While our world seems to be falling apart around us, two old friends decided to start a movie podcast. What’s a better way to escape from reality than to spend some time together discussing movies… but which ones?
One day in September 2025, Fish said to Squid, “you know what would be a fun podcast?” and shortly thereafter, a name was decided on, the domain name was purchased, and the planning began!
The ideas kept flowing. The movie list kept growing. And eventually, after compiling a list of over 1,300 movies, we figured out a fun and interesting way to choose a random movie: letting the dice decide!
We roll, watch, and then discuss, letting dice rolls drive that discussion too.

Get all the details…

We’ve put together a list of over 1,300 movies (plus alternates) that we select from when we roll our dice for a random title to watch. See our movie list details here.

How Does it Work?
For details on the logistics of how we choose movies, what we focus on, and how we structure our discussions, read about how we roll.
