Episode 214: News, Free Guy, Respect, CODA

We’re delighted to have our great friend Tim Grierson come back and hang out on this week’s Breakfast All Day. Tim joins Christy, Alonso and Matt to review Ryan Reynolds’ video game comedy “Free Guy,” the by-the-numbers Aretha Franklin biopic “Respect,” and the feel-good Sundance favorite “CODA.” In news, we discuss how we feel about going back to screenings in person, Marvel’s latest “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the 10 Rings” only opening theatrically, Jamie Spears saying he’ll step down from Britney’s conservatorship, Mike Richards confirmed as “Jeopardy!” host (with some help from Mayim Bialik), Rachel Maddow possibly leaving MSNBC, Chet Hanks going on an anti-vax rant and Chrissy Teigen trying to sell us french fry dipping sauce. And over at our Patreon, we recap the Christmas episode of “Ted Lasso” and revisit “From Here to Eternity,” August’s Off the Menu selection. Come romp in the waves with us! And come back in a couple of weeks — we’re taking off until September. Enjoy the rest of your summer.
