Summary





This week, David's on vacation, so Patches, Katey, and Da7e convene to talk about Pixar's newest theatrical release Lightyear, which is…strange. Strange enough that they have to talk about the end (Listen for the spoiler gong to hop off and go unsullied). Then, Katey has a bone to pick with the release strategy of Good Luck, Leo Grande (which is on Hulu and not in theaters). Finally, all three talk Cha Cha Real Smooth the sophomore effort from Writer/Director Conner Raiff that is in theaters and on Apple TV+.
