Three boys with bad brains speculate on all upcoming movies, TV shows and comics. Check back each week for an assortment of unfounded, unresearched and unsubstantiated predictions.
The boys are back from the movies where they saw Spiderman: Brand New Day. Did they like it? Mostly! Did it make them excited for the future? Not really, in many ways the opposite. Zammit gets into a fight about the Hulk like a good husband, Jackson has to read War & Peace, and Duscher just wishes they would do something about Jared Leto for once. Sometimes it's kind of bad to be reminded that the MCU can make ok movies, this i...
Wowsers trousers, all the guys are here. The MCU continues to delight with a brand new trailer for the next avengers film, Avengers: Doomsday. Sure looks like a bunch of guys standing around, but surely the film will be more than that. Jackson reaches the end of his tether more or less immediately, Zammit falls down a Ghost Rider hole, and Duscher misses event cinema. If you love seeing guys in places this movie will probably rock,...
Jackson and Duscher went and saw Minions and Monsters and it changed their lives, so they've invited their most adult friends, Joel Zammit and Matt Stewart, into the studio to breathlessly explain the movies plot. Well Joel Zammit was there anyway, but Matt is guesting. The movie is insane in multiple ways you're not expecting, and is maybe the best movie in the Minions franchise. Listen on and make your own decision.
Go see Do Go O...
Tech is coming! It's time for the boys to discuss the fifth entry in the toy story ouvre, Toy Story 5. Was it good? Yeah. Was it amazing? Hard to say. There was certainly a lot going on. Jackson thinks it's funny Toy Story backed itself into a corner, Zammit loves to throw his baby around, and Duscher gets distracted halfway through to have a (justified) argument with someone on his phone. One thing is for sure, they're gonna keep ...
Well let's get this out of the way: Jackson is gonna get spiderwebs shaved into his hair. There's no horse in this movie. There's Lobo though, for some reason, and a child trafficking ring, and at one point Supergirl pisses with the door open. Look, all the boys loved Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow so this movie had a lot to live up to and it hits that much harder that it absolutely failed. A real bummer for the BS boys. But hey, may...
Zammit is sick, so instead enjoy this beautiful episode of Baseless Speculation+

Joel Duscher is away getting his teeth pulled or getting more teeth or something we don’t know so Jackson and Zammit have teamed up for a retrospective on the worst two and a half hours of Jackson’s life: eating 12 eggs. If you’ve ever wanted to hear two men talk about eggs for an hour this is the podcast for you. Jackson provides a blow by blow of each horrible egg he was forced to consume and Zammit tells a fran...
Is Star Wars cooked? Thats the question the boys dare to answer on this weeks episode. Grogu was kind of mid so does that spell disaster for star wars in general? Also man Ryan Gosling has been in a lot of movies and surprisingly most of them didnt do very well. Plus the boys throw aspersions at each other and the rich and famous, as is tradition. Don't forget to give them five stars on your podcast app and if you know a good lawye...
Oh the Boys! What a show! And now it's over and the BS Boys have seen it (or at least the finale) and now it's time to basedly react. Spoiler warning, the boys (our boys, not the show) aren't terribly impressed. Zammit has multiple suggestions for improvement, Duscher remembers an incident involving an elevator shaft, and Jackson reveals his nut preferences. Plus some important information regarding the eating of twelve eggs, so st...
Star Wars is back on the big screen! For such a momentous occasion Jackson and Duscher decided to go to a midnight screening! They regret that! Was the movie good? Did anything happen in it? Is it good to see hutts fight each other with their disgusting slimy worm bodies? And most importantly, does Jackson have to eat 12 eggs? All questions are answered in this beautiful based reaction. The future for Star Wars is looking bright as...
Despite ostensibly ending twice already Toy Story is back with its fifth instalment, Toy Story 5! This time it seems like the toys are going up against tech (by which it appears they actually mean screens) in a battle for Bonnie's attention. The boys discuss this a bit, but mostly they discuss egg recipes, brain rot, and the best way to chug two litres of milk. Joel Duscher also does an "art tierlist" that is sure to ruffle some fe...
It would be fair to say that the King of Pop Michael Jackson was a controversial figure. But did you know that in the 2026 movie Michael literally none of it is addressed because the movie ends in the late 80s? Did you also know that the movie ends with a sequel tease? How will they do that? How could they possibly make a movie about the second half of Michael Jackson's life? Don't they know what he did???? Is it possible to make a...
Amazon Prime's hit TV Series The Boys is coming to an end and who better to speculate on the ending of Amazon Prime's hit TV series The Boys than da boys?! Who's going to eat V1? Who's Homelander's bio-mom? Will Hughie be the one to stop God-Emperor Homelander? Will the give that bulldog V1 juice so he can finally live his dream of making sweet love to Homelander? All these question and more answered or vaguely alluded to on today'...
It's been a long time coming, but BS boys are finally talking about Mandalorian and Grogu. Do they want to see it? Do they understand it really? Is star wars still good in the year of our lord 2026? These questions are difficult to answer. What we do know is that in this episode Jackson whiffs it on the wheel twice with devastating consequences for both him and Zammit, and that sort of eats up most of the run time. Jackson also get...
We're in Sydney and JD went missing for a few hours but that doesn't matter right now because we're joined by Benny Davis to ask what our ideal sci-fi sequel would be, which was really just a ham fisted way for us to defend Avatar against the hurtful things Benny had to say about it and for Benny to be eternally disappointed in us. Learn about Quintin the cockatoo that really just needed to go home, our pitch for Star Wars 2: A New...

JD has had 3 strong coffees and we all try podcasting: normal style for once in our gosh damn lives. Is this good? Is this what you want? Because it was hell for us. Hopefully after we see this film the most important question that is on everyone’s lips will be answered: is Ned still a wizard? Also a little addendum to today’s episode as in between recording this and it going live Paul got got by some guy with a knife o...
A lot of claims were made about the new Mario movie and none of them came true. For your listening pleasure, or viewing pleasure if you’re watching youtube.com/@plumbingthedeathstar, JD eats 40 very cold chicken nuggets that he cares not for. So witness the best day of Jackson’s life in preparation for next week when Jackson has his worst day as he has to watch Midnight in Paris 4 times in a row. You can watch his ...
Motel life isn't for everyone, especially when Bryce HATES you. But thank you for celebrating our 48th birthday in this empty parking lot. Anyways, Mario? He got another movie coming out? Would it be weird if we went on a first date to your family Christmas? Don't answer that. Don't worry about it. Hey, who do you think is the villain of Mario Galaxy? It can't be Bowser again, surely. Bowser Jr. He's your bad guy! Bowser will go go...
The world is bad and it keeps getting worse as your three favourite boys do their best to not just give up and spend the rest of their days in some kind of goon bunker away from everything that’s terrible. Unfortunately we can’t afford a bunker, for either gooning or non-gooning activities. Instead we have to look at the news and see how we’re all getting reamed this time. It’s unfair that we can’t rui...
