They discuss their thoughts on the podcast as it currently exists, how they feel about the movie twenty-one weeks in, as well as where the show might be headed into next year.

Detective Pikachu Week Eighteen: Is It Copaganda?

This week, Harrison and Ethan return to examine 2019's Detective Pikachu as a piece of copaganda.

They also attempt to break down copaganda as a whole and how this movie specifically falls into the landscape. Eighteen weeks in, and the brothers are still loving the ride.

Detective Pikachu Week Seventeen: Creating the World of Detective Pikachu Documentary

The Poole Brothers are back again to dissect 2019's Pokémon Detective Pikachu, and for this week, they finish with their journey through the bonus content with the 20-minute documentary "Creating the World of Detective Pikachu." They make comments on some behind-the-scenes information revealed as well as question everything they once thought they knew about the movie when it is revealed that there is a full 3D rendering of a Kingler that is not used outside of a still image. There're also a couple long tangents in this one that touch various topics loosely related to the movie at hand. It's a good time, and both brothers are happy to be on it.
