The Matrixverse: Part 5

SUBSCRIBE TO THE PATREON!Josh and Charles are still recording remotely to make sure family members are safe, so rather than watch and record the final Matrix movie separately, the boys decide to push that back a week and give you one last episode of The Matrixverse. Charles is tested kinda similarly to how Neo is tested as he must see how many of these quotes from GamesRadar’s article These Are The Best Matrix Quotes Of All Time can he attribute correctly.

The Carsverse: Part 6 with Jesse Rose-Pulitzer

SUBSCRIBE TO THE PATREON!Pray for us. Pray that John and the rest of the cowards at Disney do not resurrect The Carsverse in the same way that G*d let his dipshit son out of that tomb.

The Carsverse: Part 5

SUBSCRIBE TO THE PATREON!Welcome to a special Passover edition of The Carsverse! With Josh and Jesse both spending time with the family this weekend, scheduling a recording time that worked for everyone was impossible.

The Carsverse: Part 3 with Jesse Rose-Pulitzer

SUBSCRIBE TO THE PATREON!This sucks, no one is having fun, and the big takeaway from Planes is how a big-dicked farmer learns the value of becoming a eunuch so he can win a race or something.
