And Now Our Watch Begins

Ryan and Dakota make their triumphant return to talk Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, elephants, and Ryan's unforgivable lack of enthusiasm for 'The Nice Guys.'

All we do is watch movies now because we can not leave our homes!

Along with special guest Ryan Kiourkas, permanent hosts Dakota Lovins and Alex Josquin delve into their favorite moves of the summer - whether they've actually seen them or not.

Our watch has ended.

It is said that every time Ryan and Dakota record a podcast, the Gods flip a coin to determine if it is good or bad. I'm not sure how this coin has landed yet. IDK. Dany is evil now, and Jamie is back to his "I'd push a kid off of a balcony" form, so anything can happen.

Ryan and Dakota are left disappointed by how normal the length of this night actually was.
