Wick is Pain
The beginning is slow. I have talked a lot about the realism of the John Wick series and if you know, then you can see how it worked out here. Something super simple made there entire setup more real.

Unknown Number: The High School Catfish
As a note, I am intentionally not saying anything about the story outside of this as that is what makes this so wild. The ups and downs and whatnot is crazy. Also, one of the other hosts of the Epic Screen Time Podcast hasn't watch it yet.
TV
A Body in the Snow
To be honest, I am not sure how to write this/talk about this. The case is going to be retried, it isn't over. So the "Truth" isn't really out there. What I will say is that Karen isn't the type of person who makes sympathetic juries.
TV
Sins of Our Mother
These are the types of documentaries that I do not like. It is just an expanded story of what happened with the son providing some commentary. No answers, not additional story, nothing that I couldn't read in the news really.
TV
The Tylenol Murders
I knew that it was this event that created the foil over the top of the pill bottle, but under the lid. Why do I know that? I have no idea I think my mom talked about it at some time when I was a kid. Probably when she was telling me to get a different pill package because it might be tampered with.
TV
Escaping Utopia
The organization is very much a rag tag group. The issue is that there are so many conflicting stories from those that have left vs. those that are still in. The women who were born in this religious organization have been convinced what they see, what they have been part of, is normal.
TV
Titan: The OceanGate Disaster
It is a little larger than life at times with “The Whistle Blower,” “The Engineer,” etc splashing across the screen when you first get introduced to someone. I think there is even a part where they are looking the other direction, looking like a Bond villain stroking a cat.
TV
Spycraft (Netflix)
I didn't like this show. The narrator was awful, the interviews were so wave top that you never felt like you got anything good. It didn't even talk about the book it came from. On of the authors is one of the interviewed people.
TV
MythBusters
"MythBusters is a Trojan Horse of reason, hiding behind a thin veil of explosives." "Sciencebait rather than jailbait." This is a super entertaining show, just don't binge-watch it.
TV
MH370 The Lost Flight
While I typically try and be fair/easy of movies/tv shows, that will not happen with this one. Conspiracy theory central. This entire show is 100% a cash grab or "LOOK AT ME" by Jeff Wise. He is an aviation reporter and basically the entire show is him making the most outrageous theories possible.
