    Episode 85: Baseball Movies

    Episode 85: Baseball Movies (77 minutes) On what would've been MLB Opening Day 2020, Matty watched Field of Dreams in lieu of real baseball... what happened next may shock you! Nah, it won't shock you at all - he spent the next 3 months watching a new baseball movie every week, and is now ready to share his findings with Alex. Tune in to hear where "Mr. 3000" got his nickname, whose birthday party Alex saw Bad News Bears at, what Owen Wilson's hair looks like under a baseball hat, who Susan Sarandon *really* chose in Bull Durham, and which movie Alex's dad called "not a baseball movie!" PLUS: CTQ sets a new single-episode record for most synopses!

    Episode 84: The Susan-Kate Heaney Trilogy

    Episode 84: The Susan-Kate Heaney Trilogy (83 minutes) Wunderkind Susan-Kate Heaney returns to complete the CTQ trifecta of appearing in the studio, in a live episode, and via Skype. SK fully embodies Ms. Frizzle by teaching the guys all about tooth-forward acting, ideal moisture levels, and the meaning of the word "harlequin." Has Matty finally found a friend to save him from watching a horror movie, or will Alex thwart his plans once more? Hold onto your bodices, it's our steamiest episode yet! And remember: if a man wants a taco, you can't just offer him an enchilada.  QUEUE CONTENDERS: "Like Water For Chocolate" (1992), "Winter of Our Dreams" (1981), "Tootsie" (1982)

    Turn up the GRIT (but not too high), it's Michael Rhima time!

Alex tries to remember the last time he drove Matty to the airport, while Matty gets his Red and Dead seas confused (and pays the price). The question on everyone's mind is: Can you be predestined to change your fate?  QUEUE CONTENDERS: "The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part" (2019), "Kung Fu Hustle" (2004), "The Red Sea Diving Resort" (2019)

As CTQ continues its pivot towards television/relationship advice, the group desperately searches for a historical drama with some laughs. Along the way, Matty discovers the truth behind Alex's aversion to Matthew Broderick, and the result may shock you!  QUEUE CONTENDERS: John Adams (the TV show), Rome (the TV show)
