This week the boys and their potato talk about The Acolyte and our best attempts at not hating it (though cortosis is cool). We discuss what duty (if any) film-makers have to preserve the nature of an established "universe". Also covered is the latest season of The Boys and the usual gaming update.

John, Matt and Yukon Gold ask the question - when did Apple start making excellent shows and movies? Apple have two very strong shows in Constallation and Foundation which have overwhelmingly impressed John (a task thought impossible by most). They also talk about the classic Starship Troopers, The Last Airbender and movies and shows that left us wanting more as well as The Bad Batch.

...The boys have come together for the first time this year to further insult the probie, but also groan about awards season in Hollywood, discuss their Christmas hauls, cover the games they are playing and Matt thinks Dr Who is kinda all right. If there's time, we will also discuss the latest with The Bad Batch.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
