Confidently Wrong

This is a jam-packed episode, perfect for your travels during the holidays! We reflect on what 50 episodes together has meant to us. We get a little animated with the Formula One season coming to an end. Most importantly we hand out the 2021 Confidently Wrong Awards for categories such as Best Video Game, Best Movie, and Best Rant. Check it out and let us know what you think. Don't forget to subsc...

Wesley brings on friend of the show BK to talk about how he sees the XBox Series X and Series S state of affairs. He wants us to consider if Microsoft can win the console war by losing the console war. Listen in to find out how. We also learn that the Matrix trilogy was a masterpiece (Editors Note: This is untrue.) and that it is possible to produce a podcast that requires no bleeping.  Twitter: @...

During Minute to Win It, each host gets 60 seconds to breakdown and react to a certain topic. Rapid fire takes on some recent games and shows! With the holidays on the horizon, we excoriate capitalism while participating in its most wonderful tradition--consumerism. We love getting gifts, y'all.

Savon trolls us with his latest Starting 5. The phrase "nuts crust" is said with complete sincerity. MCU's latest show, Hawkeye, debuted on Disney+ and we get hyper fixated on LARPing. Enjoy the pod!

Savon literally complains about the weather during his chance to talk about What We're Loving and Mike astutely points out that AAA games will be something to look forward to in 2022 on the Next Gen Consoles minutes after proving that he's a 48 year old at heart. We're back at it and enjoying the latest best episode of Confidently Wrong! 00:54 - What We're Loving 27:17 - PS5 and XBOX Series X - Wh...

Brian checked out Eternals in theaters and we pepper him with questions about whether it's hot or a flop. Get his non-spoilers thoughts in the first half of the show. We also tried to digest all of the fanfare from Disney Plus Day, including shows that caught our attention and whether Hayden Christensen can find redemption. Savon even tells us he's "hyped," but as per usual, sounds mildly curious....

Brian and Mike try to explain Dungeons and Dragons to Wesley and Mike falls in love with the latest film adaptation of Dune. Sorry Savon stans, Captain Vonnie sat this one out.

It takes a lot of guts to be a fan of something and completely disagree with the fanbase. Mike builds up the courage to do so in What We're Loving. Savon talks about this love/hate with the NBA 2K franchise, Wesley enjoys having someone cook for him, and Brian think National Parks are a waste of resources. We also try to diagnose what worked and what didn't in Marvel's recently concluded What If.....

We're not just pretty faces, we use our brains to unpack the layers upon layers of messaging encased within the latest binge-worthy show from Netflix. Squid Game proves capable of being an incredible watch with ridiculously high tension, while also holding a mirror up to society. This is a full prime rib dinner for us to sink our teeth into. Twitter: @confidently_pod Instagram: @confidently_pod We...

We share what we're loving right now including a grocery store, a show, NBA pre-season, and a ps5 game! Then Savon somehow manages to put together the worst starting 5 of all time - describing his favorite NFL team brands. The opinions expressed on this show are solely the opinions of their respective owners and does not represent the view of Confidently Wrong. Mostly because of how wrong Savon is...

The fully Confidently Wrong crew is back together and we stroke lightsabers for a great conversation about Star Wars Visions, a new short-format anthology series on Disney+. We also finish our discussion around Shang-Chi now that 3 out of the 4 of us have seen it! Enjoy!

Mad lad Will Katz guest stars to stir up the pot on our pod. We discuss what we're loving this week and 3 out of the 4 are not TV shows or movies.  Timestamps 1:30 - Getting to know Will 7:30 - 30 Rock 11:44 - Sony A7III 18:34 - Adult Legos (It's not what you think) 25:10 - Football Manager Twitter: @confidently_pod Instagram: @confidently_pod Website: https://confidentlywrong.simplecast.com Credi...

Between Covid and Hurricanes, only one of us was able to see Shang Chi in theaters so Brian gives us the low down on how much cringe Marvel's kung fu flick imparts. No spoilers in that discussion. After that we all get to appreciate just how delicious the animation and storytelling is in Marvel's Disney+ series What If...? A couple spoilers in the What If...? discussion.  Also, there's a moment ar...

We answer some questions submitted by listeners and end up learning about Smash Bros socializing, drooling over Brian K Vaughan, and Savon's refusal to send thank you cards. But the biggest news is that we talk about actual books we've actually read. For a bunch of illiterate goofs, we managed to work in some real thoughts on real books. We're just as shocked as you are. Twitter: @confidently_pod...

We take a look at DC's newest blockbuster, The Suicide Squad, and discuss everything from whether or not it's charting a new (better?) course for the DCEU to the possibility of a return for Will Smith's Deadshot. It was a silly and fun and nonsensical 2 hour thrill ride. But does that mean we liked it or hated it? And if you want to hear of a new food we invented, make sure you listen for Wesley's...

Captain Vonnie pilots our podcast star ship down memory lane and puts together his Starting 5 of Swaggy animated villains. In the second half of the show, we talk about What We're Loving (TM) and Mike and Wes get into an argument, again. This is our best episode, yet! Timestamps: 1:01 - Savon's Starting 5 - Swaggiest Animated Villains  17:36 - What We're Loving Twitter: @confidently_pod Instagram:...

Loki might well have been Marvel's strongest effort to date on the Mouse's streaming service, but are there unintended consequences to this new avenue of storytelling? Mike also brings us a new segment called "S**t Mike Hates." Beware! This episode has some cursing (all curses are bleeped out, but still, this is probably not a kid-friendly one). Twitter: @confidently_pod Instagram: @confidently_po...

We get together to share What We're Loving (TM) as individuals. Listen in to hear why you should be checking out the Corridor Crew, Clarkson's Farm, Desus and Mero, and Rick and Morty.  We definitely absolutely did not record this a couple weeks ago and try and release it today as if it's brand new. Definitely not.  Enjoy this fresh, just recorded episode. In the episode, Wesley references a podca...

Mike points out that eye rolling is to be expected in a seemingly forced romantic story-line for Loki, but that it makes total sense. Loki is a narcissist. We ask Savon if his view of the show has changed after 5 episodes. We also find so many bits of magic and brilliance and share them with you. Listen and subscribe!

It's highly likely that you saw Black Widow and thought, "that's acceptable." What choices did Marvel make that led them to such a satisfactory, if not satisfying, affair? We wade into this ScarJo vehicle and peel back the layers. Enjoy!

In a classic Confidently Wrong episode, we share What We're Loving (TM) and do some brief dissections on recent announcements: Battlefield 2042 and Tesla's Model S Plaid. Yes, the Tesla name is terrible, but is there something redeeming about the latest Musk Mobile? One of us got in his feelings and it's all to your benefit, dear listeners (100% it was Mike) .    Twitter: @confidently_pod Instagra...

In what might be the most anticipated Marvel story of 2021, we catch up with the God of Mischief himself, Loki, after he escaped from the Endgame timeline using the Tesseract (the security around that thing is, shall we say, lacking). Listen to find out what we liked, what we're wondering, and how we interpreted the 70s aesthetic straight out of your Lola's living room (sans plastic covering the f...

We talk about all the things were excited for this summer, including Marvel stuff, PS5 games, comics, and more! We also discuss whether DC can pull off something they've shown no aptitude for to date: a compelling and insightful story brought to life by talented film makers. Will this be their success story or is this just a tokenization cash grab? Listen and let us know what you think! Twitter: @...

You might think we had nothing to talk about so we did a mail bag episode. Not so. This was a chance to connect with those of you who have been talking to us about the pod and giving us your own takes. We received great questions and we yoked some moon shots into the upper deck. Just call us Karl Malone because we delivered. Send in your questions and we'll try to answer them. Caution to all Pelic...

The Knicks making the playoffs for the first time in a long time is the backdrop for this glorious episode that doesn't have anything to do with Jimmy Dolan's third favorite hobby. Only one of us is a Knicks fan and that fan is going to be distracted because the Knicks were playing an important game while we were recording. You didn't come here for an NBA update, though, did you? In this week's sh...
