    Discussing the trailer for DUNE PART 3 & HOUSE OF THE DRAGON continues its reign (Ep 2+3) - EP 216
    Jul 10 2026

    This week - the holy war begins with the first, full trailer for DUNE PART THREE!


    We’re joined by our good friend and Westerosi expert Stephen Escobar to help us in our feature discussion, but before that we revel in the sheer scope and craft shown in the new DUNE 3 trailer, and cannot wait for its release in December.


    Then we come to our feature discussion, catching up on episodes 2 & 3 from HOUSE OF THE DRAGON’s season 3. Has the show been holding up to expectations? How does it compare to the source material? Stephen fills us in (and more).


    All that and more, so sit back, relax and listen (or watch) our latest ep. Don’t forget to follow, like and subscribe wherever you find your pods, on youtube, and on social media! Don’t forget to leave a comment. Stay Tuned for more next week!

    World Cup Fever + House of the Dragon returns with Season 3, but was it worth the wait? - EP 215
    Jun 26 2026

    After two years of waiting, HOUSE OF THE DRAGON is back with season 3! Was it worth the wait?


    More to the point, was there a battle on the water? In a sense, but more on that in the episode.


    This week, we return to Westeros, dragons galore. Before we battle it out with that season premiere, however, we catch up on the latest updates to our Summer Movie Wager! Has Toy Story 5 met our expectations?


    Plus, we get into something perhaps a little out of character for us… we talk sports! Specifically the FIFA WORLD CUP ‘26!


    Yes, we’re here for the football (that’s right, we said football), and we discuss the tournament so far as we near the end of the group stage - and boy what a group stage!


    All that and more, so sit back, relax and listen (or watch) our latest ep. Don’t forget to follow, like and subscribe wherever you find your pods, on youtube, and on social media! Don’t forget to leave a comment. Stay Tuned!
