Summary

The guys talk Stranger Things Season 5, do the bleak math of middle-aged drinking, and the perverse little happiness spike that follows a truly harrowing puke. Speaking of puke, the guys discuss the sacred childhood joy of sick-day daytime TV (Judge Judy supremacy, soap operas as emotional concrete) and finally, Daniel and Soren spiral into TV industry doom: Netflix getting into the podcast game, prestige TV existing only as a side quest for tech companies, and the impossible task of ending a beloved show without stepping on an internet landmine—aka Finale School.
