The Toy Department – Episode 322

In Episode 322, Madden and Kolsky discuss the Kolsky-family-induced pivot in their recording situation before transitioning seamlessly into:

  • The new Hulu/FX show Fleishman is in Trouble (2:15) and how engaging the story and acting performances are…
  • Sylvester Stallone’s new show Tulsa King (10:20) and what a surprising delight it turned out to be…
  • The Sam Rockwell film See How They Run (18:30) and how our hosts have VERY different views of the movie, plus thoughts on the recent trend of colorblind casting…
  • The definitely not good Don’t Worry Darling (33:05) and how it fails to do justice to an extremely talented cast…
  • The latest episode of The Challenge: Ride or Dies (40:40) including the incredible performance of Jordan and the emotional display from Laurel, plus the idiocy of Jay (and Michele)…
  • Homework for TWO Friday’s from now (1:04:05), including: the Netflix documentary Stutz, the new Hulu show Welcome to Chippendales, the Netflix show Wednesday from Tim Burton, the FIFA Uncovered documentary on Netflix and OF COURSE the next TWO episodes of The Challenge: Ride or Dies…

The Toy Department – Episode 12

In Episode 12, Derek Madden and Matt Kolsky talk Peak/Prestige TV straight-up for about 45 minutes. We could list all the damn shows they talk about, but there are no spoilers and that seems like an awful lot of listing to do, so probably best to just dive in and listen to the whole thing 🙂

The Toy Department – Episode 11

In Episode 11, Derek Madden and Matt Kolsky get right into the thick of things with a Kanye West deep dive… All jokes aside, there’s a lot to get into with Mr. West – from his music to his internet behavior, he is nothing if not interest-worthy! Then it’s a little bit of a sports injection with a brief discussion of the Duke/UNC rivalry and college sports in general (40:30), before closing with some TV talk (48:50) as the winter/spring season starts to kick into gear!!
