🎄 Previously on the Advent Calendar House, we were Dreaming of a White Ranger with the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.   

This time, they’re away helping Santa, so Zordon surprises Alpha by teleporting in a bunch of children for a Christmas party. Join us for this very bonkers Power Rangers home video, plus our mini tribute to the late Jason David Frank, who’s seen as both the Green and White Ranger here because nobody cares about continuity during Christmas, I guess.

Legendary composer Ron Wasserman tells Tenn about his journey as a musician, from playing in a backing band for E.G. Daily all the way to producing the epic themes from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, X-Men: The Animated Series, and beyond. You'll hear about his experiences with Saban, how he narrowly missed an opportunity to be a part of Guns N' Roses, how he quite possible became the first ever internet viral artist along with his band, Fisher, and more!

On this episode of the podcast, we look at the Power Rangers 30th anniversary special.  Was it pure nostalgia or was it too little too late?  Find out our thoughts now!

Super Hero Time! The Krewe talks tokusatsu from a couple different perspectives! First Doug chats with long time friend, avid listener of the podcast, and tokusatsu aficionado Chris Gooden to discuss his take on tokusatsu and its US counterparts. Then, Doug sits down one-on-one with a former Super Sentai to talk about what it was like acting in tokusatsu. Sotaro Yasuda is best known for his role in Juken Sentai GekiRanger as Ken Hisatsu aka GekiChopper, but he also played the villain-turned-hero Jabel in Kamen Rider Ghost. Sotaro shares some great stories from times on the set and at live shows, his own experiences as a tokusatsu fan, and how he stays connected to the world of tokusatsu! You don't want to miss this one!

Confused by that title?  You'll get it in just a moment lol.

Anyway, on today's podcast we discuss the brand new, never before seen, super original and definitely not overly saturated or ridiculously unrealistic, "Fast X" and for that matter, the Fast series thus far.  Have we as audience members seen enough? Or are you looking forward to Dominic Toretto and the gang once again gracing our theater screens?  Let us know on whatever social media platform you're following us on!

As for other news, we discuss the nostalgic "Mighty Morphin Power Ranger Once and Always" special from Netflix.  How it affected us and brought us back to our childhood, and what we did or didn't like about this latest entry in the long-running television series.  Obviously, lots of love to the late and absolutely beloved Trini and Tommy from the original series, and we're so happy that they were such a major part of our childhoods.

Also, we go into what has been one of our favorite running series' thus far, The Mandalorian Season Finale is here, we've watched it, and we've gathered our thoughts for you.  If you have not yet seen it, be forewarned that this is a spoiler heavy review, and we look forward to jumping back into the Mando-Verse, when next season arrives!

Finally, Netflix has produced some absolute bangers lately, and this month's release starring Ali Wong and Steven Yuen is no different.  "Beef" as it is so appropriately named, is about a road rage incident gone viral that alters the course of two people's lives in a way that you will NEVER expect.  We ABSOLUTELY loved this series, and hope that you get the chance to stream it in it's entirety.

As always, join us again next week for more in the entertainment world and thank you for your continued support!

Good Vibes and Love,

Poi N Soy

We have never denied our ability to peek into the future. A few weeks back we talked about the lack of Star Wars movies. We really did not car, but it was surprising. And wouldn’t you know it, we get news is three new films. We also talk about another spinoff of from a major horror franchise.

Like most horror fans, we love found footage movies in spite - or maybe because - of all of their faults. The first film we review this week gave is a chance to review the a modern take on the genre. It is also an old school haunted house story that feels a lot like a slasher from the 1980s. It also has a third act that feels disconnected from the rest of the film. 

Cube is one of those movies that everyone seems to know, but is never mentioned. In an era when only the most popular shows and movies are revisited, a Cube remake is shocking. Is the Japanese version an improvement or is it just another sequel. We talk about the themes it tries to tackle, the kills, and the twist ending.

On this episode of the podcast, we look back at the movie sequel/reboot of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.  Did we enjoy the film as much as the show growing up?  Does the film hold up as children’s entertainment? Find out our thoughts now! 

Teenagers with Attitude by Zordon

If you’ve ever held a job before, chances are good you’ve had a boss — or colleagues, or employees — that you’ve found frustrating. In fact, of the nearly 100-million full-time workers in America, approximately 51 percent of them aren’t engaged or feel no real connection to their jobs. Another 16 percent actively resent their jobs, and make a point to complain about everyday tasks to their coworkers and associates. 

A lot of researchers examine statistics like these from an adversarial standpoint: they wrongly attack people who are unsatisfied with their work as being lazy, uncooperative, or incompetent. At the same time, managers and bosses often get blamed for the quality of the workplace. While that may be true some of the time, it’s certainly not a “smoking gun” contributor to job dissatisfaction. So how do we fix a problem as complex and thorny as unhappiness with one’s career? 

Instead of looking at all the people who are wrong about disliking their jobs, we prefer to focus on what people do enjoy in their careers. Today we’re providing coaching for someone in that latter category — someone who’s entirely fed up with his management position, and wants to look at alternative options. 

Our (completely real, and entirely non-fictional) coach-ee today is Zordon, mentor to the infamous Power Rangers (who are also one hundred percent real). Despite enjoying parts of his role as a teacher and steward against the powers of evil, Zordon’s a bit dissatisfied with the immaturity of his employees. Zordon has written to us asking for coaching support, and we’re going to help him out. 

If you’re currently feeling unhappy with your fellow employees, or your career in general, stick with us — this one’s for you!

We are back with a new season!! We changed things up a little bit for our As Seen On A Saturday Night segment, but we are still the same show you know and love. We also give our quick thoughts on Turning Red, The Adam Project, The Lost City, and Everything Everywhere All At Once. We also talk about the biggest film & tv news headlines that took place during March 2022 and we definitely don't talk about what happened at the 2022 Oscars (we seriously didn't).
