Ryan Silberstein (@Silberwhatever) joins me to discuss a movie we have both been highly anticipating for a long time: Lana Wachowski's The Matrix Resurrections. I am very happy to say that we both love the movie and all of the weird tricks it has up its sleeve. It is first and foremost an epic romance movie, and it is very passionate and earnest. We are so happy that it exists. Episode 200 is finally coming in January, and the podcast may continue to exist into 2022. We'll see you next year. Spoilers for Resurrections and one large spoiler for Spider-Man: No Way Home

This album is a big growth of the band's sound and we mostly love it more than ever now that it is fifteen years old. We also talk about Rockstar Energy drinks, Thrice, Manchester Orchestra, Murder By Death, Circa Survive, and The Sopranos, Andy's trip...
