This week, we’re diving into star power and swordplay. First up, we review Glenn Powell’s newest film, How to Make a Killing, breaking down the performances, the twists, and whether this darkly comic thriller lives up to the hype. Is Powell officially in his leading-man era? We debate.

Then we head to Westeros to talk about A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms on HBO Max. Does this smaller-scale Game of Thrones story capture the magic of the original series? We discuss the tone, the characters, and where it fits in the ever-growing fantasy universe.

To close things out, we get chaotic in the best way possible with a five-on-five basketball draft — but with a twist: every player must be a Pixar character. Who’s running point? Who’s dominating the paint? And which one of us built a championship squad?

Movies, medieval drama, and animated athleticism — let’s get into it.
