Who the hell posts descriptions for this show at six PM? Off in the distance you might faintly hear us. Oh boy, six PM, time for another show description! Then the sounds of a comically large wooden mallet crushing an alarm clock. Not because that’s the only way to silence it but because big alarm clock has convinced us that they are disposable.

Let’s look over the stack of papers on our desk. Doesn’t seem anyone has died too recently but everyone is talking about scary weather. So it must be summer and that puts us right in the mood to talk about frightening beaches where people die suddenly. No, we’re not talking about sharks or any famous movies featuring them. We have The Fog(1980).

You might find leprechauns ridiculous and unbelievable. Little gnomish folk with magical powers that hide gold at the end of rainbows? Dismissed with prejudice, you would say. Just as you might dismiss that we would do another manga episode. Yet here we are, in all our glory. So if we can come through, who is to say, truly, that you will never see a lookalike that could hawk you a sugary cereal product in person? You won’t but as a wise bard once sang, don’t stop believing.

You might not think that we ever get stuck for movies to pick for the show. What with Hollywood alone having been making films for over a century. Giving us a library of media you probably couldn’t watch in your lifetime without sacrificing your personal life and a significant portion of sleep. But that does happen and then we hear about an actor’s passing and it reminds us of their work.

Prepare for stubble, shave in your bubble. Take a walk along the rubble. Uh, I think we’re out of rhyming words for the moment. And we’re not going to run to some generative LLM for help. So you’re stuck with this free form nonsense we cobbled together for the intro of this description. Enjoy it for the artisan goodness or badness as it were. Just know a real, dumb, human made it by punching a keyboard.

Either we’re buying in bulk or we have a coupon. Because once again we have another twofer. Perhaps it’s time to open a bulk review store where you can roll around. It might do gangbusters if we offer hotdogs and soda for a competitive price. Perhaps something like a dollar thirty five to undercut someone else. So if you find us dead, a certain CEO is responsible for it.

Double your pleasure, halve your fun. A couple of morons are waiting for you. That’s right, we have a pair of manga just like you have come to expect. That means it must be time for a manga review show. And this time we’ve got a themed episode that will approach very sensitive topics in the way you’ve come to expect from us. Shout out to Bear again for being so passionate that he sent these along for us to do.

Saddle up them horses and get ready for a rodeo. Or at least a mechanical bull and a burger from Hardees. This will be more relevant than other references to Western cowboy culture that you could imagine. Forget your nudie suit, turn off your reruns of Grand Ol’ Oprey, and join us for what is most certainly a take on ranching. We have Tokyo Cowboy[2023].

Are you ready for the real struggle session? Everyone get into a circle and we’re going to debate the merits of stuffing or potatoes. And if you say anything other than both then you are wrong. Your assets will be seized and your family consigned to the gravy mines for the next seven generations. That’s how we get that wholesome nestle taste that means family. And family is

It kind of sucks when we get a themed episode thrust upon us. Because we’re very bad at making a theme. Then someone dies and we comb over their catalog for something interesting. Which can also make for a bad episode. So we decided to do two of Val Kilmer’s lesser discussed films together. It doesn’t hurt that we’ve seen both before. That made this a bit of a refresher.
