A time capsule
I started listening as research for a comic book that’s set in 2015. I just heard them talk about Age of Ultron and immediately felt seen when David suggested the game ‘every time you hear the words Infinity Stones shoot yourself in the face.’ I doubt that by the time I catch up to the present they’ll still be reading reviews at the top of the episodes, but just in case, I am leaving this as a time capsule. A time capsule within a time capsule, because that’s the incredible value of this type of show, it gives a window into what people were actually saying in the moment. Trying to explain to a current fan of anything that people didn’t always think the way the online discourse would have them believe is tough and often met with anger, as if knowing that Keanu Reeves was used as a punchline stand-in for bad and dumb for years. or that Mark Hamill was so secondary to Harrison Ford that he could play David Spade’s stalker (as himself) on Just Shoot Me will rob them of some more pure truth cemented by marketing spin. Listening to this show feels like an anathema to all that and I am delighted.

The hosts were smart, dynamic and eloquent and represented some part of the movie viewer spectrum that I really appreciated. Now every week I look...Read full review »

I usually can’t stand snobs of any variety. But people who don’t appreciate David Ehrlich are missing the point. People: David Ehrlich is PLAYING A CHARACTER. His athletic masterpieces of trolling are a form of PERFORMANCE ART. Will he acknowledge this? Of course he will not. To do so would be to...Read full review »
