Ever wonder how David Schwimmer would fare in a late 2000s political thriller? Well you're in luck because this week we're discussing Nothing But the Truth, a political thriller starring Kate Beckinsale, Matt Dillon, and Alan Alda! Join Brandon and Daniel as they discuss David Schwimmer's role in the movie, along with tangential discussions about other 2000s political thrillers, the best Iron Man movie, and surprising Best Picture winners! 

Brandon and Daniel are paying tribute to Angela Lansbury this week by covering the time that she was so mad about having to compete against Friends that she made an episode where a murder happens on the set of a coincidentally named TV show called "Buds". We also discuss Angela Lansbury's Funko Pop, the Night at the Smithsonian universe, and our pitches for a sequel to Sully!

In honor of Halloween, we watch the scariest movie ever made about a mythological Irish creature! This week, we're joined by our guest Nikki to discuss the 1993 Jennifer Aniston vehicle Leprechaun! We discuss the improbable franchise that spawned from this movie, its unorthodox marketing campaign, and our familiarity with leprechaun lore. 

Just weeks ago, this podcast discussed how great Lisa Kudrow would be at voice acting, and in an emergency record we get to discuss her in the newest Rick and Morty! Only problem is that she has maybe 10 lines of dialogue. Join Brandon and Daniel as they discuss their thoughts on Rick and Morty, celebrity voice stunt casting, and the process of storytelling vs. joke writing on a sitcom! 

We've heard of not watching just Friends, but now there's watching Just Friends?!?! This week, Brandon and Daniel cover the 2005 movie Just Friends. We do spend a bit of time discussing the movie, but we also use it as a launchpad to discuss some big Ryan Reynolds news (Deadpool 3 announcement, TJ Miller's weird recent comments) and also some big Anna Faris ex-husband news (Chris Pratt's awful voice acting in The Super Mario Bros. Movie). Listen in to find out which celebrity Daniel sat near on Amtrak, Brandon's shocking revelation about which movies he watches in a theater nowadays, and an anti-prediction about the band Wilco that was proven false one hour after recording the episode! 

Courteney Cox and John Goodman in the same movie in 1999?! Must be a good one, right? There's only one way to find out! Listen in as Brandon and Daniel discuss the 1999 direct-to-VHS movie The Runner. They also discuss the movie Elvis, movies with taglines that should've been the movie name, and how much it probably cost in 1999 to have John Goodman film 90% of his scenes in a weird room that's clearly in a warehouse. 

We've heard of friends reviewing the friends from Friends, but now we have a David reviewing a David?! Brandon and Daniel are joined by guest David to review the 2016 kitchen thriller tv show "Feed the Beast" starring David Schwimmer. We discuss the sheer number of plots that the show crammed into 10 episodes, our favorite and least favorite characters, and we even get some time to discuss the new comedy horror movie Barbarian! 

Who could forget Selma Blair's guest appearance in Friends in "The One With Christmas in Tulsa" which was ranked the worst Friends Christmas episode by Reader's Digest? This week, we take a break from the "friends" of Friends and make our "acquaintance" with Selma Blair in 2004's Hellboy! We also discuss Selma Blair's appearance at the Emmy's, the perfect Sunday afternoon FX movie lineup, and some key actors who were up for parts in Hellboy but didn't make it to filming. 

We've heard of Friends, but now there's imaginary friends?! Join Brandon and Daniel as they cover the 2009 movie Paper Man starring Jeff Daniels, Emma Stone and Friends actor Lisa Kudrow. Discussion topics include the movie's depiction of imaginary friends, how this movie impacted Ryan Reynolds' career, and rousing games of Would You Rather and Rock, Paper Man, Scissors!
