Dylan Schwan took some time out of his busy schedule to bring on former guest Dylan Salcedo to discuss some of the TV they've been watching. They discuss the ending to the FX comedy series, You're the Worst, as well as the sophomore season of HBO's Barry. Dylan Schwan talks about his love for Netflix's sketch comedy series I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson as well as Steve James Starz docuseries America to Me. Dylan also talks about a couple of CBS All Access series with the absurd The Good Fight and surprisingly tepid The Twilight Zone. But don't worry, both Dylan's end up discussing the (literally) dark first battle episode on this season of Game of Thrones.

Christopher Cross and Dylan Schwan take a journey through the lands of Hollywood and beyond with David Robert Mitchell's third feature, Under the Silver Lake. Do they find a satirical and comedic take on the Hollywood noir or a misogynistic and messy portrayal of a man oogling his way through a city where men fail upward? This is the place where we'll let you know what we think. The boys finally decide to fill you in on all the tv that's premiered over the last couple months with their takes on Barry, What We Do in the Shadows, The Twilight Zone, and Game of Thrones. Dylan takes the time to tell you about the new "Childish Gambino film", Guava Island. Is it a beautiful tribute to movies made about specific points of culture and gangster films like City of God or is it made just to make Donald Glover look good? Dylan also talks about the latest Claire Denis film, High Life. What's the fuck box? There is plenty of discussion of the fuck box.

Christopher Cross and Dylan Schwan caught up with the DC Universe again with their latest film, Shazam! They talk about the charms of Zachary Levi, the films place in the DCEU, and how successful it is as a comic book movie. After taking a week off, they've got a few things to get off their chest. Both Dylan and Chris watched The Beach Bum and possibly declare it one of the best stoner comedies of this century. Dylan talks about his experience during a 24 hour movie marathon (hit and miss).

Christopher Cross and Dylan Schwan are finally able to let out a sigh of relief now that they've seen Jordan Peele's sophomore effort, Us. How do they feel about the film's relationship to his previous movie, Get Out? Does the loose, sprawling appeal of Us do Peele's directorial and writing style justice? Find out here! They also get into the latest film from provocateur S. Craig Zahler, Dragged Across Concrete. Does it lack the "political" issues that Zahler denies were an issue in Brawl in Cell Block 99? Is it too long? Why is Vince Vaughn in movies still? Then Chris gets into the new action film, Triple Threat.

Christopher Cross and Dylan Schwan invite you on another journey filled with movies of varying quality to celebrate their 150th episode. They've got their hands full with some lesser known or forgotten films from big action stars of the late 80's - 90's period. They travel through the decade with the Arnold Schwarzenegger/Jim Belushi vehicle Red Heat. There's a slight detour into a legitimately good movie with Bruce Willis' The Last Boy Scout. Then they sat through the Sylvester Stallone starring Assassins. And finally they sat through the movie we should all be talking about more often, Van Damme and Rodman's Double Team.
