It's our fifth Quell as Fighting in The War Room, and one of us is super pregnant. With Katey Rich's due date passed, each host picks a movie that they would pass on to the next generation, even if that generation isn't biologically theirs. We go in the order of "most likely to have children in wedlock" starting with pregnant Katey and The Music Man , moving to Matt Patches and Searching For Bobby Fischer , then to David Ehrlich for The World of Tomorrow and finally for Da7e who chose Kung Fu Panda.

Each Host Replaced By The Person Who Puts Up With Them It’s our fourth Quell as Fighting in The War Room (and our 2nd 100th episode as a foursome), and we’ve all stopped going it alone.

David’s fiancé Elisa says David’s not trolling you, Katey’s husband Michael would sometimes rather watch House Hunters, Matt Patches’ better half Michelle proves to be the saner party and Da7e’s girlfriend Java has things to say about Jane Austen adaptations.

Katey Played Warcraft before seeing Warcraft This week, Katey, Patches, Da7e and David want to talk about Zoos as entertainment and/or cruelty. Some news items have Patches wondering if documentaries or even virtual reality provides the same connection to the other things in the world while Da7e “well, actually”s the premise. Before all that, Katey saw Now You See Me 2 and liked it which really pisses of David. Also, we made Katey play a little bit of 1994’s Warcraft: Orcs and Humans before Friday’s review of Duncan Jone’s adaptation.

When Segment 3 Got Deleted This week, Katey, Patches, Da7e and David suffer some technical difficulties, so this week’s segment 3 about hte “Game of Thrones” phenomena had to get cut (it was full of static and pauses, you would have hated it). After a now ironic couple of reviews that include audio quality knocks, the team takes on Weiner, the new documentary that closely follows the Anthony Weiner scandal.

Then, Jodie Foster’s Money Monster is coming out this week with Julia Roberts and George Clooney as the stars, but it doesn’t seem like those names hold the sway they used to.
