The Give Me Five Podcast: An Uncultured Look at Pop Culture and Nostalgia
We review an early cut of the DC movie The Flash without any spoilers. The movie has been in development for 4 years and between Covid and some high profile issues with it's lead the film has had its share of controversy.

Is it a Flash movie or a Keaton Batman movie? How is Ezra Miller in the lead role? Speaking of superheroes, we also review Spider-man Across the Spiderverse, and its many many...

The Give Me Five Podcast: An Uncultured Look at Pop Culture and Nostalgia
It wasn't supposed to be a music episode but its about as close to one as we've had in awhile. We talk about the new Metallica album 72 seasons. Metallica had a huge marketing campaign and push for this new album. Is it just capitalism or is the album a return to their ferocious metal past? The Foo Fighter's Studio 666 is a horror movie about the band holing up in a haunted mansion to record their 10th album. Demon possesion ensues and members of the band are dispatched in horrific ways. It came out over a year ago, but with the death of Taylor Hawkins Greg hesitated to review it. ...
