The guys are breaking down how this wildly entertaining, critically acclaimed masterpiece somehow became a box office bomb—though we're officially putting an asterisk on that, considering it was released simultaneously on streaming right in the middle of a global pandemic. Join the crew as they celebrate a movie that seamlessly balances shocking gore with massive amounts of genuine heart. From Harley Quinn's spectacular flower-filled escape and the hilariously tense rivalry between Bloodsport and Peacemaker, to the tragic heroism of Polka-Dot Man and a kaiju-sized, mind-controlling alien starfish named Starro. Grab your tighty-whities and hit play—we're just hoping to survive the beach landing!","meta_description":"Wipe the slate clean and assemble a brand new Task Force X, because the Binge Buddies are deploying to Corto Maltese. > Welcome back to \"Hall of Just Us.\"…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":4015,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/binge-buddies-12085/episodes/binge-buddies-hall-of-just-us-the-suicide-squad/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/binge-buddies-12085/binge-buddies-hall-of-just-us-the-suicide-squad.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
