looking for thoughtful and deep reviews of the best you can watch in cinemas, or streaming on Netflix, plus thoughtful discussion on friendship, neighbors, and hidden tensions — this is the episode for you.

Tune in for in-depth movie and documentary reactions, honest opinions, and smart film talk.
