Episode 30 - Alex is back-ish
Alex is back this week and the episode is nothing short of
explosive. Not like toe curling, eyes rolling back in your head
explosive, but literal explosions. Alex’s new digs come with some
unexpected side effects and the guys have a good laugh about
it.
The guys start off with their streaming picks this week. Opie
starts it off with a review of the Larry David joint, Clear History
on HBO. As per the usual, he picked something of quality that he
would recommend to everyone.
Next up, Kevin goes to Netflix and watches two things. First
off, he takes a stumble down memory lane with El Camino, the
Breaking Bad follow up film. He also watched the first episode of
The Politician, the latest from show runner Ryan Murphy.
Uncharacteristically, both shows get a recommendation from Kevin
this week!
Next, we join Alex in LA via Skype and he gives us a slight
mixed review of the Joaquin Phoenix film, The Sisters Brothers.
With it co-starring John C Reilly, it has to be a comedy, right?
Right?!? Listen and find out, but it does come away with a
recommendation from Alex
Over on Amazon Prime, Pete watches The Image Revolution. After
a quick hazing over the name, he quickly wins over the gang by
appealing to their deep nerd roots. And in some form of miracle,
the gang agrees that Pete made a solid pick for once. On top of
that, the entire gang finished a week where they can all recommend
what they watched!
After the break, the guys discuss a handful of recent movie
trailers: The Jungle Cruise, Onward, and Dolittle. The reviews are
a little mixed with varying degrees of interest. After that, the
guys, with Alex back, take one last run at The Room by discussing
the film, The Disaster Artist. During this discussion, we finally
find Alex coming around to the appeal of the original film. All in
all, this night was a BLAST. That pun will really make sense if you
just listen to the show. Really…
