Well, well, well, if it isn’t my old friend, Movie Podcast Occasionally. How you doin’ you old pirate?! So good to see ya. I never thought I’d catch up with you again! Where ya been? No, really, it’s always good to get another episode, even when it’s been so long that Jay can’t remember what number the last episode was. Great show, everybody. This was another one of those episodes where I realized that I’d still listen even if nobody talked about movies and it was just three friends messing with each other. (“You know who else is a monopoly guy, Karl?”) Although it is nice that at least Karl still goes to the theater, even if Jay has lost his fastball and Andy doesn’t like movies anymore. It’s too bad that Jay stopped doing episode subtitles, like we used to get in 2022: “Christ was really into pugilism” would have been perfect for this one. Thanks for keeping the MPO expess rolling on down the tracks, fellas. It brightens my day every time that I find out the world’s longest podcast death rattle has eked out another wheeze.
