Last week, we lost one of the titans of Hollywood. He was the perfect foil for the ultimate underdog, an action star, delivered dramatic gravitas, and had comedic timing to boot. He was an acting five tool player - with a million dollar smile. In this episode, we go back over some highlights from his career and pay tribute in our own idiotic way.

It's been damn near five years since news first broke that Sam Esmail would be rebooting Battlestar Galactica as the centerpiece of the new Peacock streaming service. All these years later, and the only thing Sammy has managed to do is go through two showrunners and say they have a vague outline. We find this unacceptable. So we're stepping in to give our thoughts on how we'd reboot BSG (even though we really don't want to) and see if we can't make some sort of coherent plan out of the scraps that have been given thus far (spoiler: not a whole lot). Also, we have one last intrusion of The Man They Call Tim's fake football team, an interesting story about Geddy Lee and Robert Plant, and wondering where Vision got to in the MCU in this episode's The Week In Geek!   LINKS OF INTEREST: - Geddy Lee shares a nice story about Robert Plant - Hey MCU – Where’s White Vision at? - Everything We Know About The ‘Battlestar Galactica’ Reboot (themarysue.com) - 1978-79 Battlestar Galactica (imdb.com) - 2003 Battlestar Galactica miniseries (imdb.com) - 2004-09 Battlestar Galactica (imdb.com)   ...AND ANOTHER THING: The Man They Call Tim recommends you read My Effin Life by Geddy Lee Uncle Todd advises you to watch Monarch: Legacy of Monsters on Apple TV   FOLLOW US ON THE SOCIAL MEDIAS: Facebook - http://facebook.com/freerangeidiocy Instagram - http://instagram.com/freerangeidiocy YouTube - http://youtube.com/@freerangeidiocy

With all the hubbub surrounding the return of CM Punk to WWE, we decided to use it as a good excuse to watch one of The Man They Call Tim's favorite all-time wrestling matches - CM Punk versus John Cena from Money in the Bank 2011. Don't worry, we know the connection is tenuous... sort of like our grip on reality.

There was a whole lotta hoopla and waiting for Loki season 2. Did it live up to the hype? Did the god of mischief manage to save all of time and space? Did Sylvie keep the 1980's mullet for the entire season? And most importantly... which idiot prevailed in our preseason predictions?!

The world of professional rasslin' has been one helluva ride over the last year, especially if you've been following the behind-the-curtain stuff over at WWE. Now that the ink has dried on the merger of WWE with UFC to form TKO (because ya can't have too many three letter abbreviations can ya?), it appears that the rollercoaster of "Who's In Charge Around Here?!" is finally over with Triple H officially having complete creative control over WWE without the interference of Vince McMahon. What does it all mean? We break it down. Also, we get yet another update on The Man They Call Tim's fake football team, some thoughts on Baylan Skoll from Ahsoka, a theory of how Thrawn got his night troopers, and remembering the acting icon that is Burt Young in this episode's Week In Geek!   LINKS OF INTEREST: - Is Baylan Skoll more important to Ahsoka Season 2 than Thrawn? - Theory explains how Thrawn’s Resurrected Night Troopers lines up with Canon - Yo Paulie! - RIP Burt Young, 83 - SmackDown season premier starring Triple-H’s sh*t-eating grin - Here's Triple H at Lemmy's memorial service   ...AND ANOTHER THING: The Man They Call Tim recommends watching the revival of Frasier over on Paramount+ Uncle Todd advises you to check out the Beckham limited series documentary on Netflix   FOLLOW US ON THE SOCIAL MEDIAS: Facebook - http://facebook.com/freerangeidiocy Instagram - http://instagram.com/freerangeidiocy YouTube - http://youtube.com/@freerangeidiocy

We tally up the results from our Ahsoka edition of The Real & The Jabroni to find out who was wrong and who was right... or, in this case, who was wrong and who was wrongest. Either way, there's a bottle of moderately priced bourbon on the line, so it's time to get out the abacus and see who made it over the finish line first!

We don't usually center an entire episode around one slice of a streaming series, but when you've read six books waiting for a character's live action debut, it's easy to get a little excited. We look at the sixth episode of Ahsoka and breakdown the first appearance of Grand Admiral Thrawn along with that other guy who hitched a ride with the space whales. Also, we get an update on The Man They Call Tim's fake football team, whether Marvel has their Kang replacement warming up in the bullpen, rumors of a(nother) Westworld movie, and a little Battlestar Galactica musings in this episode's Week In Geek!   LINKS OF INTEREST: - MCU May Have Their Replacement for Kang - Westworld may be rebooted as a feature film… - BSG - What does that final line mean?   ...AND ANOTHER THING: The Man They Call Tim recommends reading Thrawn: The Ascendancy Trilogy by Timothy Zahn Uncle Todd advises you to read The Cold Dish by Craig Johnson   FOLLOW US ON THE SOCIAL MEDIAS: Facebook - http://facebook.com/freerangeidiocy Instagram - http://instagram.com/freerangeidiocy YouTube - http://youtube.com/@freerangeidiocy

Loki season two will be here before you know it, so your humble idiotic servants have delved into all the rumors and theories swirling about the interwebs in order to give you - da people - our official, lead-pipe-cinch verdict on what will definitely be happening (The Real) and what won't (The Jabroni). Also, we drop some hot takes on Ahsoka episodes 4-5 (we hadn't seen episode 6 when this was recorded but woooh-baby will we have thoughts next week), an update on The Man They Call Tim's fake football team, and The Great One returns to his own show.   LINKS OF INTEREST: - The Rock returns to Smackdown! on September 15th - Rumors & theories from Game Radar  - Rumors & theories from Tech Advisor - Rumors & theories from Screen Rant - Rumors & theories from Movie Web - Rumors & theories from Medium   ...AND ANOTHER THING: The Man They Call Tim recommends watching Star Wars Rebels on Disney Plus Uncle Todd advises you to check out this sick cover of Joni Mitchell’s “Big Yellow Taxi” by Scary Pockets & Tal Wilkenfeld   FOLLOW US ON THE SOCIAL MEDIAS: Facebook - http://facebook.com/freerangeidiocy Instagram - http://instagram.com/freerangeidiocy YouTube - http://youtube.com/@freerangeidiocy

One of the rarest tricks to pull in professional wrestling is the double turn - somehow making the good guy into the bad guy and the bad guy into the good guy. That's tough enough, but doing it in a single match? The most successful execution of this that we can think about is "Stone Cold" Steve Austin versus Bret "The Hitman" Hart from Wrestlemania 13... and we're gonna watch it all and drop some commentary as well!
