Listen to us REFLECT on it, and you may SEE DOUBLE of one of the ratings, but what is the rating? And who gave it? A true mystery that can only be solved by listening to this episode!

Tolkien... but TERRIBLE!? Khraneteli (1991 Soviet Lord of the Rings) Review [Ep 70]
This week we review the... movie(??) Khraniteli (Хранители), aka USSR Lord of the Rings. Broadcast just once in 1991 by Leningrad Television, this masterpiece was thought to be lost media until some lovely person just went and found it didn't they? So yeah, low budget Soviet Lord of the Rings. Oh boy. Well technically it's just The Fellowship of the Ring. Hard to spoil really because everything gets set up then never paid off. In other news Tolkien is turning in his grave. IT HAS TOM BOMBADIL THOUGH!!!!!

Is DAFT PUNK's Electroma an Underrated MASTERPIECE? | No Spoilers Review + Deep Dive [Ep 69]
It's been 3 years since Daft Punk announced their split with their infamous Epilogue video. But did you know it's just a clip from a feature length avant-garde scifi movie the band released in 2007? Sure, but you didn't know that it doesn't feature a single Daft Punk track right? Ah but did you know Thomas Bangalter read 500 issues of American Cinematographer to prepare for directing it? Ok ok, but you definitely didn't know that Daft Punk rhymes with "shaft monk" and "laughed drunk" right? Yep thought so. Well you've got some catching up to do - just watch the bloody episode you cretin.
