Anyway, the second part of Stranger Things season 4 came out, so we cover that. I dunno, I kinda ruined the mood for myself. I migh...

Odds and Ends: We’re feeling very patriotic (and hungry) this week, not for any particular timely reason or anything. T.J. watched a lot of stuff this week, and he talks about pretty much all of it. From the Obi-Wan Kenobi show, to Sean Baker’s Red Rocket, to the Nicolas Cage movie that has that title you’ll forget if I say it here, to the new Top Gun.
