Summary

America’s Got Tumult Glen Powell (Twisters) follows in the footsteps of Arnold Schwarzenegger by continuing the weird flex he began on a lethal reality show called The Running Man. Will TV producer Josh Brolin (Avengers: Endgame) cancel his star contestant before he sparks a political uprising with prepper Michael Cera (Arrested Development)? And does Stephen King’s downer dystopian novel from 1982 still reward audiences in 2025 when re-told by playful writer/director Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead)? Listen Now to hear the podcasters’ final words on this remake. 🎧 Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon Music | YouTube Android | Podbean | Tunein | iHeartRadio Pocket Casts | Podchase | Radio.com 🚩 Follow us: TikTok | Facebook | Instagram | Threads | BlueSky, | X (formerly Twitter) 💬 Join the Conversation: Facebook Group | Reddit ❤️ Support us: Patreon | Patreon Digital Shop
