DYW BONUS Episode! S02E02: Obsession 2026
<p>DYW BONUS Episode! S02E02: Obsession 2026</p><p>Curry Barker's feature debut Obsession (2026) lands the rarest kind of episode for Dad, You're Wrong: the one where Eric and Josh agree on everything. Both hosts walked in blind. Both walked out with the same call. Both have it as their number one film of the year so far.</p><p></p><p>This is a one million dollar monkey's paw cautionary tale starring Michael Johnston as Bear, a shy music store clerk with a years-long crush, and Indy Navarrette as Nikki, the childhood friend on the receiving end of one very ill-advised wish. Eric and Josh dig into Barker's restraint as a craftsman, the way he holds back just enough to keep the suspense alive when most modern horror is busy shocking or jump-scaring. They make the case for Indy Navarrette's performance as the horror Oscar of the year. They place Bear in the lineage of detestable modern leading men, alongside Companion's Jack Quaid and Holcomb's Adam Scott, and explain why he tops them both. And they trace the influences running through the film, from Sam Raimi to It Follows to Lost Highway.</p><p></p><p></p><p>Eric's rating: Watch in Theater. Twice, if you can swing it.</p><p>Josh's rating: Watch in Theater.</p><p></p><p>This is the kind of episode the hosts have been waiting for. Go see the movie. Then come back and tell them they're wrong.</p>

EPU BONUS EPISODE! DYW S02E01 'Undertone'
<p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://RSS.COM"><strong>Thought we'd share an episode of DYW with those interested! Enjoy! </strong></a></p><p>DAD, YOU'RE WRONG - S02E01: "A24, DO YOU HAVE MOMMY ISSUES?"</p><p>Dad, You're Wrong is back for 2026, and Eric and Josh couldn't have picked a more fitting film to kick things off.</p><p>Undertone is a film about a paranormal podcaster who probably should have stopped listening after the first audio file. It is ninety-three minutes of exceptional sound design, one remarkable performance, slow camera work that borrows heavily from the right toolboxes, and a script that Eric and Josh land in very different places on.</p><p>Josh walked out wanting to watch it again that same day. Eric checked his phone three or four times.</p><p>They dig into the analog versus digital horror debate, the Skinamarink and Iron Lung comparisons, the unreliable narrator theory that might explain everything, the threads that never get tied, and why the sound design is either the whole movie or the problem with the movie depending on who you ask. Josh makes the most coherent case for the ending either of them has heard. Eric almost agrees.</p><p>VHS Vault: Josh finds a Sundance screener of Darren Aronofsky's Pi (1998) at a thrift store in Pilsen. It connects to this episode more than you might expect.</p><p>Plus: what is coming next, why trepanning came up, and the question this film kept making Eric ask about A24's recent output.</p><p>Eric's Rating: VOD Josh's Rating: Theater</p>

Episode 19: Rewatch Revelations - 'The Girl or The World'
<p>EPISODE 19: "Rewatch Revelations Nine"</p><p>Welcome back to E Pluribus Unum, the podcast where we deep dive into the hive mind. Season one is finished. Rewatch Revelations is finished. And this final episode delivers the theory that might change how you see everything Manousos has been building toward.</p><p>Eric and Josh close out their second pass at Episode 19, "The World or the Girl" - and the cold open alone opens a can of worms. What does the goat left behind tell us about whether the Joined actually lie? Why does Zosia's terror of Manousos feel like something more than knowing his past? And is the box in Carol's driveway an atom bomb - or an EMP?</p><p>We break down: Josh's noise-canceling frequency theory backed by a Vince Gilligan interview, malicious empathy as the defining framework for the Joined's behavior, and the color vocabulary working overtime through the honeymoon sequence. Plus: a major announcement about the EPU Companion Book - and what listeners of this show get when it drops.</p><p>Thank you for riding the whole season with us.</p><p>New episodes return with Season 2.</p><p>Produced by Brainstormer Studios.</p>
