    No. 604 | “Oh he’s the good drug dealer.”

    We’re back with a special pod and a special guest. Sara joins us to talk about the 1999 film Go, by Doug Liman and John August. What a blast from the past this movie is. Young Katie Holmes! Timothy Olyphant stealing everything! Mannie still sucks! “It’s all right, I’m okay!” The final book in our Trouble: Girl Detective mystery series is out now! Order Trouble to the Last Drop on Kindle, Paperback, or Hardcover now!

    603 | “The closer you look, the less you’ll see”

    We’re back with an actual movie pod! This week we’re joined by special guest Ally to discuss the magic heist classic Now You See Me, starring Mark Zuckerberg as the tastefully named J. Daniel Atlas, lothario magician! A lot of people hated this movie, but we kinda dug it. There’s magic! And heists! And magic-fu fighting! And then the movie kinda runs out of steam. But still, a fun watch. Also, some spoilerific Game On, Trouble talk at the end, you’ve been warned!

  3. 602 | A Conversation about “Game On, Trouble”

    602 | A Conversation about “Game On, Trouble”

    No movie to talk about this time, we are indulging ourselves with an extended talk about our new book, “Game On, Trouble.” Joining us is beta reader Kayla, who watched the novel develop over a couple drafts. MASSIVE SPOILERS, obviously. If you haven’t read all the Trouble books yet, pause the pod, go read them, and come back before you listen!

  4. No. 601 | Summer Blockbuster Round-up

    No. 601 | Summer Blockbuster Round-up

    The guys return to catch up on all the big ticket summer entertainment in movies and television. First we talk the legacyquel Twisters, starring Glen Powell, the girl from Normal People, and no kissing. Then, because we must, we discuss Deadpool and Wolverine, a feature-length Super Bowl commercial. We divert a little to talk about the recent ComicCon announcements for the MCU, and then shift to the small screen to cover Star Wars: The Acolyte. Finally, we wrap things up with a discussion of House of the Dragon.

    No. 513 | “Hi, Barbie!”

    Yes, we did the whole Barbenheimer thing. Please enjoy this mini-episode of Headcanon At The Movies where the guys chat about their thoughts about Barbie and Oppenheimer. Send all complaints to @jamestaylor21

  6. No. 512 | “A mind-reading, shape-shifting agent of chaos.”

    14/07/2023

    No. 512 | “A mind-reading, shape-shifting agent of chaos.”

    We went and saw Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One and then ran to the mics to discuss. Is it just us, or is the dynamic between Ethan Hunt, Ilsa Faust, and newcomer Grace (Hayley Atwell) just so, so weird? SPOILERS ABOUND YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

  7. No. 511 | “I miss the desert. I miss the sea.”

    04/07/2023

    No. 511 | “I miss the desert. I miss the sea.”

    Happy Fourth, listeners. We dragged ourselves to the mics to discuss Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (12:46). It was… fine. Also discussed: our plans for Cruel Summer season 2. *whip-crack noise!*

  8. No. 510 | “Burglekutt, you’re troll dung!”

    20/02/2023

    No. 510 | “Burglekutt, you’re troll dung!”

    The guys return with a very timely episode on the 1988 fantasy film Willow, and they’re joined by special guest Kayla. JT had never seen this movie, but it’s close to Kayla’s heart. This one goes off the rails in a hurry.
