And now for something a little different to close out this Christmas season. A couple of weeks ago on Twitter, we had a request from listener Jim Roberts to discuss Andor, the latest Star Wars series on Disney+. Only at the time, we were kind of packed with some other shows that we had been…

e245. Cheesy Christmas Movies IV
It’s that time again. Ever since we started this show, we’ve been in something of a renaissance of Christmas Movies. It all started with films by the likes of the Hallmark Channel, but it has since spread to other networks, perhaps most notably Netflix. In the last few years we’ve made it a habit of…
e244. An A.I. Took Your Art, Daddy!
