So, here's what happened. Conor and Josh both watched a dumb movie about the end of the world (Moonfall, 2022), and then watched another dumb movie about the end of the world (Geostorm, 2017), and we wanted to talk about them, and here it is. Are they good movies? Well, yes and no. Does the real science matter? Certainly not. Does Los Angeles get destroyed again? Damn right. Running Time: 00:55:47...

Conor is (possibly) galavanting on the high seas, (allegedly) performing acts of piracy, and rabble rousing. Or he's not. We have no way to know for sure.

Thanks to iFanboy Patrons, it's Talksplode time. Mahmud Asrar came from Turkey to make a big name for himself in mainstream comics, and he paid his dues.
