Barry is frustrated. So much so that he will have to get an ice cream cone from the new ice cream shop in town. That’s what happens when you don’t watch Netflix and chill. T’Challa makes a cameo before heading off to do teenage things. The old comic shop the hosts patronized is about to be gone with the wind. The election is right around the corner, and the hosts share who they will vote for. No shockers there. We have a new Tumblr account, and this two-year season will conclude in December. Plus, AI has become a major topic of discussion.

Barry has more mouths to feed. No, he doesn’t have more children but now has two new cats besides his OG. LaToya’s guilty pleasure is Love Island (not the US version because what’s exotic about American accents?!). She also has 20 email accounts, more than any five people may need. Barry has a new book out, is looking forward to his upcoming semester break, and shares his thoughts on RDJ’s new role in the MCU. Plus, our website has been refreshed.

It’s two weeks into the New Year, and the hosts feel 2023 will be a good year. LaToya does a lot of talking in this episode, as she’s had a lot happen between recordings.

T’Challa is excited about a new D&D campaign he’s in and questions the hosts about their favorite Sci-Fi trope. And, of course, there is a lot of television to talk about.

True to their style, they share it with their listeners. Talk of entertainment turns to talk about sports, and finally, after T’Challa’s insightful question for the hosts, talk turns to people, culture, and equality.

While Barry continues watching television, going to the movies, and writing, his co-host says no to more than an hour of screen time.
