Brown, discuss what Mike Vrabel’s influence is already doing for the franchise, and debate whether New England is finally heading in the right direction.

The Rehashables: The Mandalorian & Grogu

In this episode of The Rehashables, we head to the theater for a deep dive into The Mandalorian and Grogu, the first Star Wars movie to hit the big screen in years. We discuss our very different reactions to the film, debate whether Grogu is still the secret sauce of the franchise, and break down everything from the movie's biggest action sequences to its most questionable creative decisions. Along the way, we revisit our history with Star Wars, from midnight premieres to the peak of The Mandalorian TV series. We hand out awards for Best Scene, MVP, Scene-Stealer, Biggest Plot Hole, and more while tackling larger questions about the future of Star Wars. Does this movie actually move the story forward? Is Grogu carrying the franchise or holding it back? And will anyone still be talking about this film ten years from now? Join us as we debate the highs, lows, and head-scratching moments from the latest adventure in a galaxy far, far away.

The Rehashables: The Boys Series Finale

On this episode of The Rehashables, Randy and Matt break down the final season and series finale of The Boys after five insane seasons of superheroes, satire, gore, and chaos. They dive into Homelander’s ending, Butcher’s final arc, Ryan’s role in the future of the world, and whether the finale actually stuck the landing compared to other major TV endings like Stranger Things.They also run through all of the Rehashables categories including the most intense sequence, best character, emotional gut punch, biggest power move, scene-stealing character, and the storylines they would’ve cut completely. Along the way they discuss Antony Starr’s all-time performance as Homelander, the missed opportunity with the Gen V characters, Soldier Boy’s role in the final season, and why The Boys may have been one of the smartest shows on television underneath all the insanity.

The Mortgage Show: Waiting for the Perfect Rate, Fed Update, VA Loan Got Easier, Condos Got Harder

In this episode of The Mortgage Show, we break down where rates stand right now, why they’ve been so unpredictable, and why waiting for the “perfect” rate could actually cost you. We also talk through what we’re seeing in the market, with buyers gaining a bit more leverage, more negotiations happening, and better opportunities for FHA and VA buyers than we’ve seen in recent years. We also dive into a major upcoming shift in condo financing, including the removal of limited reviews and stricter reserve requirements, which could impact condo values and deal approvals moving forward. If you’re buying, refinancing, or selling, this is a quick, real-world snapshot of what’s happening right now and what to keep an eye on.

The Randy Forcier Podcast 131 - Sam Pecor: Rewrite Biddeford, Inside the Charter Commission

In this episode of The Randy Forcier Podcast, I sit down with Sam Pecor, who’s running for the Biddeford Charter Commission, to break down what this whole process actually is and why it matters more than most people realize. We get into what the city charter really does (think of it as Biddeford’s constitution), how often it gets revisited, and why 2026 is a big opportunity for change. Sam walks through the timeline, how the commission is formed, and what happens after the June 9th election. We also talk about real examples of what could be addressed, like staggered terms, compensation, simplifying the language of the charter, and making local government more accessible and accountable. There’s a good conversation around trade-offs too, every change has pros and cons, and that’s a big part of the process. If you’ve ever felt like local government decisions just “happen” without really knowing why, this is a good starting point. The goal here is simple, help more people understand what’s going on and why it impacts them every day. Whether you’re planning to vote or just want to be more informed about what’s happening in Biddeford, this is worth a listen.
