DYW BONUS Episode! S02E02: Obsession 2026
DYW BONUS Episode! S02E02: Obsession 2026Curry Barker's feature debut Obsession (2026) lands the rarest kind of episode for Dad, You're Wrong: the one where Eric and Josh agree on everything. Both hosts walked in blind. Both walked out with the same call. Both have it as their number one film of the year so far.This is a one million dollar monkey's paw cautionary tale starring Michael Johnston as Bear, a shy music store clerk with a years-long crush, and Indy Navarrette as Nikki, the childhood friend on the receiving end of one very ill-advised wish. Eric and Josh dig into Barker's restraint as a craftsman, the way he holds back just enough to keep the suspense alive when most modern horror is busy shocking or jump-scaring. They make the case for Indy Navarrette's performance as the horror Oscar of the year. They place Bear in the lineage of detestable modern leading men, alongside Companion's Jack Quaid and Holcomb's Adam Scott, and explain why he tops them both. And they trace the influences running through the film, from Sam Raimi to It Follows to Lost Highway.Eric's rating: Watch in Theater. Twice, if you can swing it.Josh's rating: Watch in Theater.This is the kind of episode the hosts have been waiting for. Go see the movie. Then come back and tell them they're wrong.

EPU BONUS EPISODE! DYW S02E01 'Undertone'
Thought we'd share an episode of DYW with those interested! Enjoy! DAD, YOU'RE WRONG - S02E01: "A24, DO YOU HAVE MOMMY ISSUES?"Dad, You're Wrong is back for 2026, and Eric and Josh couldn't have picked a more fitting film to kick things off.Undertone is a film about a paranormal podcaster who probably should have stopped listening after the first audio file. It is ninety-three minutes of exceptional sound design, one remarkable performance, slow camera work that borrows heavily from the right toolboxes, and a script that Eric and Josh land in very different places on.Josh walked out wanting to watch it again that same day. Eric checked his phone three or four times.They dig into the analog versus digital horror debate, the Skinamarink and Iron Lung comparisons, the unreliable narrator theory that might explain everything, the threads that never get tied, and why the sound design is either the whole movie or the problem with the movie depending on who you ask. Josh makes the most coherent case for the ending either of them has heard. Eric almost agrees.VHS Vault: Josh finds a Sundance screener of Darren Aronofsky's Pi (1998) at a thrift store in Pilsen. It connects to this episode more than you might expect.Plus: what is coming next, why trepanning came up, and the question this film kept making Eric ask about A24's recent output.Eric's Rating: VOD Josh's Rating: Theater

Episode 19: Rewatch Revelations - 'The Girl or The World'
EPISODE 19: "Rewatch Revelations Nine"Welcome back to E Pluribus Unum, the podcast where we deep dive into the hive mind. Season one is finished. Rewatch Revelations is finished. And this final episode delivers the theory that might change how you see everything Manousos has been building toward.Eric and Josh close out their second pass at Episode 19, "The World or the Girl" - and the cold open alone opens a can of worms. What does the goat left behind tell us about whether the Joined actually lie? Why does Zosia's terror of Manousos feel like something more than knowing his past? And is the box in Carol's driveway an atom bomb - or an EMP?We break down: Josh's noise-canceling frequency theory backed by a Vince Gilligan interview, malicious empathy as the defining framework for the Joined's behavior, and the color vocabulary working overtime through the honeymoon sequence. Plus: a major announcement about the EPU Companion Book - and what listeners of this show get when it drops.Thank you for riding the whole season with us.New episodes return with Season 2.Produced by Brainstormer Studios.

Episode 18: Rewatch Revelations - 'Charm Offensive'
E PLURIBUS UNUM — EPISODE 18: REWATCH REVELATIONS — "CHARM OFFENSIVE"Welcome back to E Pluribus Unum, the podcast where we deep dive into the hive mind. This week we return to Season 1 for our Rewatch Revelations series, and we are back in Episode 8: "Charm Offensive." On second look, this is the most manipulative episode of the season — and it is working on the audience just as hard as it is working on Carol.The Joined are back in Albuquerque and they have curated every moment of this visit. The cuddle puddle. The plateau hike. The massage. The telescope. The diner with the waitress from Florida. Every scene gives Carol just enough — and not a single one finishes the cake. On rewatch, the architecture of the manipulation is impossible to miss.We break down the color theory running through every sequence, why Zosia's maroon shirt at the door tells you everything about her intentions, and what Bear Jordan's shoe actually means. We do a full deep dive on Carol's novel whiteboard, including a Twelfth Night connection that reframes the entire episode. We get into the governor metaphor and what it reveals about how the Joined actually process the hive mind pipeline. We debate whether the Joined hunger for novelty is the true value of the immune. And Josh lands what we are calling the Rewatch Revelation of the series: the charm offensive is not just Zosia's play against Carol. It is Vince Gilligan's play against all of us.Plus: prime number timestamps, the significance of red croquet balls, the egg omelet scene hitting completely differently on a second watch, and a tease for what is coming in the season finale.Manny is 31 kilometers from the border. That is a prime number. He is almost home.Produced by Brainstormer Studios.

Episode 17: Rewatch Revelations - 'The Gap'
EPISODE 17: "Rewatch Revelations Seven - The Gap"Welcome back to E Pluribus Unum, the podcast where we deep dive into the hive mind. There are gaps between people. Gaps between worlds. And then there is the Darien Gap -- where clothing piles up at the entrance and nobody can tell you why.This is Rewatch Revelations Seven, where we revisit Episode 7 with post-finale eyes. And on second watch, the gaps are everywhere.We break down a cold open that ends mid-sentence -- not by accident -- and why Carol may be the only character in the series who speaks in deliberate incompletion. We examine a Rolls Royce hood ornament called the Spirit of Ecstasy and the significance of a button that hides it. We dig into an English lesson that teaches words nobody ever actually uses, and ask why a curriculum built on gray cats and borrowed coats tells us more about Manos than any monologue could.The color vocabulary is in full force this episode -- and it is doing work. A mustard yellow shirt flanked by two in red at the entrance to the jungle is not wardrobe. A bandana that bleeds from yellow to black to red tracks the arc of the episode in three colors. And a red pencil tracing a map means exactly what you think it means.We also ask the question the internet has been asking: why did the Joined save Manos? The answer may have everything to do with what the immune actually represent to the hive -- and it is not what most people assume.Plus: fireworks branded "Happy." A Rolls Royce disappearing into a golf course montage. Clothing strewn across the jungle floor by people trying to escape. And two characters, on opposite ends of the world, both waving up to the sky.Two Rewatch Revelations episodes remain. Something is coming for those who have stayed with us.New episodes drop weekly. Find us also at Dad You're Wrong, where a millennial son and Gen X dad discuss film, philosophy, and everything in between.Produced by Brainstormer Studios.

Episode 16: Rewatch Revelations - 'HDP'
Episode 16: Rewatch Revelations Six - "HDP"Welcome back to E Pluribus Unum, the podcast where we deep dive into the hive mind. Three letters. That is all it takes to change how you see everything the Joined have built. On second viewing, those three letters are hiding even more than you think.This is Rewatch Revelations Six, where we revisit Episode 6: "HDP" with post-finale eyes. A truck that was parked outside is no longer there. A flashlight bathes everything in blue. And a very elaborate poker game has a lot more to say about what is really happening in this story than a simple card trick.We break down one of the most visually dense single frames in the entire series, and what we found in seven parked cars might just map the trajectory of the whole show. A vintage kitchen timer from Tennessee turns up in Paraguay. A shortwave radio signal sounds like something not quite human. And a street address, once you translate it, tells you more about Carol than Carol ever would.We also ask a question that might sound crazy: is there a space between immune and Joined that nobody is talking about?Plus: a corporate acronym for the unspeakable, a farewell scene that says more in seven cars than most shows say in seven episodes, and the foreshadowing of a betrayal hidden in one very specific word.Keep an eye out for a surprise when we wrap up our Rewatch Revelations series. Something is coming.Link in first comment.#Pluribus #VinceGilligan #RewatchRevelations #EPluribusUnum #PodcastLife #SciFi #HiveMind #WeIsUsProduced by Brainstormer Studios

Episode 15: Rewatch Revelations - 'Got Milk'
EPISODE 15: "Rewatch Revelations Five - 'Got Milk'Pluribus Episode: S01E05 - "Got Milk" (Rewatch) Runtime: ~30 minutesWelcome back to E Pluribus Unum, the podcast where we deep dive into the hive mind. We continue our Rewatch Revelations series with Episode 5: "Got Milk". What once looked like a slow detective story now looks like the most elaborate con job the Joined have ever pulled.Carol follows a trail of milk cartons from dumpsters to dairies to the discovery that shook the season. But on rewatch, the question isn't what she found. It's why they let her find it. Every broken drone, every convenient clue, every breadcrumb, but was it circumstance or choreography?We dig into the Joined's long game and ask the question we've been building toward: has every interaction since Episode 1 been pre-calculated? We explore Josh's insect theory where honeycomb patterns on the hospital curtains, hexagonal drones, and amber-colored HDP dot the landscape, and the biblical parallels hiding in Carol's 40 days of isolation. Plus: the biggest revelation yet. Can the Joined actually lie?We also announce changes to our Discord and new ways to connect with us going forward.This wasn't a boring episode. It was a scavenger hunt designed by the villain.New episodes weekly. Produced by Brainstormer Studios.

Episode 14: Rewatch Revelations - 'Please, Carol'
EPISODE 14: "Rewatch Revelations Four - Please, Carol"Welcome back to E Pluribus Unum, the podcast where we deep dive into the hive mind. Someone said please. Eight billion people, in fact. And the way they said it will haunt you differently the second time around.This is Rewatch Revelations Four, where we revisit Episode 4: "Please, Carol" with post-finale eyes. We finally meet Manos in the flesh, and his cold open is hiding more than you think -- from a fictional dog food brand with real border-crossing origins to storage unit numbers that keep our prime number theory alive.We break down: A Shakespeare reference that reframes Carol's entire relationship with her own writing, a conversion therapy backstory that explains everything about her resistance, and six things Carol said on camera that she will never admit sober. Plus: The insect theory expands in ways we didn't expect, the color vocabulary gets complicated, and we ask whether the joined are crying because they're sad -- or because they're performing.Larry might deserve an Emmy. Carol might deserve a hug. And the title earns every syllable of its weight.New episodes drop weekly during hiatus.Produced by Brainstormer Studios.
