They definitely have similar registers, took me a while to differentiate between them as well. Here's a handy guide for new listeners:

RODGERS - misanthrope, contrarian
STANGER - "Do you guys know [universally beloved thing]? Do you...do you guys like that"

Stanger - pronounces the propeller-driven flying machine as "hillacopter".

Fifth Element is one of three perfect “scan the hotel room tv for something to watch movies” alongside Fast Five and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

One of the best parts about Action Boyz is their open disdain for the freak listeners. More podcasts need to do this. Because its created a largely self policing in the comments on Patreon. Blank Check fans on the other hand...

Fifth Element has solid casting with the leads, some solid art direction, some good sequences, but it doesn’t feel fully baked. I have no nostalgia for it, and when I finally saw it in my early 20s it was underwhelming. I largely agreed with ABZ’s criticisms.

Now, them lambasting Ernest Scared Stupid is unforgivable.

You guys just gotta come to terms with the pod being mostly Rodgers' opinion on films and the other two falling into line because it is completely not worth arguing with the renown crazy person that is Ben Rodgers on something like an opinion on a film.

But he has pretty good taste 95% of the time so, eh. It's worth it. Also Fifth Element is mid tier at best. Better than something like loving Stargate though, that's for loving sure.

Also 100% agree on how good of a job they do on dunking on their own fans. It must come from years of doing in-person improv, but like every other podcast host out there should take notes on how they expertly shut down the loving crazy parasocial aspect of listening to hundreds or even thousands of hours of a single podcast.

the most important thing for any podcaster to remember is fans almost universally love being insulted, they can't get enough of it, pigs at the trough demanding please more of the slop that sends an electrical current through our jaws

Yeah, but it's still healthy for anyone with a fan base to make sure to insult them every now and then, if only to make sure that the kind of fan that start thinking they would be besties with their idol if only they knew they're their biggest fan keep away. That alone probably lowers your chanses of getting Mark David Chapmanned by a crazy fan by a few hundred percent.

Barbarella on Scott Hasn't Seen (Mitra Jouhari is the guest so that's great)

Somehow they didn't talk about the Excessive Machine, but still a good ep.
