    Del Toro also has a lot more movies I've actually seen, which is always a plus for a Blank Check series

    I've definitely found that how much I enjoy blank check is WAY more dependant on the subject than I would have expected

    I couldn't make it through the Nancy Myers miniseries and I don't think I'd be able to with a Miller one either

    So, I have an 11 hour drive (and return) coming up in two weeks to pick up my future dog. My father is making the trek with me, and I need some podcast recommendations because I feel like my usual rotation of video game news, cynical histories of ancient dictators, and Canadian politics/global event shows won't appeal to him

    My Dad likes dogs, learning stuff, bad sci-fi, and falling asleep to WWII documentaries like any other white baby boomer man

    Does anyone have some podcasts they'd recommend, or conversely, any podcasts I should force my father to endure while he can't figure out how my media console works, and see how long it takes for him to threaten to turn my car around?

    Can I Pet Your Dog is pretty fun

    I bet he'd dig 99% invisible

    in theory i really appreciate that they did nancy myers because it's a good thing to branch out and cover lots of different types of directors

    in practice i was very bored with that series by about the halfway point

    I seems like Nancy Myers is a good subject to talk about as a successful female director, but very few of her movies feel like blank checks? Am I missing something?

    It’s Complicated, a screwball comedy about a love triangle between Meryl Streep, Alec Baldwin, and Steve Martin cost the same amount as Fast & Furious 1 & 3, Ocean’s 11, and Shazam

    I was absolutely expecting it to swerve into some sort of joke at the end. And I wouldn't say you're broken, rickrolling has been a constant of the internet ever since internet video became a thing anyone could easily do

    Robert Evans, a former cracked editor and the man behind behind the bastards, has released the first episode of his new podcast it could happen here. It looks at the very real possibility of a second American Civil War in the next couple years. It’s a scary topic but I think it’s worth having a look. If you think the idea might be impossible I’d like to point out that in 2016 when he was still writing for cracked he reached out to A number of Civil War historians and current military and sociological experts about the idea. He expected not to get a response from any of them but he got a response from all of them because each one believed in the possibility that in the coming yearsit could happen. This is a topic that serious people in positions of power are taking very seriously.

    I only know the names from hearing them here, but there's a few episodes of Behind the Bastards and Hardcore History about Nazis, I think. And the Dollop, after doing a search.

    Hey I listened to the first episode of this last night!

    It was good and incredibly grim!

    Also, Robert Evans kind of sounds like Marc Evan Jackson.
