Podcaster.
The Becks have returned from vacation to bring you a BRAND NEW episode! They kick off vampire month with a shallow dive into the puddle that is Stephenie Meyer's Twilight. In this episode, the Becks tell cruise stories, stories from college, and anything else they can think to discuss besides the topic at hand. Sorry!

Listeners should not be afraid of their podcasts. Podcasts should be afraid of their listeners.
The Becks wrap up their graphic novel season with 2005's V For Vendetta, based on the graphic novel by Alan Moore and David Lloyd. In this episode, they discuss an LA heatwave, trans metaphors in the Wachowskis' films, and the ever growing creep of fascism. Don't worry, there's jokes too!

I am the man of constant podcasts
The Becks take some time off from their time off to bring you a brand new episode on the Coen Brothers' 2000 film O Brother, Where Art Thou?, based on Homer's classic epic The Odyssey. Join them as they deep dive into this very The Treatment-coded film, answering questions like: why are there so many cows? what happened to Odysseus' son? and did anyone on set even read the source material?

Some men are born podcasters, some record podcasts, and some have podcasts thrust upon them
The global tournament of international soccer (which we will not name for fear of being sued) is upon us, so the Becks are taking a look at the soccer movie She's the Man, inspired by William Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. How did Amanda Bynes give the world Channing Tatum? Should Bynes' character been allowed to be subbed off then subbed back on in the climactic soccer game? Which Beck pooped their pants in the 7th grade? All these answers and more in this brand new episode!
