Ewan and Lachlan are back - well Ewan is at least as Lachlan suffers from an expected audio & video issue for the first 30 minutes of the podcast. While we stare at Lachlan's enraged face mad at his external drive, they chat about the Nintendo Direct that announced new games for The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong, Mario & Luigi, Mario Party, and Metroid. They discuss the recent success of Inside Out at the box office, a new Richard Linklater film, and a $300 Mio film from the Russo Brothers. After discussing the trailer for Smile 2, A Real Pain, The Front Room, and The Penguin they talk about the ongoing disappointment of The Acolyte and the successful start of the fourth season of The Boys and the second season of House of the Dragon. Finally, after Ewan shares his thoughts on I Used to Be Funny, Fancy Dance, and The Beast, the two discuss Jane Schoenbrun's sophomore feature film I Saw the TV Glow.
