Warning: this comedy podcast contains no useful information. That's the whole point.
Andrew and James are not experts in anything, and they're not here to fix that. No life optimization. No morning routines. No takeaways. Just two enthusiastic hosts having a funny conversation and dragging you along for it.
Topics wander freely through movies that deserved better, movies that absolutely did not, decades of television, space and whether any of it means anything, road trips, holidays, the paranormal, puppets, the nature of time, and a rotating cast of subjects that seemed like a good idea when someone hit record. Nothing is too big, too small, or too weird to end up on the agenda.
Come waste some time with us. Take a break from being smart.
Five friends tackle heist movies and immediately agree on one thing: Mission Impossible is terrible. Beyond that, it’s chaos. They defend Jackie Brown’s brilliance, debate whether Snatch is just a Guy Ritchie movie remake, and James drops some knowledge about his take on Las Vegas.
Somewhere between roasting Tom Cruise’s height, arguing Julia Roberts vs. Sandra Bullock, and spiraling into stories about Oregon Trail, they might actually make a compelling case for what makes a heist movie work, or they might just make you laugh too hard to care.

Bush League All-Stars
Andrew and James bring in Billy and Fast Eddy for a full lineup of sports movie talk, and things go sideways almost immediately. What starts as a debate over Kingpin and Foxcatcher turns into an Oakland A’s history lesson, a Tony Gwynn stat that will break your brain, and a surprisingly deep dive into a censored line in Major League that never worked.
Moneyball gets picked apart, Jerry Maguire quotes fly around the room, and somewhere in there the guys land on what has happened to the NBA with load management and tanking. Then it turns into a real conversation about sports betting, in game odds, and how fast that habit can sneak up on you.
This show still doesn’t have a point, but at least this week you’ll learn some trivia.

Mech 54, Where Are You?
Andrew and James are back with a comedy podcast episode that covers a suspicious dad, a Christopher Nolan movie that somehow will be even longer, giant robots with unresolved personal issues, and a government infrastructure project that appears to have been invented on a coffee break.
This is what happens when two people have access to a microphone and no adult supervision. Funny, weird, and completely off the rails, just the way we like it.
