In this bonus episode of Sorry, We Tried--- the first episode of 2024--- the guys discuss the ridiculousness that is the Christian film industry.

Welcome to our first "Leftover Potluck!" Sometimes, an episode has some good content that has to be cut for time. Last week's episode was no different!

Justice League (The Bad One) // DCEU Revisited #4 | 059

October 03, 2023 11:00 - 45 minutes - 31.6 MB

In this blockbusting episode of Sorry, We Tried, we're persisting in our excruciating return trip to the murky waters of the DCEU! Each film brings us further and further into the epicenter of pain. This is especially true with this week's movie--- the horrific Justice League (2017) film that failed so badly that the franchise never recovered.

In this explosive episode of Sorry We Tried,  we're filling in a gap in the schedule! This time, Harrison shares the baffling, life-threatening history of the USA's nuclear testing.

To put it briefly, America has accidentally dropped hundreds of nuclear bombs over the years on American soil, nearly wiping itself off the map more times than you can count. There are also hund...

September 04, 2023 13:00 - 40 minutes - 27.6 MB

In this quacking episode of Sorry, We Tried, we're talking about one of the most bizarre cases of intellectual property theft ever. Back in the 90s, an ex-Marvel Comics writer out for vengeance literally stole the character of Howard the Duck right from under the noses of Marvel executives in one of the most intricately-planned acts of trolling ever committed. This wild, wild tale involves an elf with a gun, cyborgs, clones, lawsuits, and even a presidential campaign. Buckle up, because this...

August 28, 2023 14:00 - 39 minutes - 27.4 MB

In this imaginative episode of Sorry, We Tried, the guys return to the wacky, random world of Everyone Is John, their favorite tabletop game where everything is determined by the roll of a dice. This time, John is lost in the streets of New York City, the city so nice they named it twice. Will Robby maintain his undefeated streak, or will Harrison be able to finally dethrone the reigning champ?  Also in this episode, Harrison can't seem to steal any hotdogs.

In this mythic episode of Sorry, We Tried, we're continuing with our lunacy-inducing DCEU revisit. This time, it's a double-feature, as we watched both Suicide Squad (2016) and Wonder Woman! There is a LOT to cover, as Suicide Squad had a cursed production that looked very similar to what happened to Zack Snyder with his Justice League movie. The gritty military/crime flick faced everything from rushed rewrites, baffling edits, and... Jared Leto's insane method acting? Basically, nothing wen...

July 31, 2023 12:00 - 1 hour - 52.3 MB

In this dark and gritty episode of Sorry, We Tried, we're continuing with our DCEU revisit... it's time for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice! This divisive superhero sequel split the world in two back in 2016, creating armies of haters and supporters willing to die for their opinions. 7 years later, is Zack Snyder's Justice League prequel worthy of the controversy? Have our opinions changed at all over the years, now that the Snyderverse is officially dead? Also on this episode, Harrison...

March 06, 2023 12:00 - 23 minutes - 16.4 MB

In this... odd episode of Sorry, We Tried, Robby fumbled the bag by not preparing an episode topic. However, not even that can stop the content train. The grind never stops at SWT Studios; so, against our better judgment, we tried to pull together an episode. The results have to be heard to be believed.
