Maybe we’re joking about the pants, maybe we’re not. This is a waist-up podcast only so you’ll never know for sure.
We do eventually get to some nerdy topics this week, but we’ve got a lot of chatter to get through first. Then we talk Switch 2 backwards compatibility, Elon “cheating” at games, Kraven the Hunter’s weird CGI usage, The Book of the New Sun and we’ve got an update on our fitness pact!
A lot of news about Hollywood jerks this week. For once we’re not the worst people on this podcast. Zack Snyder’s Justice League Joss Whedon sucks The Buffy cast agrees Gina Carano no longer part of Star Wars But there is a new hope… Jamie Lee Curtis joins Borderlands As does Jack Black EA decides Anthems fate

Happy New Year! Vegans can now enjoy the wonders of SPAM, Dan is suitably impressed by his Xbox Series X and we remembered that Brian Dennehey died this year, possibly eaten by Hitler’s alligator. RIP Tanya Roberts Omnipork
Luke’s house might be smart, but is it smart enough to know whether it’s ok to shoot down a drone? If it listens to this week’s episode it might be.

We’re baaaaack! We had a great time hanging out in Paris, now we’re back to hanging out on the internet as usual. Lots to discuss this week, even though we’re not entirely settled into our normal time zones.

If you’ve been thinking that it’s hot outside then we can tell you why! It’s because we’re literally destroying our planet. No not us as in the hosts of this show, us as in the human race. You too? Yes, you too. Oh also we talk about how much we like Joel Kinnaman, Neill Blomkamp and Star Wars. Obi-Wan series coming to Disney +?
