I don’t want to criticize OUT Magazine but Peacemaker has been explicitly bisexual for two seasons and arguably a movie.

Trying and failing to discreetly take a picture of my Peacemaker shirt. My outfit is sending the message that I would like to talk about Peacemaker.

I’m really enjoying the new season of Taskmaster even though there aren’t any contestants in my two favorite categories: Little Shit and Absolute Maniac. (Little Shits: Mae Martin and James Acaster. Absolute Maniacs: Bob Mortimer and Jason Mantzoukas.)

It’s going to be funny when the Amelia Earhart files also name Trump as a pedophile.

In principle I support a Disney boycott. But if you’re, say, writing a book about Daredevil, there are some logistical issues with cutting off access to Daredevil material. Serious question: what charities should I donate to to offset my Disney+ and Marvel Unlimited subscriptions?

Hello Friends. I am ecstatic to announce that I have reacquired the entire Spontaneanation catalogue and effective immediately you can find every episode wherever you get your podcasts.

Don’t get drunk and fight each other.

New podcast! I am disappointed in a sequel to a perfect movie and trying desperately not to think about the outside world or my own feelings! fedtalks.podbean.com/e/episode-20...

Episode 208 - We're All Doing Our Best Here | FED Talks

We're getting back to the original premise of the show this week (EJ talks into a microphone to get away from crushing depression). There's a little bit of TV talk but mostly disappointment in the sur...

If the Doughboys don’t have Scott Aukerman and Sprague the Whisperer on the show to cover TMNT pizza, I will never listen to the show again.

New podcast! I catch up on some recent shows and watch some movies. You know what movie rules? Jaws. fedtalks.podbean.com/e/episode-20...

It's a media catch-up week with new seasons of Peacemaker and Only Murders in the Building, plus Alien: Earth and The Paper. And over on the movie side, the 50th anniversary re-release of Jaws makes i...

I’m not saying he should win, but if John Cena got an Emmy or Golden Globe nomination for Peacemaker, I wouldn’t be mad.

New podcast! Tim Kenny returns to talk about Superman, the rebooted DCU, and how it all affects Peacemaker. If you want to hear way too much about obscure DC characters with recent screen cameos, we’ve got you covered! fedtalks.podbean.com/e/episode-20...

Episode 206 - Superman with Tim Kenny | FED Talks

Tim Kenny returns to the show to talk about Superman (2025). We both liked it and we have a lot to say! Too much? Possibly! We also talk about the Peacemaker season premiere and the transition from on...

Listen if Giuliani, Clinton, and Trump make the rule of three, I'm ok with it.

Bill Clinton was spotted at the airport in New York with a defibrillator among his luggage.

New podcast! A preview of upcoming things I’m excited about. I also watched Long Story Short and Nobody 2, a movie that claims Sharon Stone “has eradicated entire bloodlines”. It’s rad! fedtalks.podbean.com/e/episode-20...

Episode 205 - A Very Limited Fall Preview | FED Talks

This week, EJ looks at some of the September and October releases that are on his radar, for good or for ill. (Spinal Tap 2 seems, if we're being honest, ill-advised.) Plus, some talk of Long Story Sh...

This week on Scott Hasn’t Seen, Sprague was talking about The Leftovers and referred to Scott Glenn’s character as Stick (his Daredevil character). This is a perfect intersection of my interests.

Episode 204 - A Coward Watches Weapons | FED Talks

This week, EJ enjoyed a movie that was probably too scary for him and feels like he's missing important cultural context for Shin Godzilla. We also talk about the second seasons of Platonic and Twiste...

I have to agree! No idea where to rank his involvement with Hollywood Handbook. Like, grading on a curve they’re less mean to him than they are to most people.

Multiple friends have said this King of the Hill character looks exactly like me, and I don’t know how to feel.
