Podcast Without Pretense Ep. 183 – The Couch Situation

11/2/2017
We review "Glitch." It's the movie that had Jonathan Strickland say, "This movie is not good. It's a rom-com with little romance and zero comedy." Special disappearance by Eric's cat.

10/19/2017
So it's come to this. There was a murder. A movie. A manilla envelope. Or we talked about yet another awful move, maybe even "#Horror."

Podcast Without Pretense Ep. 180 – Top heavy, front-loaded

10/5/2017
We reviewed "3-Headed Shark Attack." Why? Because we hate ourselves. Next up is "Fuller House" season three, episode one. Why? Because Iyaz hates Eric (for this week).

Podcast Without Pretense Ep. 179 – Cults are alright

9/28/2017
One of us endorses cults (sort of). Another creates a chimera of movies (sort of). And yet another endorses either or neither (sort of).

Podcast Without Pretense Ep. 174 – That’s not a twist, that’s a straight line

5/18/2017
In today's episode, we try to take on "Let's Be Evil." It's a sci-fi/horror-y kind of movie that has a lot of great concepts. The execution is a little less than great.

Podcast Without Pretense Ep. 173 – The ability to be totally blind

5/4/2017
We reviewed "Maximum Ride," not to be confused with "Maximum Overdrive" or "Maximum Drive" (which may or may not be movies at all). If you like bird-related nomenclature, you'll love this movie. If you love movies, you will probably not love this movie. Either way, you will enjoy this episode because we watched this flocking thing so you don't have to.

Podcast Without Pretense Ep. 172 – Carmelized friends on the ceiling

4/20/2017
Jonathan, Iyaz and Eric take on "Satanic." No, it has nothing to do with the "Titanic." However, the movie was quite lousy. Here's an alternate title to this episode for your amusement: "Jesus, take the wheel and find a gas station."

Podcast Without Pretense Ep. 169 – The jungle is unamusing

2/23/2017
The trio take on "Welcome to the Jungle." It's not a good movie, it's not a bad movie -- it's a movie. Watch our episode over ever watching the movie. Seriously, there is almost no reason to watch "Welcome to the Jungle."

Podcast Without Pretense Ep. 160 – A reading from the book of Jonathan

8/4/2016
Jonathan Strickland will not upgrade his 2400kbps modem, so he entrusted Eric and Iyaz to read out his copious notes on "Honey." The movie's star, Jessica Alba, has refused to talk to any of the hosts after their review. In all fairness, she refused to talk to them before, too.

7/28/2016

Podcast Without Pretense Ep. 158 – Olivia is turned on by this

7/21/2016
Jonathan, Eric and Iyaz review "Kindergarten Cop 2" starring Dolph Lundgren. We said a lot of things about this movie. You will be more entertained by this episode than by watching the movie. We guarantee it.

Podcast Without Pretense Ep. 157 – Pokemon Go Done Went

7/14/2016
Iyaz takes a break, Jonathan descends into killing crushes, and Eric has to catch 'em all, Pokemon that is. Plus, it's time to nominate Podcast Without Pretense for all the Streamy Awards. Or at least Best Podcast of 2014.
