  • Subscribe to Survive: Black Mirror's Common People
    This week, it’s a short and sweet dive into one of the most talked-about episodes from the new season of Black Mirror. Aidan explores the premiere’s central question: what if our lives were run by subscription? The episode follows a couple, Mike and Amanda, as they grapple with a brain-implant tech from a company called River Mind—where tiered subscriptions literally shape their reality. Aidan draws sharp parallels to real-world services like Peacock, Amazon Prime, and dating apps, unpacking just how deeply subscription culture has embedded itself into our lives.

  • Parker Posey: Quirky, Chaotic, and Still Reigning
    In this episode of Banterly, Aidan and guest Sophia dive into the wonderfully weird world of Parker Posey. First stop: Party Girl (1995), where Posey spins through ‘90s NYC rave culture in platforms and cardigans, only to fall head-over-heels for... the Dewey Decimal System? Fast forward to The Parenting (2025), a comedy-horror flick where she’s back at it—this time as a chaotic Airbnb host with a demon problem. Aidan and Sophia unpack Posey’s signature brand of delightful oddball, from cult classics to her recent White Lotus fame. They wrap things up with a goofy hypothetical: what jobs would they take if their party eras came to an end?

  • Adolescence, Incel Culture, and Low-Cal Bullying
    In this episode of Banterly, Aidan and Maya recount their chaotic attempt to go to London (spoiler: it didn’t happen) and how they accidentally became full-on tourists in New York instead. Between reminiscing about their childhood theater kid eras and exposing their parents' questionable internet rules, things take a more serious turn. The duo dives into Adolescence, Netflix’s new British crime miniseries about a 13-year-old boy accused of murdering his classmate. They unpack the show’s haunting look at online rabbit holes—from the manosphere to incel forums—and how they’re shaping a generation of boys. Aidan and Maya don’t hold back on their thoughts about digital parenting, algorithmic influence, and why Adolescence should be required viewing for, well, everyone. Tune in for the laughs, stay for the existential dread.

  • POV: You’re Watching a $350 Million Sci-Fi Movie
    This week, Aidan sits down with TikTok creator Maddi Koch (@maddikoch), whose POV-style movie reviews make you feel like you’re chatting with your best friend. Aidan and Maddi debate their ideal robot companions before diving into The Electric State—the Russo brothers' latest sci-fi fantasy action-adventure film starring Millie Bobby Brown, Chris Pratt, and a whole lot of AI-fueled chaos. Are robots the future? Should we be scared? And, more importantly—do they really cost $350 million to make? They break down the many critiques of the film’s production and whether it's a case of "executive dysfunction" (because, let’s be real, audiences don’t like being told what to love).
