What we’re Enjoying Shua has been Enjoying the apocalypse. Well, kind of. He’s enjoying the world of Fallout. The new series on Prime Video is based on the successful video games from Bethesda. It’s a 1950’s style world and nuclear war has laid waste to the world. It’s up to an out of place vault dweller, a surface misfit, and a ghoul to save everyone. Jay sat down and experienced Zack Snyder’s Grain Harvesters: Part Two–The Reaping on Netflix. Well, I guess most people would know it by the title Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver. The continuation of Snyder’s universe had a lot to get excited about. Action, special effects, deeper character development, and of course slow motion grain harvesting. Check it out and let us know what you think.
Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay shuts off the lights and gets dark with The Chronicles of Riddick (2004) starring Vin Diesel. After a year of sci-fi that doesn’t feel very sci-fi, this was a nice return to outer space and futuristic action. Diesel was passionate about making it and it shows. Check it out today! Make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.
Enjoy Music! It’s the end of Season 3! Enjoy Stuff celebrates by playing our favorite game, “5 Songs” Jay and Shua play each other 5 different songs that make them think of particular movies. Try to play along and guess what movies each song came from. But wait! There’s more to it this time. We have cut these clips down to as little as 1 sec. Will Jay and Shua be up for the challenge? Tune it to find out.
How did you do? Are there specific songs that make you think of a movie? First person that emails me with the subject line, “I heard that in a movie” will get a special mention on the show. Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to EnjoyStuff@RetroZap.com

What we’re Enjoying Jay took a trip to the great outdoors to enjoy Bald Eagle State Park. It’s always nice to enjoy nature and get away from the world for a bit. Shua watched Steve! (Martin) A Documentary in 2 Pieces. It was a great look at the life of this eclectic and talented comedian. You can find that on Apple TV+.
Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays shares the dark predictions of 2004’s The Day After Tomorrow.

Check it out today! Make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.
Enjoy the Future! Can we predict the future? Sure! Are we going to be right? Well…probably not. But we might get pretty close on a few things. That’s what the Usborne Book of the Future did back in 1979. It gave us a look at what they thought was going to be coming in the 21st century. You might be surprised to find out that they got a lot of things kind of right. From robots to cities to travel, we look at some of their more memorable predictions. Plus, Jay plays a game to see just what movies and TV shows predicted some things we have in our world today.
What did you hope to see in the future we’re living in now? And what’s to come in the next 50 years?

It's Jay's birthday! This week we celebrate another trip around the sun with a variety of fun games, segments, and discussions. It's a non-stop party on Enjoy Stuff!
What better way to celebrate a birthday than with music, toys, movies, and games! We throw it all in this week on Enjoy Stuff as we celebrate the Jovial one himself!
News We got a cool trailer for a new animated series on Disney+ called Star Wars: Tales of the Empire The release date for TRON: Ares has been announced! An amazing looking game called Star Wars Outlaws has a new trailer and we’re impressed

What we’re Enjoying Shua decided to check out something that keeps popping up on the Disney+ banner called Renegade Nell. It’s a period piece taking place in the 1700’s and it features Nell Jackson, who tries to do good by using some mysterious super powers. Jay found a different kind of team-up/crossover movie which may be considered a B movie (or maybe C-) It’s called Monster Mash but it’s not about a dance or breakfast cereal. Just imagine if monsters teamed up to fight against Dr. Frankenstein. It’s another example of crazy fun.
Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay tries to remember an article that may have been erased from his memory. It was all about the 2004 movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It seems like a great idea to erase bad memories from your mind, but it may cause more problems than it’s worth. This movie really makes you think about your life and your decisions. Check it out today! Make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.
Enjoy Birthdays! This week we throw all the darts at the idea board to celebrate fun stuff for Jay’s birthday. We start off with a little game of David v. Keith x Keith v. David. And yes, it’s pretty much how it sounds. Next we discuss Jay’s complicated relation with the Smurfs. Yes, those tiny little blue things with the white hats that are always having to escape Gargamel even though they’re just trying to Smurf with their Smurfs so they can Smurf all the Smurfs on Smurf. Do you know the difference between Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars? We’re not sure we do either, but we try to break it down by looking back at our own toys. Next we play a few rounds of Geek Out to challenge our knowledge of a variety of geeky topics. Finally we come up with a list of some music that don’t just make you tap your feet, they tell whole stories.
Let’s all wish Jovial Jay a happy birthday! Which of our topics made you think of something? First person that emails me with the subject line, “Jovial Birthday Happy Jay!” will get a special mention on the show. Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to EnjoyStuff@RetroZap.com

Don't panic! It's only dark because of that giant celestial object in the sky has moved in front of our main source of energy and life for the whole planet. But it's only going to last for a few minutes. Enjoy Stuff looks at some legendary eclipses and other things that cover.
Need a joke? Maybe some multiverse podcast ideas? Or how about just a few laughs? Come be fools with us as we celebrate the silliest holiday of all.
News Disneyland is making a tremendous change to Autopia A trailer has now been released for Unfrosted, the Pop-Tarts story Christopher Nolan to be the next Dark Knight…well, just a regular knight… Now you can eat food right out of the mouth of Jabba the Hutt at Disneyland RIP Louis Gossett Jr.

What we’re Enjoying Jay’s way IS the highway as he indulged in the rippling abs of Jake Gyllenhaal in Roadhouse. This is, of course, a remake of the 1989 Patrick Swayze classic. The modern day version has been updated, and is a bit more realistically violent, but also entertaining and action packed. Check out Roadhouse on Prime Video. Shua jumped hip-deep into the Kaiju footprint and experienced the latest Monsterverse movie where he discovered that Godzilla x Kong = Two Tons of Fun!
Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay rediscovered another time travel movie with The Butterfly Effect. (2004) Ashton Kutcher plays Evan who has the ability to travel back to important times in his life and change things that happened. But he is surprised to learn how much even a little difference can change. Check it out on Retrozap.com. Make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.
Enjoy Eclipses! April 8, 2024 will mark the date of a total eclipse of the sun in the United States. Eclipses are fairly rare, but nothing really fantastical or magical about them, just scientific. But that doesn’t mean you can’t use it as a cool motivator in movies. We look back at movies where an eclipse played an important role.
The moon will be covering the sun today, but after it’s over you’ll be able to enjoy other covers. Musicians often cover other artists' songs. And sometimes their version ends up being more popular than the original. We look at a few legendary ones.
But what could be more legendary than the best cover artist of them all; Weird Al Yankovic? Not all of Al’s songs are covers, but the parodies that are are excellent. Some are even better than the one they are parodying.
Are you in the path of totality? What are you covering today? First person that emails me with the subject line, “Never gonna give you up” will get a special mention on the show. Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to EnjoyStuff@RetroZap.com

What we’re Enjoying Shua felt shivers as he watched Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire. Not just because of the chilling villain, but because of all the nostalgic feelings along with a bunch of new stuff to enjoy from the latest film. Jay was really pleased to discover that the comic series Hell to Pay by Charles Soule and Will Sliney was a unique and entertaining story. Worth checking out for sure.
Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays explored a time travel movie again with the 2003 Ben Affleck movie Paycheck. Based on a short story by Philip K. Dick, John Woo directs a movie about the consequences of seeing into the future. Though Jay feels the story is a bit padded, it did bring up some interesting thoughts about decisions. Check it out on Retrozap.com. Make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.
Enjoy Foolin’! It’s April Fools Day Earbuds! And that means it’s time to have a little fun. But never fear, Enjoy stuff will make sure the jokes don’t ruin your day.
