Episode 47 - Welcome to 2015

Julian Meush January 8, 2015

The Tower of Babble crew reunite after the holidays and discuss what little news that came out over the break. Luckily the Ant-Man trailer dropped the day before recording. We are also able to stretch conversations on the PSN/Xbox Live holiday hack, the Gambit movie, Uncharted 4 multiplayer and of course, what we all got for Christmas.

Episode 46 - Year End Top 3

Julian Meush December 25, 2014

Happy holidays to all of the Tower of Babble Nation. We got together early on a holiday morning to record a special year end episode for all of you. Most podcasts wait until the new year to do their top 10 lists but we decided to do something a little different. We compiled a list of not our top 10, but a list of our top 3 games, television shows and movies of 2014. A top 10 is easy, and inevtiably ends up with items you didnt really love at the bottom end. So we decided to make things tough on ourselves and restrict it to a much smaller number and put it up on Christmas Day.

Episode 45 - Star Wars, Suicide Squad and PSX

Julian Meush December 14, 2014

The guys sit down to discuss the Star Wars Episode VII trailer, which of course dropped the day after our last recording. There's a lot of optimism mixed in with some skepticism but overall we're all pretty excited for more Star Wars. We also breakdown the Terminator: Genisys trailer with our resident Terminator expert, Jeremy, who seems to be a bit worried about the direction the series is taking. But it wasn't all trailers to talk about, there was also some big casting news that was revealed over the last two weeks which included Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange, Will Smith as Deadshot, Jared Leto as the Joker as well as the rest of the Suicide Squad. We basically have a hard time finding anything wrong with any of those choices. Finally, the PlayStation Experience (PSX) took place in Las Vegas and we give our take on all the news coming out of that event and so much more in this weeks Tower of Babble Podcast.

Episode 44 - Happy Smash Bros Day

Julian Meush November 30, 2014

Its been a big two weeks for us here at the Tower of Babble Podcast. Super Smash Brothers for Wii U is here and we have a lot to say about it. The franchise has played a major role in shaping our gaming lives so we break down everything there is to know about the latest entry in Nintendo's crazy brawler. But Smash isn't the only franchise to drop a new entry in its series over the last couple weeks, we also take a look at the releases of Far Cry 4, Dragon Age Inquisition and Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham. We even manage to squeeze in discussions about Star Wars, Gotham, Jurassic World and much more.

Episode 41 - Words Mean Something

Julian Meush October 18, 2014

This weeks episode is a doozy. Not only did Marvel drop some major news but DC countered with a bombshell of their own. We breakdown the full DC movie slate as well as Marvels "Civil War" news and Daniel takes issue with some film title naming conventions. We also discuss the premieres of both The Flash, Arrow season 3 and Star Wars Rebels. And of course we talk some video games with Smash Bros for the 3DS, The Evil Within, Shadow of Mordor and some more Destiny.

Episode 38 - A Change of Pace

Julian Meush September 3, 2014

So even though it's been slow for news we pulled together another great episode. Out of Nintendo we discuss the New Nintendo 3DS as well as some rumored characters for Smash Bros. We break down a few news bits out of Gamescom. In particular, the Rise of the Tomb Raider hullabaloo. And of course it wouldn't be a ToB podcast unless we discussed Star Wars and Game of Thrones and as luck would have it we got a story that combined both. All that and much more in this episode of the Tower of Babble Podcast; now broadcasting from the Cayman Islands!

Bonus Episode - 2026 Oscars Preview Show

Bonus Episode - 2026 Oscars Preview Show
Mar 14, 2026

Julian is back from vacation just in time or the 98th Academy Awards! Airing tomorrow (Match 15th), hosted once again by Conan O’Brien, it’s the most prestigious night in Hollywood (after the Tobies of course). This is Matt’s first time on the preview show, so the format is tweaked a bit from our traditional reviews of Oscar noms, though there is still some of that. A broader approach is taken, with a larger focus on the ceremony itself, a peak at the front runners in each category, as well as the betting odds. It’s not all new-school though, find Julian’s traditional “will win”/’want to win” ballots below (Matt will put his together privately) for those curious. Lastly, look for a follow-up show discussing the ceremonies, unpacking the winners, and scoring the ballots next week. Until then, grab your tux, hit the red carpet, rub elbows with the celebs, and enjoy the 2026 Oscars!

SSSW - Kathleen Kennedy Steps Down

SSSW - Kathleen Kennedy Steps Down
Feb 12, 2026

There have been rumours circulating for years about the eventual retirement of Kathleen Kennedy from her role as President of Lucasfilm. Never mind the seemingly constant swirling demands for her head from segments of the fan base. And while those rumours and demands may have felt at times unwarranted, they were nevertheless always going to be right... eventually. Kathleen Kennedy, after 14 years as head of the studio announced that she would be stepping down and returning to a more traditional producer role, and her successors would be Dave Filoni on the creative side, and Lynwen Brennan on the business side. Julian and Rachel unpack the announcement, the press coverage, and even Kennedy's exit interview with Deadline, reading between the lines and trying to get a read on her legacy. As well as examining what life might be like under Filoni as Star Wars enters a new era under his watch. Plus, a check-in on 'The Mandalorian and Grogu' following the underwhelming Super Bowl spot.

Episode 204 - Oscar Noms + 2026 Predictions
Jan 26, 2026

As noted by the recent Tobies, awards season continues in full flight, so it's no surprise to have The Oscars drop their nominations just in time for Matt and Julian to break them down. 'Sinners' taking home 16 noms sets an Oscars record and (more importantly) validates Julian's recent Tobie pick. Plus, the guys return to a more traditional news format with headlines about James Bond, Game of Thrones, He-Man and more! Finally, the guys look into their crystal balls, gazing into the future, to make entertainment-based predictions for the year 2026. How will the WB/Netflix deal play out? Will Star Wars have a hit with 'The Mandalorian and Grogu'? Will Nolan's 'The Odyssey' be as big as 'Oppenheimer'? Only the ToB hosts can tell you! (No future lotto tickets or sports almanacs unfortunately)

Episode 203 - The 2025 Tobie Awards (9th Annual)
Jan 19, 2026

With the Golden Globes holding their annual ceremony last week, it signals only one thing - it’s AWARD SEASON BABY! And of course, when one thinks of the most prestigious awards in entertainment, of course names like Oscar, Tony, and Emmy might come to mind. But held on equal footing with those self-congratulatory titans is of course the name Tobie. That’s right y’all THE TOBIES ARE BACK for another go around at the top three best movies and shows of year. And while there may be a new host in the rotation, the format and the prestige remain unchanged. Join Julian and now Matt to explore what, upon reflection, was a pretty damn good year for visual storytelling on both the big and small screens.
