No. 604 | “Oh he’s the good drug dealer.”

mardi 14 octobre 2025 • Duration 01:22:31

We’re back with a special pod and a special guest. Sara joins us to talk about the 1999 film Go, by Doug Liman and John August. What a blast from the past this movie is. Young Katie Holmes! Timothy Olyphant stealing everything! Mannie still sucks! “It’s all right, I’m okay!”


The final book in our Trouble: Girl Detective mystery series is out now! Order Trouble to the Last Drop on Kindle, Paperback, or Hardcover now!

603 | “The closer you look, the less you’ll see”

mardi 29 octobre 2024 • Duration 02:15:38

We’re back with an actual movie pod! This week we’re joined by special guest Ally to discuss the magic heist classic Now You See Me, starring Mark Zuckerberg as the tastefully named J. Daniel Atlas, lothario magician! A lot of people hated this movie, but we kinda dug it. There’s magic! And heists! And magic-fu fighting! And then the movie kinda runs out of steam. But still, a fun watch. Also, some spoilerific Game On, Trouble talk at the end, you’ve been warned!

No. 507 | “You can be my wingman anytime”

lundi 23 mai 2022 • Duration 01:49:19

The guys are back to talk about some recent films and their general disaffected ennui with the state of TV and the Cinema (4:40). Then they travel back to a simpler time of F-14 Tomcats, bomber jackets, and baby oil, to discuss Top Gun (12:24). Plus, a short Trouble update at the end (1:45:49).

No. 020 | “Invincible Sword Goddess”

mercredi 28 mars 2018 • Duration 01:47:18

This week, we’re discussing the underrated classic Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (8:02). Marco and Benji both love this film, and have a lot of fun revisiting it. We are both obviously big Jen Yu stans. Also, some brief conversation on the Overboard reboot trailer (5:57) and Pacific Rim: Uprising (00:00).

No. 019 | “Porpentina’s hot dogs”

mardi 20 mars 2018 • Duration 02:35:33

Live-ish from Los Angeles, Marco is in town to join Benji for a special episode of Headcanon where we finally give Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (02:30) the full podcast treatment. Also discussed, The Crimes of Grindelwald trailer and the future Wizarding World movies (01:50:06). Later, we head into spoiler territory to offer some thoughts on Tomb Raider (02:04:11) and Love, Simon (02:11:07).

No. 018 | “Witch, please!”

mardi 13 mars 2018 • Duration 01:45:16

It’s a busy episode this week on Headcanon. First, of course, we are required to discuss Taylor Swift’s new music video for “Delicate.” (01:39) Then we give our thoughts on Lucy Hale’s new pilot Life Sentence (09:50). Our main focus is the very bad 2013 film Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters (20:23), but we also give our spoiler-y thoughts on Red Sparrow (01:18:12) and Thoroughbreds (01:27:39) at the end of the podcast. Enjoy!

No. 017 | “#%&@ off, Logan!”

mercredi 7 mars 2018 • Duration 01:56:46

After some Oscar talk (02:01), the bros take a look at the 2017 film Logan (16:16), which Marco had never seen before. It’s bloody and shocking and surprisingly moving and we really liked it. Patrick Stewart is crushing it, and poor Eriq La Salle’s family just didn’t deserve that.

No. 016 | “I just missed your heart”

mardi 27 février 2018 • Duration 01:55:42

Marco and Benji are a little all over the place this week. Ostensibly, their focus is on the 2011 film Hanna (07:24), but neither are too fussed with it. Also discussed: The PLLerfectionists, Christopher Nolan’s best movies, Annihilation (52:45), Munich, Padme Amidala’s dumb character, Oscar picks (1:20:47), and more.

No. 015 | “Secrets are lies”

mardi 20 février 2018 • Duration 02:09:39

Benji and Marco take in the seminal 2017 film The Circle. Is social media a net positive for society? Should Marco go fully transparent? Is Boyhood bro’s death the most satisfying moment in the film? Is John Boyega’s character real? All this and more are discussed on the pod (01:56). Then at the end we talk about Black Panther for about a half hour (01:40:48). Beware of SPOILERS!

No. 014 | “The Hope Hicks Simulator Edition”

mercredi 14 février 2018 • Duration 01:42:16

Contrary to previous plans, we are not doing The Circle this week. Instead we’re going to finish off the ill-begotten Fifty Shades franchise with Fifty Shades Freed, now in theater. Spoilers abound, as if anyone cares about spoiling this dumb movie.
