Movie Podcast Weekly Ep. 397: Power Ballad (2026) and Masters of the Universe (2026)

Posted on June 12, 2026 by producer

Oh my hell, we’re releasing another episode out of sequence again. Yes, despite the fact that Episode 384 was the most recent release at the time of this recording, Jason Pyles, Kombat Karl “The Mad Irishman” Huddleston, and special guest Spawn of the Dead are back for Episode 397 of Movie Podcast Weekly. In this episode, we bring you Feature Reviews of Power Ballad (2026) and Masters of the Universe (2026), along with our usual Mini Reviews of What We’ve Been Watching Lately. Along the way, the crew discusses the passing of a podcasting pioneer who helped inspire MPW, Kevin Costner’s seemingly never-ending delay of Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 2, the return of a new season of Silo, Facebook settlement checks, and the ongoing misadventures and random thoughts of Spawn of the Dead.

MOVIE PODCAST WEEKLY is back with Episode 384! Join your fearless cinematic degenerates, Jason Pyles, Combat Karl “The Mad Irishman” Huddleston, Ryan Elliott, and a Guy Named Andy as they tackle Feature Reviews of Netflix’s gritty crime-thriller The Rip (2026), the hostage-drama throwback Dead Man’s Wire (2026), and zombie sequel extravaganza 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026). Along the way, the gang debates whether Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are secretly making movies just to hang out together, Karl gushes over Starfleet Academy while the internet apparently hates it, and Jay accidentally discovers that Stranger Things is … actually good? Plus: Surprise movie meetups, birthday shenanigans, Christian symbolism in horror films, and Karl uses ChatGPT to improve his résumé because apparently the machines really are taking over. Same MPW chaos. Same questionable judgment.

NOTE: MPW is now an “explicit” podcast.

Movie Podcast Weekly returns with its biggest and most anticipated episode of the year: Episode 382, our annual BMOTY celebration, where we count down and declare our Best Movie of the Year during our Top 10 Movies of 2025. This marks our first recording of 2026, and as always, the stakes feel high as your four favorite hosts reveal their personal rankings and reflect on the cinematic year that was 2025… Alongside our lists, we are honored to include a special Top 10 from “Mario in the Bar.” We count his list down right alongside our own for a full, festive rundown of the year in cinema.

As expected, the conversation goes off the rails in all the best ways. Jason dives into the unexpected joys of “side-boob” theater seating; Andy vents his growing frustration with modern moviegoing audiences; and Ryan reveals that his wiener is from Detroit. Karl’s Irish credentials are examined, though listener Paddy Glynn may still hold the crown. Jason also shares a winding tale involving Tom Rosenthal and Ron Tosenthal that lands with questionable success. Recorded back on January 6, 2026, this episode captures the chaotic, hilarious spirit that makes this show a yearly favorite. Join us!
