On September 16, 2025, the world of entertainment lost a legend: Charles Robert Redford Jr. We all knew him simply as Robert Redford. An actor, director, and producer. A man who would start the Sundance Institute that would eventually launch a film festival in a little town of Park City, Utah that would change the filmmaking landscape for decades, and still does today. Corey and Freddy talk about the man, who was part of our lives in such a way and for so long, we felt like we knew him. We speak to the movies that moved us whether in front of the camera or behind it, to the unheard voices he raised through the Sundance Film Festival, that would launch the careers of today's household names like Steven Soderbergh and Quentin Tarantino. We hope you enjoy the all-too-brief chat about a man who made the difference with so many of our lives in our business.

We start off our "Oops! All TV" episodes with a look at that time George Lucas made a prequel to one of his beloved franchises with a child actor yelling things like "yippee" and a lot of really racist stereotypes that were bad even in the 90s. No, not Phantom Menace, we already did that one! This is Young Indiana Jones.The subject of this episode contains depictions of racist caricatures of Middle Eastern and African people, child abduction and enslavement, the use of brown face, and general islamaphobia, orientalism, and british imperialism, and our discussion of the subject will touch on these themes.

From IMDB: A mysterious game invades a man's ordered existence. Alternate Ending

We are back with our first movie episode in over SIX MONTHS, and we're doing it with a doozy. The next five movies are all David Fincher-helmed, and we're starting with the one that cracked the egg: SE7EN with Morgan Freeman, Brad Pitt, Gwyneth Paltrow, and John Doe. From IMDB: Two detectives, a rookie and a veteran, hunt a serial killer who uses the seven deadly sins as his motives. ENJOY!
