Barb and Star aren't just delightful, they're best friends. But is going to Vista Del Mar a Best Friend Quest? Wade and Siggy examine how the Kristen Wiig/Annie Mumolo starrer fits into the subgenre defined by comedies like Booksmart, Superbad, and Never Goin' Back. (And how it maybe shouldn't fit into the Austin Powers mold.)

Wade and Siggy shake The Crime Stick at NOBODY, sketch comedy legend Bob Odenkirk's action debut that borrows just about everything from JOHN WICK except its themes. This episode is as lean and mean as Hutch Mansell with his shirt off, but we still manage to pack in some fun... with the return of Track Marks! So put on your Andy Williams record and your sleepytime turtleneck sweater and take this ride with us, because this is your father's Oldsmobile.

Wade and Siggy wind down from a long recording session with a quick chat about a DCU movie they were surprised by how much they liked.

Wade and Siggy tackle Charlie Kaufman's latest scene by scene, so you'll want to stick around till the end where opinions will sharply diverge. (And no, you won't ever learn what was inhibiting Wade's vision.)

Just because we spent over twice a movie's runtime discussing it doesn't necessarily mean we loved it... but we had so much to say about Jim Cummings' The Wolf of Snow Hollow, this episode just had to stand up to its full height. (And yes, we also loved it.)

Don't let the poster fool you: Ike Barinholtz's THE OATH isn't just a Thanksgiving movie. It's a movie about how scary it is to live in this political moment in America. And it's a comedy! Wade and Siggy will talk you through it. (Available for streaming on Hulu.)

Join us aboard the Starship Relation as Wade and Siggy realize they have very different ideas about whose opinions are asleep and whose are awake when it comes to the Chris Pratt / Jennifer Lawrence / Laurence Fishburne / Andy Garcia sci-fi not-bomb Passengers... then survive long enough for a return trip to Palm Springs to pit these two films in a virtual dance-off. Very good, sir!

Pain matters. What we do to other people matters. Palm Springs matters, and You Watched It Wrong does not, but we'd rather die with you listening to us than podcast alone.

Wade and Siggy were really enjoying each other's company, and they really enjoyed Gina Prince-Bythewood and Greg Rucka's The Old Guard, so they talked long enough to make you forget how old you are. But first, to warm up, they play a quick round of Wade's original movie soundtrack game, Track Marks.

Wade goes deep into one flashback in Superbad, as only Wade can. (This was on the cutting room floor, but Siggy likes it so he's posting it.)

Some directorial debuts just seem so unhappy on the inside. And something about that just seems so sad. Not so Augustine Frizzell's NEVER GOIN' BACK, and Wade and Siggy have some ideas as to why.
Then, Siggy formalizes how BOOKSMART, SUPERBAD, and GOOD BOYS belong to a sub-genre he coins "The BFF Quest"... and how NEVER GOIN' BACK both builds on and subverts its tropes.

Wade and Siggy are tired of social isolation, so let's talk about movies where folks get together with their best buds, go roam the wilds of their neighborhoods and make out with people! (But just in movies, folks. There's still a pandemic raging, FFS. Wear your damn mask!)
In Part One of an unofficial two-part series, we cover three classic examples of what Siggy dubs "The BFF Quest". (Three and a third if you count Myth Of The American Sleepover. But not enough to get it into the episode...

Wade and Siggy have a "quick" phone call to discuss Spider-Man: Far From Home and how it changes their category rankings for the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

As protests sparked by the murder of George Floyd continue across the USA and beyond, Wade and Siggy discuss the massive amounts of video that's being captured, and the long legacy of white supremacy that got us here.
