Summary
DAD, YOU'RE WRONG — EPISODE 6: "A24, DO YOU HAVE MOMMY ISSUES?" Dad, You're Wrong is back for 2026, and Eric and Josh couldn't have picked a more fitting film to kick things off. Undertone is a film about a paranormal podcaster who probably should have stopped listening after the first audio file. It is ninety-three minutes of exceptional sound design, one remarkable performance, slow camera work that borrows heavily from the right toolboxes, and a script that Eric and Josh land in very different places on. Josh walked out wanting to watch it again that same day. Eric checked his phone three or four times. They dig into the analog versus digital horror debate, the Skinamarink and Iron Lung comparisons, the unreliable narrator theory that might explain everything, the threads that never get tied, and why the sound design is either the whole movie or the problem with the movie depending on who you ask. Josh makes the most coherent case for the ending either of them has heard. Eric almost agrees. VHS Vault: Josh finds a Sundance screener of Darren Aronofsky's Pi (1998) at a thrift store in Pilsen. It connects to this episode more than you might expect. Plus: what is coming next, why trepanning came up, and the question this film kept making Eric ask about A24's recent output.
