Most people just say “don’t have kids”. Jennifer Kent shot a whole movie to make her point. And whether THE BABADOOK worked as contraceptive for a whole generation or not, it was certainly effective in boosting Kent’s career and wowing critics and audiences. Listen to Alex & Julio pick apart this brutal tale of pop-up books, senior bingo, and hatred for your own child.

Oh, and join us at this year’s Livestream for the Cure! Our segment will be on 5/17 at 4pm CT.

We've reached the end of the road. We find out where our show's main rivals (Josh Koscheck & Chris Leben) ended up as well as discuss the paths our four finalists (Kenny, Diego, Stephan, and Forrest) took following the finale.

We collect our thoughts and experiences from this adventure and ask ourselves "Was this truly the ultimate?"

Was anyone asking for the Firefly Family to get a happy ending? Or is the entire Firefly Trilogy a wicked exercise in extreme button-pushing? Once again, we try to figure out what the deal is with Rob Zombie: is there a point to his movies or is he just having fun being disturbing? All this, and more, in this Real Talk segment!

Also, once again: don’t forget to join us during this year’s Livestream for the Cure, 5/17 at 4pm CT!

Much like the return of the Firefly family in 3 FROM HELL, Roberto Zombirelli is back on The Contrarians, against all odds. This is what happens when we hit goals during the Livestream for the Cure! So listen to Alex & Julio do their best to defend this 58% rotten Tomatometer victim, grappling with a wonderfully unhinged Sheri Moon performance and the wildest Clint Howard cameo!

What a journey it's been. Now, we make sense of what became of The Ultimate Fighter. Who won the Couture-Liddell showdown?!

If any movie was going to make Alex go easier on Ansel Elgort, a Señor Spielbergo joint would have the best chance to do it. But whether Baby Driver finally wins a Contrarian over or not, there’s a lot more going on in the new WEST SIDE STORY, and we’ll have a serious conversation about it in this Real Talk segment. Listen to find out Julio’s proposed fix to the third act and more!

Steven Spielberg has reached the point in his career where he just makes films for himself. On the road to the ultimate indulgence of directing his own biopic, he stopped to remake one of his favorite movies, and his version of WEST SIDE STORY was Oscar-baity enough to score 91% on the Tomatometer! So listen to Alex & Julio as they lament how a gifted filmmaker wasted his time on an Ansel Elgort vehicle, and wonder if musical numbers are meant to soften racism.

The road we've taken has brought us to this... The first ever Ultimate Fighter finale. A historic night on Spike TV that saw three fights and one Kevin James.

In the Middleweight finals, Diego Sanchez fights Kenny Florian. In the Light Heavyweight finals, Forrest Griffin and Stephan Bonnar have a moderately well-known contest. And, in the Main Event, Ken Shamrock returns to the octagon to test up-and-comer Rich Franklin.

What does Cameron Diaz's failed reality show have to do with any of this? Tune in to find out!

In our last episode before the finale, we get TWO fights! Prior to that, we have to ensure Josh Koscheck is still alive.

Sam Hoger enters the cage to face Forrest Griffin while Mike Swick and Stephan Bonnar clash in a Team Green showdown.

And, fear not, we get into several lengthy detours regarding Professional Wrestling.

People loooooooooove SOME LIKE IT HOT. Does it belong on Billy Wilder’s Mt Rushmore though? How does it compare to the other Wilder movies we’ve covered on the show? What’s it like, watching a classic Marilyn Monroe performance after having experienced her turn on THE MISFITS? Will this be our next Criterion purchase? The answers are in this Real Talk segment!
