Your hosts Bryan, Matt, Joel and Ryan have a lot of work to do this week! They have to wrap up and rank everything about the Friday the 13th franchise! They rank the movies, the Jasons, the kills and so much more! This whole series has been so much fun and the wrap-up is a very fond farewell to the franchise. Be sure to tune in next week when we start talking Robocop in Automatic Pig!
Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Fence Post" Dykes, Joel "Tree Trimming Saw" Dewitte, and Ryan "Uber Machete" Lootens take on the most recent Friday the 13th film, the remake from 2009. While this movie may have some "stupendous" moments here and there, it largely leaves the binge buddies rather disappointed. But they have a blast taking it apart!
Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie-Dog Sleeping Bag" Dykes, Joel "Sleeping Bags" Dewitte, and Ryan "Corkscrew" Lootens bring you the Christmas episode to end all Christmas episodes! One where we mostly forgot to talk about Christmas at all! But we do talk a lot about all the death and mayhem caused by two of the greatest slashers of all time going head to head! This movie is far from flawless, but joy can be found in all the flaws, making this one hell of a good time! Enjoy your break from the holiday and our last episode of 2023! Taking a little break for the holidays and we will be back in January!
Your hosts Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog His Bare Hands" Dykes, Joel "Ice Pick" Dewitte, and Ryan "Axe" Lootens tackle the hard questions this week.
Masterpiece or Train Wreck?
A love letter to the franchise or a middle finger to the legacy?
Is this an intentional comedy or an accidental tragedy?
Do the Binge Buddies actually get to the answers on any of these questions? Not really, but they have a ton of fun trying!!
🎄It’s 2001, and a magical partridge is sending me on a coat drive for some kind of Karate Kid-style Santa training.
Hop in our light blue ’54 convertible and buckle up as we take you on a joyride through the very last and most forgotten Rankin/Bass Christmas special, featuring a mostly black cast starring Patti LaBelle, Gregory Hines, and a criminally underused Eartha Kitt as a talking cat.

In 1998, Madrid-based videogame developers Pyro Studios produced a shock hit with their landmark game Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines. It shifted 900,000 copies, and did particularly well in the UK and Germany. Eventually, it would prove to be the trigger point for a small but uniquely engaging sub-genre of real-time stealth tactics games. These sprang up in the early 2000s, died off, and were then revived in 2016.
After the release of the standalone expansion Beyond the Call of Duty in 1999, Pyro’s British publisher, Eidos, were eager to profit from another success. They put their weight behind the Spanish developers, who set to work on a sequel with a hefty budget of $7 million. Flush with cash and manpower, Pyro ultimately delivered an almost recklessly ambitious follow-up: 2001’s Commandos 2: Men of Courage.
Over 20 years later, the game is still an essential entry in the genre that Pyro invented. Commandos 2 is definitely a product of its time, and its learning curve can be steep for those more familiar with the friendlier revivals made by Mimimi Games. It is exuberant but imperfect, with a number of new concepts and systems which could have been better implemented. Despite these flaws, Commandos 2 is a thrilling exercise in painstaking stealth - and no exploration of the genre is complete without it.

Episode Notes
Could Earth have been visited by an advanced species of aliens in the past, and could this "paleocontact" have played a role in the cultural (or biological) evolution of our species? This is the core of Ancient Astronauts theory, which Carl Sagan urged scientists to take seriously. The idea has been explored in science fiction and even led to the "Ancient Aliens"-style pseudo-archaeological theories.

Episode Notes
Could humanity be the first intelligent civilization to emerge in our galaxy? Could that be why, when we look up at the night sky, we are confronted with a "Great Silence"? This is the essence of the "Firstborn Hypothesis," a proposed resolution to Enrico Fermi's time-honored question ("Where is Everybody?")

On today's program, Mike Slater reflects on the 22nd anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks while telling the stories of the "close calls" and the brave men and women who triumphed and fought back on such a horrific day.
Following the monologue, Mike is joined by Retired NYPD Lieutenant Joe Cardinale who talks about his own first-hand experiences from that awful time and how he feels about the event all of these decades later.
Welcome to the finale of "Toretto's Shitty Tuna Sandwich," our in-depth look through the Fast and Furious franchise. Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog" Dykes, Joel DeWitte, and Ryan Lootens sit down and rank all the movies and go over the highlights of the series. There's a lot of great filmmaking in here and a lot of fun moments, even if not every film lands. Where does this franchise sit with you? Do you agree with these lists?
On this episode we continue our TOP 100 FAVORITE MOVIES EVER. This is part 5, the 50s. This brings us to the halfway point in the project!
This week on Toretto's Shitty Tuna Sandwich the Binge Buddies reach the end of the road of the Fast Franchise so far with 'Fast X.' Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Vauxhall HC Viva Farenza Canada '71-'73" Dykes, Joel "ANC Pacer" DeWitte, Ryan "DMC Delorean" Lootens discuss the one thing that works in this movie (Momoa) and then go into everything else that doesn't work. And folks, the rest of the stuff just doesn't really work. You'll want to hear about it all.
Hi and welcome to yet another exciting episode of Toretto's Shitty Tuna Sandwich. This week Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Volvo P1800" Dykes, Joel "Alfa Romeo Spyder" DeWitte, and Ryan "Hudson Hornet" Lootens tackle 'Fast 9: The Fast Saga.' Does it recover the adventure and charm of the older entries in the series or does it strain with fatigue? Does it bring the ensemble that we know and love back together or does it feel like a Vin Diesel movie with other actors living in the b-story? The gang covers all this and more.
Let me ease you into my understanding of Artificial Intelligence. This is the simple version and also, what you fear about AI is not the right thing to be afraid of. It's here, it's not going back into the tube sort of speak. So, it's time to embrace it and learn what the real issue about this new and incredible technology!
Also, check out Colin and Samir's interview with Miles Fisher, the guy who did deep fakes of Tom Cruise....and got away with it!

This week on 'Toretto's Shitty Tuna Sandwich' Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Shelby GT 500CR" Dykes, Joel "Bentley EXP100GT" DeWitte, and Ryan "Jaguar XJS" Lootens make a pit stop to talk about the rather abyssmal (and overlong) Fast franchise offshoot 'Hobbs & Shaw.' At least Statham and the Rock gave it their all, right? RIGHT?
This week on another high octane episode of "Toretto's Shitty Tuna Sandwich," Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Sion tC" Dykes, Joel "Ford Mustang" DeWitte, and Ryan "Dodge Viper" Lootens talk about the most disappointing entry in the Fast and Furious franchise since the second movie - 'The Fate of the Furious.' Slower car chases, pacing issues, and other issues abound and the Binge Buddies crew is there to work through them all.
On this episode, we are joined by returning guest, Kev "The Rev" Fuller as we discuss the looming issues with the Writer's and SAG strike going on. As this on-going issue stems from AI creating scripts and background actors we were inspired to share our lists of our favorite movies that deal with artificial intelligence.
