It is always, always a big episode when a new Martin Scorsese movie comes out. We dig deep on the director's 30th feature, "Killers of the Flower Moon," out in theaters.

It's Taylor Swift Day, but hey, isn't every day? We do a deep dive on "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour," really from every angle we can. It's quite a movie!

It's basically Taylor Swift Eve on the podcast, and in the movie world, but we've got three new movies to discuss. First, it's David Gordon Green's NEXT horror direct sequel, "The Exorcist: Believer." Then it's Kitty Green's "The Assistant" followup, "The Royal Hotel."

We're a day late on this episode, but it's well worth: Lots of fun movies to dig into. First, it's the star-studded "financial" comedy "Dumb Money." Then it's Gareth Edwards' sci fi actioner "The Creator." But the real treat? Wes Anderson's Roald Dahl shorts, which are hidden on Netflix but which you should absolutely go watch right now.

We have never talked about "Stop Making Sense" on this podcast, which happens to be one of the favorite movies of all time for both of our hosts. So we go deep on that, with the new re-release, which you must see. We then do something entirely different by discussing "Expend4bles," which is just a hilarious title. Speaking of hilarious (and offensive, like "Expend4bles") we reboot the Trey Parker puppet terrorism comedy "Team America: World Police."   Timestamps: 21:22: "Stop Making Sense" 1:00:11 "Expend4bles" 1:29:02 "Team America: World Police" Thanks to Dylan Mayer and My Friend Mary, both of which are wonderful, for the music.

Ari Aster made a big three-hour movie about being scared of his mom. What do we think of it? We disagree on "Beau Is Afraid." But that's just the start. We also dig into the horror reboot/sequel "Evil Dead Rise" and the Apple TV action comedy "Ghosted."

Hey, a Nicolas Cage movie! Where he plays Dracula! Sounds awesome ... but maybe not so much in practice. We also discuss the hospital documentary "De Humani Corporis Fabrica." But the real superfun comes from a discussion of the great Jonathan Demme movie, "Something Wild." Look, an '80s comedy we love!
