Matt Mira uses the few brain cells he has to misunderstand the plot, of No Time To Die in today's episode of James Bonding. It's little wonder Matt Guyers didn't make time to do any pandemic podcasts with Mira.

The narrative may not be 100% but the standard Big Grande "Let's chase a dumb idea as far as we can" mentality is fully locked in.

I don't know how I didn't see Shonk penning his own "Grey Man as a breakup metaphor" song coming, but I didn't, and the reactions were perfect. Why don't you command the same respect as your father?

I'm ashamed that I read that spoiler without listening to the latest episode, but I'm putting it on immediately. Every MonsterClasp has had it's through-line joke, and I didn't expect Petey the Sugar Glider to be better than Shonk's sickness making his hands grow from S2, but drat it the guests, especially Tawny Newsome, just put their own spin on it and elevate it. The Songs Aren't Metaphors bit from the Tawny Newsome episode is probably my favorite bit of the season.

Man....I really didn't think Minsterclass could get better than the previous two seasons.....and I am continuously proven wrong. And....as I've said before....check out the show 'Ten Year Old Tom' on HBO Max. A brilliant animated show that is almost exactly like the previously brilliant 'The Life and Times of Tim'. Bang Rodgeman plays the bus driver who just steals the show whenever he's in one of the episodes.

Yeah, I bailed on Masterclass S1 because it was just vibing as Hollywood Handbook with not enough Hayesman, but I went back and revisited a couple of months ago because of how much people were praising it and it was definitely worth pushing through (although I did think S1 was better than I remembered on second listen)

Masterclass actually left me cold on my original listen, but on a second pass it landed hard for me. I just gave the first two seasons another spin over the last week or so and would definitely agree that the second season is stronger than the first overall. (Basically any time you give Shonk an excuse to write/revise a script that other people perform it leads to good stuff; Bang and Mary Holland performing his "I'm dying, Mommy" scene is the highlight of S1.)

HM season 1 has Mary Holland as an acting coach, and her breathing exercises alone is enough to make me laugh. HM season 2 hits an even greater stride. Probably because it has a little somethin' for the boys

I actually started with the free first episode of the third season and enjoyed it enough that I stopped and went back through the first two seasons and it was a fun way to see kinda where those characters were going to end up and seeing it progress over the two seasons

It really is the most surprising part of masterclass. Superficially, it's the same premise as Handbook and some of the tone can make you feel you're listening to an old-school episode. But there's something subtly special about the heightened reality of masterclass. On Hollywood Handbook, nobody/everybody is the idiot. On Masterclass, it's just sad how much Bang just can't seem to get it.

I had a similar experience with HM, I started listening to season 1 around the time it came out and I was just getting into HH at the time. Felt too similar so I dropped it for a while, but eventually went back and re-listened and loved it. I think it was Bang as Sebastian the Crab saying "I'm scared of the slenderman" that really won me over, just one of those things that will pop into my head randomly and still make me laugh. That and "You ain't Judd"

They've named a few of the other upcoming movies but the only one that springs to mind is Top Gun, which I'm very excited to hear. I also only saw that for the first time a few years ago and my immediate reaction was "That sucked" and within like a week I had completely turned around on it. I binged all of the TMNT series after subscribing to CBB World and it was really fun to hear Scott suffer through these movies and to hear "Sprague" realizing more or less in realtime that maybe the franchise kinda sucks and he only truly ever enjoyed the first movie as a child. Shocked by the revelation at the end that they bought thought Batman vs. TMNT was genuinely pretty good.

A real highlight of the TMNT series was Michael Ian Black's episode where he tells the story of how he got roped into dropping out of college to travel the country visiting Pizza Huts in a decaying turtle costume to promote the bizarre musical touring show.

I guess it’s a character he’s done on CBB but it was weird where he’s basically just being himself with a funny voice. anyway I really liked the ep and it made me realize how much better professional writers are at finding things to laugh about in a bad movie than the chapo guys

I'm definitely in the baffled by Shaun Diston doing a character for this podcast category. However it originated, by the time you're doing the spinoff of the spinoff, I think people will probably forgive you if you drop the bit, especially when Scott's actually the star in the first place. There's no way he's still doing the character a year from now, right?

He stays in character because it started with that character hiring Scott to write a TMNT movie on CBB. But he also barely stays in character, lol.
