This fortnight, it’s the 10th anniversary of Moderate Fantasy Violence! Somehow Nick and Alastair have done this for a whole decade, and obviously, they celebrate by doing one of their double-recommendation episodes, this time focusing on releases from within the last ten years.
Nick’s suggested hot new comic series Absolute Batman (16:15) while Alastair’s plunging you into The Backrooms (34:30), the YouTube series by Kane PIxels about to become a movie from A24. If this chat makes you want to enter The Backrooms, here’s the playlist.
Plus bonus chat about Train Dreams, the next movie in the Oscar marathon, and Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 3.
Nick’s latest comic on Kickstarter, the second volume of The Collected Letters of Courier Z, is open for prelaunch signups here, if you want to really make sure you’re ready.

This fortnight, Nick and Alastair check out new scifi high-concept movie Mickey 17 and the third season of Invincible!
Last of all, they’ve also seen Invincible season 3 (38:38), the animated superhero series they’ve previously given rave reviews to. Will it keep up that quality? Includes heavy spoilers from 42:48.
This fortnight, Nick and Alastair go hungry with Starve Acre, before tucking in at trendy restaurant The Bear.
Last of all, a few months late thanks to Nick’s busy schedule, it’s The Bear season 3 (36:52) as the titular bistro finally opens and our unsuspecting cast face the full horror of Carmy enacting his dreams.
This fortnight, Nick and Alastair cover the second run of two podcast favourites: punk sitcom We Are Lady Parts and crime comic Newburn.
Lastly, it’s the second and final volume of Newburn (32:05) by Chip Zdarsky and Jacob Phillips. Can they bring the story to a satisfying conclusion? And is Nick ready for it to end?
