This week we're talking about our favorite Netflix original series! They alive, dammit!

This week Andrew and Ted discuss the Netflix original Comedy / Romance feature "Ladies First", starring Sacha Baron Cohen and Rosamund Pike. Damien (Cohen) is an advertising executive left to think quick on his feet when one of their biggest clients is considering pulling their business because they just didn't think that the male only executives at the ad agency could come up with a campaign that targets women. Damien says that's not true because they just appointed a woman as "Creative Director", which they had not. When faced with this announcement Damien calls the office and randomly promotes Alex (Pike) to the position as merely a facade. A bump on the head leaves Damien believing that roles within not only the agency but his sphere have him believing that women now rule the world and his office. Alex and Damien have literally reversed roles at the agency and Damien searches for a way to return his world back to what it was before he bumped his head. Along the way Damien learns what its like to be woman in the workplace.

This week Andrew and Ted sit down to discuss this "family style / heart warming" drama, starring Sally Field and Lewis Pullman. Tova (Field) is not only a widow but has also lost her only child.

When his van breaks down Cameron, who has not a penny to his name, seeks work to pay for the repairs. Tova has an accident that puts her on the injured reserve list and Cameron fills in for her at the aquarium.

In this Flix and Giggles breakdown, Basil and Keo explore the "really dark" heart of this espionage thriller.We're discussing how the film prioritizes psychological stakes over physical ones, and why the narrative was strong enough to keep us hooked for the full two hours, even if we still think a 90-minute cut would have been lethal. From the interesting world-building to the bleakness of the final act, we're explaining why Humint is a must watch for fans of gritty storytelling.

It's time for your favorite Zombie Movie Podcast, better known as Dead Man Still Walking — typically a solocast starring the inimitable Dr. Walking Dead Kyle Bishop! During this 59th edition of DMSW, Dr. Bishop is recording from inside a tent (in the late summer of 2025), participating in Girls' Camp! Hey, even if he's not the fastest or cleverest girl at Girls' Camp, he's always the prettiest! Nah, our dear professor is just a great dad and a salt-of-the-Earth individual who selflessly volunteers to chaperone and volunteer as "Bear Bait," in case the young teens are attacked in the wilderness of Utah. Kyle is so cool, he essentially recreates a "Dead Serious Horror Challenge" from the old HMP days and watches scary movies at night in his tent, movies that also occur out in the wilderness. Anywho, here in Dead Man Still Walking, Dr. Kyle William Bishop reviews a Netflix Original, Action Martial Arts / Science Fiction / Zombie flick from Thailand called Ziam (2025) — as in "Zombie Siam" or "Ziam." But using his technical definition, Dr. Bishop would not call "Ziam" much of a Horror movie, despite its zombie monsters because it has hardly any suspense or tension. It is mostly Action (with an empowered protagonist), which is not conducive to promoting fear within viewers. Even so, it's fun to hear Dr. Bishop talk about watching this film during his camping adventures. Listen! Note: This episode was recorded in August 2025. Also, to view ALL of Dr. Bishop's Dead Man Still Walking solocast episodes can USE THIS LINK. And to view ALL of Dr. Bishop's episode-by-episode commentaries on The Last of Us – Seasons 1 and 2, with Jay of the Dead, then USE THIS LINK. Dead Man Still Walking is a biweekly, short-form solocast hosted by Dr. Walking Dead Kyle Bishop, author of American Zombie Gothic and How Zombies Conquered Popular Culture. Dr. Walking Dead also presents a popular segment called The Dead Zone on regular episodes of this podcast. For his Dead Man Still Walking solocast episodes, Dr. Bishop will focus exclusively on zombie films, with the occasional exploration of zombie-related themes, zombie television, and other zombie media (e.g., comics, literature, etc.). Dr. Bishop is an academic and professional scholar of zombie films and other zombie narratives. He has been teaching for 23 years.

PBS's INDEPENDENT LENS, the film follows a courageous network of besieged librarians as they unite to examine how book restriction policies are shaping library collections. “The Librarians” takes viewers from Texas to Florida and beyond, where local libraries have become unexpected battlegrounds in a national struggle over parental control, intellectual freedom, and democracy itself. Sparked by the controversial “Krause List” in Texas, which targets 850 books centered on race and LGBTQIA+ stories, the film takes a deep investigative dive into the escalating movement against book banning. The film captures the courage and resilience of the everyday heroes, librarians, as well as concerned parents and students flanking them, who have become first responders in the fight for the freedom to read, standing defiantly against censorship at all costs.Director/Producer Kim A.

In this episode of Behind The Geeks, we sit down with director Alex Woo to talk about his new Netflix animated film In Your Dreams. Alex opens up about how leaving Pixar to launch Kuku Studios shaped the kind of stories he wanted to tell, the creative choices behind the film's distinctive visual style, and how revisiting childhood memories became a surprisingly cathartic part of the creative process. From whimsical dream worlds to deeply heartfelt themes about siblings, family, and emotional resilience, In Your Dreams blends big imagination with honest, grounded storytelling — and Alex shares how those personal experiences informed the film's emotional core. In Your Dreams hits Netflix on November 14 http://www.netflix.com/InYourDreams Watch our Interview with Alex Woo on YouTube Here  Check out Geekcentric onYouTube | Instagram | Twitter | TikTokJoin the Geekcentric Discord HEREFollow Eatcentric - Same geeks.

Send us a textWelcome back to DMRThis week, we break down Happy Gilmore 2 exclusive to Netflix—a sequel decades in the making that's equal parts nostalgic tribute and overstuffed spectacle. While it brings back familiar faces and some laugh-out-loud moments, the film often feels more focused on cameos than character. Longtime fans may enjoy the nods to the original, but newcomers might be left wondering what all the fuss is about.We explore whether the movie captures the heart and chaos of the 1996 classic, or if it plays too safe with recycled gags and modern distractions. Does it earn its place in the Sandler legacy—or just ride the wave of nostalgia? Tune in for our mostly spoiler-free take on the hits, the misses, and where this sequel lands in the comedy hall of fame.Enjoy - DMRSupport the showThe audio clips used in this podcast, including excerpts from movie/series/documentary trailers, are used under the principles of fair use and fair dealing for the purpose of criticism, commentary, and review.
