Two heads are better than one. Which is a simple axiom that doesn’t always apply to everything. Take engines, for example.

Spooky season is upon us. Or at least it was at the time of recording. We may or may not have picked manga that corresponds with the time of year of pumpkins and costumes.

Nothing says summer and the beach quite like shark movies. They almost have to go together because otherwise sharks aren’t very dangerous.

Unlike a certain movie character, you aren’t required to say our show name thrice to summon us. For that we will appear after only two.
