The Give Me Five Podcast: An Uncultured Look at Pop Culture and Nostalgia
Remember long nights discussing the entertainment that you love with your friends? We loved talking about movies, music, tv, comics, video games and books in the past but life got in the way. The podcast was founded after three friends started working together on a post-apocalyptic Halloween stage show and realized that they all had strong, interesting takes on the things they loved and missed discussing them. While none of the hosts are experts they all have past experience in media, having worked for radio stations, in the 3D graphics world, and at various entertainment retail stores. We hope to bring a new set of eyes to the things you love and maybe introduce you to your next favorite thing.

Unspoilery Flash Sneak Preview Review - Spider-Man Across the Spiderverse - Ted Lasso - Fubar - Unicorn: Warriors Eternal
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. Warner Bros has been running sneak previews of the movie throughout the past month and we have a chance to talk about it. Is it a good closing film for the current non-James Gunn DC universe? 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 spider-people. How do they fit so many characters into one film? Surprise! It's a pt 1 of 2. Rob checked out Genndy Tartakovsky's (Samurai Jack) new animated series Unicorn : Warriors Eternal. And Ted Lasso comes to an end with season 3. How did they wrap up all the ongoing storylines and was it successful?

Nun Puns - 278 - Metallica - Mrs Davis - Mandalorian - Studio 666 - Chupa
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. Chupa sold itself as a kid friendly ET-esque film about a baby chupacabra, does the actual film follow through. The Mandalorian season 3 is over and we discuss the major events and review the season as a whole. Finally Omar checks out Mrs Davis, an eclectic AI based show invovling nuns, the holy grail and the always delightful Margo Martindale. The question of the week is about music.

Beef Jerky Sandwiches - Jung_E- Legend of Vox Machina - Three Pines - Hunters 2
After a short delay, Hunters season 2 arrived. A show that oscilates between serious alternate history, and sci fi absurdity yet is wildly entertaining and definitely makes you think "what if". In this story, Hitler has survived into the 1970's and it shows what would happen if he stood for trial instead of his bunker suicide. The Legend of Vox Machina brings its irreverent humor back to Amazon Prime. This season focuses more on action and less on humor. Is it as entertaining as season 1.

Gerbils R Us - The Last of Us - Jack Ryan - Night Court

Gerbils R Us - The Last of Us - Jack Ryan - Night Court
In an early episode we spoke at length about bad video game movie adaptations. (Mario Bros anyone?) but The Last of us has hit HBO plus with a huge amount of critical fanfare and excellent buzz. Jack Ryan season 3 also was released a few weeks ago and we continue to marvel at John Krasinski's take on the Clancy character. This season takes on the far fetched idea of Russia trying to retake former territories. (sarcasm) And Night Court is back! How does the notoriously zany show line up with current tastes.

Game of Throats - 269 - The Menu - Black Bird - Glass Onion - Kaleidoscope - Pale Blue Eye
Due to our Top 5's of 2022 Episode last week, we are catching up this week with an all-review episode! No frills. No top 5. No extended Rob rants about things he hates. (ok maybe a few of those) This week we cover The Pale Blue Eye a fictional mystery movie starring Christian Bale as a detective solving crimes with Edgar Allen Poe. We stay in the realm of mystery with The Glass Onion by Rian Johnson available on Netflix, where we get to see what Benoit Blanc has been up to since the wonderful surprise hit Knives Out. Black Bird is another streaming show (Apple TV) that snuck under the radar, but after some Golden Globe wins, we finally get a chance to see one of Ray Liotta's fiunal roles. We also check out The Menu for some foodie satire, and Kaleidoscope, the watch in any order you'd like show on Netflix. Is it a gimmick or is it another interesting way of playing with genre television. The Give Me Five Podcast is on Patreon.

A Give Me Five Kinda Christmas - Christmas Dragon - Avatar Way of the Water - National Treasure Edge of History - Weird: The Al Yankovic Story
Christmas is here and so is a terrible Christmas movie involving gremlins, orcs and orphans! It's the Christmas Dragon! Also on a muich better front (CG-wise) Avatar the Way of the Water is out and Rob had the opportunity to see it. Critics say it brings back the big-movie feel to going to the theater, but what was Rob's opinion. Omar checked out the historically in-accurate National Treaure show on Disney Plus, and Greg checked out the equally historically inaccurate Weird Al Bio-pic .

Nun Porn Puns - Tulsa King - Christmas Carol - Willow - HBO Max - 266
Sylvester Stallone is having a mini renaissance in 2022 first with Samaritan and now with the Breaking Bad meets Sopranos fish out of water show Tulsa King. Omar reviews the uber-dark Christmas Carol show from 2019 and Rob takes a look at Disney+'s Willow series. Does it have the same feel as the original. We also discuss the latest streaming news after HBO Max cancels and removes Westworld from streaming. How does removing shows from a streaming platform help the bottom line? Mike Flanagan leaves Netflix for Amazon Prime. What does this mean for the Flaniverse and the great moody shows like Haunting of Bly Manor, Haunting of Hill House, and Midnight Club.

Swiftpocalypse Now! - Swifties vs Ticketmaster - Black Panther Wakanda Forever - The Bastard Son of the Devil Himself - Mythic Quest
As we all know, Chadwick Boseman, the Black Panther, passed away before filming Black Panther 2. Huge changes had to be made, and a tightrope had to be crossed between respecting the real-life loss and crafting an engaging story. Now, with the release of Wakanda Forever, we ask how successful the movie was relating to the memory of T'Challa and the overall story of the Marvel universe. RIP Mr. Boseman. In other reviews, Mythic Quest is back for season 3 and The Bastard Son of the Devil himself has seen some decent reviews on entertainment blogs, but will it pass the Rob test? We also mourn the passing of Kevin Conroy (Batman) and Gallagher (of watermelon fame) The top 5 this week is all about memorializing the dead. We ask, what are the top 5 "in memorium" moments in film, music, games and TV? This is particularly related to people involved in in the media itself (ie. band members, actors, etc) All this, and our regular shenanigans! The Give Me Five Podcast is on Patreon.

Unkind Rewind - 262 - Blockbuster - Enola Holmes 2 - Tales Of the Jedi - Businesses that are gone
Blockbuster, one of the few massive corporations that dissolved has had a lot of nostalgia associated with it. When Netflix anounced a show based on the now (almost) dead franchise it was a surprise as Netflix was partially responsible for the death of Blockbuster. Will Netflix ressurect the franchise through this show or kill it yet again? Tales of the Jedi is a series of animated shorts that tell the story of Count Dooku and Ashoka. We review it and let you know if the 6 episode series hits the mark. And finally, Netflix's Enola Holmes was a huge hit and the sequal has arrived on the streaming service. Is it as fun as the original? In honor of Blockbuster, we are going to look back to the past and discuss the businesses and restaurants that we miss. All this, and our regular shenanigans!

Polishing Our Daggers - 260 - Halloween Ends - Andor - Midnight Club - Curse of Bridge Hollow - Black Adam
October is moving fast and this is the final episode before Halloween. There have been a huge amount of releases and as a result, we have doubled our reviews this week. Rob saw Black Adam and reviews this latest entry in the DC Universe. The Midnight Club is a different entry in the Mike Flannigan "Flaniverse" but combines 1990s nostalgia, with drama and his signature brand of horror. The third Halloween sequel / remake(?) / whatever is out and is very polarizing. Are the online denizens just complaining for no reason or do they have a point? (they have a point) Also the most Florida of Men returns, there are a trio of R.I.P.'s this week (sadly), Rob wonders why the dad (Marlon Wayans) in The Curse of Bridge Hollow and Andor takes us to the fringes of the Star Wars universe, The top 5 this week is a solo effort, Greg gives us a list of streaming shows and movies you can watch for Halloween!

Rpb went to D23 and due to poor planning on Disney's part, there is less to talk about in the realm of upcoming releases and theme park attractions and more to talk about with letting fans down.
