September 09, 2021 14:00 - 1 hour - 48.4 MBThis week, we're talking about the newest blockbuster release in music, Drake's 'Certified Lover Boy,' and what it means when artists get too big to fail.

On the music corner, after a brief conversation regarding our frustration with the arc of Kanye's career, we move on to discuss the good and bad of big recent pop albums from Lorde and Halsey.

Then, we're discussing the very fun 'The Suicide Squad,' which far surpasses the first attempt at this IP and potentially paves a more adult, self-aware way forward for DC movies. Thank you for listening! Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams

Our apologies in advance.* Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams

July 29, 2021 16:00 - 1 hour - 43 MBIn this episode, we're talking about one of our favorite things: pop-punk! We're diving deep into what the genre means to us and our nostalgia for the time it ruled teen popular culture in the 00's. Recently, thanks to the foundation laid by a wave of popular emo rappers, the genre has risen back up the charts and invaded popular music once again. We break it all down. Thank you for listening! Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams
Ep. 43: The violent delight of Netflix's 'Fear Street' trilogy and horror as a low-cost blueprint
July 27, 2021 17:00 - 52 minutes - 36.4 MBIn this episode, we are talking about the three-part movie series that was released rapidly on Netflix over the month of July, "Fear Street." These three entries, subtitled after their period settings in 1994, 1978, and 1666, create a very successful horror story that may serve as a blueprint for future Netflix success, both in budget and in their weekly release schedule. Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams

July 23, 2021 15:00 - 46 minutes - 31.8 MBIn this episode, we review the latest MCU entries in both film and television, 'Black Widow' and 'Loki.' While they are both solid entries into the Marvel Universe, we talk about their chronic devaluing of stakes and how nothing is really over. Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams
Ep. 41: 'Space Jam: A New Legacy' is the longest ever commercial + Tyler, the Creator turns the mixtape into high art with 'Call Me If You Get Lost'
July 21, 2021 14:00 - 44 minutes - 30.5 MBIn this episode, we further discuss our nostalgic feelings for the original 'Space Jam' and how the sequel failed to communicate its commercialism in a way that was still palatable and fun, resulting in the world's longest advertisement. Then, we discuss Tyler, the Creator's new album, and how he continually exceeds expectations, even when working within the confines of one of rap's lost arts - the mixtape. Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams
Ep. 40: 'Zola' is stylish and messy, for better and for worse.
July 09, 2021 12:00 - 43 minutes - 30.1 MBWe're back at the movies again! This time, we saw one of the most anticipated indie movies of the year, 'Zola.'

Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams
Ep. 39: Top 5 Favorite Animated Movies
July 02, 2021 14:00 - 1 hour - 45 MBIn this episode, we're both talking about our personal top 5 animated movies--lists very connected to nostalgia and childhood. While we both grew up watching a lot of Disney movies, which we discuss, there are other more surprising, under-the-radar picks as well that clearly influenced our tastes in adulthood. Thanks for listening! Hosted by Stephen Williams and Zack Miller
Ep. 38: 'Loki' personifies the ups and downs of the Marvel TV experiment + our review of Pixar's 'Luca'
June 29, 2021 12:00 - 47 minutes - 32.4 MBToday, we're arguing about whether or not Marvel knows how to make TV shows that can stand on their own power, or if they are content for their shows to always be tie-ins. Where does this approach leave 'Loki'? Then, we discuss the recent run of Pixar movies and how the coming-of-age 'Luca' fits into that legacy. Thank you for listening! Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams
Ep. 37: Top 5 Favorite Unloved Movies
June 25, 2021 13:00 - 57 minutes - 39.4 MBIn this episode, we're doing another top 5! This time, our favorite unloved movies. What does that mean? Unloved movies, in our definition, are movies that don't have a particular following/legacy and are more likely to be forgotten by time. Blockbusters that came and went with little cultural impact, or that failed to live up to their budget. These movies usually suffer from low ratings, but in this case, we pick the ones we love. Thank you for listening! Hosted by Stephen Williams and Zac...
Ep. 36: Discussing critical race theory and Juneteenth. Plus, reviewing 'In The Heights'
June 22, 2021 13:00 - 52 minutes - 36.1 MBThis week, we're discussing critical race theory and the way our education system fails to teach Black history. Juneteenth is a way to bring attention to that history, but is it enough, or will it just become another corporatized holiday? Then, we review 'In The Heights,' our history with musicals, and talk more about being able to return to theaters. Thank you for listening! Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams

June 15, 2021 12:00 - 34 minutes - 23.8 MBIn this episode, we talk about the second half of Netflix's 'Sweet Tooth,' how it builds on core fantasy themes about choosing your own family, and what we expect to happen following season one's BIG cliffhanger ending.

May 07, 2021 12:00 - 54 minutes - 37.1 MBThe 'Invincible' finale blew our minds and we're finally ready to talk about it. Is it one of the greatest seasons of superhero world-building ever? There's is so much more yet to come and the show has already been renewed by seasons 2 + 3.

Ep. 29: The incredibly detailed storytelling of 'Mare of Easttown' + hype for the 'Invincible' season finale
April 29, 2021 12:00 - 40 minutes - 27.9 MBIn this episode, we discuss HBO's newest prestige crime drama 'Mare of Easttown' and how, in just its first 2 episodes, it is succeeding where others have failed. Incredible attention to place and character detail make this show much more than just its core whodunit. Then, with 7 episodes down and only 1 more to go, we talk over what's to come in the 'Invincible' season finale. If it's anything like the comic source material, this could be an iconic entry into the superhero canon - the hype...
Ep. 28: The finale of 'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier' and how emotion succeeds while plot fails
April 27, 2021 03:00 - 37 minutes - 25.4 MBThis week on Post-Weird, we talk through the heavy-handed end to 'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier,' and how good emotional beats can't save a messy plot.

Hosted by Stephen Williams and Zack Miller

April 23, 2021 12:00 - 45 minutes - 31.6 MBDisney surprised us in episode five of 'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier' by directly addressing the politics of a Black Captain America and the heavy burden of representing a country that doesn't represent you. This week, we discuss the context of this comic book reckoning as it applies to the culture at large, and the continued battle for social justice and fundamental changes to policing in this country. Hosted by Stephen Williams and Zack Miller

April 16, 2021 12:00 - 41 minutes - 28.4 MBIn this new episode of Post-Weird, we discuss the "Space Jam: A New Legacy" trailer and compare its story to our nostalgic memories of the original 'Space Jam.'

Hosted by Stephen Williams and Zack Miller

April 13, 2021 12:00 - 41 minutes - 28.5 MBThis week, we're catching up with 'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier,' the most recent MCU television entry streaming on Disney+. So far, the show has provided fun action, while also vaguely touching on topics of racism, American colonialism, and the military-industrial complex. But will Disney let this show be everything it can be socially? Then, we discuss Georgia's restrictive new voting act and what responsibility corporations, including Disney, have to oppose these laws. Hosted by Step...
Ep. 24: 'Invincible' and the triumph of independent comics on screen
April 08, 2021 13:00 - 27 minutes - 18.8 MBWelcome to another episode of Post-Weird! Today, our conversation is about the new Prime Video animated show 'Invincible, ' based on the long-running Image Comics superhero title of the same name, written by Robert Kirkman (of 'Walking Dead' fame.) It's the best new superhero show on TV as Amazon, together with Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, continues to produce independent comic adaptations that challenge the notions present in the MCU and DCU. Thank you for listening! Hosted by Stephen Wi...
Ep. 23: 'Godzilla vs. Kong' is the blockbuster we need right now
April 06, 2021 12:00 - 27 minutes - 18.9 MBIt's big, dumb, and really fun to watch: 'Godzilla vs. Kong' is the movie we need right now and exactly the kind of movie that can start the soft re-opening of theaters a year after they were closed. In this week's episode, we discuss how the Monsterverse movies remain a success and what rooting for either Gozilla or Kong says about you. Hosted by Stephen Williams and Zack Miller
Ep. 22: 'Zack Snyder's Justice League' PT. 2
April 02, 2021 04:00 - 38 minutes - 26.3 MBIt's here! The moment we've been waiting for and also dreading - The Snyder Cut is out on HBOMax.

Thank you for listening! Hosted by Stephen Williams and Zack Miller
Ep. 20: The mixed finale of 'WandaVision' and expectations for the coming Disney+/MCU television onslaught
March 12, 2021 03:00 - 53 minutes - 37 MBThis week, 'WandaVision' ends, so we try to break down what this season gave us from this deeper character study, and if Disney/Marvel can ever let their heroes truly be people as well. Then, we discuss our expectations headed into 'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier' and 'Loki.' Will these Disney+ shows matter in the larger world of the movies? Thank you for listening! Hosted by Stephen Williams and Zack Miller

March 05, 2021 18:00 - 47 minutes - 32.3 MBThis week, we discuss 'Judas and the Black Messiah,' an incredible movie that makes for difficult watching, and which features two of the best performances in the past year from Daniel Kaluuya (Golden Globe Winner) and LaKeith Stanfield.

Ep. 18: 'Framing Britney Spears' (#FreeBritney), Kanye West, and our disgusting obsession with the celebrity meltdown
February 24, 2021 12:00 - 39 minutes - 27.4 MBThis week on Post-Weird, we discuss the new documentary 'Framing Britney Spears' presented by The New York Times. The documentary covers a period of history both of us are very familiar with - and unfortunately, shows just how bad it really was (and may still be) for Britney. Then, with the news of the KimYe divorce, we talk about what lessons about fame can be learned from #FreeBritney and how they may be able to help Kanye's erratic behavior. Hosted by Zack Miller & Stephen Williams
Ep. 17: 'WandaVision' may be style over substance, but does it matter? Plus, how corporate messaging is shaping 2021
February 18, 2021 12:00 - 59 minutes - 41 MBTo start, we discuss how recent events feel in 2021 as we continue through this period of pandemic response and social activism, both still being addressed culturally and politically. What's the impact of corporate marketing using both the pandemic and Black activism to sell products? Then, we briefly discuss Gina Carano's firing from 'The Mandalorian' (BYE!). Plus, a lengthy discussion on the value of a show like 'WandaVision,' which has its own style, but not its own purpose. Hosted by Z...
Ep. 16: 'The Little Things' impresses only the Golden Globes, $GME goes to the moon (and back again)
February 12, 2021 12:00 - 46 minutes - 31.7 MBDespite the hype, 'The Little Things' is ultimately a disappointing watch that doesn't know what kind of movie it wants to be. So why is the Golden Globes voting body so fixated on Jared Leto's performance? Plus, the $GME saga unfolds on Wall Street to the potential benefit of common people. The stock price has swung dramatically, but when the Hollywood stories come out fictionalizing it (already in the works), it's unlikely they remember what it was really about. Hosted by Zack Miller and ...
Ep. 15: The role of 'WandaVision' in the MCU. Plus, 'Promising Young Woman' and its successful takedown of the Nice Guy
February 04, 2021 04:00 - 45 minutes - 31.5 MBThe MCU is inevitable! We talk about what worked and what didn't in the first few episodes of Disney's first Marvel TV show, 'WandaVision.' It seems that the film/TV strategy is starting to look a lot more like comic book events, but will there come a time where it's too much? Plus, a conversation about the movie 'Promising Young Woman,' an incredible, painful movie deserving of its acclaim. Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams
Ep. 14: A review of art and comedy in the Trump Era + 3 pop-culture picks that defined this period
January 27, 2021 17:00 - 1 hour - 42 MBThe return of Post-Weird! It's been a wild month since the end of season 1, but we begin season 2 with a look back not only at the last few weeks, but the last 4 years of arts in culture under the suffocating cloud of Trumpism. There was a prevailing notion that comedy and political art would get better during this time, but did it? We try to pinpoint what movies, music, and TV best reckoned with this period of history, and each discuss 3 examples. Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams

December 11, 2020 12:00 - 1 hour - 54.7 MBHappy holidays from Post-Weird! We're back this week to recap chapters 12-14 (S2, E4-6) of 'The Mandalorian.' As we near the end of this season, it's become clear that no show on TV quite understands its fanbase like this show - which makes it the best thing to watch right now. Then, we dive into the failure of the upcoming Grammy Awards. Is this failure new? No. But this year is especially weird. Plus, HBO Max/Warner Bros. has now announced that all their new blockbusters in 2021 will now c...
Ep. 10: 2020 Year End Preview and Christmas Q&A
December 03, 2020 23:00 - 40 minutes - 28.1 MBIn this episode, we discuss some of our favorite music, movies, and TV shows of this year as a preview for our year-end Best of 2020 lists coming in a few weeks. This has been a difficult year, but there were a lot of good distractions for which we are thankful. Then, we do a quick Q&A about future Post-Weird topics, upcoming television binges, and the Christmas season as it pertains to music and horror movies. As we approach the end of the year, we will be putting together best-of lists and...

With the recent news that 'Wonder Woman 1984' will go directly to streaming on Christmas day, the same day it hits movie theaters, we discuss the bet that HBO Max and Warner Bros are making on the DCU.

Then, we talk about th...
