Where to begin with this one?! Team Liddell loses another man that Coach Couture is more than happy to welcome aboard.

We get the most taxing and least rewarding team challenge of the season.

There's a thief in the house as another chapter in the saga of Sam Hoger unfolds.

And, to top it off, we get an absolutely wild fight to see who advances to the semi-finals.

It’s such a shame that Jeremy Saulnier didn’t continue color-coding his movie titles. But how do we really feel about GREEN ROOM, and is it possible to even enjoy it in a world where white supremacists and their allies keep popping up on headlines? And how about that Patrick Stewart guy, huh? Does he have a future in acting? This and more - including an obvious lament at Anton Yelchin’s passing - in this Real Talk segment.

Ah, the long gone days of 2015. When white supremacists were a little more coy about their activities and actually tried to cover them up when things got too bad. GREEN ROOM pits the dumbest punk band alive (not for long) against the most British American neo-nazi you can find and the results were celebrated by the Tomatometer to the tune of a 90% score. Listen to Alex & Julio try to make sense of this multiverse Picard Vs Chekov battle!

In this episode, we mourn a king as Mario is unseated from the top spot of American Music.

Joe completely goes off on Dana White and the ideal of not leaving it to the judges.

Elsewhere, we relive some of the more well-known shots after the bell as well as infamous judges' decisions.

Sam Hoger stirs the pot as Diego Sanchez puts down another jabroni. Oh, and Chris Leben is back!

Is HALLOWEEN: RESURRECTION the worst entry in the franchise? Or is it merely the most inconsequential? Is it easier for a casual fan to enjoy its silly attempt to introduce Michael Myers to the wonders of the internet? And does Busta Rhymes’ performance make it all worth it anyway? The answers to this, and more, are in this Real Talk segment!

We can’t really quote any of Busta Rhymes’ iconic HALLOWEEN: RESURRECTION lines because they could get this blurb censored. But trust us, they are just one of the many reasons to celebrate Michael Myers’ foray into reality TV. Critics, boring as they can be, slapped a 10% Tomatometer score on the movie, not that any true fan cares. Listen to Alex & Julio as they argue against that rating and add one more step to their Haddonfield Nights journey!

Following Josh Koscheck's victory over Chris Leben, it's time for a reset as new characters emerge.

Coach Liddell is forced to hand over yet another member to Team Couture and we're treated to the best fight of the season (so far).

Elsewhere, this episode sees the triumphant return of team challenges and Willa Ford!

Alex got sick and our schedule needed a little bit of rearranging while he got better. Enter Jordan Manse, not heard on this show since his impressive performance during our Passengers episode, here to help Julio with a bonus entry! We discuss movies we liked in 2024, movies we are rooting for in the upcoming Oscars, and movies we are excited about in 2025. Enjoy!

(And don’t worry, the Halloween: Resurrection episode will be out in a week or so.)

The would-be money match of the season comes early as Chris Leben and Josh Koscheck square off to see who gets their bus ticket home.

On road to the bout, diversions into the rise of Dave Bautista as well as the historical dominance of the wrestling base in MMA provide interesting discussion.

Julio checks in on where he stands about half-way into the season as our story's next monster heel rests just ahead.

We already name-dropped Daredevil and Hitchcock in the Contrarians Corner write-up, so let’s reference our friend Peter Bogdanovich in Real Talk, because… wouldn’t he had loved this elevator pitch? But what happens when director Sriram Raghavan takes ANDHADHUN in a different direction? Do we have an overload of reversals here? What’s with the ending? We get into it in this Real Talk segment!
