    I got Dani hooked on one of my favorite shows: Peaky Blinders. It's a gorgeous, violent show about 1920s gangsters with good acting and even better cheekbones. What's not to love? Just like with HACF, we're recording one episode per season. We did the first three a while back but paused once the protests started. Dani's been dying to see Adrian Brody's turn in S4 so we're finally starting up again. Here's our review of the first season of Peaky. Enjoy!

    Dani and I both loved the new Hulu romcom everyone is talking about! It's a brilliant new take on Groundhog's Day from the Lonely Island guys starring Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti. If you haven't seen it already, you gotta. It's a perfect 90 min feel good movie. If you have already seen it, well you're in the right place. Enjoy!

    Had to force myself to upload something today. I've been anxiously glued twitter for the last 48 hrs as my chest and stomach fill with dread as I wonder what it will take for America to change. But yeah, anyway here's a recap of a tv show! Truthfully this show has been a lot of fun for me and Dani to watch, this season included, it's just hard to be enthusiastic about something which seems really trivial now. Oh yeah, and before I forget, we do talk a bit about suicide at the end so,CW: Suicide

    Thanks to a good recommendation, we have a new favorite show. It's an AMC show set in the cutthroat world of personal computing in the 1980s. It's on Netflix, and it's very bingeable. If you're not onto it yet, we highly recommend it. It's got great characters, good writing, cool music and Mackenzie Davis. We're gonna have an episode on each of the four seasons as we watch through it, so you can hear our thoughts as we go along.
