Grab your giant mallets, pack the dynamite, and make sure you aren't standing under a falling anvil—the studio is getting absolutely looney this week!
Honoring the Titans of PositivityBefore the crew paints a tunnel on a brick wall, Hosts Eddie and Spencer, along with Intern Manager/Managing Intern Amy, take a heartfelt moment to step back and honor three monumental pillars of positivity and courage the world recently lost: Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, and Peter Cullen.
The trio regales the incredible efforts of these icons, celebrating their towering contributions across stage and screen. From their unforgettable performances to their foundational, unwavering belief in everyone's right to exist out loud and with pride, the crew pays tribute to their lives. Their physical presence may be gone, but the team hopes their messages of love, courage, and authenticity will continue to echo loudly in every heart they've touched.
The Trial of the Century: Coyote vs. AcmeOnce the tissues are put away, the team waltzes their way right into the merrie melodies of discussion to review one of the most surprising, hard-fought theatrical releases of the decade: Coyote vs. Acme.
Eddie, Spencer, and Amy dive headfirst into the infamous, real-world David-and-Goliath battle surrounding the movie. They break down the shocking controversy and nefarious efforts by Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav to permanently shelve the project as a tax write-off, and celebrate the sheer triumph of the film escaping the corporate vault.
The crew reviews the film itself, praising its surprisingly massive heart, razor-sharp writing, and the deeply resonant themes of the ultimate underdog taking a stand. It is a cinematic victory against the very corporate greed that tried to keep it down.
Did Wile E. Coyote finally catch a win in the courtroom, or did the ACME corporation pull a fast one? Tune in to find out!
