After a week away, there are lots of television shows and movies to cover, and we somehow manage to squeeze in more than a few. We first talk about Obama's birthday party (0:58) before discussing COVID-19 once again (2:55). Then it's more into pop culture with two of Apple TV+ shows: Mr. Corman (10:50) and Ted Lasso (19:24).
After the break, Adam and Blaine give some introductory thoughts on the first episode of the new season of The Challenge: Spies, Lies & Allies (30:19). Blaine happened to catch the buzziest movie of the week, CODA (35:22). Then Natalie joins the gang to talk about the recent Disney+ show Marvel's What If...? (36:50) and the HBO Max movie from the DC Universe The Suicide Squad (44:45).
