| Die My Love | 29 May 2026 | 00:57:49 | |
This week, only you can prevent forest fires by giving your wife a little fucking attention. It’s an exploration of mad love and mental illness. Two guys talk about postpartum depression as we review Lynne Ramsay’s Die My Love. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| What Are You Into? Part X | 22 May 2026 | 00:30:39 | |
You are joining us for another perennial favorite here on Time Sensitive. At the end of nearly every episode, we ask our guest hosts a simple question: What are you into? Even though this sounds like a sexual invitation (it mostly isn’t), we ask our guests to focus on a movie, book, album, game, podcast, or pop culture subject they are currently enjoying. But no one ever asks Sam and Ian what they are into, so we have decided to devote a whole episode to our own pop culture proclivities. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Is This Thing On? | 15 May 2026 | 01:06:32 | |
This week, Marriage Story meets The Kings of Comedy. It’s the second film in Time Sensitive history that ceremoniously ends with Queen and David Bowie’s “Under Pressure.” Why can’t we just give love one more chance? It’s a comedy of remarriage. It’s Is This Thing On? co-written and directed by Bradley Cooper, the director of 2018’s A Star Is Born. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||

| It Was Just an Accident | 01 May 2026 | 00:53:34 | |
This week we explore an ongoing geopolitical conflict with a movie dubbed, “a blast of pure anti-authoritarian rage.” It’s a biting exercise in uncertainty. Perhaps it was intentional? Perhaps It Was Just an Accident.

| Ella McCay | 17 Apr 2026 | 00:50:12 | |
From the Oscar-winning romantic comedy writer, director, and producer James L. Brooks, meet Ella McCay, a film The Guardian called, “...a mess—a clunky collection of incoherent characters and confounding plot that seem to defy basic story logic at every turn.” Perhaps the film is not as good as it gets? You be the judge! Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Happy Filmversary! 2026 | 10 Apr 2026 | 00:36:38 | |
You are joining us for our annual celebration of cinema history, specifically those movies celebrating a milestone release anniversary in 2026. It’s a birthday of sorts. We call it a “Filmversary,” and this episode is an ode to those films that have stood the test of time 5, 10, 20, 50, and even 100 years after their original release due to box office success, cultural significance, and/or Oscar glory.

| Sovereign | 27 Mar 2026 | 00:58:59 | |
This week, we explore “Citizen Kane.” Not the Orson Welles classic, but the story of sovereign citizens Jerry and Joe Kane, a father and son who perpetrated unspeakable acts of violence in furtherance of their extremist ideology. SlashFilm even named it “The Most Underrated Movie Of 2025.” It’s Christian Swegal's Sovereign. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Oscars 2026 Post-Show | 20 Mar 2026 | 00:49:25 | |
The votes are in, history has been cemented, and a whole slew of new Academy Award winners are cuddling up with their Oscars as we speak.

| Relay | 06 Mar 2026 | 00:46:02 | |
This week, we explore a modern paranoid thriller in which Riz Ahmed and Lily James use old-school tech for the hearing impaired to engage in corporate espionage. Look out Big Pharma, it’s David Mackenzie’s Relay. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Oh, Hi! | 27 Feb 2026 | 00:43:45 | |
If you’re looking for a bleakly comedic look at modern dating—a situationship with a side of some light BDSM and the cabin-in-the-woods trope, this episode is for you. It is love or lunacy? It’s Sophie Brooks’s Oh, Hi! Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| A House of Dynamite | 20 Feb 2026 | 01:19:41 | |
“At the end of the Cold War, global powers reached the consensus that the world would be better off with fewer nuclear weapons. That era is now over.” It’s gripping cinema. It also feels like Obama fan fiction, and it ignores the basic tenants of nuclear strategy. It’s Kathryn Bigelow’s A House of Dynamite. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Twinless | 13 Feb 2026 | 01:36:29 | |
It’s the Golden Globe nominated Time Sensitive. We’ve got a great show for you this week. We are back for Season 8 with what Variety calls, “An ingeniously squirmy and borderline inappropriate ‘bromance.’” We’re talking codependence, grief, and discomfort that can point the way to deeper truths. It’s a Fight Club meetcute. It’s It Takes Two meets Dear Evan Hansen. Is it cruel, or is it kinky? Either way, it’s James Sweeney’s Twinless. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Season 8 Teaser | 08 Feb 2026 | 00:04:09 | |

| Megalopolis | 14 Nov 2025 | 00:55:04 | |
This is our final film review of Season 7, and we decided to go out with a bang: a bizarre labor of love that provokes as much confusion as it does admiration. A film fifty years in the making, equal parts science fiction, political allegory, and personal manifesto from one of the greatest living directors. It’s proof that some people still haven’t processed 9/11, and quite possibly the only place you’ll see an Asian Elvis impersonator singing “America the Beautiful.” It’s Megalopolis, written, directed, produced, and funded by the legendary Francis Ford Coppola. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Pavements | 07 Nov 2025 | 00:43:52 | |
This week, we profile—to borrow the headline from The New York Times—”A sly ode to the last band you’d give the biopic treatment.” Self-proclaimed as “a new experimental biopic-doc hybrid,” it’s designed to glorify Stockton—the Cleveland of California, deliberately alienate potential fans, commemorate the revolutionary act of singing out of tune, and both introduce and simultaneously immortalize the The World’s Most Important and Influential Band. It’s Alex Ross Perry’s Pavements. Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Cuckoo | 31 Oct 2025 | 00:55:29 | |
It’s that time of year again! Throughout the entire month of October, Time Sensitive has been devoted to blood, guts, and the BEST classic and under-the-radar horror films, and this week, we bring the 2025 edition of the Festival to a close with a dark ornithological fairytale. That’s right, this episode is going to the birds. Literally. It’s Tilman Zinger’s Cuckoo. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| It's What's Inside | 24 Oct 2025 | 00:56:25 | |
This week’s episode is not a profile of a traditional horror film, per se, but one which utilizes a conventional horror trope in a new way. If you could switch bodies with someone, would you do it? Maybe Greg Jardin’s It’s What’s Inside can make you change your mind? Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| The 28 Days Later Franchise | 17 Oct 2025 | 01:32:59 | |
It’s that time of year again! Throughout the entire month of October, Time Sensitive will be devoted to blood, guts, and the BEST classic and under-the-radar horror films. We won’t be profiling a single film in this episode. We won’t be profiling two films in this episode. We will be profiling and comparing all three films of the 28 Days Later franchise, which span over two decades, and will continue to thrill audiences in the coming years. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Nosferatu | 10 Oct 2025 | 00:54:18 | |
“Enduring night. A spectre of death. He spreads his shadow, and he’s coming.” An intertitle from a 1922 film reads: “Nosferatu. Does this word not sound like the deathbird calling your name at midnight? Beware you never say it—for then the pictures of life will fade to shadows, haunting dreams will climb forth from your heart and feed on your blood.” This week, we continue our seventh annual Freaky Film Festival with a gothic horror remake. Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Oddity | 03 Oct 2025 | 01:05:13 | |

| Venice and TIFF 2025 Recap | 26 Sep 2025 | 00:38:14 | |
Oh, yeah, eh? It’s-a movie time! From the canals of Venice to the shores of Lake Ontario, Sam and Ian will tell you exactly what you need to know from the 2025 Venice and Toronto International Film Festivals, and how they are shaping the 2026 Oscar race. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Poorly Explained Movies | 19 Sep 2025 | 00:35:14 | |
Every time Sam and Ian review an under-the-radar movie on this show, we read the distributor’s own stylized plot description—likely drafted by a team of marketing professionals—before providing our own. And oftentimes, the PR language from the studio fails to accurately describe the movie, leading us to believe we watched something totally different. This week, we decided to really play that up in our version of Brass Monkey’s “Poorly Explained Movies Game.’ Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Comic Timing: Four Pills (Cameron Esposito) | 12 Sep 2025 | 01:05:28 | |
This week, we are excited to host our annual Comic Timing episode, where we give the full Time Sensitive treatment to a standout comedy special from the last year. Our subject for this episode: Cameron Esposito’s Four Pills. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| September 5 | 05 Sep 2025 | 01:16:15 | |
Today, we’re rewinding the tape to Munich, 1972, on the 53rd anniversary of “the decisive moment that forever changed media coverage and continues to impact live news today.” It’s a story of sport turned spectacle, where broadcasters became first responders and one billion people watched history unfold live. Grab your headsets and roll camera. It’s the day terror went live. It’s Tim Fehlbaum’s 94-minute bullet train about media ethics titled September 5. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| The Surfer | 29 Aug 2025 | 00:47:32 | |
This week, Nicolas Cage is The Surfer. But don’t let that fool you. He’s still unhinged, bloody, tense, gun-wielding, manic, fabulously bonkers, and gayly attacking locals with tire irons, rats, and assorted signage. He’s a weirdo losing his shit. Shock! It’s Lorcan Finnigan’s The Surfer. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| KPop Demon Hunters | 22 Aug 2025 | 00:53:13 | |
This week, we are jumping on the bandwagon because it’s become impossible to ignore. I can’t believe I am saying this, we are profiling Netflix’s new smash hit, KPop Demon Hunters. This PG-rated animated film has tapped into one of the globe’s most profitable crazes, captured audiences of all ages, generated nearly 200 million views, and topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart—in a matter of weeks. Stay “Golden,” and take a listen.

| The Vault: Leaving Las Vegas | 15 Aug 2025 | 00:55:40 | |
This week, we open the Vault again and step inside the cage with an Oscar-winning performance from one of Time Sensitive’s most prolific featured performers. The road to nowhere is about to take a detour. It’s 1995’s Leaving Las Vegas. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||

| The Room Next Door | 25 Jul 2025 | 01:04:50 | |
This week, we really turn up the octane with a solemn contemplation of terminal disease, broken families, the climate crisis, and death with dignity alongside two of Hollywood’s palest women. It’s Pedro AlmoDOvar’s The Room Next Door. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| The Vault: Se7en | 18 Jul 2025 | 01:00:28 | |
This week, we once again open the Vault, repent our sinful ways and find out “what’s in the box,” as we celebrate the 30th anniversary of David Fincher’s Se7en. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Forced to Watch: Ian and MacGruber | 11 Jul 2025 | 00:36:44 | |
You've gotten to know Sam and Ian over the last six seasons of Time Sensitive, and by now, it should be clear what we do and don't like. Well, now we are forcing each other to embrace those things that we don’t like, as we continue a series called “Forced to Watch.” This week, Ian is forced to watch Jorma Taccone's MacGruber. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Marmalade | 27 Jun 2025 | 00:47:49 | |
Everybody loves a heist movie, and this week, we root for lovers on the run in a wild ride modern Bonnie & Clyde story, evoking the 90s heist aesthetic, with a BigPharma twist. It’s Marmalade, written and directed by Keir O’Donnell. Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Jaws 50th Anniversary | 20 Jun 2025 | 00:57:34 | |
Time Sensitive has a special episode for you this week to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the theatrical release of Jaws. That’s right, this episode drops on June 20, 2025, fifty years TO THE DATE of the movie that revolutionized cinema, introduced the summer blockbuster, and to this day, still makes audiences afraid to go in the water. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Grand Theft Hamlet | 13 Jun 2025 | 00:57:16 | |
To paraphrase Shakespeare, “It is a tale told by three idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” “So shall you hear of carnal, bloody, and unnatural acts, of accidental judgments, casual slaughters, of deaths put on by cunning and forced cause. And, in this upshot, purposes mistook, fallen on the inventors’ heads.” It’s Grand Theft Hamlet, the COVID-initated, machinima documentary written and directed by Sam Crane and Pilly Grylls. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| A Different Man | 06 Jun 2025 | 00:59:18 | |
This week, we’re peeling off prosthetics, unpacking identity crises, and trying really hard not to cast our friends in plays about their own trauma. Is it satire? Is it horror? Is it a giant metaphor about who gets to tell whose story? Yes. That’s right—we’re pulling up a chair at one of the most uncomfortable dinner scenes we’ve seen since Hereditary as we dive into A Different Man, the 2024 surreal psychological dramedy written and directed by Aaron Schimberg. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Cannes 2025 Recap | 30 May 2025 | 00:36:34 | |
Bon jour, and welcome to the show. Ian is currently wearing a voluminous outfit that both hinders the proper flow of traffic of guests and complicates seating in the theater, and Sam is currently nude, as we protest the new Cannes dress code, rub shoulders with honorary Palme D’Or winners Robert De Niro and Denzel Washington, and dodge falling palm trees as we celebrate the 78th Cannes Film Festival.

| Holland | 23 May 2025 | 01:03:20 | |
This week, we’re going Dutch… Well, sort of. The original spec script describes it as a “Hitchock-ian style thriller with black humor.” However, much like the titular town, in the words of its lead character Nancy Vangergroot, this movie is “like carbon dioxide. It’s so sleepy and comfortable, and you won’t even know you’re suffocating.” It’s Mimi Cave’s Holland. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| What Are You Into? Part IX | 16 May 2025 | 00:45:30 | |
You are joining us for another perennial favorite here on Time Sensitive. At the end of nearly every episode, we ask our guest hosts a simple question: What are you into? Even though this sounds like a sexual invitation (it mostly isn’t), we ask our guests to focus on a movie, book, album, game, podcast, or pop culture subject they are currently enjoying. But no one ever asks Sam and Ian what they are into, so we have decided to devote a whole episode to our own pop culture proclivities. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Monkey Man | 09 May 2025 | 00:53:41 | |
It’s a subject we’ve covered many times on the pod with reviews of You Were Never Really Here, The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then the Bigfoot, Bacurau, Promising Young Woman, Pig, Vengeance, and of course, Do Revenge. How could we forget Thelma? We have even covered a revenge flick set in India with the triumphant RRR. Needless to say, it’s a subject we know and love, but few revenge movies come as sexy and stylish as Dev Patel’s Monkey Man. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod | |||
| Hundreds of Beavers | 02 May 2025 | 00:50:50 | |
This might be the most bizarre film ever reviewed on Time Sensitive, and yet it is one of the most critically-acclaimed. Return to the nineteenth century for a slapstick, furry-infused, Elmer Fudd/Bugs Bunny-style, brutally genocidal survival film. Sam, what’s worse than an eager beaver? Hundreds of Beavers, directed by Mike Chesslik.

| Kneecap | 18 Apr 2025 | 01:20:57 | |
There are over seven million people on the entire island of Ireland. 80,000 of those are Irish speakers. Only 6,000 of those Irish speakers live in Northern Ireland. Three of those are rappers. This is their story. It’s a rage against the machine… of oppression. It’s Rich Peppiatt’s Kneecap.
