Movies, nostalgia, and pop culture collide as the we dive into recent releases, classic theater experiences, and the holiday debate that matters most.
In this episode, we talk about seeing Back to the Future on the big screen, reactions to Wicked and Zootopia 2, and the marathon experience of Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair. Along the way, we discuss popcorn buckets, nostalgia, and why the shared movie theater experience still matters in a streaming-first world.
We close things out with a spirited breakdown of our Top TV & Movie Santas of All Time, and why Christmas doesn’t officially begin until Hans Gruber hits the ground.
Grab some popcorn and join the conversation.

So let's take a look at the Top 10 Most Beautiful Board Games out there. However, before we do that we review off the press, the USPS Great American Mail Race by Big Potato. Then we go off the shelf and look at two games that are now 5 years old. Do they still hold up? Are they worth keeping in your collection? Is it sacrilege to even ask that? These two games are Azul and Ethnos!
