  • Episode 79: I Come in Peace AKA Dark Angel (1990)
    Jan 5 2026

    This week we've got drug dealers, aliens, sophisticated detectives, uptight FBI agents, and enough explosions to turn Michael Bay into Tex Avery's Howling Wolf. Oh, and we forgot to mention, it's also Christmastime. That's right, we're talking Craig R. Baxley's action/sci-fi thrillride, I Come in Peace AKA Dark Angel with Deke from Sidetrakd16. Will this out-of-this-world tale create an endorphin burst large enough to trigger an intergalactic takeover of the planet or will the fellas be left stranded looking for another fix? Tune in to find out!

    Dec 29 2025

    We're back and this week we are covering Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another, a film that has a little something for everyone.

So, remember to breathe, and tune in to find out if PTA televised the revolution or if Gil Scott-Heron was right all along!
