The Teebs and KidPhoenix VS Podcast is back! After your hosts' federally mandated hiatus, Teebs and KidPhoenix have returned from whatever multiversal madness they were trapped in and returned to the sacred timeline! This week is a catch up episode. We know what they've done all summer, but no one else does. What have they been watching? What have they been doing? What are they looking forward to, and what do they think of recent nerd news that has released or is soon to be released.2024-10-2351 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSVS San Diego Comic Con 2024LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, IT IS THAT TIME AGAIN! It is July, and KidPhoenix has been on an airplane (or pair of airplanes) to convene with Teebs in San Diego for San Diego Comic Con 2024! Your hosts preview this year's Con -- the first since the actors and writers strikes last summer. Savanah Tiffany (now a seasoned veteran attendee) also joins your hosts to tell you all what panels you can find us in ... for example ...

As fun as it is for Teebs and KidPhoenix to speak ill of media conglomerates like Disney or Time Warner, that gets exhausting to say the least. Your hosts switch it up a little this week with a little exercise. A random decade was selected and movie titles were generated using ChatGPT. With only those two elements, Teebs and KidPhoenix will have to assemble a director and cast to pitch an action movie from the 2000s.

Since Teebs hasn't "watched a single frame" of show, it will be up to KidPhoenix to carry the ball in the first half of the episode and give his feelings of the show after four (five as of today) episodes. After the break, Teebs would like to get in to some of the negative discourse around the show in various aspects and voice some concerns and dislikes over how the show was treated prior to its release. Like, follow and...2024-06-2643 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSVS The Sony/Alamo MergerSomething that Teebs and KidPhoenix speculated on previously in series two happened this past week. (They're clairvoyant AF, people!) Brent Lang at Variety reported on the purchase of the Alamo Drafthouse -- a movie theater chain in multiple states across the United States. While the chain isn't as big as Regal or AMC, it does reveal that production companies are at least thinking about controlling movie releases from production to distribution. Your hosts discuss whether or not this is a one-off situation or the start of a potentially dangerous trend. There are pros and cons...2024-06-1938 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSVS Summer Game FestSince the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) is no longer a thing (R.I.P.), the Summer Game Fest -- an expo similar to E3 but hosted primarily online -- is all gamers have in the summer to see what video game companies are developing in the next year (or quarter as they do in that industry). Teebs and KidPhoenix are on the job with what they took away from this year's Summer Game Fest. What did they take away? What are they excited for (if anything because you know how they are with video games)? ...2024-06-1245 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSVS Star Wars: The AcolyteThe summer is here which means there will be lots of new content for the kids on summer vacation to consume. If you're a Star Wars kid (of any age), "The Acolyte" was released last night before the taping of this podcast. Teebs and KidPhoenix will be having a "first thoughts" pod soon, but you can (and should) check the socials to see how your hosts feel about the show. On the pod, today, Teebs and KidPhoenix preview some of the plot points and characters of the show and then ask the Star Wars developers...2024-06-0539 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSVS Fast FoodEvery once in a while, your hosts like to take a time out from talking about pop culture to discuss something that (allegedly -- according to Teebs) is enjoyed when your hosts talk about -- and that's food!

Teebs and KidPhoenix love to go down the rabbit hole from time to time and give a few suggestions of films (especially from the sci-fi boom of the 90s) that should receive ... a flower. They don't get the entire bouquet, but they should get at least one piece of floral acknowledgement. For every Matrix, there is a Johnny Mneumonic. For every Universal Soldier, there is a ... Soldier. For every Independence Day, there is a Volcano.2024-05-0156 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSVS AlienIn 1979, Ridley Scott took a story from writer Dan O'Bannon and turned it into one of the greatest franchises in pop culture history: "Alien". The franchise has gone through several evolutions in story telling and tone, but the core DNA (or at least parts) of the original Alien movie are in each new iteration. For "Alien Day" -- which is this Friday, April 26 -- Teebs and KidPhoenix discuss the movies and video games of this storied IP franchise and why each are special in their own way.

This is a continuation of the X-Men cartoon from the early/mid 1990s. Teebs and KidPhoenix give their thoughts on the show to this point. Does it capture the spirit of the original or is it better? Are there aspects they don't like? This leads into the next discussion about media companies tapping into the past with X-Men '97 as well as other properties like "Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire" and the soon to be released "...2024-04-1045 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSVS A 10-Year Anniversary of 2014The year is 2014. It is a strange transitional year for pop culture and media. We are years removed from the last Star Wars movie and years before its return. The Lord of the Rings trilogy has come and gone. The Marvel Cinematic Universe was still a bit in its infancy -- but ten years ago, some important debuts made their way to the big screen, little screen and consoles. Today, Teebs and KidPhoenix look back at some of those properties and place some things like Guardians of the Galaxy, True Detective and Alien: Isolation in...2024-03-2757 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSVS The PROPOSED TikTok BanSocial media has become a way of life for many people. Whether it's Facebook, Instagram, X, BlueSky or all of the above, many around the world are on these platforms. One social media platform that has been hotly contested of late is TikTok (sort of the evolution of vine -- if you're old enough to remember that). The United States Congress passed a proposed measure that would effectively ban TikTok (or at the very least make it very difficult, financially). Teebs and KidPhoenix give their thoughts on the proposed measure and try to figure out...2024-03-2042 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSVS The Great Debate: Tom vs. Jerry - Who is the Bigger A**holeThere are great rivalries all throughout media and television: Jedi vs. the Sith, Marvel vs. DC, Autobots vs. Decepticons. There is only one O.G. pop culture rivalry, and it involved a cat and a mouse. In 1940, Tom and Jerry were a pair of animals that shared a bond that was forged on mutual hatred. Today, Teebs & KidPhoenix put it up for debate. Who was the bigger a**hole? Tom the cat or Jerry the mouse? Like and follow the show on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Teebs and KidPhoenix could care less about stock prices, but it's worth wondering if we're witnessing the beginning of the decline in console gaming. With consoles (and games) being as expensive as they are in 2024, are we hitting some kind of breaking point where console makers have to re-think some of their planning strategies for future consoles after the PS5/XBox Series X/S era?

Your hosts have taken their regularly scheduled 90-day vacation between Christmas and New Year's and have returned during a month that is pretty on the nose: Black History Month. Regardless, Teebs and KidPhoenix have returned, and they're hoping that 2024 will be at least sort of decent in terms of what to watch, what to follow and what to indulge in when it comes to film and TV.

Let's face it. We all need to do something else because the television landscape has changed quite a bit since the Second Golden Age of Television (aka "Prestige TV"). Streaming services have transformed television as we know it, so those golden days of shows like "The Sopranos", "The Wire" and other HBO heavy hitters (which paved the way for the "Breaking Bad"s and "Orange is the New Black"s of the world don't show up in the landscape as often.

There are Halloween candies that are head and shoulders above all candies ... ones that are average ... and those ones that should not be given out to children under any circumstances for they will ruin their trick or treating experience.

Each person on the panel will select one film that will go down in history as being selected by some of the most elite former video store employees that the city of Philadelphia (nay, the entire world) have or will ever see on this plane of existence. ...2022-11-231h 04Teebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs & KidPhoenix VS The Video Library Reunion Podcast: Part IWhen it comes to the period of time that shaped Teebs & KidPhoenix the most, many time periods can be pointed to: growing up in West Philadelphia in the 80s and 90s, living in San Diego and going to Comic Cons in the 2000s. However, if there is one period of time that formed your nerdy, outspoken hosts the most, it would be the period of time where both Teebs and KidPhoenix worked at the Video Library in Philadelphia. The Video Library was an old-school video rental establishment that was a staple of the city of Philadelphia for...2022-11-161h 08Teebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs & KidPhoenix VS The Thanksgiving FeastWith Halloween in the rear view mirror (unless you're simply counting down the days until Halloween 2023), the next holiday on the calendar approaches just as Series Two of the podcast comes to its conclusion: Thanksgiving. Regardless of how you feel about the history of the holiday, there's one thing that everyone can agree on. The food served at Thanksgiving dinner is epic on a level that defies description if you happen to have a family that gets down on the holiday like that -- or you have a friend who's family gets down on the holiday like...2022-11-091h 05Teebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs & KidPhoenix VS American Horror StoryIt is the final installment of the 2022 Teebs and KidPhoenix Halloween Spectacular!

Now ... BABY SIS COMES ON FOR A FULL PODCAST! Baby Sis joins Teebs and KidPhoenix for a deep dive on the "American Horror Story" series.

One of the most recognized horror movies of all time ("Halloween") was created and made by John Carpenter. Carpenter was always his own director. He made the films he wanted to in the ways that he wanted. From straight up horror movies like "Halloween" and "The Thing" to more science fiction movies like "Escape from New York" or just weird fun movies like "Big Trouble in Little China", Carpenter dipped in many different genres from the 1970s until...2022-10-261h 07Teebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs & KidPhoenix VS ScreamA Teebs and KidPhoenix Halloween continues! Your hosts love slasher films -- Teebs more than KidPhoenix since that's part of his job as a card carrying member of Horrorgasm. That being said, there have been a bevy of slasher properties since the original Friday the 13th movie. The most recent is Ghostface from the "Scream" franchise. The 25th anniversary of "Scream 2" is this year, but since your hosts did not record a podcast last year for the 25th anniversary of the original, they're doing it this year. Scream is the slasher film that most born...2022-10-1233 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs & KidPhoenix VS Horror Video GamesThe calendar officially says "October". So begins the month long Teebs and KidPhoenix VS Halloween Spectacular! For the entire month, your hosts are releasing topics of the spooky nature. Topics that chill the bones. Topics that heighten suspense. Topics that make you wonder what that "bump in the night" was as you're listening. (And all the other cliches having to do with scaring the hell out of someone.) To kick things off, your hosts, Teebs and KidPhoenix are talking about horror video games. As great as horror movies are, sometimes, you want something...2022-10-0544 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs & KidPhoenix VS Fandom IISince this is series two, it's only fair that your hosts do a true sequel. It's a topic that is (not so) nice, but they're doing it twice because it's a conversation that has to be addressed. Teebs and KidPhoenix once again get on their soap boxes to call out toxic fandom for what they perceive to be for no reason. (We suppose it's a REALITY that some people engage in toxic fandom for reasons.) None of those reasons make any true sense in the opinion of your hosts. There are ways to be a...2022-09-2844 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs & KidPhoenix VS Hot TakesTeebs and KidPhoenix are back! Series Two continues leading up to its epic series two finale (on a yet to be determined date). Your hosts missed all of you! They missed being in your headphones/speakers. They missed your reactions to their opinions on social media. Most of all, they missed giving you their hottest takes on a range of topics from pop culture to just life in general. That's what today's podcast is about -- the hottest takes that Teebs and KidPhoenix subscribe to!

After two years of not being put on and a lighter version of the event, SDCC returns in full scale this weekend. Your hosts, Teebs and KidPhoenix, are seasoned veterans of the Con. As such, they felt it was a good opportunity to give those attending (both first timers and other seasoned veterans) some of their best...2022-07-201h 05Teebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VS Fine ArtThe day is finally here! This is the podcast that your hosts have been teasing for at least six months, now. We told you it was going to happen. We hope it's worth the wait. It's Teebs (a noted art school graduate) and KidPhoenix (a noted art appreciator -- at times) discussing fine art. (Well, Teebs will discuss it. KidPhoenix will likely stumble over himself talking about it.) Your hosts discuss the importance of fine art in pop culture and common misconceptions about how art should be appreciated and taken in. Later, thanks to the...2022-07-0659 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VS Mental Health and Pop Culture(TW: Discussion of Mental Health and Mental Health Disorders) Today ... Your hosts, Teebs and KidPhoenix have an in-depth discussion of mental health after so many persons with uteruses in the United States may be in a state where their mental health may be shaken. Many people use pop culture as a way to soothe, relate, or even escape from the drudges of reality, and your hosts wanted to take a moment to talk about how pop culture shapes how mental health is depicted in media, where those depictions came from, and what kind(s) of...2022-06-2949 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VS Toxic FandomOnce again, ladies and gentlemen. Your hosts have decided to take a week off from the dick and fart jokes to talk about something serious. Lots of folks around the world have those properties they are passionate fans about. They voice their opinions -- very vocally on social media, nowadays. Sometimes, fandom can be very good. It brings people all over the world together for one common interest. Unfortunately, the adverse is true. Some of those same fans in these fandoms can create a toxic and unsafe environment for the collective at large. These are the folks that your...2022-06-2258 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VS Resident EvilThere are certain intellectual properties that are a fabric of the culture lexicon. Teebs and KidPhoenix are always out to celebrate those properties that are due for praise. With the announcement of the Resident Evil 4 Remake by Capcom, your hosts decided that this week would be a great opportunity to show their love and admiration for quite possibly the best horror video game franchise of all time -- Resident Evil. RE was a game that (sort of) launched with the original Playstation back in 1995, and this franchise has been terrorizing gamers ever since. It's a great deep dive into...2022-06-151h 10Teebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VS Violence and Pop CultureTW: Gun violence There is no easy way to discuss this topic, but your hosts Teebs and KidPhoenix will do their best to express how they feel about the tragedies in Texas and Buffalo, New York over the past two weeks. Words will be said. Opinions will be made. It's past the time where these tragedies happen, and they're dismissed as "business as usual" until the next one -- because as we've seen, unfortunately, there will be a next one. Your hosts tell you how they feel about what happened, where we are as a society with...2022-06-011h 00Teebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VS She-Hulk & The MCU Phase 4Another week. Another Marvel Disney+ series trailer. This time, it was the world debut of "Marvel's She-Hulk". That's right. Jennifer Walters has entered the MCU chat. Walters/She-Hulk is a favorite of Teebs, so of course, he's hype about it (as is KidPhoenix, but not to similar extents). Your hosts give their thoughts on how the series looks based off of a two-minute hype video -- because just about everyone else is. Why should they be any different? In the second half of today's pod, Teebs and KidPhoenix discuss Phase 4 of the MCU, and where...2022-05-2559 minTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VS Baby Sis (Again ...) and "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" ThoughtsShe's BAAAAAAAACK! "Baby Sis" has joined your hosts again on the podcast. Apparently, there was some umbrage taken with what her brothers Teebs and KidPhoenix had to say about slasher films last week. As a result, she has graced the podcast airwaves again to hack and slash at her brothers and leave a trail of blood and hurt feelings in her wake. We'll hear what she has to say in what is becoming a fan favorite and regular occurrence (not to regular if Teebs and KidPhoenix have any say).

It's an advanced greeting since we release podcasts on Wednesday, but who argues semantics? Certainly no one on this podcast! With Friday the 13th coming up in just two days, your hosts Teebs and KidPhoenix finally decided to take time out to talk about the genre of "slasher films" -- not the overall horror genre, but the slasher genre, specifically. What makes horror films so good (in their opinion)? Why do they like them? There is some talk about the big franchises like "Friday the 13th" and "A Nightmare on Elm...2022-05-111h 03Teebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VS The State of Star WarsMay the Fourth be with all of you! It is May 4th -- which is "Star Wars Day" -- and as such, your hosts Teebs and KidPhoenix are contractually obligated by the laws and regulations of nerd-dom to talk about a franchise that started a long time ago in a state kinda far away (from KidPhoenix, anyway). With the "Obi-Wan" series coming later this month and "Mandalorian: Season 3" on the horizon later this year, it's time to assess where the franchise is. Is there any content that your hosts are excited about?

It is the second of the Teebs and KidPhoenix Directors Series for this series of podcasts. This time, your hosts (along with returning guest Cory Slaton) invite you to come with us to the country of Amsterdam -- home of legal marijuana and the birthplace of Paul Verhoeven. Verhoeven directed films that are favorites of the panel (Robocop, Total Recall, and Starship Troopers). He has also directed films that were highly controversial in when they were released.

Pour the best vodka you have laying around with some vermouth, and shake that thing up. Don't stir it! James Bond does not like a stirred vodka martini. Neither do your hosts, for that matter, but that's beside the point. Teebs and KidPhoenix are going down yet another beloved pop culture universe: James Bond. Why is the Bond-verse great? Why is it an all-time display of cool and interesting? We'll discuss all of that with special guest Marion Copeland -- founder of "Watch It with Woobie" movie reviews -- because a podcast...2022-04-131h 34Teebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VSTeebs and KidPhoenix VS The Star Trek Draft - Part TwoIt is the fantabulous conclusion to the much anticipated Star Trek Draft.

Romero returned in the early 2000s for yet another "___ of the Dead" movie, but before that, Resident Evil took the genre to newer, more frightening heights.

Is that all that studios are capable of these days? Maybe. Maybe not. Your hosts Teebs and KidPhoenix discuss the direction that film and media studios have been trending over the last two decades or so. Why is this the new direction and what has led to it versus how it was back in the day (i.e. the 1970s/80s)? Is it a good thing to have new ideas or re-imagining of previous media?

Ghostbusters is a classic. It has aged incredibly well since its release in July of 1984. It spawned a sequel in 1989, a remake/reboot in 2016, a three-season animated cartoon, millions of dollars in merchandising and a cult following that very few films from that era have assembled.
