  1. The Brother Wilson showcase Laurence Fishburne for this month's Hey, An Actor! From his Oscar-nominated turn as Ike Turner in What's Love Got to Do With It? to his levelheaded captain turn in the sci-fi / horror film Event Horizon and his levelheaded scientist turn in warning-to-the-future Contagion, Ian and Pandy have a lot of time for Laurence! Many HAA films from Year One are referenced, as well as Pandy's first MILF, Ian's burgeoning resistance to horror films, and how Sean Pertwee led to the consolidation of The Wilson family.

  9. Ian and Pandy return to cover the career of the recently deceased Christopher Plummer.

Additionally, the hosts question what Americans consider to be sherbet, the relationships between Holmes and Watson, Scatman John, and uncover a new game based upon Teletubby Po's Lancashire impression.

  17. How tall is Wolverine? How many tons can Spider-Man lift? Can The Blob survive a nuclear blast? If you were reading Marvel comic books in the mid-1980s, there was only one place to get all these answers and more: The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe: Deluxe Edition. And, not to be outdone, DC Comics had their handy encyclopedia of stats, histories, and oddball characters: Who's Who in the DC Universe. Today, Dan and Mike dive into these tomes to discuss the preserved-in-amber nature of these wonderful guidebooks. Follow Mike on Twitter @earth_2, @MikeReadsComics, and @ChronologicalFF.

  19. The Brothers Wilson head way back to yesteryear to cover the life and times of one of Hollywood's most notorious stars of the talkies: Judy Garland. In reverse order, Ian and Pandy look at Garland's breakout hit in the legendary The Wizard of Oz, one of Garland's most successful ever films as a studio-contracted player in Meet Me in St. Louis, and her film career watermark in A Star is Born. Along the way, there's serious discussions about the duty of care towards child actors, less serious references to classic episodes of The Simpsons, and the anecdote of when Pandy outright lied to the recently deceased Prince Philip. The episode also touches upon the abomination of the past 20 years of adverts for the Halifax Building Society, and a new song devoted to Hey, an Actor's very own muse, Tom Hemmings.
