Behind The Timeline

Buckle up, Nerds! Lindsay was spicy tonight and it took both Scott and our returning special guest, Chris, to keep her in line. And it was an unsuccessful venture. But, you know what wasn't? This movie! From the Ewoks to the massive fleet battle to the love triangle Han made up in his head, we cover everything that made this movie great and decide whether it was actually as great as some of us rem...

Superman Robb Stark? Check. Sick as hell speedster? Check. Enough time to delve into the stories created by this already-pretty-long movie? ...Ehhhhh! Join Lindsay and Scott for their deep-diving review of Marvel's newest box-office contender, "Eternals (2021)"! Obviously, spoilers from start to finish with this episode so listen at your own discretion.

The greatest sequel made? In history, even? Oh, you better believe it! The first film in the 80's, "Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980)" is Scott's all-time favorite movie, not only in Star Wars, but the entire universe. Delve deeper than even we anticipated with Special Guest Chris as we break down the timeframe of Luke's training, the terror that is Vader and why the Jedi reall...

Sand-swept scenes of destruction, mystery and giant-ass worms encapsulate our newest episode as we labor under the heavyweight novel-turned-feature film that is Dune (2021).

Coming off the heels of the first half comes Part 2 for our spook-tacular Halloween episode!

Spooky times and sinister discussions abound as we embark on our biggest episode, yet! Join Hosts Lindsay and Scott, along with their friends Andrew and Matt for part 1 of this two-part dive into the horror films that made us who we are today. Because this episode is so long, we've provided a breakdown of when we discuss each of our favorite films. We hope you enjoy the chills and thrills as much...

Hi-ho, gang! It's time to play the music, it's time to light the lights - It's time to meet the Muppets on our Podcast, here, tonight! From their humble television beginnings comes "The Muppet Movie" (1979), the first of many feature-length films to come. A personal favorite of both Lindsay and Scott, this will absolutely not be our last stint into the wonderful, musical world of Jim Henson's most...

It's finally here. The moment Lindsay's all been waiting for! We've arrived at Rankin and Bass's 1977 animated... uhm... "masterpiece", I guess(?): "The Hobbit". The first film adaption of Tolkien's great works, this episode finds Behind The Timeline exploring the wonderfully chaotic story of Bilbo Baggins and his journey across Middle-Earth; Join us for all of Scott's questions and all of Lindsay...

Pullama... uhm. No, Poddama... Nah. No, I got it! Pass-...on this movie! Lindsay's first (and likely only) adventure with "Pete's Dragon" (1977) did not play out anywhere near as favorably as "Mary Poppins" had. And Scott's rewatch as an adult really brought new angles to this strangely long and musically-overstuffed partly-animated feature. But, we love you so here's the break down!

You'll never believe this - we're back! That's right, folks: Your number one source for all the things we thought were important in the world of Pop Culture is back with another episode. Today, we discuss the new GoT spin-off, even MORE WoT (if that's even possible) sneak peaks and the break down of a most hilarious addition to the Muppet filmography: Muppet Haunted Mansion!!

And right back to another Disney film we go! This time it's "The Rescuers" (1977), the cult-classic tale that actually became something of a nightmare scenario for Scott while re-watching it. Take a deep dive into the mind of The Cool Uncle as we try to wrap our heads around the craziness that was this movie!!

Back to back episodes revolving around Scott's favorite things? Whatta treat, I tell you! Despite Lindsay's best efforts to keep the topic on track, it surely is no surprise (it was inevitable) we go off on some long-winded rants and tirades as we review "Venom: Let There Be Carnage" (2021). Come take a listen!

"It was foretold that you would be here; Our long awaited meeting has come at last." We've arrive, ladies and gentlemen. The greatest pillar of Scott's personality has finally hit the timeline. You better believe we go off the rails more than a few times this episode so chart your navi-computers, secure your astromechs and punch it! We're going into "Star Wars - Ep. IV: A New Hope" (1977) for a wi...

It's back - the news! Well, ok so the news is like always happening but OUR news is back. Second episode and all. Join us as we discuss Disney+ Day, HBO Max and What If...? S1E8! IT STARTS RIGHT HERE!!

Oodalolly, oodalolly, golly what a ... fox? Idk, man... Lindsay's got the hots for this guy somethin' fierce! Find out why (and more) as we examine "Robin Hood" (1973) - and maybe deal with some not-so-suppressed anthropomorphic attraction.

Well... didn't really expect to return to another Disney film with no real lessons or teaching moment(s) so quickly, but here we are! "The Jungle Book" (1967) may have some serious bops, but that can't save it from our break down. Brace yourselves - we really dug into this one!

We've had a shift in policy that has changed our formula, some. Here's the narrative: This is the first episode of PCPB - Pop Culture Playback - where we will review Pop Culture news, shows and articles occurring in the week prior to posting. This week's episode includes "What If...? Ep 7" and a recap of the Emmy's. Enjoy, and let us know what you wanna see next!

Did y'all know Lindsay had never seen this? Because I did. And it scared the shit out of me when we finally arrived at "Mary Poppins" (1964). All I'm gonna say is: Thank god she loved it because I have no clue what I would've done.

Sup, Nerds! Welcome back around for another scoop of What If...? ice cream. Sorry, I don't know what came over me. That was bad. Anywhoodles, tonight we dive into the concept of Killmonger saving Tony Stark's life, and all the twists and turns that takes! Join us, won't you?
