Episode 155 of The Rum & Regret Podcast takes a hard left turn through pop culture. We start in Westeros with a breakdown of the first two episodes of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, sharing our early impressions and concerns. Then we pivot to trailers—reacting to Darth Maul’s return, the power of Masters of the Universe, the ultra-violent hype of Invincible Season 4, and the joyful chaos of The Muppet Show. It’s a little serious, a little ridiculous, and exactly the kind of mix we live for.
2026 is shaping up to be a big year. In this episode of The Rum & Regret Podcast, we preview the upcoming movies, television series, video games, and experiences we’re most looking forward to. From massive releases to under-the-radar surprises, we break down what has our attention, what we’re cautiously optimistic about, and what might completely take over our lives next year.
It’s our annual tradition—and we’re going all in. On this year’s Rum & Regret Annual Best Of episode, we break down the TV shows that had everyone talking, the movies that dominated the box office (and the group chats), and the pop culture moments that defined 2025. From surprise hits to unforgettable flops, viral moments to cultural shifts, we toast the stories, stars, and chaos that made 2025 one unforgettable year in entertainment. Pour a drink and relive it all with us.
The Rum & Regret team clocks in with Jo's Horror Corner, The Rum & Regret Watchlist & Nate's Marvel Minute for December 2025.
The Rum & Regret crew is back for Episode #151, and this time they’re joined by special guest Cam Hughes for a deep dive into Netflix’s chilling new series, Monster: The Ed Gein Story. From the true-crime roots of one of America’s most infamous killers to the series’ unsettling attention to detail, the gang breaks down what works, what twists the stomach, and why Gein’s legacy continues to haunt pop culture.
Cam brings his sharp facts, Andy pours the drinks, Jo brings the receipts, and Nate regrets everything (as usual) while the team unpacks the psychology, storytelling, and real-world horrors behind the show.
Grab a glass, brace yourself, and settle in for a conversation equal parts fascinating and freaky. It’s Rum. It’s Regret. It’s Gein.
The Rum & Regret are back as Andy and special guest Steve Polivka return from the shadows to unpack their October 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days challenge! From bone-chilling classics to “why did we watch this?” duds, they break down the highs, lows, and late-night scares that kept them going all month long. Expect plenty of laughter, questionable movie choices, and the kind of horror-fueled delirium only the Rum & Regret crew can deliver.
The annual terror tradition returns! In Nate’s Nightmare Fuel, Vol. IV, Andy, Jo & Steve once again subject poor Nate to a triple dose of cinematic trauma — this time featuring the bone-crunching brutality of Bone Tomahawk, the supernatural possession chaos of Talk to Me, and the unnerving mystery of Bring Her Back. Will Nate survive this year’s horror gauntlet with his sanity intact, or will he finally admit we’ve gone too far? Grab your rum, steel your nerves, and join The Rum & Regret Podcast for screams, laughs, and maybe a few therapy referrals.
This week on The Rum & Regret Podcast, the gang cracks open some spooky spirits and dives headfirst into a triple feature of chaos! We kick things off with a deep cut into Gen V, where superhero academia gets a lot messier (and bloodier) than expected. Then we rewind to a nostalgic nightmare with VHS Halloween, exploring analog scares that still hit harder than streaming jumpscares. Finally, we feast our way through Marvel Zombies—because even Earth’s Mightiest Heroes can’t escape the hunger. Grab your drink of choice and join us for laughs, horror, and the occasional bad pun—because it’s spooky season and the Rum Boys are hungry for content! 🧟♂️🎃🥃
The crew cracks open a bottle and dives headfirst into Alien: Earth, the latest chapter in the iconic sci-fi horror saga. We break down the story, performances, and whether this installment delivers fresh terror or just rehashes old nightmares. Expect sharp takes, laughs, and a few side tangents along the way—because it wouldn’t be Rum & Regret without them.
This week on the Rum & Regret Podcast we dive into:
🎬 Freaky Tales – a wild anthology that doesn’t hold back.
🎶 K-Pop Demon Hunters – yes, it’s exactly as insane as it sounds (and we loved it).
👽 Alien Earth – the new TV series that asks, what if home was never really ours?
Grab your drink of choice 🍹, hit play ▶️, and join us as we break down the best (and weirdest) of the big screen and small screen this week.
This week on the Rum & Regret Podcast, we enter full trailer breakdown mode as we dive headfirst into three of the biggest drops from SDCC (or your nerd feed of choice):
🔥 Mortal Kombat 2 – We analyze every bone-crunching frame, speculate on the tournament’s stakes, and debate who’s bringing the most fatal energy this time around. (Spoiler: it’s still Sub-Zero.)
👾 Predator: Badlands – The galaxy’s deadliest hunter hits the Wild West(?) and we’re here for every dusty, dystopian standoff. Can this be the franchise revival we didn’t know we needed?
⚡ Tron: Ares – It’s neon, it’s moody, and Jared Leto is in it. We break down what’s next for the Grid and whether this entry can reboot the reboot.
Plus, we share our regrets (as always) and our favorite hype moments from each trailer. 💥 Subscribe, listen, and let the speculation begin!
