    The Rolling Remote: The Pitt (S2, Episodes 1-10)

    The Pitt is a medical procedural drama television series created by R. Scott Gemmill, and executive produced by John Wells and Noah Wyle after the same group collaborate on ER. It stars Wyle, Tracy Ifeachor, Patrick Ball, Katherine LaNasa, Supriya Ganesh, Fiona Dourif, Taylor Dearden, Isa Briones, Gerran Howell, and Shabana Azeez.  Each season of the series follows emergency department staff as they attempt to overcome the hardships of a single 15-hour work shift at the fictional Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center, all while having to navigate staff shortages and underfunding. Each episode covers approximately one hour of the work shift. Today we are diving back in to the chaos of HBO's Emmy-award winning medical drama which returned earlier this year with its second season. Season One established the show's real time ER structure and introduced us to the staff working in one of the most chaotic emergency rooms on television. Season Two has kept that formula going, but has continued to raise the stakes significantly. We have some new doctors, new relationships. We have the hospital experimenting with AI systems. By the time we reach episode 10, the ER is in complete chaos with one of its most intense crises. Today we're breaking down those first ten episodes of Season Two of The Pitt.  On this episode: Jake Fittipaldi Adam Patla Bobbi Miller Des Mack Patrick Regal Support the show Subscribe for Early Access and Video: The Rolling Tape Patreon Listen Here: Spotify Apple Podcasts All Listening Platforms Have questions?

    EP 180: Undertone (2026) & A24 Horror Films Tier Ranking

    March has been a month of horror with last week’s conversation on The Bride! and movie monsters setting the stage for this week to dive into the paranormal with Ian Tuason’s directorial debut, undertone. Undertone premiered at Fantasia Festival on July 27, 2025, and was theatrically released in the US by A24 on March 13, 2026. Today, we are calling all demonic spirits and paranormal skeptics while channeling the energy of the undertone podcast. The film stars Nina Kiri as Evy, a woman who hosts a paranormal podcast with her friend Justin played by Adam DiMarco, where she is the skeptic to his believer. After Evy moves back home to become the caregiver to her dying mother, she and Justin are sent recordings by a married couple experiencing paranormal noises in their home, drawing Evy into fear and paranoia. We’ll discuss the film as well as look back at A24’s horror filmography by tier-ranking everything they have distributed in the genre.

    The Rolling Remote: Industry (S4, Episodes 6-8)

    Today, we are returning to the chaotic world of HBO's financial drama, Industry, to finish our Season 4 discussion. In our last episode, we covered the first half of the season, episodes 1-5, and now we're picking up with episodes 6-8 where this season's expansion comes to a head from the fallout of Harper's investigation into Tender to the political and financial chaos surrounding everything Henry, Whitney, and Yasmin are up to, and of course, the shifting relationships between some of the show's core characters.  These episodes push the story further into corporate espionage, political influence, and global finance while still grounding everything in the messy personal dynamics that have always defined the show. Jake and The Rolling Remote team finish the conversation on Season 4!  Listen in here with early access and full video episodes on Patreon.

    EP 179: The Bride! (2026), The Career of Jessie Buckley & Re-Adapting Classic Movie Monsters

    As mentioned in our conversation last week, discussing the origins of Universal’s movie monsters in 1935’s Bride of Frankenstein, we were leading into the latest re-adaptation with Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride! The film pays homage to both the 1935 film and Mary Shelley’s 1817 source text, “Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus.” The Bride! had its world premiere in London on February 26, 2026 and was released in the US by Warner Bros. on March 6.  We discuss the film where in 1930s Chicago, Frankenstein asks Dr. Euphronius to help create a companion. They give life to a murdered woman as the Bride, sparking romance, police interest, and radical social change. The film stars Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale alongside Peter Sarsgaard, Annette Bening, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Penélope Cruz.  We also discuss the career of Jessie Buckley as she approaches winning her first Oscar, and the popularity of bringing back movie monsters in recent years.  On this episode: Danny Jarabek Timmy Lee Aryan Patel Support the show Subscribe for Early Access and Video: The Rolling Tape Patreon Listen Here: Spotify Apple Podcasts All Listening Platforms Have questions?

    The Awards Tape: State of the Awards Race & Precursor Recaps 2025-26 (DGA, BAFTA, PGA, ACE, SAG)

    It's been a hot minute since we've done a pulse check in the Awards Race, with the last time we recorded being over a month ago on January 25th. It was our post-Oscar nominations recap with Cole Curtiss from the Oscars Model offering his insight and reactions, but so much has happened since then. The BAFTA Awards ceremony, the Directors Guild, and the Producers Guild of America have awarded their respective winners.  We also reacted live to The Actor Awards (SAG), and at the time of publication, we're 11 days away from the 98th Academy Awards. We recap everything that's happened in the awards race while sharing our updated predictions in contentious categories. Although we recorded the episode before The Actor Awards, we also add an appendix based on the results of SAG at the end of the episode.  On this episode: Paul Rai Jacob Diedenhofer Danny Jarabek Adam Patla Support the show Subscribe for Early Access and Video: The Rolling Tape Patreon Listen Here: Spotify Apple Podcasts All Listening Platforms Have questions?
