This fortnight, we finally reach the last season of The Boys (14:24), and fair warning, the spoilers are all over this one, so I’d not listen to this until you’ve seen the show if that’s a concern. And then we also review Star Wars: The Mandalorian & Grogu (40:32), with a little more spoiler discpline.
Plus bonus chat about Detectorists and the Evangelion anniversary special.
