The Awesome Village

Do you have fond memories of the cartoons you watched growing up? We do too. We’ll go through a list of the ones we remember and tell you which ones we think should keep to history, have already been adapted or should be adapted.

Taylor Swift, if you’re reading this, Glenn needs tickets…and throw one in for Greg while you’re at it. For the rest of you, this week you get our take on a bunch of tv and movies so you can decide what to see or skip. You’ll take The Last Voyage of the Demeter. You’ll burst the Beanie Bubble. You’ll go Across The Spider-verse. So sit back, relax and enjoy.

The sandwich is a time honored way of devouring great ingredients between two pieces of bread. Today’s discussion is which one of those combinations stands above the rest. You don’t want to miss this epic battle for the title of greatest sandwich.

Glenn is back and we’re glad because we have a lot to discuss this week. A Flash from TV and and Flash from the big screen. A Hemsworth vehicle. Strange and, dare we say it, New Worlds and we nominate the Awesome Villager for this week.
