Do you like movies, anime, video games, and just anything pop culture? Me too! That's why I, A. J. Agreste, have decided to blab about it on this podcast. On Just Barely Awake, you can listen to my chronically tired self ramble on and on about my various interests.
Instead of gushing about my favorite things into a void, I'll gush about them into a microphone. And maybe, just maybe, someone out there will enjoy listening to that...for some reason.

The DAVID movie from Angel Studios is finally releasing! It's been a few years since the initial torch and now the film is finally hitting the big screen Dec. 19, 2025. But before the movie's official release, I wanted to share my thoughts and expectations for the film. As well as touch on Angel's marketing strategy for DAVID.
With House of David, King of Kings, Light of the World and now DAVID, this really is the year of faith-based media.

Miraculous Awakening
Miraculous Ladybug got a movie! A movie musical, in fact. And I enjoyed it. A breath of fresh air from the repetitive frustration I got from the TV show.

Nimona
Remember She-Ra and the Princesses of Power? Ugh, I know. But the creator of that wonderful show created Nimona, a 3D film recently released on Netflix. And surprisingly, it isn't that bad.
