    Episode 500 – Nostalgia Bait
    Dec 10 2025
    10 Years and 500 Peaks and Valleys of Pop Culture This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl celebrate the Infamous Podcast’s most Infamous Milestone yet… 500 Episodes. Here, they will discuss how the pop culture landscape has changed since July 2015. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Nostalgia: 5:00 The Rise and Fall of Pop Culture Five hundred episodes in, Brian and Darryl have seen some things. Chief among them: the slow realization that Hollywood learned absolutely the wrong lessons from its biggest successes. Take Marvel. Once upon a time, this was the gold standard. The MCU built toward Avengers: Endgame like it mattered, because it did. When nostalgia showed up, it was earned. Even the contentious stuff, like Captain Marvel or the very “look around, ladies” A-Force moment, happened inside a franchise people still trusted. Then the Disney+ floodgates opened. Too many shows, too little focus, and suddenly big ideas like Doomsday didn’t feel epic. They felt panicked. The machine kept pumping content, but the soul quietly clocked out. Spider-Man: No Way Home briefly reminded everyone how this is supposed to work. Nostalgia wasn’t the point. Story was. Seeing multiple Spider-Men together actually meant something, and for a minute, Marvel felt dangerous again. Then everyone immediately tried to copy the trick without understanding why it worked. Star Wars didn’t even get that far. Somehow, with the original cast alive and willing, the sequel trilogy never once put Luke, Leia, and Han on screen together. Not once. It’s arguably the biggest fumble in modern blockbuster history. Nostalgia wasn’t used to unite fans. It was used like window dressing, leaving audiences staring at the screen thinking, “How did you miss that?” Indiana Jones followed the same road into the ditch. Instead of honoring what Indy stood for, the franchise tried to modernize the wrong things, misunderstand its own appeal, and slowly sand down the character until nothing recognizable was left. The so-called “Phoebe Waller effect” isn’t about one person. It’s about Hollywood confusing quippy cynicism and tonal shifts with actual evolution and then acting shocked when audiences check out. And that’s the real takeaway here. Nostalgia can’t save a floundering global box office. Audiences aren’t idiots. They know when they’re being sold a memory instead of a story. Recognition has replaced risk, and comfort IP has replaced creativity. The result is a lot of familiar logos and a shocking lack of excitement. And then there’s Dexter, quietly walking into the room and embarrassing half of Hollywood. Instead of screaming “remember this?” every five minutes, Dexter did something radical. It changed the setting, brought in new characters, raised the stakes, and kept the core of the character intact. Same morally broken serial killer, new problems. No endless callbacks. No cosplay storytelling. Just character, consequence, and actual intent. Which is wild, because Dexter figured out the thing billion-dollar franchises still can’t. If the only thing your revival has is memories, you don’t have a revival. You have a reunion tour. Dexter wasn’t trying to recreate Miami or trick audiences into nostalgia dopamine. It trusted that people missed the character, not the wallpaper. So while Marvel is throwing multiverses at the wall, Star Wars forgot to put its Trinity in the same room, Indiana Jones got power-washed into irrelevance, and DC is still arguing with itself, Dexter just showed up, changed the scenery, and reminded everyone how this is actually done. Same Dexter. New playground. No panic. No apology tour. Five hundred episodes later, Brian and Darryl aren’t mad that pop culture changed. They’re annoyed that it changed this lazily. Because if there’s one thing a decade of podcasting proves, it’s this: people don’t stop loving franchises. Franchises stop loving their audiences. And yeah… we’re still talking about it.

    Episode 499 – The Rose War of the Families
    Dec 4 2025
    Families at War are Peak Comedy This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl are reviewing two very different family movies… one where the whole family works to fight the “King of the North”. The other was an all-out brawl with Mom and Dad for all the flowers. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 The Family Plan 2: 6:15 The Roses: 15:29 The Family Plan 2 (Apple TV) Rating Out of 10 Short Haired Jon Snow Looks Really Weird Darryl: 4.5/10 Brian: 5.1/10 Summary The Family Plan 2 picks up three years after the first film. Dan Morgan has left car sales behind and now runs a private security firm, trying to balance normal dad life with a past as elite assassin Sean McCaffrey that will not stay buried. When the family travels to London to visit daughter Nina, Dan’s “routine” security assessment at a bank goes sideways. He discovers the client, Finn Clarke, is actually his half-brother, tied to his father’s criminal network, and is using Dan to pull off a high-tech heist. The Morgans get caught between assassins, Interpol-level stakes, and messy family drama that stretches from London to Paris while they try to stay alive and stay a family. Main Cast – The Family Plan 2 Mark Wahlberg – Dan Morgan / Sean McCaffrey, ex-assassin dad now running a security firm Michelle Monaghan – Jessica Morgan, his wife and former decathlete turned coach Zoe Colletti – Nina Morgan, their oldest child, studying abroad in London Van Crosby – Kyle Morgan, gamer son with niche fame as “Kylleboi” Peter and Theodore Lindsey – Max Morgan, youngest son Kit Harington – Finn Clarke, Dan’s half-brother and main antagonist Sidse Babett Knudsen – Svetlana Romanova, Dan’s former Russian intelligence contact Sanjeev Bhaskar – Vikram, a former butler who sides with Dan Reda Elazouar – Omar, Nina’s boyfriend, with a very useful dad Daniel de Bourg – Jules The Roses (2025) Rating Out of 10 What Happens When Mom and Dad Go Mental Darryl: 6.69/10 Brian: 6.3/10 Summary A reimagining of The War of the Roses, The Roses is a satirical black comedy about Ivy and Theo Rose, a seemingly perfect married couple with great careers, kids, and a dream life that slowly curdles into open warfare. As Ivy’s restaurant empire takes off and Theo’s architecture career collapses, resentment builds. What starts as quiet competition turns into a full-blown psychological and physical battle inside their custom dream house, with friends, lawyers, therapists, and staff getting pulled into the escalating chaos. Main Cast Benedict Cumberbatch – Theo Rose, architect and husband Olivia Colman – Ivy Rose, rising restaurateur and wife Hala Finley – Hattie Rose (with Delaney Quinn as young Hattie) Wells Rappaport – Roy Rose (with Ollie Robinson as young Roy) Andy Samberg – Barry, friend and later Theo’s divorce lawyer Kate McKinnon – Amy, Barry’s wife and friend of the Roses Ncuti Gatwa – Jeffrey, front of house manager at Ivy’s restaurant Sunita Mani – Jane, Ivy’s sous chef Zoë Chao – Sally, friend, married to Rory Jamie Demetriou – Rory, friend, married to Sally Allison Janney – Eleanor, Ivy’s divorce lawyer Belinda Bromilow – Janice, their marriage counselor Contact Us The Infamous Podcast can be found wherever podcasts are found on the Interwebs, feel free to subscribe and follow along on social media.

  • Episode 498 – SISU: Road to Revenge Car Review

    Episode 498 – SISU: Road to Revenge Car Review
    Nov 29 2025
    It’s a Movie Review, but in a Car This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl get together to revive the Instant Reaction Review for SISU: Road to Revenge. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 SISU 2: 2:00 SISU Road to Revenge (2025) Ratings Out of 10 How Could There Possibly be Any Blood Left in His Body Because it All Pumped Out onto the Floor of the Train Darryl: 6.5/10 Brian: 6.3/10 Summary SISU: Road to Revenge brings back Finland’s most unstoppable ex-commando, Aatami Korpi, diving straight into another brutal gauntlet of vengeance, grit, and sheer unbreakable willpower. After finding a fragile peace in the aftermath of his gold-fueled rampage, Korpi is dragged back into violence when a new band of opportunistic mercenaries threatens the one thing he has left worth protecting. What follows is an explosive trail of carnage across the frozen frontier: mines, traps, improvised weapons, and an old soldier’s creativity pushed to mythic extremes. The film doubles down on everything that made the original a cult favorite — gnarly kills, dark humor, insane resilience, and the legend of a man too stubborn to die. SISU: Road to Revenge is a stripped-down, savage revenge ride that proves once again that SISU-ness isn’t just toughness… it’s a whole survival philosophy. Perfect for fans of the first film, pulpy action, and anybody who loves watching one man absolutely ruin an army’s week. Cast Jorma Tommila — Aatami Korpi  Stephen Lang — Igor Draganov (the Soviet officer hunting Korpi)  Richard Brake — KGB Officer / Soviet antagonist  Supporting / Minor Cast Einar Haraldsson — Soldier (Soviet soldier)  Jaakko Hutchings — Soviet Soldier  Ergo Küppas — Soviet Border Guard  Anton Klink — Soviet Border Guard  Creative Team & Crew Writer / Director: Jalmari Helander  Producers: Petri Jokiranta, Mike Goodridge  Executive Producers: Gregory Ouanhon, Antonio Salas  Cinematographer (Director of Photography): Mika Orasmaa  Editor: Juho Virolainen  Music / Score (Composers): Juri Seppä, Tuomas Wäinölä  Production Budget: $12 million Box Office*: $6.6 million worldwide Break-even*: According to one “break-even” analysis, the film needed about US $30.5 million worldwide gross to turn a profit (assuming production + marketing + distribution costs roughly 2.5× production budget). *as of recording Contact Us The Infamous Podcast can be found wherever podcasts are found on the Interwebs, feel free to subscribe and follow along on social media.
