This week in addition to developing the perfect genre title for the ever growing library of retro inspired battle royales, we also glance back to the original twelve seasons of Law and Order SVU and the career of Elliott Stabler as it relates to his return to television in Richard Wolf’s latest offering: Law and Order: Organized Crime.

Kick back and strap in as the Say Report explores the fantasy brought to reality, perhaps by a Motherbox, that is Zack Snyder's cut of Justice League appropriately titled "Zack Snyder's Justice League"

This time capsule episode sees us traveling back to the year 1990 in an effort to finish out the films that comprised the immediate cinematic legacy of Tim Burton's "Batman" with a deep exploration of Warren Beatty's, oft-forgotten, adaptation of that classic detective of the comic strips Dick Tracy.

This week we discuss some shared moments between Devon and Sejohn on the stage of life before transitioning into a discussion about imported television shows during the pandemic and how they differ from the American ideals of standards and practices

Another visit to a film of the past that inexplicably became tangled with the very fabric of Pop Culture Reality. Join us as we meet Gordon Bombay and the Ducks to see how they launched a Disney family sports film revolution

Then Sejohn helps shift the narrative to modern gaming options with a deep discussion on the type of game Nintendo delivered with Bowser’s Fury and what Microsoft is hoping to accomplish with the Xbox Series X.

After getting a political monkey off his back Devon is finally ready to discuss all of the new shows coming out that would have been released back in the Fall of 2020. Meanwhile Sejohn has spent his time farming on the beach and exploring the brand new world of Super Mario.

Devon discusses his various accomplishment since we last recorded and Sejohn plays Devil’s Advocate regarding the difference between main character and protagonist

We kick off our fifth season by revisiting those things we loved and hated from our youth to see if those opinions still hold true.

Sejohn streamed and Devon dreamed in this episode that covers the year that first week of 2021 has been while also discussing personal calendar systems, international broadcast rights, and the changing of the title of richest guy in the room.

It’s the first episode of 2021 but more importantly it’s Devon’s Birthday... and he’ll cry if he wants to! And who could blame him when the topics include WW84, Demon’s Souls, Transformers Earthrise, and of course Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition.
