  ANNOUNCEMENT 28.07.2026

  we are back? fuller text from youtubelike platforms: It's Sam! Final V3 is coming back (on a trial basis) and the first episode is going up for you now. We've made one real change: we've stopped filtering episode topics by whether they'll float an hour-long recording. When we have a topic, we're gonna chat about it, and it's gonna last however long it lasts. Asking "Can we get an hour out of this" killed a lot of episodes before we ever got to record, and it didn't work anyway. Keeping in mind that we're allowing ourselves to make shorter cuts, our first episode back is a full hour long. (Patreon billing will NOT resume yet, I'm funding this out of pocket for the short term. We wanna give patrons a grace period to stay in the Patreon club while they evaluate whether they still want to be pledged based on the new episodes. We'll give you a heads up before we resume billing, we're thinking like, a month or two tops.) Please ask any and all questions you have! See ya soon with a cool MP3 file.

  WE ARE NOT BACK!!!!! 24.11.2025 28min

  Straight to the point - you're getting TWO more hiatus episodes after this - one full-length about the Coke ad, and one shorter to wrap us up before our return (topic TBD) SAM'S NICHE OR HARD-TO-SELL RECOMMENDATIONS: - Therapy Dogs [Trailer] - The HTML Review [Link] and then some more broadly-appealing recs: - Starring Jerry As Himself [Trailer] (recommending something I haven't even fully watched, very cool move) - The Kid Detective [Trailer] (in retrospect, this one got more of the recognition it deserved! Honestly worth ignoring the trailer and going into blind.) Julian's niche or hard-to-sell recommendations: - Desecrators https://store.steampowered.com/app/1311570/Desecrators/ - Vividlope https://store.steampowered.com/app/2078510/VIVIDLOPE/ P.S. It looks like they dropped the entire wide-release version of Therapy Dogs to watch on YouTube this morning?? So you can watch the whole thing for free? I have no idea how it wouldn't get age restricted, but here's the full movie. If you're not accustomed to this kinda filmmaking, you might wanna check the trailer first to get a vibe check. subscribe, find us on spogify and apple podcast, and patreon https://finalv3.zip AUDIO EDITING: Billy: https://twitter.com/SirMeowMusic His awesome podcasts: ⁠  @PleaseStopTalkingPodcast  Sam's stuff:  @SampersonMakes  https://twitter.com/SamNChiet Julian's stuff: ⁠ @InstantNoodleVEVO  https://linktr.ee/NoodleVEVO Learn more about your ad choices.
