In “It’s Not Your Podcast Anymore", we tumble down Mulholland Drive to ask one simple question: does it matter what a movie is about? We dive into David Lynch’s surreal dreamscape of Hollywood heartbreak, mystery, and meaning—or maybe the lack of it.

Listen where you get your podcasts! 🎙️

In 🎥 Phantom Thread (2017), tenderness shows up as caretaking, boundaries, and even discomfort as we revel in the romance of learning to love each other just as we are.

🚨 New Ep Alert: 🎥 Rogue One (2016): Podcasts Are Built on Hope

In this episode, we ask how much collaboration is too much collaboration as they return to the Star Wars IP with a film that explores theme through character, but might go just a little too far with fan service.

Intimacy isn’t always sexy. Sometimes it's just matching each others' weird.

Even if you’ve never seen 🎥 Yojimbo (1961), we’re pretty sure you’ve seen parts of Yojimbo. Especially if you’ve played Ghosts of Yotei.

We chat Akira Kurosawa, style, and the joy of cultural cross pollination.

What makes a movie timeless? 🎥 The Mummy (1999) balances humor, horror, and heart with unshakable charm, while its genre-blending, chemistry and tactile filmmaking created something that still holds up after 25 years.

How much collaboration is too much? We talk Rogue One (2016), a film whose creation sparked almost as many analyses than it has references to the Star Wars IP.

The tradition of exploring theme through character continues, but can you tell a cohesive story with so many lead changes?

Once upon a time, legal thrillers came with a smooth jazz soundtrack, and just a hint of moral ambiguity. This one will even leave you wondering which masked man the poster was really talking about.

I could TL/DL this for you as, “we loved it despite its flaws,” but where’s the fun in that?

"The Thin Man" (1934) came out just before the Hayes Code came into effect, so it toes the line of pre and post Code censorship, from sassy jokes, to emerging tropes.
