    Bhanu runs out of hearts on Survivor 46, Jem increases her status & encroaching franchise fatigue

    Bhanu runs out of hearts on Survivor 46, Jem increases her status & encroaching franchise fatigue

    Danielle & Brett are back to talk about the most recent episode of Survivor 46. It was sadly the end of the line for our king, Bhanu. Probably one of the worst Survivor players in recent memory, if not of all time, the fourth episode of this season ended in one of the least surprising evictions ever...so unsurprising Jeff didn't even do Bhanu the injustice of sending his tribemates to the voting booth. We say RIP to the man so in touch with his emotions he could never survive Survivor.

    Later in the show, Danielle talks about the most recent season of Love Is Blind & Brett talks about how the new Ghostbusters film and the trailer for this year's Beetlejuice sequel are inducing hard franchise fatigue.

    Randen gets evacuated from Survivor 46, 2024 Oscars review & Kate is till missing

    Randen gets evacuated from Survivor 46, 2024 Oscars review & Kate is till missing

    Brett & Dani discuss the third episode of #Survivor46, last weekend's Oscars telecast and more on this week's episode. Randen, who we described last week as a big "WHO?!" fully lived up to his promise by being the first medical evac of the season. Randen, we hardly knew ye.

    Later in the show, they chat about last Sunday's Oscars broadcast in which old man Brett had a few notes, and Dani talks about her first-time viewings of The Zone of Interest & American Fiction this week.

    Closing out the episode, Brett & Dani check in on the British royal family (note: Kate still missing) and Boeing.

    Who's who on Survivor 46, Dune 2, Poor Things & the Sydney Sweeny-aissance

    Who's who on Survivor 46, Dune 2, Poor Things & the Sydney Sweeny-aissance

    After kicking off with some words about the state of modern pop-culture and the meteoric rise in 2024 of Sydney Sweeney, Brett & Danielle dive head-first (Bruce style) into the first two episodes of #survivor46. They break down the two tribal councils and run through the full list of castaways to get initial takeaways on who is a star in the making or who is a WHO!?

    In the final quarter of the show, they chat about Dune Part Two, Poor Things and a few other pop-culture bits and bobs.

    WE'RE BACK pop-culture roundup 2024: True Detective, The Traitors, Oscar movies & more

    WE'RE SO BACK. After a mini-extended New Year's break, Brett & Dani are back to podcast for the remainder of 2024. Survivor 46 is around the corner and Big Brother 26 is likely only months behind that.

    Today we're looking back at the six weeks of pop-culture that we missed: True Detective S4, Past Lives, Anatomy of a Fall, The Traitors S2, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Super Bowl commercials and much much more.

    Dee wins while Survivor 45 flops, Nicole F's reindeer redemption & more 'Maestro'

    Dee wins while Survivor 45 flops, Nicole F's reindeer redemption & more 'Maestro'

    Brett & Dani are back home (in your ears) for the holidays and kick things off looking back to Wednesday night's Survivor 45 finale, which saw Dee take home the grand prize in what we agree was ultimately a weak and forgettable season.

    Big Brother Reindeer Games also ended this week with Nicole Franzel taking home the $100k prize and title of first BBRG champion. Now that she's won two variations of Big Brother, is it time to admit she's one of the show's greats?

    Also on the pod, Dani finally watches Netflix's Maestro, Brett is big mad about a new Golden Globes category and for some reason, we dive into commedia dell'arte for about five minutes. As always, it's a weird one.

Like you, but not you generalizing “cops”

I really like you guys but generalizing that all law enforcement are terrible people is unproductive. As we are trying to do with all people, let’s take each as an individual and not lump all together as good or bad.
