RBR #122: "Star Wars 101: The Phantom Curriculum”

Episode 122

Wednesday, June 25, 2025 • Duration 45:18

What happens when you unleash a classroom of students on Star Wars Episodes I–VI and give them microphones? Chaos. Glorious, Force-fueled chaos.

We’re joined by Dennis Keithly and Cory Clubb for a deep (and slightly derailed) dive into the entire Skywalker Saga—from podracing physics to Palpatine’s masterclass in long-game evil.

Is The Phantom Menace a misunderstood gem? Did the Jedi Council deserve to be Force-cancelled? And why does Obi-Wan keep losing the high ground?

Welcome to “Star Wars 101: The Phantom Curriculum.” Take notes. There will be a quiz.

RBR #121: "The Prestige: Nolan’s Best Twist - and His Pettiest Movie Ever"

Episode 121

Wednesday, June 11, 2025 • Duration 01:13:55

For this episode, the latest in our series on the films of Christopher Nolan, we’re diving into The Prestige — the movie that proves Nolan can turn two magicians battling it out for “Most Extra” into a work of art. Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale destroy their lives for a trick, but it’s the kind of destruction that makes you think, “Maybe I should be that obsessed with something.” We’re here to praise Nolan’s genius, David Bowie’s perfect cameo, and the mind games at play. No, we still don’t fully get the ending, but wow — what a ride.

Warning: Contains deep admiration for The Prestige's intricate layers, confusing plot twists, and the sheer audacity of its brilliance.
