The End – House of Cards
All good things come to an end, and this show is one that the Somethings were dreading seeing go.
Dipped in controversy, suspected to never complete their story, Netflix pulled off the near impossible of finishing it without it’s primary star.
What happens when the House finally comes to an end? Did they do it justice or was it so far gone that a stiff breeze could topple it? Find out on the 10th episode of The End: House of Cards.
Something In Review – Action Point
There is an infamous place in New Jersey, home of the Somethings, that had the nickname of Traction Park.
This amusement park was known for its bad management and injury prone nature.. and yet we all went as a right of passage.
Take that information and welcome to Action Point, a movie inspired by the world of Action Park and taken and pushed through a Jackass fueled blender.
What did the Somethings thing? Did they walk away with busted up ribs from laughter or chip a tooth from grinding their teeth in anger…. only one way to find out – check out #10 of Something In Review – ACTION POINT!
A group of people who have seemingly never met all gather together, invited by the mysterious Mr. Boddy.
What we find out from there is how much they do know about each other and what they hold over each other’s heads….
Unendingly quotable and beloved by everyone with good taste, this movie made form a boardgame should not have ever been as good as it ended up… but here we are.
So count your bullets (1+1+2+1…) and douse the flames on the side of your head, we’re giving you Something In Review #9: Clue.
Dramatic-ish Readings: Super Troopers
It is time for a new irreverent look at other people’s work – the 10th installment of Dramatic-ish Readings.
One police man who is doing his best to beat his meow record. One man, unsure as to why he got pulled over.
Little does the suspect know, the cop is the leader of a giant criminal agency. Little does the cop know, the suspect is a wanted Rube Goldberg serial murderer.
Join us.. on the must gutteral version or – Dramatic-ish Readings.
Actual Worst Movies
Podcast Rob and Hatton love a bad movie.. maybe Hatton a little more than PCR. Specifically, the kinds of movies where there is so much fun being had by the people that made it or the premise is so knowingly dumb that it is hard to not enjoy yourself.
These are not those movies.
You see, we have talked about bad movies before, but not bad movies before… you follow? The sort of movies that you get up and almost leave the theater and ask for your money back bad. The type of movie you stop in the middle to go get yourself some Tums bad. Movies that derail careers.
These flicks aren’t the sorts of things that came out of the other side of bad and found love… they just got lost in bad and haven’t thought to ask for directions.
Episode 135: Actually Bad Movies
The End – Game of Thrones
It’s rare that we have a show come to an End with such a momentous amount of force behind it. Arguably the most important television ending since Breaking Bad, the Iron Throne was finally decided.
Hatton has followed the show for years and PCR has been a watcher of the hype from afar… so what did we think as two entirely different viewpoints?
We talk the actual ending – the internet response – and a lot more on this, the 9th Episode of… The End: Game of Thrones

Dramatic-ish Readings: The Usual Suspects
Let us settle in once again for this, the 9th edition of Dramatic-ish Readings.
Five gentlemen all called in on a trumped up charge.. their lives forever changed by the mysterious Kaiser Soze.
Who is in the line-up? Well, for those of you familiar with this show, we’re sure you’ll be able to figure it out…. it reminds me of this time I was in a barbershop quartet back in Skokie, Illinois…
Avengers: Endgame
Much like Thanos, this review was inevitable.
First, this is a spoiler laden episode. From the Hulk turning purple to Captain America’s cousin Oliver coming in to save the whole of the universe – we pull no punches on the talk, so if you haven’t gotten to Endgame yet, sit this one out for now.
Beyond that, we’re doing what we do – and that’s jabber on endlessly about a movie that will change the way we think about movies – only insomuch as we have never ever seen something that took 20+ movies to make and 15 years to see to fruition. Love it or hate it – it is hard to not be impressed.
So join the Somethings for Episode 135 where we discuss at length Endgame – aka – Ant-Man’s Fantastic Voyage.
Well, join Podcast Rob and Hatton on Episode 134as they deep dive into the documentary Behind The Curve, available on Netflix, which discusses the possibility that this planet we all know and love (planet here meaning a celestial body moving in an elliptical orbit around a star.)
Please check out Livestream For The Cure on May 17th – 19th – great people with a great cause. We’ll be on Saturday, May 18th from 9:30pm-10pm, but we encourage you to check out all the great shows and segments streaming that weekend!
