    Episode 246: Maul Or Nothing!

    Ever since Rogue One, the galaxy far far away has been a bit of a mixed bag. For every Mandalorian, there is a Solo. And for every Ahsoka, there’s a Rise Of Skywalker. So when a new animated show featuring everyone’s favorite prequel jobber was announced, there was plenty of anticipation, mixed in with a healthy dose of trepidation. Now that we’ve had a chance to give it a watch, the sentiment seems to be nearly unanimous. With a Rotten Tomatoes score just under 100% and tons of critic and fan accolades, Maul: Shadow Lord is a blatant success. So, now that the educated arbiters of taste and unwashed masses have spoken, we’re left to ask… what do the idiots have to say? Well, we’re glad you asked, because we’re going to break it all down for you in this, episode 246, Maul Or Nothing!   FULL VIDEO EPISODES! That's right folks, you can see our bright smiling idiotic faces in full color on our YouTube channel. Full episodes available as well as clips.   LINKS OF INTEREST: - We've got some sad news about "Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord" season 2 - “Maul: Shadow Lord” on IMDB - Kurt Vonnegut and the shape of stories   ...AND ANOTHER THING: The Man They Call Tim suggests watching "Battlestar Galactica" now streaming on Apple TV+ Uncle Todd suggests listening to Matt Duncan’s cover of “Everlong” (Foo Fighters)   FOLLOW US ON THE SOCIAL MEDIAS: Facebook - http://facebook.com/freerangeidiocy Instagram - http://instagram.com/freerangeidiocy YouTube - http://youtube.com/@freerangeidiocy

    Episode 245: Backlash and... Backlash!

    The dust has settled on WrestleMania 42, but that doesn’t mean that all is well and at peace in the wrestling universe. With a 2-day card of only 13 matches, there were a whole lot of folks who got pushed to the back burner of the WWE stove. Then, there was the annual post-Mania releases that took a bunch of people off the back burner and dumped them directly into the grease trap. So what’s to be made of all these snubs and shenanigans? Luckily for you, we’re here with our idiotic mixture of savant-ish knowledge and swashbuckling ignorance to break it all down for you and offer up our surefire ideas of how to make it all right in this, episode 244, What If…?! WWE Edition!   FULL VIDEO EPISODES! That's right folks, you can see our bright smiling idiotic faces in full color on our YouTube channel. Full episodes available as well as clips.   LINKS OF INTEREST: - The Culling continues with the New Day, JC Mateo and Tonga Loa leaving WWE - Are the releases of Aleister Black, Zelina and the MFT/Wyatt feud an example of WWE creative gone wrong?
