Movie Mastery – Bee Movie (2007) but Every Time We Say Bee the Review Goes Faster

Expounded Universe 124 – More of a Crucible
As is tradition, we wrap up. We discuss what we liked and didn’t like, if we’d recommend the book in general, and so on. Eventually when we run out of […]
Expounded Universe 123 – Hot Golden Showers… of Force
Okay, let’s bring her home. The entire EU that is, because this is the end. The last of it. Will Luke, Leia and Han die in the monolith? Do the […]
DragonRaid – System Mastery 170
Someone tweeted about this, someone else linked it to us, and now we’ve reviewed it. The DragonRaid Adventure Learning System: A Roleplaying Game for Courageous Christians. It’s probably safest to […]
Movie Mastery – Captain America (1979)
Since we were supposed to go see a superhero movie in the theaters this week but couldn’t because of global pandemic, we decided to finally sit down and watch Reb […]
Expounded Universe 122 – Powerbodies by Jake
As boilerplate as the Qrephs have turned out to be, Vestara Khai is a straight up delight. She’s very genre savvy and knows to be completely terrified of Luke and […]
Expounded Universe 121 – Mad About Goo
Luke and Leia engage in some recreational muggle-dumping before looking for any excuse at all to murder Mandalorians (that’s how the light side works) while Han runs around behind Barduun/Jhonus […]
Rampant: Live Action Roleplaying – System Mastery 169
Lightning bolt! Lightning bolt! Lightning b… you get the idea. It’s a LARP game! And for us, a weird one, since we’ve never actually encountered one before that just looks […]
Movie Mastery – Shock Treatment (1981)
The black hole of shitty musicals has yet to release us from its gravity well and has instead dragged special guest Claire down into the muck with us. This is […]
Expounded Universe 120 – And it turned into a Barduun Blitz
Finally, they stop playing sabacc! After, you know, a whole chapter of them playing sabacc again. Meanwhile the smartest brothers in the universe continue their extremely convincing impression of being […]
Expounded Universe 119 – To The Pain
Well, this certainly got way bigger after the last episode? Remember how last time it was Han playing cards with the Qrephs? Well now there’s more people at the table! […]
Timeship – System Mastery 168
Timelord! Would you like to play an RPG as yourself and then, you know, get rewarded for showing up to the table with weapons and German soldier uniforms and stuff? […]
In Theaters Now – Sonic the Hedgehog
After a much-hated initial design, Sonic is back with a less horror inducing look and a strange obsession with preaching the inherent superiority of “small town ideals”. Also, I guess […]
Expounded Universe 118 – Pinnace Envy
A classic tradition of Star Wars EU books return, as Benny Skywalker spends a whole-ass chapter talkin to Lando about a big D8 they found a picture of. Meanwhile, Luke […]
Expounded Universe 117 – The Beast with Two Sabaccs
Whoa, halfway point already? Feels like we’re just getting started! Anyhow, Han is tied to a chair so he can play more sabacc. It’s not all bad though, because he’s […]
Supplement Spectacular 2! – System Mastery 167
A fun side effect of doing what we do is that listeners send us stuff. All the time. We have just tons of books. Jef’s room is basically two used […]
Movie Mastery – Repo! The Genetic Opera (2008)
It’s the musical movie with a cult following that I can only assume likes it ironically. I literally cannot fathom why anyone would choose to watch this more than once.
Expounded Universe 116 – Stake Out
I’m sure the plan here was intentional, that two chapters in a row of Skywalkers sitting in spaceships watching things happening “rhymed” or something. Really, the thing that’s fascinating is […]
Expounded Universe 115 – Big Money Blastas
If you were thinking “boy oh boy I sure hope we get to see some classic Expanded Universe sabacc games today” then I have great news for you. If, however, […]
Dream Park – System Mastery 166
This has been on Jon’s to-get list for most of the time we’ve made the show, and who should suddenly show up with a copy of the thing but our […]
