The Novice Elitists once again jump into the realm of book coverage, as Caleb heads to the bar to discuss Alexander Key's 1968 novel Escape to Witch Mountain, as well as take a look at how it's 1975 film counterpart did at adapting the story. TNE cohort Isaac is once again absent, but have no fear listeners, as we have yet another new guest joining the roster! Brianna has long been mentioned on the podcast, and she finally joins the show to discuss one of her favorite films. (Although eagle-eared listeners might recall her voice from a certain stinger where she joined in on a discussion about the Hunchback of Notre Dame--although don't ask what episode that was on, cause I've got no clue)
Either way folks, grab a drink or two, sit back and relax, and listen in as your hosts discuss these two works of classic children's entertainment.

Caleb once again returns to the bar with the boys from The Best Picture Podcast, as the three of them dive deep into John Boorman's acid-laced sequel to The Exorcist. The Heretic has long been hailed as one of the worst sequels in cinema history, but our hosts aren't necessarily in agreement with that accessment. Who are the Heretics in this debate? Tune in now to find out!

The Boys from the NE return yet again to their DC retrospective, this time covering the penultimate episode in their pre-Flashpoint Paradox, Justice League Retrospective. Due to some time contraints, we ended up doing this two parter review in reverse. So this week we'll get the commentary on Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths and several weeks later, the review of Earth 2 will grace your podcast feeds. We're a little low energy on this one, but don't worry folks! We're still very excited to be here, finishing up a retrospective that has run on a bit longer than we were intending--but stay tuned for the coming Superman retrospective!
And make sure to keep that dial turned to The Novice Elitists for the stinger at the end, where we detail some of our plans for the Superman series.

Returning to the bar, Isaac is once again absent. Caleb's been sheltering him from the law, and hiding him in the bar basement. But to keep up the illusion, he's unfortunately gonna be absent for several episodes after this. (Minus next week, when we'll publish an episode from before his legal troubles began)
But luckily this week Eric has returned, and he's brought the second half of The Best Picture Podcast, Sean, to discuss another film from 1973. This time looking at one of the pillars of 70s horror, The Exorcist.
