What's this?! A regular release episode instead of a bonus episode?
Well as you might have seen, the 2023 Explosion of Bonus Episodes has finally arrived at it's end, and while we work on getting another huge backlog of new Bonus Episodes edited, we figure we can use the open space on the feed to release a discussion on a new release film that deserves the Podcast Spotlight. So join us as we discuss our second Gareth Edwards film for the year, as Caleb and Isaac discuss The Creator. And tune in for a special surprise in the stinger section.

Caleb and Eric return to the Kubrick series after a long delay to finally turn the podcast spotlight on the four films he made during the 1960s. And we begin this journey with Spartacus, a film that Kubrick himself was never happy with due to the censorship of the age. How will your hosts think it stacks up, despite the trials of its production?
Just as a note, due to many complications in the scheduling of the podcast, this episode has been sitting in the TNE Archives since June 4th, 2022. But now that it's had it's time in the sun, tune in every second Monday until we compete his 60s run.

Caleb and Isaac return to the bar for the third entry in their unofficial Speakeasy Mega-Special! An auspicious series, considering it wasn't mentioned on here. But eagle eyed listeners might have noticed that Bonus #92, #93, and this entry here were all recorded one in giant recording. And to bring the special to an end, we return for your hosts favorite type of episode, a Mea Culpa episode! They begin mentioning some of their mistakes in their podcasting history, but to keep things from being all doom and gloom, they also discuss some recent films they've watched. Such as Tetris, The original Rollerball, and several more. All in all, it's just another fun day with your pals behind the mics.
