There was a lot to love about the finale, and many questions remain unanswered, such as what will happen to Chris, what the deal is with that creepy alien, and how the bands Nelson and Steel Panther featured so prominently in the finale. We have all the details for you this week. A trip to the Trailer Park looks at a range of trailers, including Die My Love, the latest from Timothée Chalamet, in Marty Supreme, a trailer for the MCU's Wonder Man that left the guys wanting more, a new Game of Thrones series, and, of course, the Nerds' impressions of the official trailer for The Witcher Season 4.

Frank and Jen break down Peacemaker Season 2, Episode 4, from the wild Michael Rooker cameo to that portable-dimension device that might not be what it seems. They dig into the alternate Earth, what it reveals about Chris, Keith, and Auggie, and why Adebayo might be the real center of the 11th Street Kids. The conversation hits possible DCU ties like Creature Commandos, Mr. Terrific, Blue Beetle, and whether the “boom tube” theory holds water. Plus, a thoughtful look at Harcourt's arc, Argus pressure, and how the show balances crude humor with real character growth. CA Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Welcome and coffee-fueled kickoff 00:24 First impressions of Episode 4 and the “family affair” watch 04:27 The portable dimension and how Auggie really got his tech 05:21 Series shift: Argus pressure, new location, and a relentless hunter 05:55 Michael Rooker goes all-in as an eagle tracker 08:14 “X-rated corner of the DCU” and the opening flashback read 09:49 Keith's role as heart vs. Auggie's shadow 13:16 Is the portal a boom tube or something new 16:29 Creature Commandos, Corto Maltese nods, and DCU connective tissue 19:38 Cameo watch: Mr. Terrific, Frankenstein, the Bride, or Weasel 24:26 Waller's name-drops and why she might show up 26:27 The coded “perfect world” that's not perfect at all 29:18 Adebayo as the team's glue and Chris's reality check 34:20 Harcourt and Rick Flag Sr. show a different side of both 35:58 Age, casting, and why Flag Sr. reads more “father-in-law” than “dad” 39:20 Why peacemaker is the easy scapegoat for a grieving Flag Sr. 40:07 Where this could go: reluctant father figure and hard choices 41:11 Enchantress, Rick romance, and what that means for Harcourt and Chris 42:15 Final cameo predictions and the Blue Beetle/Ted Kord angle 44:44 What if Dave Bautista played Peacemaker 47:44 James Gunn, Michael Rooker, and that dance 48:43 Guest plugs: Distance Nerding shows and Lego giveaway Key Takeaways Episode 4 plants a big flag for the back half of the season by moving the fight to a controllable space and tightening the Argus noose. The portal tech reframes Auggie's “genius” and hints at a broader toolkit that could connect to other DC corners. The alternate Earth isn't aspirational. It puts Chris's growth in focus and undercuts his nostalgia for a world he's better off without. Adebayo is the emotional center and likely leader in practice. She's the person everyone calls, and the one who grounds Chris. Harcourt's conversation with Rick Flag Sr. shows who she was before the walls went up, and why Argus keeps pulling her back. Expect a meaningful cameo tied to portals or Argus operations. Mr. Terrific, Waller, or a Creature Commandos face are all in play. The show keeps mixing crude laughs with character work that lands, which is why the heavier scenes hit. Quotes “Peacemaker is the X-rated corner of the DCU.” — Jen “This episode felt like a gear shift. Argus is coming, and the portal changes the board.” — Frank “Adebayo is the glue. She keeps everyone honest and points them back to reality.” — Frank “They didn't show that flashback for nothing. One choice can change a universe.” — Jen “Rooker only does that scene because Gunn is the one on the other end of the phone.” — Frank Call to Action If you dug this breakdown, subscribe and drop a quick review.

Also note, there's an alternate dimension Hanoi Roxx teased at the end.-“Guestlist” by Hardcore SuperstarAfter a fight with Emilia Harcourt (Jennifer Holland), Chris heads back to his place for a night of hard drugs and bisexual orgies, while this song kicks in.-“Dreamer” by Foxy ShazamCompletely wasted from the party, Peacemaker stumbles through the QUC and heads to DC2, wandering in wonder around the house he shares with his “dad” and “brother,” while yet another Foxy Shazam song plays.-“Blue Jeans” by SilvertideHarcourt also isn't doing great, so she heads to the biker barGabriel's Horn. As she walks in, this is playing, presumably on the jukebox. The song continues to play as she beats the crap out of pretty much everyone in the bar.-“Outrage” by Sister SinRight after being discovered by the DC2 version of Peacemaker, our Chris accidentally kills him in the QUC… And as we cut to the end credits, this song plays. Episode 2:-Evil Thoughts” by Foxy ShazamThis song begins playing as Peacemaker and Vigilante (Freddie Stroma) take out tools to dismember the DC2 version of Peacemaker that our Peacemaker accidentally killed last episode. It continues throughout the montage as they chop him up and dispose of the body parts by using the kyphotic alien's incinerator.-“Reapercussion” by The Cruel IntentionsWhile Fleury (Tim Meadows) is told to hold and watch Chris by Sacha Bordeaux (Sol Rodríguez), ARGUS assembles a team of operatives anyway to take Peacemaker down. We meet this ragtag squad to the song noted above.-“Dirty Money” by Ida MariaAfter absolutely obliterating Fleury's team, Eagly does a slo-mo victory walk to this song. That transitions into another montage, this time the “11th Street Kids,” aka the remaining team from Season 1, partying on Harcourt's rooftop. The song continues to play as we watch the team bond and chat at the party.-“This Time It's Love” by D'MollsBack at the party, Peacemaker and Harcourt have a heart-to-heart while this song plays.-“We Don't Need A Cure” by Hardcore SuperstarPeacemaker, drunk and sad, heads back to the DC2 after trying to text that Earth's version of Harcourt from the Peacemaker's phone (the one our Peacemaker incinerated). Once he gets to DC2 the text goes through, and he starts texting with the alt-Harcourt, while this song plays, leading us into the closing credits.
Jordan and Chris are back to discuss the second episode of the second season of Peacemaker. They share their thoughts on the character driven episode that reunites the 11th Street Kids, the introduction of Langston Fleury (played by Tim Meadows) and Eagly saving the day.

The third episode of *Alien: Earth* delves into the enigmatic motivations of Mr. Morrow and the clandestine agendas of Prodigy. We explore the implications of Mr. Morrow's true purpose, revealing a complex web of intrigue that intertwines with the overarching narrative of the series. Additionally, we examine the inaugural episode of *Peacemaker* Season 2, where the character's introduction to the rebranded Justice Gang signifies a significant retcon orchestrated by James Gunn. The shift from the Justice League to the Justice Gang not only alters the landscape of the DC Universe but also sets a tone for the evolving dynamics between these characters. As we analyze these developments, we invite listeners to contemplate the intricate relationships and thematic elements that drive these narratives forward.

Join us for the deep dive, hot takes, and laughs only Blerd's Eyeview can deliver!The third episode of Alien: Earth delves into the intricate dynamics of the characters' motivations and their entangled fates. As Wendy embarks on a harrowing journey to locate her abducted brother, the narrative explores themes of fear, resilience, and the psychological toll of survival in a world fraught with existential threats. The xenomorph, a harbinger of terror, not only represents a physical adversary but also serves as a metaphor for the internal struggles faced by the characters. The episode artfully juxtaposes Wendy's pursuit with the machinations of Mr. Morrow and his clandestine organization, Prodigy, hinting at a broader conspiracy that intertwines with the personal stakes of the characters.

Episode Summary Frank breaks down the Season 2 premiere of Peacemaker with a clear eye on tone, pacing, and character arcs. He digs into how the show turns a once unlikable lead into someone worth rooting for, why the loneliness under the jokes hits harder this year, and how the new multiverse twist sets up real emotional stakes. You will hear thoughts on the Justice Gang cameo, the revamped intro, and the visual style of the folding door chamber. There is praise for John Cena's performance, predictions for where the 11th Street Kids are headed, and a quick show update while Thomas focuses on family. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Welcome and show update for Challenge Accepted 00:52 What to expect while Thomas is on dad duty and how the show will roll 01:29 Spoiler alert and the review plan for this episode 02:06 Tone and pacing compared to Season 1 02:59 Why Peacemaker is now easy to root for 03:44 Loneliness balanced with humor and how the show pulls it off 04:34 Justice Gang interview gag with Maxwell Lord, Hawkgirl, and Guy Gardner 06:16 Harcourt at the bar and what that fight says about her headspace 07:04 Faster cross cutting and more time with the full crew 07:49 The 99 doors concept and Chris seeing Keith again 10:24 Reading the alt world and the darker subtext behind it 11:29 John Cena's quiet beats and why they land 12:06 Adebayo with Chris and Economos watching for Rick Flag Sr 13:33 Vigilante and Economos calls and why they still click 14:17 New intro song and dance and why it works 15:11 Folding chamber visuals and how the world multiplies 15:50 Justice Gang line up and a clean DCU reset inside the recap 18:13 Big moments to watch and a look ahead at the multiverse thread 19:27 Final thoughts and excitement for the season Key Takeaways Peacemaker's path from jerk to vulnerable lead keeps paying off because the show lets humor sit on top of real hurt. Season 2 spreads focus across the team which helps flesh out Harcourt, Adebayo, Economos, and Vigilante. The 99 doors device is more than a visual trick. It puts Chris face to face with the life he wished he had and tests his growth. Harcourt's bar scene shows a trained fighter chasing pain to feel anything at all. The Justice Gang cameo quietly resets the DCU context without getting lost in lore. John Cena's small moments carry as much weight as the big jokes. Expect a reckoning with Rick Flag Sr and a deeper look at guilt, forgiveness, and chosen family. Quotes “It is amazing how DC took a character like Peacemaker and now I am rooting for him in every way.” “These outsiders are going to reunite again.” “There are 99 doors in this folding chamber and each one asks who Chris wants to be.” “Sometimes we do not need to make it complicated. The reset is right there in front of us.” “John Cena is a fantastic actor and the quiet beats prove it.” Call to Action If you enjoyed this episode, follow the show, tap subscribe, and leave a rating and review.

River Phoenix was a once-in-a-generation talent. In the 1980s, a decade known for artifice and excess, he brought raw acting chops to performances in Stand by Me, Running on Empty, and My Own Private Idaho. His career was only just getting started when he died tragically at the age of 23 outside a notorious nightclub in Hollywood. The story of his short life is as complicated and dramatic as one of his signature roles, and includes brushes with religious cults, skinheads, street hustlers, and L.A.'s drug underworld. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including child sexual abuse and sex trafficking.

Ep 465 - Seeing Street Kids' Potential Guest: Krista Thompson By Stuart McNish “The reasons why children end up on the streets are complex. Often, their arrival represents an active decision on their part in response to serious rights violations at home,” says Moses Ogutu in “Under The Bridge: The Invisible Lives of Street Children.” Ogutu was a child of the street for five years. Today, he is an international business and trade lecturer at the African Leadership University and a 2017 Mandela Rhodes Scholar. Ogutu's life journey is proof that children who end up on the streets can and do rise above the challenges they face. Ogutu points out that homelessness among youth is a global problem and in each jurisdiction, the reason a child arrives on the street is individual and globally similar. Krista Thompson, the past CEO of Vancouver's Covenant House, agrees. “There are many successful intervention strategies that work to help young people who clearly have smarts and grit and problem-solving abilities to move forward toward a more positive future.” One such strategy is “Relentless Support,” a program that Covenant House offers. We invited Krista Thompson to join us for a Conversation That Matters about ensuring that young people are not forgotten, are visible, and supported to grow, develop, and realize their potential.

Part 3: “Multnomah County Manson”For the past two weeks, I've told you the stories of the Street Kids of Portland that fell prey to the power of The Family- Led by Grant Charboneau and Greg Wilson. They had a hand in the killings of Hal Charbanou, Misty Largo, and Leon Stanton. One of their murderous helpers was James Nelson. While Grant and Greg spent their time behind bars, James finished his, was released, and soon found himself on the streets yet again. Finally, he could fulfill his desire to be the leader of a group of kids. But he would rule with a literal iron fist. When a young girl with disabilities enters the scene, she struggles to follow the rules and soon meets consequences she never imagined and certainly didn't deserve. This is the conclusion of Street Kids- and the Multnomah County Manson family.For photos and sources for today's episode, check out the Murder in the Rain episode blog.

Part 2: “Fantastic Army of the Night”Last week I introduced you to Grant Charboneau, Greg Wilson and the Family of street kids they ruled over. They had their own rules and if they were broken, there would be ramifications. Which was what happened to Misty Largo; a teenage girl who was murdered after a brutal 36 hours of torture, brought on after the family decided she was not abiding. Grant, as XO or the leader of the family, was starting to feel paranoid that his henchman, or hench-boy, 15-year-old Leon might spill about not only Misty, but the violent murder of Hal; Grant's father. So, what would become of Leon? Today, I'll be telling you about the death order put out on Leon and what Grant and Greg faced when the police came knocking.

Part 1: "Rambo Games"Homeless rates have skyrocketed across the country over the last few years. But it isn't anything new. But back in the 1980s there was a new scene brewing in the houseless community- street kids. While many of the street kids of Portland were simply looking for a new home, a new sense of community where they could feel safe away from abusive homes, others were finding opportunities to take leadership positions that would allow them to take control over the kids. Creating “Families'' which differed little from the Manson Family. Today I'll be telling the first part of three surrounding Grant Charboneau, Greg Wilson, James Nelson and how their rule left Jessica Williams, Michelle Largo and Leon Stanton Dead.
