About This Podcast

Two brothers living in different parts of the state use the powers of the internet to not only communicate with each other but also conduct a fun experiment in the process. That experiment is to watch the exact same movie once a week, every week, for an entire calendar year. For 2026, they have chosen Detective Pikachu. Will they find new angles to talk about this film, or will they run out of things to say and go crazy two months in? Listen along to find out.
