Murderbot Is Fine, Everyone Else Is Screwed

This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl dig into episode 4 of Murderbot, where everyone’s favorite emotionally repressed robot finally snaps—soap opera hallucinations included. Then it’s time to kick off Movie Summer 2025 with early buzz (and warning signs) around Superman and Fantastic Four, plus some movie messiness that smells like panic reshoots. And finally, we take a steel chair to WWE’s latest release spree—R-Truth, Carlito, and maybe even The Miz? Say it ain’t so.
