6. Charlie Kaufman's "Synecdoche, New York"
After a 9 month gestation, the boys have finally birthed a new episode. In this one, Jacob and Dan tackle the incredibly dense movies of Charlie Kaufman. Join them for a conversation where they attempt to make sense out of opaque metaphors, discuss trans narratives that may or may not be present in the film, and share their deepest fears.

4. Jordan Peele's "Get Out"
Spooky Season™ wraps up as the boys take a peek at one of the modern masters of horror, and discuss Jordan Peele's landscape altering "Get Out." They do their best to unpack what they can, without getting too bogged down in digressions about Bill Clinton, SNL, and the death of sketch comedy.
