Ep79: The Matrix Resurrections: Genius… or Corporate Self-Sabotage?
Local comedian and movie obsessive Thomas Bode (Strange Carl) joins us to answer one question:
Why does this movie feel like it’s arguing with itself?
Is it:
• A self-aware masterpiece?
• A rebellion disguised as a sequel?
• Or the most expensive inside joke ever made?
We debate the red pill mythology, nostalgia traps, and whether this film was designed to break fans on purpose.
Warning: This episode may unplug your childhood.

Strange Carl is living proof that every good podcast needs at least one person who operates slightly outside the normal broadcast frequency. Carl doesn’t enter a conversation — he wanders into it sideways, usually carrying a story that somehow starts in reality and ends somewhere no GPS could find. A long-time mate of the show, he has a gift for spotting the weird details everyone else walks past and turning them into moments that derail the room in the best possible way. When Strange Carl shows up on Oldmate & Josh, you can be fairly certain of two things: nobody knows where the conversation will go… and it’s absolutely worth the ride.
