This week, Matt and Quintin retreat back to the bunker to chat about Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt Season 3. Matt also talks about watching the first season of the Tracey Wigfield created/Tina Fey produced new show, Great News. It's a short one, and somewhat rambling, but that's what happens when you get all your information from packages of government butter!

This week, Matt lets Quintin rant and rave about Jordan Peele's directorial debut Get Out for about an hour. Eventually, they escape the Sunken Place and talk about Logan, Hugh Jackman's last stand as Wolverine. You know, because those are two films that are totally related in, like, a completely untenuous and not-at-all forced way! In case it wasn't obvious, there are a whole bunch of spoilers for both movies, so check them out before you listen.

This week, Matt and Quintin finally make good on their promise/threat and talk about Ernest Cline's debut novel, Ready Player One. So boot up your console, get your haptic gear on and get ready to listen to listen to Matt purge six months of cached rage (and possibly hear Quintin audibly shrug).

This week, Matt has a whole bunch of opinions about the Walt Disney World Resort. He's taking umbrage with a blog that decided to rank every attraction in the parks and takes Quintin along for the ride! So wait in the download queue and hop on board to hear two grown-ass men talk about amusement park rides and complain about a semi-anonymous person on the internet! So not much different than a normal show, really.

This week, Matt and Quintin are doing something nobody on the internet has done at all: they have a conversation about Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. That's right, the obscure independent movie by scrappy upstart Marvel Studios starring virtual unknowns like Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Bradley Cooper, Vin Diesel and Kurt Russell! You'll find out who all of these nobodies are (and more) if you listen! Somehow, despite claiming they don't have much to say about the subject, our hosts managed to talk for an entire hour about Star Lording and Grooting in and around the galaxy.

This week, Matt and Quintin talk about the new-ish Netflix show Thirteen Reasons Why, based of the YA novel by Jay Asher. And hoo boy, oof, this one was a doozy. The show tackles some incredibly serious issues like bullying, abuse, rape and suicide. As you can imagine, it's not your usual light and fun episode of the podcast, but we figured it was worth talking about.

This week, Matt and Quintin tap into their inner creepy, disgusting kid monsters and talk about Topps trading card properties that were turned into movies. All two of them! First up, the 1996 Tim Burton cult classic Mars Attacks! And to be completionists, they also take out the trash and talk about 1988's absolutely insane The Garbage Pail Kids Movie. So crack open this podcast pack, look over your checklist and hope for some rares. All that's missing is a stale piece of gum that tastes like sugary cardboard!

We're back after a three month absence to talk about the hot new, three-month old release Rogue One: A Star Wars Story! Matt has some grievances while Quintin is ready to parry with retorts like a Guardian of the Whills. Papa Erso would be so proud of his little Stardusts!

After a several month absence, Matt and Quintin are back with Stuff...'N Things! They start out the new year and by running down their top 7 things of the previous 12 months, from movies to music, games to TV. 2016 wasn't ALL bad, so let's focus on the positive, before we crawl back into our podcast hole for another few months!
