We Barbenheimer-ed! And we weren’t the only ones: Sarah found a 20-minute concession line in Dallas, the loo in NYC was out of toilet paper, and the two films took in more than $500 million globally. Still, would America have cared as much had the cinematic landscape not been so scorched-earth? Would Oppenheimer have been better as a mini-series? Did a Ken doll get more screen time than all the women in Oppenheimer’s life combined? We ponder these questions, as well as:

* That time Tony Bennett wrote a hate letter to Sarah in the New York Times

* Nancy has “guy-dar”

* The Oppenheimer supporting actor who captivated Nancy

* The problem with biopics

* Which is scarier: the atom bomb or AI?

* How seriously should we take the gender politics of Barbie?

* How great is Ryan Gosling?

* Did one of us cry during Barbie? Hold on, did both of us?

* X marks the Twitter?

* The Eddie Murphy sketch that Nancy swears she’s never seen (but how?)

* The WWII book that made a bigger impact on Sarah than Oppenheimer
