The podcast of wild speculation and film examination. We pick a movie that at least one of the podcast members has not seen before. Using only the description of the film the podcast members speculate on what they believe will or will not be in the movie. We stop the podcast to watch the movie and come back immediately to discuss the film and how it met or subverted our expectations.
