That's right, dear listener, this episode is all about the fallout from last September's Super-Controversial Live Action Batman Rankings episode, which got a surprising number of responses from some very passionate fans of The Dark Knight, and we finally decided to respond to them.

We're actually talking about a lot of the behind-the-scenes machinations behind the made-for-TV holiday movie factory, and how things in this industry have changed since a very big story broke in 2019. It's a story that deals with racism, homophobia, Christian conservatives, and a whole lot of other heavy topics, so if you don't want to deal with that stuff during your ...

This Is Not A Review Of "Forgiveness" by Girlpool
November 11, 2022 19:31 - 11 minutes - 10.3 MBThe episode you're listening to is not a review of 2022's Forgiveness by synthpop duo Girlpool. You may think it is at first glance, but we assure you that's not what this is. Sure, we may discuss Forgiveness for a few minutes, but that hardly qualifies as a review. We also discuss Allegoria, the feature film debut from hard rock musician-turned-filmmaker Spider One, who is also the younger brother of Rob Zombie. Allegoria is currently streaming on SHUDDER. But we don't review Allegoria, eit...

We get into a very in-depth and varied discussion that covers all the relevant bases regarding the movie and the franchise in general, so if you haven't seen the movie yet and don't want to be spoiled, you might want to sk...

Essential Albums LIGHTNING ROUND!
October 07, 2022 20:14 - 52 minutes - 48.4 MBWelcome to season two of the show that talks about stuff on purpose! TRAPPO is back with our next round of essential albums, but we're not just doing the same old boring thing we did to kick off our first season. That would be a waste of time. Instead of doing five albums each, we're each bringing TEN albums to the table in this ridiculously overstuffed LIGHTNING ROUND conversation! We may have gone a little overboard, but we managed to keep things in check this time around, we promise. It's...

Anyway, this time around we're talking about legendary avant-garde jazz musician Miles Davis, deranged indie rock band Starcrawler, the pos...

The Super-Controversial Live Action Batman Rankings Episode!
September 02, 2022 18:38 - 28 minutes - 26.1 MBThis time around, we're trying something a bit different here by taking a closer look at all of the live action Batman movies. All of the live action Batman solo movies, so none of the Zack Snyder stuff here, and no discussion of the various animated incarnations of the Caped Crusader either. But don't lose hope, because those might just be topics of future episodes. Your hosts will each be sharing their personal rankings of all these movies, from worst to first, and as the title suggests, t...
