Zero Credit(s)

In 2017, a studio had a vision: what if we completely botch a director’s vision by hiring another director to cut out 80% of what’s already been filmed and replace it with quips, jokes, and exclusively closeups to disguise the fact that we couldn’t bring back all the actors at the same time? That studio was Warner Brothers and the film is the theatrical cut of Justice League, a f...

In our second Texas-themed episode in a row, Governor Greg Abbott tries to kill us by announcing the reopening of the state. Last week, we covered how Texas tried to kill us through sheer incompetence of energy grid management and now this. Next week, he’ll probably announce the first annual purge night while cocking a shotgun. Look, we’d love to talk about other things like Wandavisio...

An artic blast the likes Texas has not seen for at least a decade or more hit last week and Henry and John are here to tell you all about being impacted by winter weather and incompetent leadership. They also sneak in just the tiniest bit of Snyder Cut coverage as we grow ever closer to the premier of the cinematic event of the century.

From January 24, 2020 to March 20, 2020, Zero Credit(s) dedicated one segment per episode to the Netflix Original Series Fast and Furious: Spyracers. With the advent of a season two and three (?!) of the aforementioned show, Henry and John made the executive decision to never cover a show in this manner again, choosing instead to do one dedicated episode per season from here on out. That being sai...

That’s right. Another year, another attempt to use the Big Game as a litmus test of cultural happenings. Does it ever really work? Eh, who is to say? All we know is the game was kind of boring and the commercials were also kind of boring. And in the middle of a pandemic, is it worth gathering 25,000 fans and who knows how many personnel into one close-quarters area for the sake of a kind of...

In 2018, Fast and Furious Rob Cohen directed a film called The Hurricane Heist. Set erroneously in Gulfport, Alabama, the 1 hour and 42 minute action-packed romp through weather and betrayal oozes out of the screen and into your eyes with an overall feeling of “well, this might as well happen.” Henry and John stumbled across this title quite by accident and decided to watch it based so...

It’s finally happened. The Stock Market has become interesting enough for us to pay attention and even learn a little about what the stocks are doing. A ragtag team of retail investors takes on a group of investment capitalists and hedge fund managers in a tale of suspense, market manipulation, and a whole lot of deep value. Who will come out victorious and cash out with the biggest amount o...

We don’t reveal a lot of things on this show, but one thing becomes very clear in this week’s episode. Henry doesn’t know a thing. It’s true. He’s been talking all this time, all these years, and he doesn’t know a thing. Come find out what Henry doesn’t know, although the tags will probably spoil a little of it. Also we discuss the current political landsc...

Sometimes in life, things don’t go your way. It’s frustrating, but that’s just how it shakes out. You do everything you can to make your vision come true by posting hateful things to twitter and arguing with your family on facebook, but these things can’t and won’t change the outcome of the presidential election. What are you to do? You have no options other than to c...

We recorded this episode on Tuesday evening, before the events that took place in the Capital happened on Wednesday. In light of said events, we’ll keep this brief, but it’s a new year and another chance to discuss self-improvement. What promises will we make ourselves only to fall short of our own expectations mere days later? Also, what’s a bean dad? We have everything, minus a...

It’s here, the last episode of 2020 and it’s time to render judgement unto the year and punish it for all its various crimes. Movies, television, and video games are the opening salvo before we dive into the wide world of listener suggestions. Will 2020 stand the test of time, or will it fall by the wayside and be forgotten forever? We hope it’s the latter, but the data’s w...

Look, it can no longer be denied. Zack Snyder is going to save cinema with his cut of Justice League. We all thought it was going to be Christopher Nolan’s Tenet, but that film was a false prophet that dragged cinema down into the dirt. Only Zack Snyder can pull off the movie event of the decade, neigh, the century to singlehandedly save the movie going experience. But no story is complete w...

In 2002, MTV productions took a chance on Justin Lin and let him direct what is now a cult-classic coming of age story based in Southern California. Justin Lin would go on to direct episodes of the cult-classic Community before moving on to more mainstream projects such as Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift and doing such a great job that he’s been entrusted with bringing the franchise to an end....

It’s December now and that can only mean one thing: more monolith related news. That’s right, you thought we left this all behind in November? You were wrong. Something is happening across the world. Something to deal with monoliths. Find out what’s happening before it’s too late by listening to this episode and you may have a chance for whatever’s to come. Then Henry...

John’s back and the world breathes out a sigh of relief since that means Jeff won’t even come close to ruining this episode. Thank god, right? Isn’t Jeff the worst? I hope he reads this. We get right into it with some topics I don’t remember but we eventually start talking about the upcoming sequel to Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel. Look, it’s Thanksgiving and I’...

It’s the brand new start of a fresh season here on Zero Credit(s) and Henry has brought on good ole friend-of-the-podcast and good-close-personal-friend Jeff to kick things off with excitement and expert knowledge. That’s right, the Zero Credit(s) resident expert Jeff makes a guest appearance to walk Henry through the perils and joys of home ownership now that Henry has traded a Victor...

After a month of hopping through time at the behest of the Zeitgeists, those perky time ghosts of old, the Zero Credit(s) boys are finally back together in the Victorian Manor they call home. With a special guest appearance of the official Zero Credit(s) Boy on the Street, we have a pretty retrospective episode about where the boys have been, how they used to be, and of course, laughing about the...

The journey is finally over, we’re finally back in the present day. That’s right, it’s October 31st, 2020 and Henry and Jamie are ready to hit the cultural zeitgeist hard with some quick facts about the moon. Fact #1: It’s wet. Everything is perfectly alright with this episode of the Zero Credit(s) Podcast With Henry and Jamie. In fact, Fact #2: Henry doesn’t freak ou...

In 2011, a man had a dream. A dream to create the best action/car/heist movie of all time set in Brazil, using an already established franchise and characters people already knew. Unfortunately, Hannah Barbara would not give up the rights to Speed Buggy, so Justin Lin had to fall back to The Fast and Furious Franchise instead. For fun, he brought along Chris Morgan, writer of the previous film, fo...

In their latest bid to obtain magic genie powers, Henry (CURRENT TRAPPED IN THE PAST) and John (ALSO CURRENTLY TRAPPED IN A DIFFERENT PART OF THE PAST) cook up a harebrained new holiday: Monkey Japes. Join them as they tell a series of meaningless lies all in the name TRYING TO GET BACK TO THE PRESENT Move over Justin Arbor Day and VARIOUS AGENTS OF THE TIMESTREAM, these fellas are shakin’ it up....

In our pilot episode, Henry and John discuss everything from hover JOHN IS TRAPPED IN THE PAST boards as the new form of segueways to the implications of HENRY IS NOT IN THIS EPISODE, IT IS ONLY JOHN WHO IS TRAPPED IN THE PAST the pineapple.   Subliminal messages.

Everything is normal in this perfectly normal episode. We haven’t let the perverts come in with their twisted notions of what should be happening this time of year and ruin everything. Not here on Normal Credit(s). No way. In this normal episode of Normal Credit(s), we’ve got a pretty good and normal time for you all, as long as you aren’t one of those perverts who wishes everyth...

Valiant comics may not be as well known as your run of the mill DC or Marvel comics, but they still exist and with Marvel being over and DC being…DC, Valiant Entertainment is in a prime position to take over the superhero space with their particular brand of superhero. To kick things off we have Bloodshot, starring Vin Diesel, Eiza Gonzalez, Guy Pearce, and Winston from New Girls. Will this...

If you’re looking for something other than JK Rowling discussion, I guess you could like watch Bloodshot in preparation for next week. Cause this week, it’s all JK Rowling stuff surrounding the release of her new book that she publishes under a man’s name, but we still all know it’s her. I thought the point of a nom de plume was to be anonymous, not known to be the other pe...

Management here. Henry’s going through some things, such as screaming alone in a room. Because of this, he did not do the following: tell the intern to right a description of the episode, come into the office all week, shower, create an episode title. As such we, Management, have taken over these duties. Please enjoy our perfect attempt at nailing the Zero Credit(s) brand: John hates the Tit...
