"IT AMOUNTS TO A KIND OF... REBIRTH." It's been four weeks since we last covered any kind of news, and boy oh boy has everything happened since then. From leaks, to awful business decisions, to monumental trailers, it's been a doozy. So, what do the boys have to say about it? Tune in to find out as Alec and Brian talk all the news from the past few weeks, including new looks at AVATAR: AANG - THE LAST AIRBENDER, LANTERNS, DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN, DUNE: PART THREE, and the long-awaited trailer for SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY!

"I'M GONNA SIT RIGHT HERE WITH YOU..." After the emotional and shocking ending of Resident Evil Village, many wondered where the franchise would go next, even more so who it would revolve around. What many did not expect was a pivot back to Raccoon City and the T-Virus through the eyes of newcomer Grace Ashcroft and veteran Leon Kennedy. This entry -- celebrating the series' 30th anniversary -- has already been hailed as a GOTY contender, but what do the boys think? Tune in to find out as Alec and Brian dive into the horror, action, drama, and hilarity of RESIDENT EVIL REQUIEM!

IT STARTS WITH "SORRY." Last November, the four of us gathered around to watch both seasons of one of the most popular adult animated shows currently running. We did not like it. We meant to talk about how we did not like it for the past three months. Also, Evangelion is back. Nothing works out the way you want it to, huh? Oh, well. Tune in as Alec, Brian, Darby, and Trey talk Yoko Taro's new NEON GENESIS EVANGELION series as well as their brutally honest thoughts on HAZBIN HOTEL!

DID YOU MISS US? The boys are back from their longest hiatus yet, and are now tasked with covering two months' worth of news in a reasonable amount of time. God help them. Anywho, tune in as Alec and Brian dive into the biggest pop culture rumblings, including Brainiac's casting, the trailers for DOOMSDAY and SPIDER-NOIR, Sony's latest State of Play, and everything in between!

NOTHING TO SEE HERE. THIS IS ALL MADE UP. Another two weeks apart, another news episode! As we wrap up the year and look to the next one, a lot has dropped in our laps. From movie trailers, to game trailers, to scary-ass corporate mergers, to scary-ass leaks akin to sticks of dynamite, we got a lot to cover. So, tune in as Alec and Brian look back on the biggest December news, including SUPERGIRL, The Game Awards, John Cena's retirement, and definitely-not-trailer-leaks for AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY and SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY!

HONOR DIED ON THE GINGKO TREE. After over five years of waiting -- and the most obvious headache-inducing reactionary grifting -- Sucker Punch's sequel to Ghost of Tsushima has finally released. Atsu's tale of revenge has garnered mass amounts of praise for its characters, gameplay, and open world, but what do we think of it? Tune in to find out as Alec and Brian discuss recent news from the past two weeks as well as their thoughts on PlayStation's new blockbuster -- GHOST OF YŌTEI!

WHERE ARE WE? Oh hey, guys. A month goes by fast doesn't it? You know what doesn't go by fast? All the news we have to sift through. Oh boy oh boy. Tune in as Alec and Brian return from hiatus with yet another news episode covering all the big things from the past month, including THE HUNT FOR BEN SOLO, the return of DOCTOR WHO, Brainiac in MAN OF TOMORROW, and more!

OVERMEDICATED! We struggled for theming on this one beyond yet another news episode. We've been gone. Things happened. Tale as old as time. Tune in as Alec and Brian sift through the biggest entertainment news from the past few weeks, including the future of the DCU, new Avatar: Seven Havens rumors, the fall of TRON, and a lot of new stuff from NYCC -- including DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN Season 2!

"WHAT IS YOUR HEART FOR?" Thirty years ago today, a new anime premiered on television in Japan. One that seemed standard fare for the time, giant robots fighting giant monsters, etc. What no one really knew was that it would end up becoming one of the cornerstones of all of modern pop culture as we know it, one that's still analyzed to this day in its storytelling, themes, and artistry. Many people have taken their cracks at discussing it, and now it's our turn. So, tune in as Alec, Brian, and special guest Darby (@gwenstacying) celebrate the thirty year anniversary of NEON GENESIS EVANGELION by looking back on the series, The End of Evangelion, all the manga spinoffs, and even the rebuilds, and discussing what they all mean to them!

WE'RE BACK, BABY! What was supposed to be a short hiatus stretched out over the course of a month. A lot's happened, including things we've waited four years for, so let's get to it. Tune in as Alec and Brian return to Boulder Punch and discuss recent news, such as MAN OF TOMORROW, KNIGHTS OF GUINEVERE, Krondon as Tombstone in SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY, and the four-years-in-the-making first gameplay trailer for Insomniac Games' WOLVERINE!

2008 ISN'T COMING BACK. A big growing sentiment in recent years has been the overall idea that Spider-Man as an IP is wrong nowadays and that whatever's going on currently is an invalid fad that doesn't matter and will fade away. We have thoughts on that. Tune in as Brian and Alec discuss recent news and the current state of the Web-Head -- and why he has changed drastically and permanently.

OR MAYBE NOT WE'LL PROBABLY DO MORE. It's been a year since our Phase 5 pitches. It's time to bring it all home... until we end up doing Phase 7 next year. Come join Brian and Alec as they return to Boulder Pitch with the third chapters of their takes on Post-Endgame MCU, PHASE 6!

Y'ALL KNOW THE DRILL. A tale as old as time. Alec and Brian cover a main topic that's gonna take a while. Alec decides to add a news section anyway. They record for nearly six hours. Splitsies time. Tune in as Alec and Brian take a look at news from past two weeks, including updates on Zach Cregger's RESIDENT EVIL, MY ADVENTURES WITH GREEN LANTERN, LEGO BATMAN, SUPERMAN 2, and SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY!

HE'S BACK. It's been a couple weeks, and everything (of course) decided to happen in that stretch of time. The main thing, however, is a film we've been waiting for something concrete on for a very long time. Lock in, guys. Tune in as Alec and Brian go over as much news as they can from the past few weeks, including Ultimate Spider-Man ending, Peacemaker S2's trailer, All-New Venom's long overdue development, and our first official and set photo looks at Spider-Man: Brand New Day!

FOURTH TIME'S THE CHARM! We've all been waiting for a good Fantastic Four film since we've been born. After many years, Marvel seemed to finally lock it in. So, what do we think of it? Tune in to find out as Alec and Brian go over recent news and dive into the world, heart, and spoilers of Marvel Studios' THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS!

NOW WHAT? It's been a week since Superman premiered and introduced the world to the DCU, and despite some reservations, the film has been a moderate success. In the days since, a lot of stuff is lining up for the future of this new universe, if there even will be one. So, tune in as Alec and Brian go over recent news from the past few weeks, including new Ghost of Yōtei gameplay, new trailers for cursed movies, and all the beans Jimmy Gunn has spilled on what's next for the DCU!

"MAYBE THAT'S THE REAL PUNK ROCK." Well, guys, the promised day is here. After twelve years, numerous false starts, and the studio nearly washing its hands clean of the character altogether, we finally have a new movie about the man of tomorrow. James Gunn's first (let's be honest, genuine) foray into the new DCU has had a whole lot riding on it these past two and a half years since its announcement, and it's seemingly paid off thus far. However, as two fans of the big blue boy scout, what do we think about it? Tune in to find out as Alec and Brian go all-in on characters, spoilers, and more as they discuss the movie Warner Bros. has bet everything on -- DC Studios' and James Gunn's SUPERMAN!

"YOU MADE ME HAPPY..." Silent Hill 2 is one of the crowning achievements of survival horror and video game storytelling, alongside being one of Brian's favorite games of all time. When it was first leaked and announced that a remake would be developed by Bloober Team, he, Alec, and many others feared the worst for the next two years. What nobody could've predicted was the game turning out as well as it did, reinvigorating interest in the franchise. So, all these years later, how does the tragedy of James and Mary Sunderland still hold up? Tune in to find out as Brian and Alec dive into recent news and their experiences playing what many call the best horror game of all time -- SILENT HILL 2!

THEY DID IT! THEY CHOSE A CHARACTER WHO STARTED IN SPIDER-MAN! Yet another news episode coming at y'all! A lot's happened in the past two weeks, so tune in as Alec and Brian discuss as much of it as they can -- including new DCU news from James Gunn, Clayface's casting, Spider-Man: The Animated Series getting an official comic conclusion, the final Fantastic Four trailer, and the Punisher's return in Spider-Man: Brand New Day!

REQUIEM FOR THE DEAD. SUPERMAN FOR THE LIVING. A lot has happened in the past week. Some good. Some bad. Some utterly nothing. Y'all know the drill. Tune in as Alec and birthday boy Brian take a look at recent news and trailers, including SummerGameFest, the Xbox Showcase, Resident Evil Requiem, and Superman!
