| 4/13/26 | S7 E5 - Grumpy Old Moon Man✨ | scienceexploration+3 | — | YouTubeDave's stand-up comedy debut | — | screen-timescience+3 | — | 49m 32s | |
| 2/24/26 | S7 E4 - Wall, Eeeeeee! | Rick wants to talk about his most prized possession. Hint: It's wall-related. Dave's is... shocker... Star Trek-related. Also on the docket: Apple's new AirTags and our reviews of four -- count 'em, four! -- movies that don't feature a superhero, a Vulcan, or a Will Smith. (One might have an alien, though.) | — | ||||||
| 2/8/26 | S7 E3 - TV Guide (But Not That One) | Rick has a pretty hot take on modern TVs, and it's so smart he almost convinces Dave he's right. Meanwhile, Dave reviews the cult fave "Dungeon Crawler Carl," and we dive into some crazy-cool new tech: exo-skeletons and digital art frames. | — | ||||||
| 1/26/26 | S7 E2 - The Episode That Almost Wasn't | Dave deserves a raise. The poor guy spent hours editing this episode, only to wind up with a corrupted file. So he had to edit the whole thing again from scratch! Don't worry, Rick bought him a pack of gum as a reward. Thank goodness it all worked out, because you do NOT want to miss this one. A preview: Highlights from CES 2026 (the robots are coming!)Early thoughts on "Starfleet Academy"We review "Stranger Things" S5 and the new Will Arnett movie, "Is This Thing On?"More bloopers than you can possibly imagine. (You DO stick around till the very end, right?) | — | ||||||
| 1/14/26 | S7 E1 - Is This Thing (Still) On? | We're back! Again! And we have new art that was clearly generated by AI, because Rick isn't that handsome and Dave isn't that young. Find out what we've been up to and stick around for our top TV, movie, and book picks of 2025. | — | ||||||
| 4/13/24 | S6 E4 - Now where were we.... | Promises were made. Things happened. Here's the whole story, plus an entire bonus episode of RADCTU to make up for it. | — | ||||||
| 10/3/23 | S6 E3 - PIVOT! | We're back after a loooong summer break to talk about, among other things, our favorite Saturday morning shows from childhood. (Surely SOMEONE else out there remembers The Lost Saucer?) Also: RADCTU is about to become... something else! We're going back to our recapping roots to celebrate one of the best shows of the past 25 years. Which one? Listen and find out! | — | ||||||
| 5/15/23 | S6 E2 - Is Marvel Over? | We saw Guardians Vol. 3 and we're not feeling... Marvel-ous about it. Wait, I feel like we made that joke before... Quick housekeeping note: One of us is traveling for a couple weeks so this will be it till June. Sorry about that! If you want to see a video version of the podcast, hop on over to Patreon and support the show! www.patreon.com/radctu | — | ||||||
| 5/8/23 | S6 E1 - Two Huge Surprises | The first: Picard S3 was not only really good, it also stuck the landing (though just barely). The second: Video!!! Our beloved and very much appreciated Patreon supporters can WATCH this episode. If you want to be one of those supporters, head to www.patreon.com/radctu | — | ||||||
| 3/5/23 | S5 E6 - The Truth About AirTags (and Other Item Trackers) | Needless to say, if we controlled the universe, these things would work a lot better. Plus: TV ketchup! Er, catch-up: We dive in on 1899 (way late) and Star Trek Picard S3 (just getting started). Cool people support us at www.patreon.com/radctu. Won't you join them? | — | ||||||

| 2/11/23 | S5 E5 - The Best Time Travel Movies | Journey back... and forward... and back as we name our favorite time-travel flicks. Wait, what about time-loop flicks? Do those count? You're probably on the edge of your seat... | — | ||||||
| 12/30/22 | S5 E4 - Our 10 Favorite Movies of All Time | Plus: What happens when you cross Pirates of the Caribbean with a movie about skinny blue space aliens? Avatarrrrr! (That's our way of saying we also reviewed The Way of Water. Spoilers ahead, matey!) | — | ||||||
| 12/23/22 | S5 E3 - A-I-A-I-Uh-Oh: The New Tech That Will Change Everything | It sounds like a South Park bit: "ChatGPT took our jobs!" But this new AI is shockingly competent and only going to get better. How screwed are we? Tune in, find out. Also: We watched Nope! Should you? Nostalgia alert: Willow is back! Yeah, THAT Willow, the one from 1988. | — | ||||||
| 11/30/22 | S5 E2 - Why So Serious, Cassian Andor? | Andor is without question the best Star Wars TV series ever. But is it great television? We have thoughts, yes, yes, we do. Plus: Some long-overdue Geek Talk and the best, easiest dessert we've tried in a looong time. Want to show your support for the show? Throw your couch-cushion pennies at us at Patreon. | — | ||||||
| 11/14/22 | S5 E1 - Won't You Be My Neighbor? | In which we deep-dive the supposedly wholesome Mister Rogers' Neighborhood to expose the alarming subtext of the cardigan sweater... Oh, wait, that's a different episode. This one is about a totally different kind of neighbor. Also Twitter. And the shows we've been watching. And our latest Prized Possession. (It's a GOOD one.) | — | ||||||
| 8/7/22 | S4 E7 - Summer Odds and Ends | RRR, Umbrella Academy, The Afterparty, an Andy Weir short story, and lots of other stuff that really form no cohesive theme to speak of. Also, bye for now! This ends S4... we'll be back soon with more nonsense! | — | ||||||
| 7/2/22 | S4 E6 - The Most Underrated Shows Of All Time | Looking for stuff that fell between the cracks of the stuff you love? Well, you're in for a treat, becuase this week Dave wrote the description you're reading right now, and he's here to tell you that you're about to find an handful of the most underrated TV shows and movies between the metaphorical cushions. And there's more: Rick and Dave challenge each other to a geeky duel, more of what we'd do if we controlled the universe, and other assorted nonsense. See you there. | — | ||||||
| 6/19/22 | S4 E5 - Are Fancy Headphones Worth It? | Plus: Maverick Impossible... er, Top Gun Maverick, Barry S3 (yikes), and Star Trek Strange New Worlds mid-season report (double-yikes). Hey, controlling the universe doesn't come cheap. Help support the show by becoming a patron! https://www.patreon.com/RADCTU | — | ||||||
| 5/28/22 | S4 E4 - The Best (and Worst) Series Finales Of All Time | So much to talk about, so little time. Solution? Just record a longer podcast. So buckle in, fans of nonsense, becuase this extra-long episode includes listener mail, everything we hate about Picard Season 2, our thoughts about Dr. Strange and Strange New Worlds... plus our list of the best and worst series finales of all time. Quantum Leap, we're coming for you. Plus: A new segment that's long overdue. Like what you're hearing?

| 5/3/22 | S4 E3 - The Greatest Arcade Games of All Time | Hot take: They were great in the 80s, but few of these coin-op classics really hold up. Because, let's face it, munching dots on a grid is no match for, say, slaying dragons or storming the beach at Normandy. | — | ||||||
| 4/4/22 | S4 E2 - The Best Superhero Movies, Period | In which Rick proves that superhero movies frequently defy the "sequels suck" rule, and Dave reveals questionable taste in superhero movies. Like what you're hearing? Help us control the universe by hitting up our Patreon page and dropping a few dollars. | — | ||||||
| 3/20/22 | S4 E1 - What We Watched on Our Winter Vacation | Season 4, baby! We're here to talk about Ozark (Dave is late to the party), Boba Fett (Rick wants out of this party), the new Star Trek movie, the Firefly reboot, and much much more. | — | ||||||
| 12/13/21 | S3 E7 - The Best of 2021: TV, Movies, and More | It's the last episode of the year and also of season three! Don't worry, we'll be back in the not-too-distant future (at which point Dave might be persuaded to share some legitimately wild news he's keeping close to the vest for now). Until then, enjoy our end-of-year best list. All the TV, movies, books, music, tech, and podcasts that made 2021 slightly more tolerable than 2020. (It had nowhere to go but up, am I right?) | — | ||||||
| 11/21/21 | S3 E6 - The Best TV Shows of All Time | That's right, we attempted the impossible: Whittling down decades' worth of amazing TV into our personal top-10 lists. Hey, we need your support! If you enjoy the show, consider throwing a few bucks our way via our Patreon page. Thank you! | — | ||||||
| 11/7/21 | S3 E5 - The Definitive Star Trek Movie Rankings | We've talked at length about the various Star Trek TV series, but what about the movies? We each compiled our own rankings, and the discussion that ensued was... let's just say "lively." See how our picks line up with yours! Hey, we need your support! If you enjoy the show, consider throwing a few bucks our way via our Patreon page. Thank you! | — | ||||||
