Dec 4, 2019
The Thanksgiving holiday presented a pair of
challenges for the guys. We needed a new place record this week and
Alex was stuck in traffic at the Grapevine. Thankfully, our
previous mystery guest, David, was able to step up on both counts.
His garage was a great space for recording and stepped in for Alex
this week with no prep and filled the role to perfection.
Jumping in to their streaming picks, Opie took this
opportunity to not watch anything on Hulu… He does get deeper into
The Morning Show on AppleTV+ and also watches the first few
episodes of See and thoroughly enjoys that, also. Over on Disney+
he also squeezes in the first episode of The World According to
Jeff Goldblum.
Pete had Netflix this week and watched, well, just
about everything. He watched the entire season of Merry Happy
Whatever, which Kevin also watched some of. They had differing
opinions, so have a listen to see where they fall. He also caught
the new animated Christmas feature Klaus. He also took in the
documentary series’ The Toys That Made Us and The Movies That Made
Us. After all that, he also managed to also watch Shazaam on
HBO.
Kevin took to HBO and watched the first few episodes
of His Dark Materials. He talks about it briefly, likening it to a
kids version of Game of Thrones. He also took his turn on AppleTV+
and watched the new M. Night Shyamalan series, Servant.
Alex was assigned his favorite service, Amazon
Prime, this week, but since he was unable to participate, David had
free license to review anything he wanted (because the guys are
usually so good at following the rules). He watched Stumptown,
which Pete and Kevin had watched before so they got to run through
that again with a fresh set of eyes. He also watched the Netflix
series Daybreak. He describes it as a teen comedy/drama in the vein
of MadMax in high school.
After the break, the guys get all Christmas on your
a$$es!! The guys throw down some of their favorite Christmas movies
of all time. They also take the time to discuss movies that may or
may not be Christmas movies, the most famous of which is Die Hard.
Listening to this episode should help all listeners build a
definitive Christmas movie list for the rest of the holidays. Merry
Effing Christmas!
