Join Callie, Austin, and Brian's silent ghost (Tune into Wasteland Video for more on that!) as they discuss the meta humor and live-action/animation blend that make Back in Action an underrated gem. But that's not all folks! They'll also talk about the gorgeous 2D animation and rapid-fire gags that make The Day The Earth Blew Up one of the best films of 2025.

    The Owl House Season 3 Review

    Weirdoes? Weirdoes. Hipster & The Nerd & Larry returns to the Boiling Isles one more time to look at The Owl House's third and final season! Join Callie, Brian, and Austin as they discuss the character arcs, action, story progression, and cathartic conclusions that make these final three specials so satisfying. Plus, they'll go into why the series was truncated, speculation on what a full Season 3 would've been like, and what the series means to them. Be sure to listen to this hoot of an episode! P.S. In the time since this was recorded, Callie has in fact acquired the Luz and Amity Funko POPs, so please congratulate her on being a nerd. P.P.S. Since we forgot to tease it in the episode itself, our next episode will be a Wasteland Video covering Lone Wolf and Cub: Baby Cart To Hades and Omen III: The Final Conflict
