*Bonus* Sing Sing

Mike and Toy are back with their first episode after the rebrand, and it is a big one. The pair reviewed the upcoming release from AMC's ALLBLK, "Long Time Listener," and interviewed director Danielle Nicolet (The Flash, Central Intelligence). This was Nicolet's feature directorial debut, so we talked about her transition behind the camera- the good and the bad. At the end, we got into some less movie-related questions- like, what flavor she would be if she had to choose. This was a spoiler-free review since the movie isn't out yet, but we'll be back with a deeper dive after the movie premieres on ALLBLK on April 2nd. It's hard to do a spoiler-free review of a murder mystery, but we promise we didn't give anything away.

For these two episodes, Toy and I tried something different. I bought those mics that the influencers who do the on-street interviews use, and we recorded while driving home from the movies. During the first review, I had some movement in the mic, so I apologize for that. The second time, I held the mic, but when I moved my head, the mic didn't go with me. This is a work in progress, so please forgive me if the audio isn't as crisp as you're used to.

Toy and Mike are back in your feed with the hottest movie in theaters, Zach Cregger's "Weapons." Cregger brought back a storytelling device that worked well in Barbarian but took it to another level in this film by shifting perspectives several times. This took the movie to another level in terms of suspense and the fun of the ride from start to finish. Before we talked about the movie, the random movie topic generator gave us the prompt "Did Not Age Well." "Did Not Age Well" (00:00)Weapons Review (09:00)WeaponsStarring: Julia Garner, Josh Brolin, and Alden EhrenreichAdditional Cast: Cary Christopher, Austin Abrams, Benedict Wong, Amy MadiganDirected by: Zach CreggerWritten by: Zach CreggerQuick Synopsis: When all but one child from the same class mysteriously vanish on the same night at exactly the same time, a community is left questioning who or what is behind their disappearance.Follow: Mike on Twitter and Bluesky @BibsCorner and the show @BrownButterPod for more content!
