Aaron recruits Rueben to tackle the behemoth that is the Star Trek canon, dealing with the first episode of Star Trek Picard.  

Stay Tuned for Episode 2


Dive into the cinematic void with Check For Traps, a film podcast that treats every movie, from the week's big release to the forgotten cult classic, as a potential adventure-or a hilarious misadventure. Hosted by the team at Check For Traps, this isn't about simple thumbs-up or thumbs-down reviews. It's about the deep dive, the obsessive scrutiny, and the genuine laughter that comes from engaging with the art form in all its glorious and baffling forms. You'll hear thoughtful, often meandering conversations that pick apart director's choices, celebrate unexpected performances, and commiserate over famous flops with a sense of shared bewilderment. The tone is conversational and packed with inside jokes that regular listeners feel a part of, creating a community around the shared experience of watching too many movies. The show operates on a simple, compelling premise: if you stare into the abyss of cinema long enough, it definitely stares back, and sometimes it even cracks a joke. This podcast finds the humor and the humanity in both masterpieces and messes, making each episode a trip down a rabbit hole you won't want to climb out of. It's for anyone who loves the process of film discussion as much as the films themselves.
