Michael and Rob watch the latest (and last?) Mission: Impossible movie starring the whole gang from the last movie plus Angela Bassett, Tramell Tillman, Hannah Waddingham, Katy O'Brian, and Nick Offerman. Spoilers abound of course, but considering that the movie is generally getting positive reviews, it seems right to provide an additional warning that neither of us loved the film. We loved some things about it and talked freely about those, but there are also many, many things that frustrated us, and we talked freely about those as well.

Our James Bond project is complete, now let our Sherlock Holmes project begin. Rob and Michael are joined by Pax and Jacob Bean-Watson in order to explore the Great Detective as portrayed on Film and TV. We're not taking a methodical approach, but just taking turns picking whatever adaptation strikes our fancies. Rob is up first and chose the 1976 TV movie, Sherlock Holmes in New York starring Roger Moore as Holmes, Patrick Macnee as Watson, John Huston as Moriarty, and Charlotte Rampling as Irene Adler.

Pax, Rob, and Michael continue this month's lounge talking about Cobra Kai, A Stitch in Time by Andrew J Robinson, Golden Age Wonder Woman, All Our Wrong Todays by Elan Mastai, pop culture Mount Rushmores, and the Agatha Christie mini-series Towards Zero.

Pax, Rob, and Michael talk about autograph collecting, Thunderbolts*, podcast wives, the podcast Heist with Michael Caine, the Goldie Vance graphic novels by Hope Larson and Brittney Williams, and more Sherlock Holmes. And Michael's son David stops by to talk about the One Piece manga and other things.

To celebrate the conclusion of our massive James Bond project, our panelists Michael, Rob, and Karen welcome fellow Bond fans Becky Tyler, Jacob Bean-Watson, and Jody Collins for a fun game, reviewing our favorite elements of the series. We draft our favorite Bond actors, villains, gadgets, and features from a dozen other categories to create our own inter-era Bond mash-up films. We laughed, we gasped, and we hurt each other's feelings in this super fun episode about everyone's favorite super spy.

Michael, Rob, and Pax get back in the cars to talk about the return of the Fast and Furious family as they try to rescue an amnesic Letty from the machinations of supervillain Owen Shaw (Luke Evans).

Michael, Rob, and Karen finish (for now) their James Bond movie project with the final Daniel Craig and the final Eon Productions entry in the series. It's No Time to Die, also starring Léa Seydoux, Rami Malek, Lashana Lynch, Jeffrey Wright, Ana de Armas, and the usual cast of allies.

Michael and Jess talk about the comics Fangs by Sarah Andersen and Rachel Rising: The Shadow of Death by Terry Moore.
