In 2022, one-time BoingBoing.com editor Cory Doctorow coined the term "Enshittification" to describe a phenomenon with which every internet user is intimately familiar. Also referred to as "Platform Decay," enshittification is (according to Wikipedia): "a re-prioritization pattern where online product and service providers experience a decline in quality over time." In other words, That Thing You Like is great at first, and then morphs into a lesser version of itself. Think: apps that de-activate features, websites that install paywalls, DRM *yoinking* a book off of your e-Reader over rights issues, and video games that wedge in ads and microtransactions. Clearly, we can't have nice things. So in this episode of FYF, Saint and Jim take a look at the well-worn idea of "They changed it, now it sucks."
Rising Country Music star Hannah Dasher has got “that thing you like” this week. Get ready to be inspired by her “Godfidence”. Hannah opens up about the impact of bringing her faith into her music, why self-awareness is so important, and how she found her way to walking the path she was truly meant to walk. If you don't know Hannah Dasher, get ready to fall in love. Zac sure has! Hannah is one of my favorite musicians and her recipes on TikTok are sold southern gold. You'll also get to hear part of Hannah's catchy new single “That Thing You Like,” and the incredible story about how Aerosmith's Steven Tyler got her into Justin Timberlake's afterparty. This week: Why I have “That Thing You Like” on repeat What is “Godfidence” The obstacles Hannah overcame to launch her music career How to live authentically and follow your calling Why self-awareness is critical How Hannah expresses her faith in her song, “Ugly Houses” Why Hannah Dasher and AI are on good terms How Hannah got into Justin Timberlake's afterparty Hannah Dasher is an incredible country musician, songwriter, and star of the comedic TikTok sensation “Stand by Your Pan.” She's known for her powerful vocals, witty and honest songwriting, and her infectious energy on stage with a voice that can make you laugh, cry, and everything in between. Hannah has been making waves in the country music scene. This is one of my favorite quotes from this week's episode: "Godfidence" is God given confidence. It's spending time alone with God and being self-aware, knowing who you are, and knowing what you bring to the table. – Hannah Dasher New episodes of The Kim Gravel Show drop every Thursday.

The BON APPETIT brand has been making YouTube videos for years - so why are they taking off now? And why are we helplessly in love with them? In this ep, we celebrate the charming, Springfield-esque nature of the Test Kitchen, talk Bon Appetit's strong blend of personalities, and even do a rarely seen That Thing You Like draft to build our own three person cooking teams! Basically, we love Claire and Brad and Chris and all of them forever. Enjoy the lovefest.

NEW JAPAN PRO WRESTLING just wrapped up NJPW Dominion 2018, and it was a show for the ages, with Kenny Omega and Kazuchika Okada putting on maybe the greatest wrestling match of all time. All of this means one thing: That Thing You Like finally returns to wrestling! Brian's been a NJPW fan for nearly two years, and Chris has seen all of two events, so we talk extensively about how differently New Japan makes us FEEL compares to WWE, and how it recaptures some of the magic of watching wrestling and "not knowing". Plus, Brian shares favourite things about attending two NJPW events live!
GAME OF THRONES shifted into high gear during season 7, and served up a steaming hot plate of action, dragon battles, character twists, and more. So... why did it all feel so flat? We review the plot packed, but a little underwhelming season, talk about Jon and Dany, Tyrion being dumb all of the sudden, and more. Next week is a very special 200TH EPISODE! Send us your questions about That Thing You Like, our thoughts on continuing to make it, and more at @TTYLshow on Twitter!
Great Sci-Fi gives you a frame to think about your own world, and Okja is 100% cut from that cloth. Okja is Bong Joon-Ho's Netflix follow-up to the low-key VOD hit Snowpiercer - and just like Snowpiercer, Okja isn't afraid to get political. This one shook us; the majority of the episode is spent grappling with the moral questions posed by Okja about the consumption of animals in our modern, mass production-focused society. This is our favourite That Thing You Like episode in a long time, and we hope you like it too! Let us know what you think about OKJA on Twitter @TTYLshow!
Brian Shirlaw, from the "That Thing You Like" podcast, comes on the show to watch one of his favorite movies. The Romantic Dramedy HIGH FIDELITY starring John Cusack! It was a wonderful time! Enjoy!
Hugh Jackman and his luscious flowing hair does battle with Dracula, The Wolfman, Mr. Hyde, Igor, a trifecta of hell bitches and Frankenstein....'s monster (if you wanna be a dick about it). This week, Chris Baxter from "That Thing You Like" joins me as we watch a movie that is awful, except for one heroic cow that dared to stand up to vampiric tyranny and inspired us to keep watching the garbagewater film that officially kicked off Summer Movie Season 2004. Enjoy!
We are already two episodes in, and already I have partial regrets about the premise. For the first time in history, a screenwriter had the distinction of having two movies open at No.1 at the Box Office in back to back weeks. That man was James Gunn, and unlike last week's fantastic "Dawn of the Dead", his second No.1 was "Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed" which was king a decade ago. Joining me again is Brian Shirlaw from "That Thing You Like"
It's the first episode of "At the Movies...10 Years Later", and to kick it off we have one of two movies that inspired the entire podcast. Host Jordan Bowman is joined by Brian Shirlaw and Chris Baxter of "That Thing You Like" to discuss Zack Snyder's controversial zombie opus, sleeves, and croquet mallets.
