Parental Guidance Podcast

Netflix is throwing out another monster show.  Well, monster hunter show.  Does it stick or fall to the floor?  You know what to do to find out our thoughts. Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

Did you know that politics and cake smoothies go hand-in-hand?  Well, they don't really.  I just don't have a way to connect the two in this description.  But both are discussed to some degree in this episode. Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

If you enjoyed movies like Airplane or Naked Gun or Scary Movie, then you enjoy spoofs.  That's what this is.  A spoof that gets really good ratings from us.  We break it down with relatively good control over our laughter.

Netflix has jumped into world of nature shows with some pretty cool tech.  The big question is whether they can measure up to the gold standard of nature shows:  BBC & Sir David Attenborough.  That's a massive ask for Netflix.  We let you know if it's worth the time for you and your kids to sit down and watch the latest look into the always fascinating world of critters.

Cruises.  To mutiny and take control or not?  That is the question.  So we discuss it.  It's also why there was a week with no episodes.   Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

Night Shift Edition:  If you enjoy documentaries, we let you know if this latest offering from Netflix is worth the time.   Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

A Netflix show attempts to connect with kids that may have anxiety.  It's an admirable endeavor.  We'll let you know if it works. Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

Recording the day after the shocking death of Kobe Bryant, we spent some time discussing it all.  And some other stuff. Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

Night Shift Edition:  You know, the shows and movies for the grownups.  And those without kids that just enjoy reviews.  This is an Amazon Prime original series that we had been hearing about for a bit so decided to see if it would be worth getting into.  Jason loves him the sci-fi so this was an easy choice when he bullied Jeremy into watching it. ;) Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

Netflix & Dreamworks are at it again!  (Do they let their people sleep??)  Most of the time, Dreamworks hits it well.  Is this another hit or a rare bomb?  I mean, obviously we give our thoughts. Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

We don't usually do sports talk, as that's not what this podcast is ultimately about.  But, since it's Between Episodes, we feel a bit more freedom to chat up other stuff.  Hope you enjoy!  (And for those who hate sports talk...sorry and we'll see Wednesday.)

Night Shift Edition!  Netflix has a show whose trailer has one wondering if the Jesus-looking character is really a messiah or just a con man.  Jeremy and Jason do agree about one thing with the show but not much else.  Does Netflix have a hit on it's hands or is it a bust?  *shrug emoji*  Opinions differ. Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

With such a short supply of Fast & Furious material out there, Netflix and Dreamworks have dipped their toe into the waters of fast cars and crazy heists.  But is it really geared for kids or adults?  Hmmm...we give our thoughts and share a rather enjoyable synopsis from a "helpful" IMDb review.  It's good stuff.   Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

This week we talk about some really random stuff.  Sweet potatoes get involved.  Jeremy confesses his love for reality TV and Jason judges him in his mind.  Jason talks about a new podcast he started listening to.  Also, Jason's son Caleb makes a silent cameo this week.  Nothing like a silent cameo for an audio medium!  Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

Friday = Night Shift edition!  Shows or movies for the grownups.  Generally, no kids allowed.  As for The Witcher...definitely NO KIDS ALLOWED!  A somewhat mixed-bag affair, this Netflix series has some good, some bad (Jason has a slight rant) and some confusing (wait...is this taking place now or before or after or...what the crap is going on??)  Mostly, Henry Cavill of Superman fame truly carries this series on his broad shoulders and refuses to let it down.

Comedian John Mulaney has a new Netflix special aimed at kids.  The big question is whether you should allow him to aim this special at your kid or ask him to aim elsewhere.  Short answer:  Point that thing away from my kid!  We break it down a bit more--without spoilers--in today's podcast.

The holidays are over and we're back to recording!  So, what did we watch and listen to over the past couple of weeks?  From The Witcher on Netflix, to Hulu's Catch-22, to books on tape and Jason's band-of-the-decade choice Chvrches, there was lots going on.  Also, some small independent film called The Rise of Skywalker came out.  Busy, busy! Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

Jason has been hitting YouTube to watch a bunch of highlight videos of soccer player Lionel Messi.  Jeremy has been watching The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel on Amazon Prime.  It's really a win-win.  Also, we start off with a bit more on what should be done with Michael Bay and his directorial efforts after watching 6 Underground.  No ratings on this show because it's Between Episodes.  We just talk about whatever here.  But you can always rate us.  We'd love your feedback!  Find us at any of the places below: Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com

It's a Michael Bay film with Ryan Reynolds!  And it is everything you'd expect a Michael Bay film to be.  In other words, if you're in the mood for rich character development, then run away.  But if you're in the mood for over-the-top action sequences that are lots of fun, then saddle up!  Basically, it's a very mixed bag if you don't know what to expect going in.  We help with that.  Overall ratings within the first 5 minutes!

Noelle, a Disney+ original for the holiday season!  Turns out to be a surprisingly fun and at-times-touching little Christmas story.  Worth a watch, especially if you're a fan of Anna Kendrick.  She is the best thing about the movie, which is good since she's the main character.  Our overall ratings within the first 5 minutes, as is our new custom. ;) Twitter:  @The_PGPod Instagram: @parentalguidancepodcast Email: pgpconnection@gmail.com
