It's another week and there are plenty of movies to dive into. I am still playing catch-up with 2023 films to get myself ready for the Sheist Awards.

It's time to get back in the groove. I see a lot of movies but have less time to write about them as a result. So, I'm taking some of the spirit of the Release Radar that I do on the website and bringing that to the podcast. It's going to be an evolving experience as I pin down exactly what and how I want to do it, but this felt like a good place to start. Please enjoy.

The Steelers cashed in a W and held the under by a half-point, but I narrowly missed the trifecta as the Titans couldn't cover the 3 points in a 20-16 loss on the road. I recap that Thursday game and get into what turned out to be a lot of upset picks after a 14-2 mark last week. Here's hoping.

Christen isn't feeling well, so I was flying solo on this one but she also tends to do better in our picks league when she doesn't join me for the show. So, I recapped the completely lackluster and underwhelming Thursday Night Football game between the Chiefs and Broncos and went through all the rest of the games on the Week 6 slate. Also got Rids' picks in this time. Enjoy. Thanks to everyone who took the time to listen to the episode. I still believe that word of mouth is the best way to help,...

Mourning the lack of my Bills while talking about the upcoming NFL Conference Championship games. The combined spread for both games was only 4pts total last I checked, so we should be in for some close battles.

It was a very emotional day in Orchard Park, but the Bills handled it all with grace. Not only did they get a season sweep of a division rival with a 35-23 win, but they also eliminated the Patriots from playoff contention and secured the #2 seed in the process.
