Trevor Catalano & TJ Patrick

Two millenials with way too much time on their hands. Hosts TJ Patrick and Trevor Catalano take a dive into their binge watching and deep nerd musings. Also shouting at each other over Zoom is better than shouting into the void. From major franchises to coveted cult classics, from artsy cinema to binge-able TV shows, here at The Red Team Podcast, we"re after fun and surprisingly insightful takes on your favorites, but maybe also introducing you to something new. Join us weekly, as we explore the

We're back! Welcome to our coverage for Asian America and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, because a) it's more than well earned, and b) fuck the people who inflict pain in this world. We're kicking this month off ~kind of~ with our auteur series, featuring our first ever analysis of an Academy Award winning Best Picture film in our pod history: Bong Joon-ho's Parasite. Oh, and also Snowpiercer. Which was definitely not in the running for any awards but hey, Cap gets to use an axe, so technically

Hi everyone, thank you so much for listening the past few months! We're pooped, so we're going to be taking the month of April off to recuperate and give TJ a break from editing massive tournaments that he brought upon himself. We're excited for you all to see what we have planned for the rest of the year, namely an AAPI centered month of May featuring major contributions from Korean, Japanese, and Chinese filmmakers. Can't wait to get back at it, but we really need to sleep! Follow us on IG and

It's a three-peat, and we're not sure if that's a good thing! After a rollicking good time this month, from arguing about Pixar to arguing about Disney songs, we're back to our old format with yet ANOTHER Reject or Renew of The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Join us as we get in one solid ode to women's history month before this Mega March ends. As the title suggests, these women (and really all women) deserve better.

The full Red Team are back to finish out the finalists in each of our song categories. Let no tear go unshed, no heart go unbroken, as we declare a champion in each category, and by the end of this episode, one song will stand tall! There must be a winner! We WILL have a Champion!

The marathon of March continues! Trevor has finally watched all the Cars movies (in his words it's “payback for suggesting Narnia”) so we can now say we've given a strong rewatch to the entire* Pixar canon. Tensions grow, minds are changed (sometimes), rankings have moved, and we get to dig even deeper into the why's and how's of the legendary animation studio. How did your fave square up? No matter what movie it is, between these two, you’ll likely be upset. Follow us on IG and Twitter @redteampod

TJ and Trevor give their preliminarytakes on every Pixar movie made beforenext week's episode, wherewe re-rank after watching every single one again.

You know how some people think everything would have been better if we hadn’t killed Harambe? That's how we feel about [spoiler]. In a special Reject or Renew to close out Black History Month, we talk about the new show on the block, Lovecraft Country. We're joined this week by fellow Journalists member and man about town Khari Walser to discuss the television show equivalent of waiting so long for your entree that you eat way too much of the appetizer, so that by the time the server brings out your

Despite certain... *Things* happening, or more specifically NOT happening this month, we assure you it is, in fact, Black History Month! Much like we did in November with Edgar Wright, we thought it only natural to jump on the opportunity to analyze and discuss a giant in black cinema, Spike Lee.We're looking at three major career films: '89s Do The Right Thing, '92s Malcolm X, and '18s BlacKkKlansman.

This week in celebration (or despair?) of Valentine's Day, the boys have got three movies all about batting eyelashes and bedroom eyes. Join us as we examine the psyche of 2000s masculinity, the Kevin James effect, the ethics of gambling a marriage on a game of 1 on 1, and why Charlize Theron can literally carry any movie.

Welcome back to a galaxy far far away, where everything is about baby yoda and TJ's opinion doesn't matter (he's slowly going insane). That's right, it's the Star Wars equivalent of the McRib: not really complicated, only around at certain times, and will never be considered a full square meal, but damn if we don't adore it anyway. Molly Burdick of @podandprejudice and @journaliststheatre returns to the pod to discuss one of her favorite titles, and we're genuinely sorry for the anxiety TJ gets when

If you listen to this episode at just the right time, in just the right room of your house, you'll be transported to heav--I mean Narnia. On our second foray into Dissin' Franchise, the segment where we analyze dead or dying franchises, Trevor poses the question: "why isn't Narnia a bigger thing?" TJ rightfully doesn't think this really matters. Thus the comedy. Join us as we examine church camp fantasy tropes, real and Imagined dragons, how Susan isn't allowed to do anything, and just... so many

The hills are alive, with the sound of ~conflict~! But not the one you're thinking of, because screw giving those assholes any more attention. We're talking about the natural animosity garnered from talking about film adaptations of stage musicals! This week we're joined by TJ's dear friend Emily Gulbrandsen, as we search in vain for a truly capable film to fill the void of the live stage (WEAR A MASK).

We promise it's not plagiarism! We're hesitant to ring in the new year because going forward in time is scary, so we thought, hey, “Why not go back?” So welcome back to the 1980s, where everything's made up and the points don't matter. Seriously. Because whatever you thought about these "perfect" movies, nostalgia is a hell of a hallucinogen, and it is blurring your criticism.

We're just going to say it outright: Die Hard is NOT a Christmas movie. Join us this week as we condemn those who build entire personalities around male power fantasies and tear into one of the most divisive “holiday” films in history. Once we cool down from the terrible stereotypes and shoddy set design, we'll be doing our first revisit on Reject or Renew, with The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air: discussing how the show has grown, how Geoffrey and Ashley come in clutch, and how iconic Janet Hubert’s Aunt
