  • Is THE RUNNING MAN a Success + Is it ok to Order Meals from Two Different Places, lol - EP 187
    Nov 21 2025

    Pod favorite, director Edgar Wright comes crashing back into theaters with his take on Stephen King’s THE RUNNING MAN! Is it a hit or a stumble?

    Before our feature discussion we discuss the news of Tom Cruise’s Governors Award, as the legendary actor finally gets his Oscar.

    Then we have a (rather unfortunate) look at the latest teaser trailer for Disney’s latest live-action remake, MOANA.

    We have a good session in our “Let’s talk about this now” segment, discussing the crossroads of ordering from one or two restaurants at a time and the art of choking!

    We wrap it all up with what we’re into, including Miguel and Luis getting onto the Playstation Plus package, Ed reviews Lynne Ramsey’s DIE MY LOVE (with yet another great performance from Jennifer Lawrence), and his journey to Slough House with appletv’s SLOW HORSES!

    Luis caps it all off with his first thoughts on Vince Gilligan’s latest, PLURIBUS, also on Appletv! Can the creator of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul go 3 for 3?
