Greetings, programs, and welcome to another edition of the Awesome Friday Podcast. This week on the show, we're taking on her recent Netflix release, They Cloned Tyrone, and the still-in-cinemas Joy Ride.  Simon also gets Matthew talking about the recent musical episode of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, which is why the episode runs a little over time.   We hope you enjoy it!

STRIKE NOTE:            

This episode was produced during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Without the labour of the writers and actors currently on strike, the films discussed here wouldn't exist.

Meanwhile, relax and enjoy your flight.  

Friendships are resplendent in this week’s new movies and two friends in Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy are here to tell you which ones to see. Friends try to avoid wearing a parasitic mask (Bad Girl Boogey) while a woman tries to emancipate herself over two decades (Scarlet). A young writer is hired to tutor the son of his idol (The Lesson) while Patrick Wilson’s son is again tortured by an evil entity (Insidious: The Red Door). An ‘80s pop duo gets the documentary treatment (Wham!) while Adam Devine meets his criminal in-laws (The Out-Laws). Finally Mark Duplass and Sterling K. Brown are the last two men on Earth (Biosphere) and a foursome of women take a trip to China in search of identity and pleasure (Joy Ride).
