Today’s episode is absolutely jam-packed with entertainment news, after Warner Bros. decided to blow a hole in the theatrical market by announcing all their 2021 films will be released on struggling streamer HBO Max, and Disney held a 4-hour investor conference in which they announced or detailed 100+ TV series and movies, the vast majority heading to their (decidedly not struggling) streamer Disney+. Breaking down all this news forms the bulk of the episode, but we also review the latest two episodes of The Mandalorian at the end – spoiler: they’re good – fill you in on some games we’ve been playing, and explain why we won’t be reviewing Cyberpunk 2077, after a disastrous launch presenting the game in a nearly unplayable state.
