Deliver The Profile Episode 344: Mockingbird Man
Deliver The Profile
It's "The Big Game", because for legal reasons CBS cannot call it the Super Bowl. We can though, so fuck it. After the Super Bowl, a couple is murdered for having too many possessions. The culprit is someone named Raphael, meaning either an archangel or a ninja turtle is committing heinous crimes. This episode also shows what the BAU does in a party setting, and it's vaguely pathetic. (Reid does Star Trek trivia!) James Van Der Beek stars, Don Swayze co-stars, and Mandy Patinkin looks at drawings of birds during the Super Bowl. What more could you ask for in the HIGHEST RATED CRIMINAL MINDS IN...

Deliver The Profile Episode 343: Ben Franklin
Deliver The Profile
In this episode of Criminal Minds, the BAU goes rat hunting in "Internal Affairs", even though it's a different branch of government and all the conflict about policing your own is lost. Didn't we see The Departed, anyone? This is all part of the Season 11 Dirty Dozen we are obligated to cover it eventually, but we're so darned annoyed by this storyline that we'll only give 100% instead of 110% like usual.

Deliver The Profile Episode 342: Full Sh*t Boogie
Deliver The Profile
Criminal Minds, in "Full Tilt Boogie" from Season 13, addresses the opioid epidemic plaguing America's (white) communities the same way it addresses every societal issue in its purview: poorly. Learn what an Mhm is in the latest episode of Deliver The Profile, your stalwart defense against the forces of bad procedural television.

Deliver The Profile Episode 341: The Ripper of Regis
Deliver The Profile
Here it is: the LAST episode EVER of Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders. Don't worry, we've still got like five episodes left to do, but this is chronologically the last one. It has everything: an evil clown, William Forsythe, Russia, ballerinas, an agent shot in the line of duty, and, of course, an "Everything's Okay" dinner. This was a television show that aired during prime time, and we are all lesser for it.

Deliver The Profile Episode 340: Ten Year Anniversary Show
Deliver The Profile
Deliver The Profile celebrates its 10th year on the air with "Dorado Falls", a paranoid thriller about an ex-soldier who thinks his family has been replaced by impostors. Also, Morgan makes Prentiss do extra training because he's a dick. Thanks for listening, if you're a longtime fan or if this is your first time.

Deliver The Profile Episode 339: Take Your Daughter To Work Day
Deliver The Profile
An episode so not rife with incident Ronnie and Jazz couldn't even squeeze an hour of podcasting out of it. Just because it's the shortest podcast in years does not mean it's without its merits as DTP covers "Target Rich", an episode in which Rossi's long lost daughter comes asking for a favor. Thankfully, the favor is "find a serial killer" and not "be an active father", so Rossi is up to the job. Also, JJ returns from maternity leave, meaning now sometimes a blonde actress spouts exposition in scenes.

Deliver The Profile Episode 338: Die Simmons
Deliver The Profile
What if you did Die Hard, decades after we were assaulted with a slate of Die Hard ripoffs, on a network television budget, starring the guy from The Wheel of Time? You get "Ex Parte", a hostage situation made all the more perilous by one of the captives being Simmons' wife. Come for the derivative plotting and stay for the confusing politics. Also, will Simmons get a new cell phone? He will if his freakin' wife has anything to say about it!

Deliver The Profile Episode 337: The Book of The Day of The Dead
Deliver The Profile
A witch hunter in Utah tries to kill witches and other sinners in "In The Blood", which is also the opportunity for Garcia to throw a Day of the Dead party. We meet creeps, volunteers at the library, secret drug addicts and finally learn which dead comrades the BAU considers worth celebrating. If you guessed Nikola Tesla and not Blake's dead son, you'd be right.

Deliver The Profile Episode 336: Hunters of Men (guest: Dr. Daniel Daughhetee)
Deliver The Profile
A vacation from ourselves as Daniel slots in for Jazz in this episode of Deliver The Profile. "Open Season" is about men hunting other men, including girls. It's an early episode of the second season vintage, so that means Mandy Patinkin is there full assing what Joe Mantegna would later quarter ass. Ronnie and Daniel give the show the lampooning it deserves.

Deliver The Profile
Ronnie and Jazz discuss the Josh Stewart (Criminal Minds' own Foghorn Leghorn) starring serial killer thriller The Collector.
