About this episode

This episode covers various new shows and films including Backrooms and Spider Noir, along with discussions on other entertainment topics.

We are spoiled for choice this weekend with a lot of, frankly, cool sh!t to watch on our screens. Simon takes a look at the creepy(pasta) Backrooms, while Dan checked out Spider Noir - the TV series that finally answers the question: What would Spider-Man be like as a 1930s private detective? There's also some chatter about Power Ballad, The Four Seasons, and the end of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
