Listen on

Episode notes

On this episode of Welcome to the Poddy, Clay McMath kicks things off with a courtside look at Greg Popovich’s triumphant return to the San Antonio Spurs and what it means for the NBA’s most stoic sideline legend. Then we dive headfirst into the science (and nonsense) of “attractive laughs” — who has them, who doesn't, and why it matters more than we’d like to admit.

In the body of the show, Clay reviews Havoc (Netflix), the gritty, chaotic action flick starring Tom Hardy. Spoiler alert: it’s got more broken ribs than plot points. Rating it a respectable 4/10 dirty cops, Clay takes inspiration from the film’s mood and pitches a short film idea you didn’t know you needed — Moby Dick, starring Tom Hardy as a cockney-accented NYPD homicide detective hunting a metaphorical whale through the five boroughs. High art? Maybe not. Entertaining? Absolutely.

This episode blends movie reviews, sports updates, and unhinged film pitches into the perfect storm of comedy, chaos, and culture.
