After nearly 5 years, we've got a new written review on the website! And what finer way to mark our return than by putting the boot into Guy Ritchie's lamentable IN THE GREY (2026) explodinghelicopter.com/2026…

Quite possibly the best episode you have ever published, sir
On the new Exploding Helicopter podcast we're reviewing THE JEWEL OF THE NILE (1985). We're joined by @TruBromanceCast to discuss whether this is a worthy sequel to Romancing The Stone and this chopper fireball. Listen wherever you get your pods.

EP295: Be careful what you wish for or you may end up with a cat sandwich, absurdly dark domestic horror, and surprisingly decent dead-pet poetry. This week, we are covering the Curry Barker phenomenon, #Obsession. traffic.libsyn.com/truebroma…
