The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins premieres for the second time on NBC this Monday. Since the pilot already aired last month, and with its proximity to both the Olympics and the Super Bowl, we have to assume this sports sitcom has a lot to offer. On the podcast, we discuss Tracy Morgan’s character Reggie, and the documentary he is making about himself with the help of Arthur, a disgraced movie director (Daniel “I don’t want to be associated as a wizard, so I take every comedy role I can” Radcliffe).
Along with going over the plot, we play some trivia, talk about our favorite moments, surprises like Daily Show correspondent cameos, and what the early reception is looking like. Tune in to hear what we thought. Welcome to Today’s Episode!

The pilot of How to Get to Heaven from Belfast, a new Netflix comedy-thriller, follows a group of friends in their late 30s as they take a road trip into rural Ireland to the (fictional) town of Knockdara to pay their respects at their former friend’s wake. While delayed by car trouble, small-town logistics, goats, and hangovers, the anxious trio eventually finds themselves face-to-face with what might be the creepiest family in Ireland. In this podcast, we break down our favorite parts, the reveals, the genre-meshing and comparisons to Search Party, Yellowjackets, Pretty Little Liars, and The ’Burbs.

James Patterson’s Alex Cross was represented on the big screen for years until 2024, when Aldis Hodge (FNL, Leverage) stepped into the role of the forensic psychologist and D.C. detective.
In Season 2, Cross teams up with his partner John Sampson (Isaiah Mustafa) and his FBI frenemy Kayla Craig (Alona Tal) on a new case: stopping the assassination of a shady billionaire played by Matthew Lillard. As the new pair of villains/vigilantes target child-trafficking islands and Cross races to keep DHS from silencing his leads, we break down the first three episodes and highlight our favorite and least favorite moments.
We also give our thoughts on season 1, delve into comparisons, trivia, and production history. Tune in for our rating. Welcome to Today’s Episode!
