Episodes

Sunday Show: We Need Your Questions!!! 09.03.2025 1:04:28

Here it is! "We are Canadian" - the updated Molson Beer commercial from the 1990s: https://youtu.be/_OzbmriDgQc?si=90TX3e9_oM73fr8T

Profiler: 113 (The House that Jack Built), 114/115 (Shadow of Angels) 06.03.2025 1:15:25

The show has finally got some momentum! Will it last? Plus Dr. Redmond's crazy prediction!

Sunday Show on Tuesday: Gretzky Better Not Show His Face Around Here 04.03.2025 1:40:44

Dan was really, really upset. Somehow, he couldn't manage to upload the episode until this morning. Then again, I finally managed to vote in the Liberal Leadership election yesterday!

Profiler: 111 (Doppelganger), 112 (Learning from the Masters) 27.02.2025 1:28:15

Rewriting episodes is so much fun! However, the real problem is that the show doesn't treat Jack as a real threat

Profiler: Episodes 109 & 110 20.02.2025 1:13:02

Dr. Redmond seems to be warming slightly to this show, while Dan is far more on board.

Profiler 107-108 - Night Dreams, Cruel and Unusual 13.02.2025 1:06:08

Not enough Jack and A. Martinez is our conclusion :-)

Sunday Show - We're the Second-Best! 09.02.2025 1:54:11

Until 45:30, we ramble about being 2nd place in a list of the best Criminal Minds podcasts and other stuff. Then we get political. Warning: Dan is just #$%^ angry about what is going on in America!

Profiler 105-106 - Unsoiled Sovereignty, Modus Operandi 06.02.2025 58:23

Pleasantly surprised at how good these episodes were.

Profiler 103-104 - Unholy Alliance, I'll Be Watching You 30.01.2025 1:12:07

These 2 episodes are so blah that you will hear us segue into a discussion of David Hasselhoff and the Berlin Wall!

Profiler 101-102 - Insight, Ring of Fire 23.01.2025 1:22:49

Dr. Redmond is still not convinced but will give it some latitude - after, all it was the 90s!

Yakuza Season 1 16.01.2025 1:57:36

Yakuza, the game (Dan) vs. Yakuza the TV series (Sheila). Nobody won!

Those Who Kill: Darkness 09.01.2025 1:03:18

This reboot of The Danish Those Who Kill left us so unimpressed that we decided that we wouldn't watch the next (or subsequent) season.

Those Who Kill (Danish) 106: Shadow of the Past 02.01.2025 1:07:50

Burn It All Down. That's what they did and thus, we hated this ending to the show.

Squid Game Season 2 28.12.2024 1:43:22

OMG!!!! What a season, We discuss the complicated ethical issues at the heart of this season. We are thrilled and can't wait for season 3

Those Who Kill (Danish) 105: Solitaire of Death 26.12.2024 1:24:50

Not the horrible end that was the American version but still a problem. We have one more week to go: the movie!

Those Who Kill (Danish) 104: An Eye for an Eye 19.12.2024 1:06:19

A perfectly good crime story about the Russian and Lithuanian mobs. I guess everyone needed a bit of a breather after the prison episode.

Those Who Kill (Danish) 103 - Bad Blood 12.12.2024 1:10:34

For the first time, we are issuing a trigger warning and a sexual violence warning - ignore this episode if you want. It is a brutal prison episode beginning with the first scene.

Those Who Kill (Danish) - 101 102 05.12.2024 56:28

This is the original "Those Who Kill". Similar story line but we posit quite different in character motivations. We shall see going forward.

CROSS - Season 1 28.11.2024 1:10:19

Loved it, loved, loved it. Sure there were some plot problems but who care!

Those Who Kill U.S.: Ep. 110 (Surrender); Show In Review 21.11.2024 1:00:24

Totally frustrated by the last episode of a brilliant show. They should have "crackered" it! The X-Files episodes discussed at the end of this episode were aired earlier on August 8th, 2024.

Those Who Kill U.S.: Ep. 108 (Insomnia); Ep. 109 (Untethered) 14.11.2024 1:22:19

Two amazingly stressful episodes to take us to the finale. How will this show end?

Those Who Kill [U.S.]: 106 (Always After), 107 (A Safe Place) 07.11.2024 1:04:07

A two-episode retelling of "The Fox". This is why season 16 and 17 of Criminal Minds are so much better than the 1st fifteen seasons - a lot more time to tell the story.

Those Who Kill [U.S.]: 105 (Souvenirs) 31.10.2024 58:55

We weren't ready for the revelations, but what an episode!!

Sunday Special - Politics Are Depressing, But Gublerween is Wonderful! 28.10.2024 1:02:25

Gublerween: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WbB1YjsSB4 It looks like the NDP have a 1 or 2 seat majority in B.C. And Dr. Redmond's fault that this is 1 day late!!!

Those Who Kill: 103 (Rocking the Boat) & 104 (Sunday) 24.10.2024 56:37

The show continues to rip our heart out!
