From Jessie and Lotso to Buzz Lightyear and Syndrome, he breaks down how Pixar proves that it's not what happens to you that defines you…it's how you choose to respond! In the Movie Review, Mike gives his thoughts on Toy Story 5 starring Tom Hanks and Tim Allen. Woody, Buzz, Jessie and the crew find themselves going up against a new tablet named Lilypad, who thinks she knows what's best for Bonnie, setting up a battle where Toys vs. Tech. Mike shares how they tricked us into watching a remake, if it’s worth paying money to see in theaters and where he thinks it ranks in the franchise. In the Trailer Park, Mike talks about The Social Reckoning, a companion piece to The Social Network which came out in 2010. It focuses on the fallout of the 2021 Facebook leaks, following whistleblower Frances Haugen and Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz as they expose the company's internal secrets. Mike wants to know if it’s too late for this movie and why Jesse Eisenberg turned it down. New Episodes Every Monday!
