It's all about the ongoing SAG/WGA strike and how it will effect our show! Plus, Blur!

These are dicey times in the entertainment industry. And we want to make sure we're being true to our show while following the guidelines put out by the Screen Actors Guild. Our show is entirely about movies and television so this transition is going to be a challenge. Listen and let us know how we did!

Chris is recommending the new Blur album in Brooker Beats.

It’s all about our family vacation, the Barbie movie hype, Oppenheimer and Ryan Bingham.

It’s all about our family vacation, the Barbie movie hype, Oppenheimer and Ryan Bingham.

Hollywood has been turned upside down this past week! And we recorded this episode just days before the strike was called. So we talk about the Barbie movie, Oppenheimer and more. But please know that we are in full support of the SAG-Aftra and WGA strikes! Heather is a member of SAG and strongly supports her unions's decision to strike.

We will deep dive into that and how we plan to pivot our coverage in the coming weeks and months in support of these unions.

Brooker Beats this week is all about Ryan Bingham!

And Channing Chansplains what a private server is on Roblox.

It’s all about Mission Impossible, the SAG Strike, Indiana Jones and Barenaked Ladies!

There's a lot going on in the entertainment biz right now and we managed to squeeze it all into a short show! The WGA has been on strike for over 2 months and now SAG AFTRA performers will be joining them. We're talking about why they are striking and what this means for you.

Chris and Heather joined Disney+ for a special screening of Indiana Jones. They liked it!

The whole fam saw Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning thanks to our friends at IMAX. This was Chan's first Mission Impossible experience and she really enjoyed it! Now she wants to see all the other films.

Chris's 90s obsession continues so he's recommending the new single from Bare Naked Ladies "Lovin' Life" in Brooker Beats.

Heather is excited for Barbie (opens July 21st in theaters)

Chan is excited about a new Roblox gamed called Rainbow Friends

Chris recommends watching Yellowjackets on Showtime.

It’s all about the best family vacation spots, superhero fatigue, and Lana Del Rey!

Summer is in full swing on BFP! But we aren't going on vacation until the end of summer. That got us thinking...where are some of the best family vacation spots for summer? See how many you can guess!

And the box office is seeing it's lowest numbers in years this week. That's surprising because analysts thought The Flash would bring people out in droves. Are we tired of superhero movies? Or just this superhero?

Chan recommends Ruby Gillman: Teenage Kraken (In theaters June 30)

Chris recommends Secret Invasion (now streaming on Disney+)

Heather recommends Is It Cake (now streaming on Netflix)

In Brooker Beats, Chris thinks you should be listening to Lana Del Rey. And he's never wrong.

It's all about The Flash failing at the box office, Elemental, visiting Tulsa, and Jimmy Eat World!

It's all about The Flash failing at the box office, Elemental, visiting Tulsa, and Jimmy Eat World!

All the hype didn't pay off at the box office for The Flash. It's not doing as well as WB hoped so we're talking about why that could be. Pixar's Elemental is in the same boat. Reviews for that one are pretty bad but Channing still really wants to see it.

We visited Tulsa during a Tornado and lived to tell our story.

Brooker Beats welcomes Jimmy Eat World's new single.

Chris recommends Black Mirror (again)

Chan recommends iCarly (rewatch)

Heather recommends Theater Camp (in theaters July 14th)

It's all about The Flash, a DCU Reboot, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and boygenius!

It's all about The Flash, a DCU Reboot, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and boygenius!

We're going to Tulsa! So we had to squeeze in our thoughts on The Flash before we go visit family in Oklahoma. And our thoughts on The Flash are well...divided. There's a lot of controversy surrounding this film and we talk about why some people are boycotting because of Ezra Miller, and why some fans are choosing to look past the controversy and see it anyway. 

Plus we play a little DC superhero trivia game (which we failed epically) 

What to watch:

Chris recommends you watch season 2 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds (Paramount+) and season 6 of Black Mirror (Netflix)

Heather recommends you watch Righteous Gemstones season 3 (Max)

Chan recommends Doogie Kameāloha, M.D. season 2 on Disney+!

Brooker Beats:

Chris is loving the new album from boygenius called On the Record, which is available now.

It's all about Ted Lasso, Silo, Trolls, Moby's new album and our friends from The Parent's Lounge stop by!

This week we are still swooning over the finale of Ted Lasso (Apple TV+). And Heather surprises Chris by revealing similarities between Ted Lasso and The Wizard of Oz (did you catch it too?)

We're still gushing over Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. Seriously, go see it!

Chan is pumped for the new Trolls movie which comes out in November. She's also discovered Sam and Cat on Netflix and Chansplains it to us.

Heather is patiently awaiting the return of Outlander (Starz).

Chris is loving the dystopian series Silo (Apple TV+) and recommends the new Moby album, Resound NYC. 

And we're thrilled to welcome two very funny dads to the show! Jamie Kaler and Jason Gowen of The Parent's Lounge join us to talk about fatherhood and humor and what they watch (or don't watch!) with their kids.

It’s all about Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, The Little Mermaid, Smartless and the Foo Fighters!

It’s all about Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, The Little Mermaid, Smartless and the Foo Fighters!

No spoilers! We saw an early screening of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse with directors Lord and Miller and it was the best movie we've seen so far this year. That is not something the BFP gang says lightly. We don't give anything away that you don't already know from the trailer and other reviews, but we do talk about the incredible animation, the heartfelt story, and the music. It hits theaters June 2.

We also recap the Succession finale and like many of you, were glad to see Tom at the helm of Waystar/GoJo.

And we're giving you an HONEST review of The Little Mermaid (Halle Bailey, Melissa McCarthy) and whether you should spend your money on this remake, or wait until it hits Disney+ in a few weeks. (Hint: Just wait!)

And Chris recommends everyone check out the new Foo Fighters single “Show Me How” from their new album, But Here We Are. The single, which incorporates dream-pop and shoegaze elements is the first album since the untimely passing of drummer Taylor Hawkins. 

What to watch:

Chan recommends Coop and Cami Ask the World on Disney+

Heather recommends Smartless: On the Road on Max with Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett

Chris recommends Star Trek: Prodigy on Paramount+

It’s all about the WGA Strike, Frozen 3 fan theories, Fast X and Mike Doughty!

It’s all about the WGA Strike, Frozen 3 fan theories, Fast X and Mike Doughty!

We are back with season 2 of Brooker Family POPcast after a much-needed break. Between birthdays, Chan's first musical and our anniversary we've been running around like crazy! Now we're back in gear with another episode of BFP. 

We're breaking down the WGA strike and explaining to Chan why it's happening and what this means for the entertainment business. Chris and Heather gush over their love of the very talented singer/songwriter Mike Doughty. They highly recommend you check out his new album with Ghost of Vroom.

Heather talks about her interview with Vin Diesel (he's super nice!) and what's keeping the Fast X franchise alive.

And Succession isn't a show for kids, but we are obsessed with it and can't wait for the finale. Well, Chris and Heather can't wait. Channing is watching Jessi on Disney+.

Season 2 of "Rugrats" just dropped on Paramount+ and we are thrilled to welcome the cast! E.G. Daily (Tommy Pickles) and Tara Strong (Dil Pickles) join us to talk about what new adventures are in store for these babies in season 2(no spoilers!)

We’re wrapping up season 1 in style as we recap Chris’ birthday blowout and celebrate Chan’s stage debut in Annie!

Did you know you can buy a Ballet in a Box? We have details on the Redondo Beach company that's offering a full ballet for your community. Chris thinks you all should listen to Liz Phair in Brooker Beats.

And will Nic Cage make a good Dracula? We think so! Renfield opens this week and looks like it will bite you in your funny bone (who writes this stuff?)

We're pumped for the new Peter Pan on Disney+ and have several recommendations of what to watch with your family.

It's all about the Star Wars Celebration, the cast of "Jane" on Apple TV+, the Super Mario Bros Movie, and Lucious Jackson!

Lets-ago! The Super Mario Bros Movie is breaking box office records and we think we know why. We deep dive into why we think Nintendo, Illumination Entertainment and Universal Pictures did a great job with this film! And Chris Pratt's Mario was great so everyone can chill out now.

We're also sharing some highlights from the Star Wars Celebration in London including new movies and series coming our way. 

Channing talked for way too long about something called "Doors" on Roblox. Seriously, she might still be talking about it.

And Chris tells us why we should all revisit the band Lucious Jackson in Brooker Beats. And he's never wrong!

It's all about Kate Casey, Reality TV, and we're celebrating birthdays!!

Reality Life with Kate Casey host Kate Casey drops by BFP to talk about what she's watching these days. And trust us, it's a lot! Kate is a wealth of information when it comes to unscripted television and has recommendations for every platform in every genre. She has one of the top-rated podcasts streaming now and once you hear from her, you'll know why.


Plus, it's Channing's birthday! We're celebrating our 10-year-old with some surprises (we'll reveal them in the next episode!) so don't miss it!


Chris is recommending the 30th anniversary edition of Radiohead's "The Bends." Gen-Xers will already be on board with this one. But if you haven't heard of Radiohead, this is your chance to get to know some of their best work.

It's all about The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Taylor Swift Swifties, and Florence and the Machine!

It's all about The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Taylor Swift Swifties, and Florence and the Machine!

Taylor Swift is taking over! Fans are going crazy on social media as her tour makes its way around the country. We're uncovering the truth about Swifties and what other fandoms are equally dedicated to their star.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie is finally here and Chris thinks it's getting review bombed. We hope people give it a chance (but we also hope it's not a stinker!)

Gweneth Paltrow is in court for an alleged ski hit and run incident. Did she do it? The court of public opinion has some thoughts...

Channing sort of explains what a Super Moon is and Chris wholeheartedly recommends the new Florence and the Machine cover of No Doubt's "Just a Girl." Listen to find out why!

And we tell you everything we loved about NYC from Wicked to the bagels.

It’s all about the TikTok ban, the Dungeons and Dragons movie, Doogie Kamealoha and The National!

It’s all about the TikTok ban, the Dungeons and Dragons movie, Doogie Kamealoha and The National!

It's spring break and we're planning a big trip to the Big Apple! Chris and Chan reveal their plan to eat street meat and suffer the consequences.  Is TikTok long for this world? Not if the government big wigs have anything to say about it. Why are they trying to ban TikTok and who will it impact?

The new Dungeons and Dragons movie has arrived! It looks promising and our nerdy hearts have high hopes. 

Heather and Chan are excited about the return of Doogie Kamealoha on Disney+. And Chris is pumped for the final season of Succession on HBO Max. Our little fourth grade something Chansplains Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing and Brooker Beats digs into the new National album and the new Bono and the Edge Disney + special with David Letterman.

It's all about the hits and misses of The Oscars, The Cranberries Anniversary, and Ivy & Bean!

It's all about the hits and misses of The Oscars, The Cranberries Anniversary, and Ivy & Bean!

The 95th Academy Awards gave us all the nostalgic feels! Did you watch? We did! In fact it was Chan's first time watching the Oscars all the way through and she had some interesting thoughts on the winners. We cheered on Everything Everywhere All at Once, Michelle Yeoh, Jamie Lee Curtis, Brendon Fraser, and Ke Huy Quan. And where the heck were James Cameron and Tom Cruise??? We have thoughts...

Plus we're share our 2024 Oscar predictions (we're that good!)

And you should watch Shazam! Fury of the Gods and Ivy and Bean but skip Smile.

Chris is recommending The Cranberries 30th anniversary release of Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We. Wasn't the 90s the best??

It’s all about The Mandalorian, The Oscars, and Ben Folds!

It’s all about The Mandalorian, The Oscars, and Ben Folds!

This week we’re wondering how one of the Mandalorian stars keeps up with his hectic schedule (Hint: it’s NOT Baby Yoda). And the Oscars are this week! We've seen almost all of the Oscar nominated movies, or at least just the ones we will think will win.

Did you know Apple TV+ has a plethora of shows for kids and families? We are highlighting a few of our favorites like Ghostwriter and Amber Brown. Channing fills us in on the history of the California Gold Rush and where has Ben Folds been for the last 8 years? Chris has an update in Brooker Beats.

It's all about TV Reboots and Remakes, Blocksburg on Roblox, and Depeche Mode!

It's all about TV Reboots and Remakes, Blocksburg on Roblox, and Depeche Mode!

Is it March already? Where has the year gone?! This week on BFP we’re already planning our Spring Break get away. Any suggestions?

And forget March Madness, it’s all about the march toward Oscar. We’re talking about what we’ve seen so far of the Academy Award nominees, and what you should see and skip as a family.

We’re also looking at the Rise of the Reboots in pop culture like Night Court, Cobra Kai, Frazier and That 90s Show. Do we need these reboots/remakes? Chris has some big news from the Yellowstone world and he’s sharing new music from an old band you might be familiar with in Brooker Beats.

Chan is obsessed with Blocksburg (another Roblox game obvi) and chimes in with her must watch this week, Nickelodeon’s Nicky, Ricky, Dicky and Dawn.

It's all about girl power on TV, Fast X, Animal Crossing, new standup comedy specials and Paramore!

It's all about girl power on TV, Fast X, Animal Crossing, new standup comedy specials and Paramore!

This week we’re talking about more girl power on TV (yay!) by breaking down some of the female led shows you should be watching. And why is everyone is getting Fast and Furious (again)? Universal Studios just dropped the new Fast X trailer and it's a wild ride.

Chris and Chan went to the Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur premiere with Disney+ and Disney Channel and it was out of this world. Have you heard about this latest offering from the MCU?

And we’re feeling the love in Brooker Beats! Chris is recommending the latest album from Paramore, "This is Why."

We’ll get some epic Chansplaining on Animal Crossing (anyone else play it during the pandemic lockdown?) and what we’re watching this week!

It's all about Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania, sitcoms we love, and Elle King's newest album!

It's all about Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania, sitcoms we love, and Elle King's newest album!

Marvel is gearing up for the next phase of the MCU. Let’s talk about Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania, Guardians of the Galaxy 3, Daredevil, Ironheart and more from the MCU. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is supposed to be the kickoff for the next MCU phase. Will it live up to the hype? Or is everyone kind of sick of superhero movies by now?

Channing tells us why she loves Nickelodeon's Nicky, Ricky, Dicky and Dawn. We also talk about our love for the sitcoms we grew up with and what the kids are watching these days. Chris talks about how surprised he was at the new Elle King album. In a good way!

Is there hope for the DCU? Let’s talk about the DCU slate, Grey Wolves, and the Black Keys

Is there hope for the DCU? Let’s talk about the DCU slate, Grey Wolves, and the Black Keys

If there's one thing we know, it's that the DCU has been STRUGGLING to find it's footing. Could that change with James Gunn's recent announcement of DC's plans for the future? We don't know but we love talking about it. Channing Chansplains grey wolves (they are endangered!) and Chris talks about why everyone should be listening to The Black Keys.
