Episode 371: Movie News, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (NO Spoilers!), Past Lives
It's an incredible week at the movies, thanks to two extremely different new releases. First on Breakfast All Day, we have a spoiler-free review of "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse," a spectacular sequel that manages to surpass the Oscar-winning original. We also have a rave for "Past Lives," a delicate and melancholy romance from first-time writer-director Celine Song. They'll probably both end up being among the best films of the year. In news, we discuss Dwayne Johnson, Kim Cattrall, Kenneth Anger, "Oppenheimer" and more. And over at our Patreon, we have recaps of the "Ted Lasso" finale and episodes 7 and 8 on season 3 of "The Great." Thanks for starting your summer with us!

Episode 363: Movie News, Love Again review
"Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3" is the big movie of the week, but some smaller movies dared to share space in the multiplex this weekend. So we reviewed "Love Again," a romantic comedy/drama that hinges on a fatal car accident, some accidental texts and the music of Celine Dion. It's weird, but not nearly as weird as it could have been! In news, we discuss the Writers Guild strike, Carrie Fisher, Jamie Foxx, the "Beau Is Afraid" pajamas and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap this week's episode of "Ted Lasso," which we're unusually split on. Thanks as always for joining us -- and make sure you stop by our LIVE "Guardians" spoiler chat on our YouTube channel on Wednesday, May 10 at Noon PDT. We'd love to see you and hear your thoughts!
