This week on the show we discuss John's PS5 debacle, what's going on with Xbox fans and Deathloop reviews, and the third Predator movie with the most star-studded cast yet. But does the film live up to this cast or is it yet another dude in our quest through all the AvP movies? Find out this week on The One About Predators.

This week on the show we talk about Masters of the Universe some more, review some of our movie watches from this week and dive into the downfall of the Alien franchise. Despite this being the third film in a row with an amazing director, Alien 3 is not at the caliber of the previous two...or is it? This is The One About Alien 3.

This week on the show WE HAVE THE POWER!!....as we discuss Masters of the Universe, Fear St., missing manga and more. There's a little contention over this one as its a very different beast to the original Alien, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. This is The One About Aliens.

This week on the show we sat down to recover from a road trip across the entire country with a comic that we've been dying to get into for years. Its dark, but hey we had fun. This is The One About Sweet Tooth.

This week on the show we have our first show without Jordan, but his spirit lives on with his final pick of the month. There's way too much comedy to be contained, rockin' tunes and an inexplicable amount of cameos and star power in this bad boy. This is The One About Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny.

This week on the show is the end of an era.

This week on the show we did a special episode where we commentated over some gameplay of rocket league. Jordan can do what he wants this month and so here we are. You can catch the full video podcast on youtube but we hope you enjoy the audio version too! This is The One About Rocket League!

This week begins Jordan's month of picks and he wants to start out with a chat to catch up with the boys and shoot the stuff. Why not? This is The One About After Dark yet again.

This week we end 80s month with wolves, surfing, tunes, 20 questions and more! I hate to see the 80s go again, but all things come to an end, even if SOMEONE doesn't appreciate the end that we get. This is The One About Teen Wolf.

This week on the show I decided to screw with my friends by picking a film that while appropriate for 80's month, totally iconic and seminal to the 80's experience as a whole, is...not so great. This is not what I meant when I said these were 4 of my favorite 80's films and still we managed to enjoy our time with it...well, most of us. This is The One About Flashdance.

This week on the show we explore what is maybe the greatest and most beloved and lasting teenage comedies ever made. This is 80s month but this movie transcends the 80s and every other decade as a perpetual classic of cinema. This is The One About Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

This week on the show we begin 80s month with a weird one, but one of the most beloved fantasy films of the 80s if not of all time. Starring David Bowie, his crotch piece, and magic balls. This is The One About Labyrinth.

This week on the show we look at Mortal Kombat (2021) to finish out John's month of picks. This is a long one as there's more than one heated discussion about the content of this bad boy. There are changes to the source material to be found around every corner, comedy, serious drama, and absurd violence. This is The One About Mortal Kombat.

This week on the show we explore Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order finally to the joy of Jordan and another Mortal Kombat movie to everyone's joy and misery. There's bad CG, jokes, editing errors and a great time to be had for about 2 hours in this movie and we loved every minute of it...that we paid attention to and actually watched...THIS is The One About Mortal Kombat: Annihilation. 

This week on the show we begin our journey to the newest Mortal Kombat film.  In order to do this we started with the original and quite possibly the best video game movie ever made. There's laughs, there's fatalities, there's totally inconsistent world-building!! and THIS is The One About Mortal Kombat.

This week on the show we continue John's month of picks with a meaty graphic novel that hits some dark themes, topics and places in our very souls. This is The One About From hell

This week on the show begins John's month of picks and he starts with a "classic" film starring Jean-Claude Van Damme.  Dean isn't having any of it, and the others...well, its a conversation all right. Get ready for an entire month of this s- kind of amazing content directly from the mind of John and with stories to back it up! This is The One About The Quest.

On this episode of the show we completely lost the plot. Be prepared for a tangent unlike any we have had so far! This is the One About After Dark.

This week on the show we talk about perfect birthdays, grown-up purchases, men's underwear, and more! It's time for another round table discussion where anything can happen and all topics are possible! This one isn't short on off the wall topics or laughs so don't miss it! This is The One About Roundtable.

On this episode of the show Jordan finally gets his wish, John overachieves for once and Dean is left feeling like the kid who didn't do his homework and is trying to duck the class discussion. This is The One About Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin -Activation-

This week on the show we continue the month of Jordan and explore what is probably the newest piece we have looked at on the show.  Unfortunately, Jordan struck coal for a second time and we're reconsidering this little experiment at the door. However, as usual laughs are had both during and after this one. This is The One About Coming 2 America.

This week on the show is the first of the Month of Jordan. Jordan picked all the topics this month and started with a banger...that none of us were really ready for. There's laughs, love, pain, Turt!  But is Delilah really on your side?! This is The One About Firewatch.

This week on the show was a little weird, we're all a bit tired and delays abounded. However, as always we got this show out to you on time and had a nice conversation...well, most of us about the depth and feels that were brought along with the comics medium. This is The One About The Sculptor!

This week on the show we shame Jordan for the slacker that he is. 

This week on the show we return to our freeform discussions, sadly without John as he could not make the show. However, we trudge on and survive the heartache. We talk about fears, loves, and food. This is the One About After Dark!

This week on the show we tackle what is no doubt the most hard-hitting and deeply personal topic we've looked at so far. There's talk about major issues, PTSD, grief, familial and social issues, and more. We don't agree about everything as usual but there are real looks into what this movie has to offer and our feelings on that. Also, Jordan shows how black his heart really is. This is The One About Reign Over Me.

This week on the show we revisit the world of video games with a game that many consider to be one of the greatest games ever made. Originally released in 2005 we pick this bad boy up 15 years later with the PS4 remake and have a lot of thoughts about what the game does right, what it does wrong, and how right and wrong we each are about the game itself!  John had a shocking revelation about his time with the game, secrets are revealed and many laughs are had while we vent some frustrations. This is The One About Shadow of the Colossus.

This week on the show we explore only our second comic on the show.  This one much like the first is an impactful character piece chosen to get right to Jordan's cold frost bitten heart and maybe we succeeded...This is The One About I Kill Giants.

This week on the show we're ringing in the new year and sending off 2020 with a movie that's close to many people's hearts and with the positivity that only a real hero can bring. There's a lot of disagreement back and forth and concern over the sanity of the other hosts on this episode. Of course, we open with a bit of Rocket League chat and other silliness. This is The One About Spider-Man

This week on the show we gathered up the guys to reflect on 2020, talk about anime, torture Jordan, discover deep dark truths about why John hates the Christmas spirit, and generally reflect back on the year, the show, and our lives of late. There are moving moments, joy, sorrow and laughter abound. This is our season finale. This is the One About Roundtable #3.

This week on the show we watch what is arguably the greatest Christmas film ever made. It's a perennial classic, even though it was a huge box office bomb. We talk about D&D, LEGO, and one truly amazing crow. I watch this movie ever year for Christmas and maybe after this episode the other guys will too. This is The One About It's A Wonderful Life.

This week on the show we kick off our festive celebration with a very ONE ABOUT type of Christmas movie. We couldn't kick off the run towards the end of the year and Christmas in any other way. Only one of us disagreed and we bet you won't figure out which of us it was! There's seasonal cheer, there's sharks, there's lies and action. Our pal nubby the elf makes an appearance and ultimately we watched one of the greatest Christmas movies of all time! This is The One About Santa Jaws.

This week on the show we discuss the film adaptation of one of Dean's all time favorite books. There's some big brain talk about wether the concept is possible, when it could happen and what it means for us all. There's also a decent amount of disagreement about the quality of the movie, and Dean tries his best to not be the "the book is better because" guy. All that and more this week! This is The One About Ready Player One.

This week on the show we watched Jordan's favorite movie of all time. Better than Thankskilling, better than Dragon Ball Evolution, even better than Velocipastor. We laughed, we cried and we were deeply moved by this film, the second in a quadrilogy of films that we will almost certainly never go back and watch the rest of. Please excuse the poor audio quality as there were some recording issues, but since we never miss an episode, THIS is The One About Mega Shark vs Crocosaurus.

On this episode of the show we discuss one of the greatest and most classic thanksgiving films ever created. We laughed, we cringed, we wondered what the hell we've been doing with our lives that have led us down this dark path that culminated in this episode and ponder what we can do to fix it. There's also an unnecessarily long discussion about One Piece, because, well, it's great. This is The One About Thankskilling.

On this episode of the show we sat down to discuss one of the worst movies of all time with almost no disagreement whatsoever for the first time ever. There's some chat about John and myself's experience with the PS5 a bit of jealousy from Jordan and man are there Promethean orbs all over the place! All that and more, this is The One About Dragon Ball Evolution.

This week we got together for the second of our one about roundtable discussions. We talk about life, love, games and burgers and man...so much more! Don't miss this episode as it may be our best yet! This is the One About Roundtable #2!
