Show Notes

Podcast Review: Tangentially Alien If you’re in the market for a podcast that promises to review “Alien v. Predator: Requiem” but delivers a whirlwind tour of unrelated yet hilarious topics, look no further. T

he hosts kick off with their thoughts on “Alien v. Predator: Requiem,” but quickly detour into an elaborate theory connecting the Alien franchise to the Fast and Furious movies. Imagine Ellen Ripley teaming up with Dom Toretto to drift through space, outrunning Xenomorphs in rocket-powered muscle cars.

Ridiculous? Absolutely. Entertaining? Without a doubt.

Next, they embark on a passionate rant about why directors insist on shooting movies so dark that you need night-vision goggles just to follow the plot. According to them, there’s a secret cabal of filmmakers who believe true cinema should look like it’s being viewed through a pair of Ray-Bans at midnight. They even suggest that movie theaters start handing out flashlights and magnifying glasses along with the popcorn.

Just when you think it couldn’t get any more off-track, they pivot to a spirited discussion about how John Ortiz—yes, that John Ortiz—could single-handedly save Universal’s movie library. Their argument? His sheer charisma and versatility could breathe new life into any franchise, from resurrecting dud sequels to transforming the most mundane scripts into Oscar-worthy performances. More importantly, he connects to Universal’s most famed properties and Miami Vice.

It’s an argument so outlandish; you can’t help but nod along in amused agreement. In summary, this podcast is a delightful mess of movie commentary, wild tangents, and unfiltered humor.

If you enjoy reviews that meander more than your uncle’s bedtime stories after a few beers, this one’s for you. Just don’t expect to actually learn much about “Alien v. Predator: Requiem.” But hey, who needs coherent reviews when you’ve got theories about Vin Diesel fighting Xenomorphs?

Super Woke or Super Broke – Tangential Giants Podcast

The Giants are back, and this week, Kareem, Ken, and Pat have dragged their long‑suffering friend Tim into the studio for an episode that immediately veers off the rails and never once apologizes for it.First up: Greg Cipes. Yes, that Greg Cipes. The crew dives into the swirling storm of his latest controversy, unpacking the spectacle, the fandom reactions, and the eternal question: why do celebrity statements always feel like they were drafted during a juice cleanse.Then the conversation takes a hard left turn into the Ouroboros of Terminator robots, a philosophical deep dive into what happens when killer machines start time‑looping themselves into existential burnout. Is Skynet okay. Should someone check on it. Does a T‑800 dream of electric therapy bills.And because no episode is complete without roasting a beloved icon, the Giants revisit Superman’s rookie mistakes, the early days when the world’s greatest hero was still figuring out how not to yeet cars into orbit or accidentally demolish small businesses while stopping purse snatchers.If you enjoy pop‑culture chaos, sci‑fi spirals, and four grown adults trying to out‑tangent each other, this episode is your new comfort noise.#tangentialgiants #podcastchaos #GregCipes #popculturedebate #TerminatorLore #SciFiNerds #TimeLoopTalk #SkynetSpirals #SupermanFails #RookieSupes #NerdCulture #geektalkph #comedypodcast #popculturepodcast #KareemKenPatTim
