  • Ep. 75: Return of the King, Long Goodbyes & the End of an Era
    May 21 2026

    One podcast season to rule them all.


    This week, Jeff and Josue close out Season 4 — our Year of Trilogies — by skipping straight to the end of one of our favorite trilogies ever: The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003).

    It’s our season finale, our milestone 75th episode, and the end of WDYT?! in its current format… so naturally, we picked the movie famous for having about eight endings.


    We talk Middle-earth scale, Gandalf’s skin routine, Denethor’s tomato crimes, Sam and Frodo’s friendship, and whether Return of the King still feels as epic as it did the first time.


    Plus: we open with One Quiz to Rule Them All — a Tolkien trivia game full of ancient beings, confusing family trees, and Middle-earth senior discounts.


    Special thanks to Middle Earth Art Store for letting us use a few questions from one of their Tolkien trivia quizzes! Play their full quiz at Instagram.com/middleearthartstore.

  • Ep. 74.5: Toy Story 3 [AFTER THE CREDITS]
    May 6 2026

    You’ve reached After the Credits — where we dig into the extra trivia, weird details, and leftover thoughts from Toy Story 3.


    Jeff & Josue stick around for one last trip to Sunnyside with behind-the-scenes facts, animation breakthroughs, and a few classic rabbit trails that somehow take us from Pixar… to Avatar… to Titanic (yes, really).

    From Tom Hanks and Tim Allen recording together to boost Woody & Buzz’s chemistry, to early Lotso concepts hidden in Toy Story, to the surprisingly difficult challenge of animating… trash bags — there’s a lot more going on in this movie than you might expect.

    Plus:

    • A few “wait… how does THAT work?” Toy Story logic debates
    • Creepy Toy Story moments we didn’t talk about enough 👀
    • Pixar pulling inspiration from prison movies for Sunnyside
    • And a real-time debate about what we should watch for our final episode of the season

    It’s a relaxed, slightly nerdy cooldown for anyone who isn’t quite ready to leave Andy’s room just yet.

  • Ep. 74: Toy Story 3 — Spanish Buzz, Prison Breaks & Emotional Damage
    Apr 30 2026

    Pixar did it again.


    They lured us in with new toys, fresh adventure, and… Spanish Buzz? Then they pulled the rug out and gave us moments of real reflection about growing up and letting go.

    This week, Jeff and Josue revisit Toy Story 3 (2010)—the movie that sends Andy to college, drops the toys into Sunnyside Daycare, and somehow turns into a prison break story with one of Pixar’s most emotional endings.

    Is this the end… or just the beginning?

    We talk Lotso’s arc, Pixar’s evolution, that near-death moment, and whether this was the ending the franchise should have stopped on—especially with Toy Story 4 and 5 now in the mix.

  • Ep. 73.5: Back to the Future III [AFTER THE CREDITS]
    Apr 23 2026

    You’ve reached After the Credits — where we dig into the extra trivia, weird details, and leftover thoughts from Back to the Future Part III.


    Jeff & Josue stick around for one last ride through the Wild West with behind-the-scenes facts, casting “what ifs,” and a few hilarious rabbit trails that didn’t make the main episode. From wild on-set stories and surprise almost-cameos to stunt work, ZZ Top earworms, historical goofs, and the classic “how did Doc even build THAT?” debate, there’s plenty here for anyone still hanging out in 1885.


    Plus, a quick update at the end of the episode about what’s coming next for the show.

    It’s a relaxed, slightly nerdy cooldown for anyone who isn’t quite ready to leave the Old West just yet.

    🎬 Companion to Ep. 72 — Back to the Future III (1990).

    If you haven’t listened to the full episode yet, we recommend starting there first.

  • Ep. 73: Back to the Future Part III, Cowboy Doc & the Trilogy Finale
    Apr 16 2026

    We’re heading back… to 1885.


    This week, Jeff & Josue wrap up the trilogy with Back to the Future Part III (1990)—the Wild West finale that swaps hoverboards for horses and turns Doc Brown into a romantic leading man. (and wraps up one of the most iconic trilogies of all time.)


    As kids, this one felt like the “extra” sequel.

    As adults? It might be the most complete ending of the trilogy.


    We talk about the Western setting, Doc’s unexpected love story, the callbacks to the original, and whether this movie sticks the landing… or just rides off on nostalgia.

    Plus: a “Third Time’s the Charm” limerick game, time travel logic (again), and a train finale that makes for a shaky landing.


    👦 Special thanks to Clark Abyad for this week’s kid intro.

  • Ep. 72.5: You’ve Got Mail [AFTER THE CREDITS]
    Apr 9 2026

    Still here? Let’s log back on for After the Credits.


    Did Joe Fox accidentally misidentify a Jane Austen novel? Why don’t some of the email voiceovers match what’s on screen? Jeff & Josue stick around for a few leftover thoughts, early internet nostalgia, and a few behind-the-scenes details you probably never noticed.

    It’s a relaxed, slightly tech-nerdy cooldown for anyone who isn’t quite ready to log off just yet.


    🎬 Companion to Ep. 72 — You’ve Got Mail (1998).

    If you haven’t listened to the full episode yet, we recommend starting there first.

    🎧 Listener Question:

    What’s a small movie detail or “goof” you’ve noticed that you can’t unsee?

  • Ep. 72: You’ve Got Mail — Back When Email Was Romantic
    Apr 2 2026

    We’re logging on, hearing the dial-up tone… and catching feelings.


    This week, Jeff & Josue revisit You’ve Got Mail (1998)—the ultimate late-90s rom-com that turned email into romance and bookstores into battlegrounds.


    As kids, this movie felt cozy, charming, and maybe a little slow.

    As adults? It hits slightly differently.


    We talk about the nostalgia of early internet culture (AOL, chat rooms, and “You’ve Got Mail”), the rise of big-box stores vs. small businesses, and whether Joe Fox is actually likable… or just charming enough to get away with everything. 😅


    Was all of this necessary… or just a really long misunderstanding?


    🎙 This Week on WDYT?!:

    00:00 Notifications, AOL & Peak 90s Internet

    06:22 You’ve Got Movies 🎬 (Opening Game)

    20:48 Quick Facts & First Impressions

    Is Joe Fox actually a good guy… or just a really likable villain?

    And could this movie even exist today without the mystery of early internet culture?

  • Ep. 71.5: Toy Story 2 [AFTER THE CREDITS]
    Mar 26 2026

    You’ve reached After the Credits — where we unpack the extra trivia, weird details, and leftover thoughts from Toy Story 2 (1999).


    Jeff & Josue stick around for extra thoughts, Pixar trivia, and the behind-the-scenes stories from Toy Story 2 (1999) that didn’t make the main episode.


    Is Toy Story 2 actually better than the original—or is that just nostalgia talking? Why were critics comparing it to The Empire Strikes Back? And how did Pixar almost lose 90% of the entire movie because of a single line of code?

    Plus:

    Tom Hanks’ real-time reactions to Woody’s Roundup toys, the hidden Pixar Easter eggs inside Al’s Toy Barn, the story behind the toy restorer “Geri,” and the emotional impact of When She Loved Me (yes… it’s still devastating).

    It’s a relaxed, slightly informative cooldown for anyone who isn’t quite ready to leave the toy aisle yet.


    🎬 Companion to Ep. 71 — Toy Story 2 (1999).

    If you haven’t listened to the full episode yet, we recommend starting there first.


    🎧 Listener Question:

    Do you think Toy Story 2 is better than the original—or does the first one still hold the crown?
