We have a lot to catch up on, but we do it efficiently enough for you all! This week on Taking It Down, we start with some college football bowl season comedy (1:28) before Natalie joins us to help sift through what about the finale of the Disney+ show Hawkeye left us feeling cold (4:02).
From there, it’s a discussion of the second season of the HBO show How to with John Wilson that somehow digresses into some reflection on the Bang energy drink (14:17). Everyone has thoughts about Adam McKay’s new Netflix movie Don’t Look Up: is it too simple to be good (24:24)? Before the break, our own Adam Morrow tells us spoiler-free reviews of both The French Dispatch as well as the new Matrix film (38:12).
After the break, the Taking It Down crew talk disappointedly about The Book of Boba Fett from Disney+ (44:09) and curiously about the first two episodes of the HBO Max show Station Eleven (51:43). It’s all here! Use the time stamps to navigate your way or listen from start to finish on this oversized episode!
