THANK YOU for PUSHING PLAY Nostalgia, Noise, and Neat 4K Toys: Grogu, Guts, and Fight Club Another week and another VERY fun show!! This week: Autographs, Mandalorians, Kills & Fights!! Enjoy! Lets get into ALL our Home Theater Experiences! So much fun! “If you can’t laugh while talking Home Theater, you’re doing something wrong .” Right? Push Play and hear for yourself. In this episode, Steve and DJ kick things off with some banter about heat waves across the UK and Europe, home theater sanctuaries, and accidental Tuesday insights before diving headlong into two big features and a catalog classic.

Then they go full-throttle into They Will Kill You, a deliriously gory, Looney Tunes-meets-John Wick fever dream with standout home theater moments (rain, thunder, and bone-crunching effects galore) and a surprisingly solid emotional throughline. The guys wrap up with the new 4K of Fight Club: Fincher’s frame-by-frame refresh delivers…
