  • Every Dad Is A Murderer - Trap: Media Club Plus S02E13
    Mar 24 2026

    Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. This episode we watched Trap, and next time we'll be back with a sequel to our season 1 screenshot stream for out next season: The Sopranos

    Three of the five people on this show were really suprised by what Trap ended up being, which is funny because one of those three had already seen it!

    Serial murderer Cooper Abbott aka The Butcher takes his young daughter to the event of a lifetime: perfect seats for pop phenom Lady Raven's stadium tour. Little does he know the concert has been turned intro a trap for him, set by the FBI. He uses his charm and some looney tunes logic to try to avoid being caught, while still trying to show his kid a good time.

    Featuring Keith Carberry (@KeithJCarberry), Sylvi Bullet (@SYLVIBULLET), Ali Acampora (@Ali-online), Arthur Martinez-Tebbel (@amtebbel), and Janine Hawkins (@Bleatingheart)

  • The Back of Rupert Grint's Head - Knock at the Cabin: Media Club Plus S02E12
    Mar 6 2026

    Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. We're almost finished with M Night Shyamalan!

    This episode we watched Knock at the Cabin, and next time we'll be back with the most recent M Night movie Trap

    We've got a pretty good one! M Night is able to take a short and fairly well edited script and some excellent performances and turn out a fun if thin and messy take on a home invasion thriller (slop lord continues his work?)

    Couple Eric and Andrew are vacationing in the Pennsylvanian woods with their adopted daughter Wen when four weapon-weilding strangers (lead by human giant/elementary school teacher Leonard) force their way into the cabin and tie everyone up. These four have been having apocalyptic visions, and their goal is to get one member of the young family to sacrifice themself, and be killed by the other two, to prevent the end of the world. One by one the intruders kill themselves to herald a new disaster while the couple while Andrew and Eric figure out if that sacrifice is possible or even desired.

  • You'll Never Guess What This Beach Does - Old: Media Club Plus S02E11
    Feb 11 2026

    ANNOUNCEMENT: On Sunday the 15th and Monday the 16th, Friends at the Table going to be hosting ICEBREAKER, a two day fundraising marathon on Twitch to raise money for the Women's Foundation of Minnesota's Immigrant Rapid Response Fund! Read more here!

    Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. This season we're watching a selection of M Night Shyamalan movies.

    This episode we watched Old, and next time we'll be back with our penultimate episode: Knock at the Cabin.

    You may have heard that Old is about the beach that makes you old. Well, it really is about that! You get to the beach, start getting old, and you don't stop until you die. Many people in live go through getting older, but few as fast as the folks they put on the beach, and all the normal stuff that happens when you get older happens there, and some abnormal stuff too.

    Featuring Keith Carberry (@KeithJCarberry), Sylvi Bullet (@SYLVIBULLET), Ali Acampora (@Ali-online), Arthur Martinez-Tebbel (@amtebbel) and Andrew Lee Swan (@Swandre3000)

    I sort of wish we talked more about the camera and composition in this movie because it was particularly strong! Definitely check out the screenshots for this one!
