It's a tall order to follow up the "Hat Guy" episode, but we think we've got just the show for you. This week, Sam is back from his honeymoon, and we have a lot to discuss. Matt Reeves has stepped away from "The Batman: Part 2", Jeremy Renner knows why the Avengers will lose in "Doomsday", Greta Gerwig takes an unconventional approach to Narnia, and Walton Goggins is here to save cinema. We review the finale of "Lanterns", as well as the first two episodes of "VisionQuest", Josh gets controversial talking about "The Social Reckoning", Sam almost goes comatose talking about "Street Fighter", and FINALLY...we review Tom Cruise's "Digger". It's a loaded one ladies and gentlemen, you don't want to miss it!NEW EPISODES REGULARLY, or at least whenever we can assemble.-FOLLOW OUR SOCIALS⏬️• Instagram: @thepodyourelookingfor• TikTok: @thepodyourelookingfor• Youtube: @thepodyourelookingfor• Josh’s Letterboxd: @BoFlows• Sam’s Letterboxd: @SamuelKondracki• Sam’s Instagram: @samuelkondracki-#marvel #dc #superman #jamesgunn #davidcorenswet #batman #thebatman#film #cinema #movie #movies #spiderman #mcu #podcast #starwars#marvel #avengers #netflix #2026 #disney #spidermanbrandnewday#tomholland #invincible #daredevil #doomsday #robertdowneyjr #chrisevans  #spiderverse #maulshadowlord #darthvader #darthmaul #mandalorian#themandalorianandgrogu #avengersdoomsday #toystory5 #toystory #supergirl #xmen97 #theodyssey #christophernolan #ryangosling #blackpanther #ghostrider #xmen #frozen #coco #kingdomhearts #lanterns #coyotevsacme #harrypotter #narnia #wolverine #primetime #residentevil #avengersendgameencore #theescapepod #escapepod #hatguy #digger #thesocialreckoning #visionquest #streetfighter

Who cares? We do.-Ladies and gentlemen, we got him. At long last, in this week's episode, the king of hot takes, the sultan of cinema, the man of the hour himself is here...Alex "Hat Guy" Azor joins us on the show. In this episode, Alex sits down with us to discuss all things "Escape Pod", what it means to be a trailblazer in the world of movie & TV podcasting, and we divulge in an unexpected injury that has consumed the last several months of his life. We rattle off a handful of piping hot film takes in a burst-fire game of "Burn It or Back It", Alex goes scorched earth on the 49ers, and last but certainly not least, we dive head-first into his latest and greatest Pokemon-themed endeavor, "ROTOM-POD"!

3000 incursions?!-The stage is set. In advance of "Avengers: Doomsday" this December, we received several MAJOR teases in the recent re-release of "Avengers: Endgame", and this week we're here to dissect it all. We're unpacking THAT ending, as well as the three new post-credit scenes, we're diving into whether Robert Downey Jr. as Doom makes or breaks the story, and last but not least, we've got a new game to decide exactly which projects across the MCU are considered "essential viewings" prior to the biggest cinematic event of the decade.

This week, we've got casting confirmations for both upcoming Avengers projects, filming updates on the "Days of Thunder" sequel, a DCU update or two, a devastating bit of news on "Daredevil: Born Again", and much much more. We've got Lanterns episode 6 talk, we rave about "Resident Evil" possibly being the sleeper horror movie of the year, Primetime blows our minds and scars us for life, and "Avengers: Endgame Encore" raises the stakes for "Doomsday" higher than they've ever been before.

The lion, the witch, and the rock and roll wardrobe.-Summer has come to an end ladies and gentlemen, and we are on the cusp of one of the most legendary fall-winter stretches that cinema has ever seen...but the here and now is where it all goes down. In this week's episode, we've got our usual "Lanterns" talk, our first reactions are in after playing the brand new and highly controversial "Wolverine" game for the very first time, we go head-to-head in a match of "Take 5", and maybe craziest of all, Narnia is back...and the world will never be the same again.

It's never been more over.-James Gunn would ruin "Party Rock Anthem", wouldn't he. In this week's episode we're patiently awaiting the September Lin-sanity run of "Resident Evil", "Avengers: Endgame - Encore", and "Primetime", but in the meantime, we've got yet another loaded episode for y'all. "Lanterns" is firing on all cylinders, we react as "The People vs. Gorilla Grodd" threatens to destroy the DCU as we know it, the X-Men add a new hero to their roster, and most importantly, we've got the long-awaited return of "One's Gotta Go".

Josh reviews both parts of "The Deathly Hallows" and airs out a deep-rooted beef with Ron Weasley, Sam compares the books to the films and highlights some of the biggest details the movies passed over, we rank every chapter of the saga from best to worst and worst to best, and finally, we've got an all-new Wizarding World take on the age ol' classic..."Burn It or Back It".

In this week's episode, we talk the cinematic return of the Looney Tunes in "Coyote vs. Acme", we've got even more Lanterns talk as we continue to settle into one of the DCU's best projects to date, and last but not least, in honor of the 2026 NFL season kicking off in just a few more days, we've got some Cinema Fantasy Drafts of our own!

Nice.-They're rarer than a shooting star but more beautiful to behold than a bride ladies and gentlemen, we've got a two-episode week on our hands! In this week's SECOND episode, we sit down to review "The End of Oak Street", we've got "X-Men '97: Season 2" talk, and we've got our longest James Gunn rant to ever grace the podcast, as "Lanterns" officially hits HBO Max...and as the silver-haired sensation continues to cancel more and more projects that at one point were supposed to be the foundation upon which the DCU was established.

Disney is right back on top.-ComicCon came and went and we were over here thinking Marvel and Disney had shown every ace up their sleeve...and then D23 said "hold my beer". In this week's emergency pod, we're recapping absolutely every reveal from Disney's film and television panel this past Friday night. We've got Pixar sequels, we've got first looks at some brand new content coming to Disney+, our first look at "Kingdom Hearts 4" is looking "poco loco", and we're tempted to say Marvel has officially never been in a better spot than it is right now.

And just like that, we're over halfway through 2026.-What an unbelievable year for cinema it has been so far, ladies and gentlemen...and there is still so much yet to come.

The flood waters rose, the podcast set was destroyed, and from the ashes we present to you our longest episode yet.-Ladies and gentlemen, our friendly neighborhood pal is back in theaters..."Spider-Man: Brand New Day" has finally arrived. In this week's episode, we cover all things Spider-Man, with movie rankings, a game of "This or That", and over two hours of spoiler-free and spoiler talk around "Brand New Day". But most importantly, we would like to address the elephant in the room...just one month after moving into our new podcast studio, a flood has forced us back into the original room where the show began. This last week has been a roller coaster of emotions, decisions, and reactions for the two of us, but one thing that we have never questioned once through this process is just how much we love doing what we do, and that we get to share this thing we love with you. Your kind words of encouragement and support got us through this impossible-to-foresee disaster, and we can't thank you enough for sticking with us through it all.
