Stuart’s most ostentatiously-named mini format makes a triumphant return, as he talks to us about the Emmys, and current TV in general.

e star of the show has returned, to answer all of our questions about ghost-sightings, but also to discuss the somehow both boring and wild adaptation of Henry James’s The Turn of the Screw, The Turning.

We talk a bit with one of Super Mario Bros.’s screenwriters, Mr. Parker Bennett.

Smalltember concludes with a doozy — Black Easter (previously titled Assassin 33 AD, in a slightly different edit) — the movie that dares ask “What if someone killed Jesus? …But not like, the people who ORIGINALLY killed Jesus. What if they were TIME TRAVELING MUSLIMS?”

Dan the infernal gamemaster returns to quiz Elliott and Stu on big Hollywood movies that the world has mostly forgotten.

America’s foremost hedgehog expert, Jamelle Bouie, returns to usher in Smalltember (vember) 2021, with our discussion of the make-work project for Dean Cain and Tara Reid, Andy the Talking Hedgehog.

Elliott asks Stu and Dan questions about video game movies in the form of a retro video game of the mind. Don’t worry; it makes sense when you listen. Mostly.

If the boss baby from The Boss Baby: Family Business can enlist her family for their wacky adventures, then why can’t Elliott make this a little more interesting by turning the podcast into his own little family business? His eldest son, Sammy, joins us for the movie discussion portion of the show!
