It starts as an interest, then you're a fan, now you're a geek.
Our heroes have discovered FX's show "What We Do In The Shadows" and are in love. Can't believe it took this long to get to it! So there's a good deal of discussion about that. The final two episodes of "Doom Patrol" aired since we last spoke and so those get a good amount of talk as well. Plus, of course, toys. A few other random bits and bobs.
Justin just drove all the way across country to spend some time with his family during this pandemic crap, so Matt's friend Jeremy from the Dark Tower Radio podcast drops by for a chat. They talk about books, "The Man in the High Castle", "Westworld", and much more.
San Diego Comic Con had their virtual COVID-19 safe con, but it didn't really amount to much. A bunch of cool toys got revealed, but really that's it. So we talk about those, mostly. Justin watched a few of the online panels. We discuss two episodes of "Doom Patrol" since we didn't have a podcast last week.
As the entertainment industry continues to be shut down, sometimes we gotta get creative with what we talk about. Justin's committed to rewatching "South Park" from the beginning. Both the guys watched the newest episode of "Doom Patrol". Matt tries to decided what his 100th Funko Pop should be.
Doom Patrol season two has begun! The first four episodes are out and we have so much to say! On top of that, we talk about other stuff. I can't remember. That was Sunday. It's now Tuesday night. You expect me to remember Sunday? WEAR A MASK IN PUBLIC!
Justin and Matt are joined by Aryn and Danny of the band Acid Roulette for some fun chatter.

Matt kicks off the show with a little RIP to comic writing legend Denny O'Neil. Beyond that...not a lot happened this week. At least not on Matt's end or in the world at large. Justin, on the other hand, watched a fun new show on Hulu AND sat through the presentation about the PS5, which is mostly what this episode is about. Also, of course, there's toy talk, a little bit about Pokemon, and more.
Matt starts the show off by hollering at J.K. Rowling and other discriminatory people before we move on to actual geeky stuff like toys, "Doom Patrol", "The Invisible Man", a few horror documentaries Justin saw, news about the new "Evil Dead" film and more.
Everything is terrible right now. We know it. You know it. But at least we can take some joy in the fact that Justin FINALLY started watching Doom Patrol! So we talk about that for a bit. Plus toys and our other usual stuff. Keep the faith, folks. We love you. Live long and prosper.
We never thought it was coming, but here we are, staring down the barrel of "Zack Snyder's Justice League", coming to HBO Max in 2021. What do our heroes think? Also, why is Matt torturing himself by looking at expensive toys? Rick and Morty's latest adventure. "Alita, Battle Angel". We made a bookshop. More.
We kick the episode off talking about the newest episode of "Rick and Morty" before going off into Spider-Man territory, comic talk, toy talk (duh), Justin's recent movie purchases, Matt's accidental eBay win, and more!
Matt's finally all caught up on Rick and Morty, so our adventure this week begins by diving into all the episodes so far this season! Then, we move away from that onto Spider-Man, Star Wars, a hint of Godzilla, and more.
This episode kicks off on a weird foot as our heroes remember old internet videos, forgotten books and movies and strange commercials. Then they move on to Justin revisiting Austin Powers, Matt making his way through Spider-Man cartoons he hasn't seen and the season finale of "Westworld".
Matt finished up the '90s Spider-Man. Justin watched a few movies. We really dive into the latest episode of "Westworld" and how this season could wrap up. Plus, Matt has started watching "Run" on HBO and Justin is watching "Good Girls" on Netflix.
Our heroes are staying the course as the world remains upside down. Matt finally watched a movie he's been saying he'll watch for ages. Movies got moved, stuff got cancelled, yadda yadda yadda. The newest episode of "Westworld" raised a few more questions.
In the face of everything being on hold, our heroes come to terms with the fact that their episodes must, for a time, get a little shorter. However, they still have things to discuss: Justin saw what may be the best bad movie ever, Matt watched more Spider-Man and played more Jedi: Fallen Order. Plus, we catch up on the most recent two episodes of Westworld.
Justin watched a boat load of films in his ongoing quarantine. Matt's revisiting the old '90s Spider-Man and sure is glad Aunt May has changed since then. "Westworld" episode three was on. Matt did some ill-advised online retail therapy.
Justin is still sheltered at home as Matt still has to go out and about for work in this seemingly post-Snap world. Our intrepid heroes discuss what's occupying their time including: the '90s Spider-Man show, "Westworld", "Kingdom" and more.
Well, we're about a week into this pandemic thing and just finding ways to not lose our minds. At least Westworld is back! Yeah, baby! Also, our heroes watched both versions of the movie "The Crazies". Which one did they like more?
With the entire country shut down due to a global pandemic, our heroes give you a rundown of everything that's been cancelled or rescheduled. Plus, the 1990 "Teenage Mutant Ninha Turtles" movie turns 30 in a little less than two weeks! Other things covered include: Justin finished "Jedi: Fallen Order" and Matt's reading some old comics.
