The Rec Center

It's the Little Things

We dive right in with investment advice about what to do with your Rami Malek stock, followed by a disagreement about whether you should invest 127 minutes of your time into The Little Things on HBO Max (@ :56). Jack then breaks the rules once again to recommend you pay for a movie — Promising Young Woman — but promises it’s worth it (@ 11:50). Other shows and movies discussed: Lupin - Netflix (@ 16:08), The Dig - Netflix (@ 22:41), and Lovesick aka Scrotal Recall - Netflix (@ 26:34).

Across the Pond

When it comes to TV - the Brits often do it better, and we're not afraid to admit that. This week's jolly good shows and movies include Flack - Amazon Prime (@ 2:20), The Murders at White House Farm - HBO Max (@ 6:52), The Sister - Hulu (@ 10:31), The White Tiger - Netflix (@ 13:55), and The New York Times Presents - Hulu (@ 21:21). Finally, Jack gets weird and ends with a podcast recommendation, Dead Eyes (@ 26:34).

Everyone is Doing Great

We're back a day late and a dollar short to talk about the second and final episode of Tiger on HBO Max (@ 0:48). Some non-recommendations this week include Outside the Wire - Netflix (@ 11:35) and Night Stalker - Netflix (@ 15:43). Other hot and cold recs discussed include: One Night in Miami - Amazon Prime (@ 24:50), Locked Down - HBO Max (@ 29:00), Miracle Workers - HBO Max (@ 33:37), and Everyone is Doing Great - Hulu (@ 37:20).
