I don’t like to talk about things that aren’t related to comedy podcasts or Daredevil, but my mom passed this morning and I can’t handle taking to anybody that I know in person so I’m your problem now.

Who Wore it Best? I mean, obviously Jon Hamm did. Why would I even invite the comparison?

Everything I’ve heard about the current season of Euphoria makes me think everybody involved should be in jail. Except maybe Zendaya.

Armando Iannucci’s vibe on Taskmaster is not at all what I expected. I sort of assumed he’d be a profane grump just letting loose JLD / Capaldi-style. He’s a delight!

Adult podcast host seemingly legitimately angry that Grogu “was created to make money”. You, sir, are in for a surprise about the vast majority of Star Wars. (Babu Frik was obviously a labor of love.)

Imagine getting rich off of being a performative leftist and then not only buying a Cybertruck but making an announcement.

Was Snopes always right wing or this is a new thing? Compare their usual “Yes, but Trump was clearly joking” to this hyper-focused bad faith reading of “the actual GOP website never sold this merchandise, therefore you can’t say that Republicans did”. www.snopes.com/news/2026/05...

I had never heard the phrase “catching print” before yesterday and now I’ve heard it explained on two podcasts. What have we become?

17 years of @cbbworld.bsky.social! (And 16.9 years of me listening every week.) My favorite podcast for as long as I’ve been listening to podcasts. It’s introduced me to so many interesting people, helped me make real life friends, and just generally delighted me since 2009! Happy anniversary!

This is the final day of the MaxFunDrive, so I’m offering some deep sincerity: we need your support. If our shows brighten your lives, please join us today. maximumfun.org/join

Jarring to hear Jamelle Bouie guest on a movie podcast and not mention Sonic the Hedgehog even once.

“And now to take a big swig of water and look at the news for the first time today.”

Without downloading anything new, where are you mentally?

If you get traumatized while voluntarily attending a leisure event run by Nazis a possible downside is a lack of sympathy.

Everything is terrible right now but it’s also the @maximumfun.org drive and these people are helping me through dystopia. @flophousepodcast.com is one of my very favorite podcasts and the bonus episodes are enough to justify the $5 a month all by itself. I’m partial to the FlopTales episodes…

Truly I am not certain I have ever laid eyes on this guy or anything he has written or any video he’s appeared in

Trans rights. Prosecuting the current mafia state. Declaring and prosecuting the Heritage Foundation as a hate group dedicated to overthrowing the government. These are starters. You don't run on these as a baseline, I'm voting for someone who will. Done with the DNC's craven complicity.

There’s a Mrs. Bongo!

I don’t want to spoil it, but there’s a fun surprise if you review Normal on Letterboxd.

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for

Mary Holland’s IMDB page of CBB appearances is poetry.

New podcast! I try to make sense of the Mario Galaxy Movie and the way it’s incredibly well-made but also not very good and actually that’s a positive review. fedtalks.podbean.com/e/episode-23...

Happy Wet Day to all those who celebrate! (I know this is all dudes but you don’t want do an image search of women or female characters you like +”wet”)

Big day for people from my Monday podcasts showing up on my Friday podcasts.

The level of sicko you have to be just to make sense of this title…

New podcast! I talk about my vacation and my best friend (pictured). Also, there’s some Spider-Man trailer talk because I like to stick to my core competencies. fedtalks.podbean.com/e/episode-22...

The new season of Jury Duty has me questioning how they manage to find participants who don’t immediately recognize Lisa Gilroy.

Vacation is over so I had to say goodbye for now to my best friend Coco. He got a haircut and a bandana just for my visit!

I couldn’t believe it, but I just saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada. And maybe you think, being a werewolf, his hair would have been unkempt. Buddy, buckle up for this one….

I promise, this is a very good Tom Waits reference.

If you’re in the San Diego airport and you need, I assume, an adult man wearing a wig and painted-on freckles to play a six-year-old, may I suggest the Univision store?

New podcast! This seems like a good time to talk about Bruce Campbell being awesome. fedtalks.podbean.com/e/episode-22...

My hot take is that I don’t like Blank Check’s March Madness because every podcast is worse when they acknowledge the opinions of the audience. You can mention the freaks on the Discord but then move on!

New podcast! The Coen Bros Film Festival begins with Blood Simple and the Sam Raimi collaboration, Crimewave. I promise I’ll have guests for future episodes! fedtalks.podbean.com/e/episode-22...

Have I watched every Jason Statham movie? Yes, I have. Have I ranked them? Also, yes. Am I proud of this? Uncertain.

Is it too late for Scott Hasn’t Seen to invite me on the Poetic Justice episode so how I can talk about how I got beat up in the parking lot after seeing the movie the day before I started college, so I showed up on day one with two black eyes?

I love when Scott has to interact with video game characters - he has absolutely no context for them. Let’s get a CBB Round Table with Resident Evil Merchant, Duke Nukem, and the “Gavin!” guy from Red Dead Redemption.

Every year I only remember to make Crank-themed valentines when the actual day comes around. It’s my own personal CBB Best Of numbers never getting re-recorded.

There is no evidence that moderate Republicans exist, but establishment Democrats would torch the entire trans community to reach just one of those unicorns.

What’s with all the references to 47 in Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die? Is it a JJ Abrams shoutout or is it a way to invoke you know who in a dystopian movie without the bummer of his actual name?

I was expecting another deranged Connor Ratliff classic, but this was a really thoughtful discussion. Podcasts are good!

Because I’m dead inside, this was my first reminder that Valentine’s Day is coming up.

Inside of you are two wolves…

Top three celebrity guests in the event of a Muppet Show revival: -John Cena -Jason Mantzoukas -Natasha Lyonne

I have at least two nephews whose names I don’t know, but I also texted somebody “Lily and Tim are having a baby!” My priorities are healthy and make sense.

New Podcast! The Jason Statham Film Festival returns with Shelter! Plus, a look at recent good TV and the rad Send Help! fedtalks.podbean.com/e/episode-22...

Got my new CBB action figures from @figurecollections.bsky.social - Fourvel is so tiny and stabby! Also, here’s my Series 3 wishlist - Bean Dip, Maxwell Keeper, Quiet the Mime, Bob Ducca, Margery Kershsaw and Donny Gary.

Between Vic Michaelis on Ponies and Carl Tart on Wonder Man, CBB alumni are crushing it on streaming this week!
