The August Patreon episode was recorded in a Bowmanville backyard with spoon mics, train noise, a loon, and Daddy Doyle possibly hearing way too much.

Jason and Rachel talk road trip chaos, Buc-ee’s, Texas Roadhouse, haunted car diagnostics, stale farts, Lawrence’s thousand-mile t-shirt journey, nostalgic garbage-beer smells, certified Santa sightings, Canadian snack pairings, and Rachel’s theory that Amazon trucks look obscene.

Also: Ghost Town as a Buc-ee’s poop anthem, spoon-mic etiquette, Rachel’s swearing intervention, and FMK movie hypotheticals.

Full Patreon chaos is up now.

SPOILER ALERT!

Rhaenyra wanted to be anointed queen, so naturally she killed the High Sept and may have started a full religious war. Great plan. No notes.

In our spoiler-filled recap of House of the Dragon Season 3 Episode 8, the season finale, we break down Rhaenyra’s mad-queen spiral, Daemon calming her down with High Valyrian prophecy therapy, Baela finally calling her out, Alyn stepping up, and the disastrous decision to execute the one guy who could actually crown her.

We also talk Helaena’s tragic final scenes, the white horse vision, the butterfly imagery, Rhaenyra force-feeding her sister, Mysaria getting fired and escaping, Aegon rising with Sunfire, Ormond’s brutal end, Roddy the Ruin going out in a blaze of glory, and Ulf being possibly the worst dragon rider in Westeros.

Plus: Rachel’s top characters of the season, Ormond Hall of Fame talk, Daeron getting knighted, Gwayne serving Daeron the Daring, Corlys’ loyal Velaryon badasses, Rhaenyra’s terrible public prophecy speech, Team Green chaos, Team Black incompetence, and the pain of waiting two years for more dragons.

SPOILER ALERT

Is Spider-Man: Brand New Day the best movie of the year? Jason is not joking. Mostly.

This week on Thumb War, Jason, Rachel, and special guest Jesh break down Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Tom Holland’s return as Peter Parker, the loneliness after the memory wipe, the Punisher/Spider-Man buddy-comedy energy, Jean Grey’s shocking arrival, Bruce Banner, MJ and Ned, organic webbing, second puberty, mutant power dampeners, and whether Marvel is officially back.

Plus: Tom Holland’s wild eyebrow, bodega cleaner placement, Marisa Tomei blame, Black Widow in a Russian bath, Spider-Man’s “no friends” era, Punisher chili, Hulk chaos, MJ’s muscle-memory handshake, Secret Wars theories, Miles Morales speculation, and Jason deciding this movie hit his 13-year-old comic-book brain harder than almost anything else this year.

Subscribe to Thumb War for movie reviews, TV breakdowns, comic-book chaos, and grown adults trying to explain why Spider-Man makes them emotional.

It’s the July Patreon episode of Thumb War, and Jason and Rachel are laying down their thumbs for movie recommendations, Nolan rankings, celebrity crushes, and general nonsense.

This month, we talk The Invite, Motor City, Sheep Detectives, Hazel’s love of Babe, Rachel and Jason’s top Christopher Nolan movies, Paul Reubens/Pee-Wee nostalgia, 90s hot-guy rankings, and the Dave Matthews Band poop-boat disaster.

Come for the movie talk. Stay for “sit bat,” wrong shoe sounds, talking sheep, and deeply unnecessary filth.

Bonus chaos, extra movie talk, and questionable life advice — now on Patreon.
