About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of Warner Bros. acquiring Paramount and the state of the entertainment industry.

Unfortunately we can’t afford a bunker, for either gooning or non-gooning activities. Instead we have to look at the news and see how we’re all getting reamed this time. It’s unfair that we can’t ruin movies with our daddy’s money. We’d be so good at it! Instead this buffoon is going to make the next few years of entertainment unbearable so we can’t even escape from all the terrible things that are happening. Embrace the slop. There are no rules. That said, in a surprise turn of events after we recorded this, Paramount aren’t moving forward with human garbage Max Landis’ treatment for G.I. Joe. We are honestly just as surprised as you are. We also changed the theme song because we kept getting yelled at.
