Critics Alyssa Rosenberg (ThinkProgress) and Asawin "Swin" Suebsaeng (Mother Jones) host a weekly chat on the latest movies, TV shows, and cultural nonsense. (Politics also usually finds it way into the conversation.)

Alyssa is equally devoted to the Star Wars expanded universe and Barbara Stanwyck, to Better Off Ted and Deadwood.

Swin is a lover of childish dark humor, Yuengling, and movies with high body counts.

We'll be regularly featuring guests on this program, and taking listeners' questions.

Audio quality...

...is pretty inconsistent. Sounds like two people trying to squeeze out a 'cast during their lunch breaks over a conference phone line. I expected something with a lot better quality coming from both Think Progress and Mother Jones.
