Episodes

  1. Episode 22: Europa Report & Breakfast

    Our picks this week were randomly selected from our viewer's suggestion/unwatched list. Our movie was a found footage, sci-fi thriller from 2013, Europa Report. For our music selection, we took a listen to soul-pop band Lawrence's first studio album, Breakfast. Presented by The Worst Critics

  2. Episode 21: Sound of Metal & We Like It Here

    Layne made the mistake of thinking once again that his friends might like his music. This week we listened to our first jazz fusion album with Snarky Puppy's, We Like It Here. Spoiler alert, Layne gets incredibly offended by the opinions of his friends. Our movie selection was Sound of Metal. If...

  3. Episode 20: Sunshine & Third

    Another week of mixed reviews for both our movie and our album. First, we checked out 2007 sci-fi thriller, Sunshine. This one missed the mark a little bit with it's edgy cinematography and slow plot. Our album was Portishead's, Third, an experimental electronic album that one of us liked a lot...

  4. Episode 19: Eastern Promises & Mukiltearth

    We checked out The Fall of Troy's 2020 album, Mukiltearth. An album that was previously unreleased demos from when a bunch of teenagers formed a math rock band 18 years ago. On the bright side, Thankfully our movie pick for the week was much better. We checked out Cronenberg's Eastern Promises, a...

  5. Episode 18: EuroTrip & Tales of America

    Our movie this week made us question whether or not this is all worth it. Tune in to hear our scathing review of Eurotrip. Luckily, our album almost made up for it. We took a listen to Kenyan singer-songwriter Ondara's first studio album, Tales of America. Another week where one pick is...

  6. Episode 17: Her & Live Forever

    Layne tries yet again to get his friends to like his music, to no avail. Join us as we dive into Her, the the age old story of man loving an artificially intelligent being. Did such a fantastic movie manage to stick the landing? Our album this week was upcoming artist, Bartees Strange's first...

  7. Episode 16: Summer Wars & Just As I Am

    It took 16 episodes, but Noah finally made us watch an anime with his Summer Wars pick. Layne actually didn't hate it but John went wild with the critique. Our album of the week was another surprisingly decent listen, Bill Withers' first studio album, Just As I Am. Some simple and easy listening,...

  8. Episode 15: The Death of Stalin & Father of the Bride

    This week we checked out the political satire film, The Death of Stalin, and listened to Vampire Weekend's 4th studio album, Father of the Bride. Presented by The Worst Critics

  9. Episode 13: Lawless & Joy in the Wild Unknown

    For our movie, we've got Lawless. a 2012 film about three bootlegging brothers set in Depression-era Virginia. For our album, we check out Joy in the Wild Unknown by the Boston funk pop group, Ripe. SPOILER: John and Noah didn't love these picks. Presented by The Worst Critics

  10. Episode 12: Grosse Point Blank & Sailor

    This week we discuss John Cusack's hitman rom-com, Grosse Point Blank, and Steve Miller Band's first album, Sailor. Grosse Point Blank was so good that it replaced one of the movies on Noah's top 100 list, he's just not sure which one. We're now all waiting for that list. Sailor is our oldest…

  11. Episode 11: Gummo & UNLOCKED

    Long episode alert! We had tons of news to talk about, as well as our first unwatchable/10 movie, Gummo. Like seriously, we do not want anyone else to have to watch this movie. Please don't do it. We also listened to UNLOCKED by Denzel Curry and Kenny Beats. This was much better than the movie....

  12. Episode 10: Die Hard & Little Ghost

    We're back from a short holiday break with episode 10! Don't expect anything special just because we hit double digits, it's still just us giving our bad takes. On this episode, we try to answer the age old question, "is Die Hard a Christmas movie?" We also discuss Moonchild's 2019 album, Little...

  13. Episode 9: Warrior & folklore

    This week, we were joined once again by our friend Tristan Hill as we talked about Warrior, a movie about two estranged brothers who compete in an MMA tournament for money. AKA "another sports movie." We also discuss an album very near and dear to Layne's heart, Taylor Swift's first 2020 surprise...

  14. Episode 8: Mandy & RE-ANIMATOR

    This week we watched Nicolas Cage's 2018 drug-fueled action thriller, Mandy. What a weird experience for all parties involved, including Nic probably. We also listened to Everything Everything's 2020 album, RE-ANIMATOR. Presented by The Worst Critics

  15. Episode 7: A Star Is Born & Printer's Devil

    Our movie for this week was A Star Is Born and which begs the question: What is a musical? Maybe we'll get to that answer with the next musical John picks. We also talk about the 2020 Ratboys album, Printer's Devil. Presented by The Worst Critics

  16. Episode 6: Citizen Kane & Janktape Vol. 1

    Come one, come all to the podcast about movie that hates Citizen Kane. After all these years of hype and well, it's a movie alright. Too bad the Vatican won't be tuning in from now on. On the bright side, we all found some new songs to add to our daily listening with Buddy & Kent James' Janktape...

  17. Episode 5: The Seventh Seal & Mr Finish Line

    Layne hits us with two absolute banger picks once again (can you tell who wrote this description?) as we turn the hand of time back to 1957 and visit The Seventh Seal, then onto 2011 with Vulfpeck's album, Mr Finish Line. Presented by The Worst Critics

  18. Episode 4: Snow On Tha Bluff & BETTER

    This week we discuss a found footage movie and to be honest, John and Layne are still unsure if it was real or scripted. We also checked out Deante' Hitchcock's 2020 ablum, "BETTER." This may be our first week of overall positive reviews! Presented by The Worst Critics

  19. Episode 3: La La Land & Notes On A Conditional Form

    This week we discuss the election! ...just kidding. We discuss the movie/musical, La La Land and talk about albums that don't need to be as long as they are. Presented by The Worst Critics

  20. Episode 2: Arrival and Past Lives

    On this episode, we welcome our longtime friend, Tristan Hill, to the show. Listen as we discuss the movie, Arrival and.... another pop punk album? pop rock? what is actually the difference? Presented by The Worst Critics

  21. Episode 1: Frailty & It's All In Your Head

    For this week, we dove into the dark ages before the McConaugheissance with our review of Frailty. We also listened to The Undercover Dream Lovers' album, It's All In Your Head. Spoiler Alert: we kinda hated both. Presented by The Worst Critics
