Double Barrel Theatre With Matthew Kayal

Matt and Hat talk anime and AI.

In one of the longest episodes we discussed the Paramount release and leak issues with the Airbender movie. We may or may not have discussed the shortcomings of the story. Tangent warning btw, we meander.

Hat and Matt discuss new the video game Marathon by Bungie and discuss whether anything sets it apart from other Extraction Shooters, offers a specific feel a la a COD or Battlefield, or if it has hot characters. We completely forgot about resident evil 9.

Barcast! Talking Commercials, PS State of Play, and video games.

Matt and Hat talk football, new anime, and current events.

We start the year off on a crazy note. Is the MCU done? Anime recs. Happy new year.

Last podcast of the year. Lot of gaming news, what makes a AAA title vs an Indie, and some classic talking points.

After losing the recording device for two weeks we are back. We try to follow up on new Anime from the looking forward to section of the past, Hat explains the universe breaking flaws that make bad movies, and other things.

Not once but twice did we deplete two sets of batteries. We talk New York Comic Con and upcoming anime with some great tangents in between. Including Pokemon Legends being a badly made game.

We are back with a nice conversation about life, a lousy MMA fighter/streamer doing bad Pro Wrestling, and other stories in a conversation we didn't have enough battery life for.

Ever been out of gas as a conversation? Ever been so tired? Ever run out of things to talk about? That was this episode. AI talk. Pop Culture. Video Games.

Kayal is not 100% on this one but Hat showed up ready. Talking about the Denver art competition from 2022, Google Nano banana, Silk Song releasing after 8 years, and what the next evolution of platforming games would look like.

It's a wing night episode. Lot of catching up. Talking EVO for a bit. Trying to remember a comedy sketch to see if it was MadTV, Kids in the Hall, or Whitest Kids You Know. The batteries were near dead so this episode was under the threat of ending at any moment.

Superman vs Fantastic Four. International box office. Matt and Hat get ramen and brave the environment. Talking comedy and farce and Naked Gun.

Matt and Hat use a wonky microphone to talk about seeing Superman. It's a good movie but it has issues. It's the kind of comic book movie Matt has been waiting for. But is it the most intelligently done? Listen to the discussion.

Hat and Matt meet up ahead of Superman and discuss WB movies, twitch streamers, Tana from Cancelled vs Brendan Schaub, some greatest hits, and Iron Heart follow up where Matt says it's a great villain origin story.

Discussing why Ironheart is bad but a different bad than SheHulk but it gets better. Also, what's the cut off for good afternoon?

Matt and Hat discuss the new games news. How funny Felt that boxing was, what the cycle of try new stuff to back to basics is, Squirrel Girl beating Doctor Doom, and the new James Bond game is generic as it gets.

Talking Solo Leveling Warrior, Crunchyroll, Oblivion, GTA 6, and all on new recording device.

Fun one.

Hat and Matt meet up for wings and talk current events.

Talking Oscars, Bill Burr, and the loss of an internet friend.

AI tools, old video games, and China AI fail.

Matt and Hat break down the Batman and Robin drama, Sonic 3, and Superman.

Recapping the year that was. Movies, anime, the Paris Olympics. Was Berserk 2016 better than Uzumaki? Recorded in a quiet place for once.
