Episode Details

A24's Primetime is NOT the Chris Hansen biopic you expect!

Robert Pattinson, Merritt Wever, and Skyler Gisondo star in A24's Primetime, directed by documentarian Lance Oppenheim (Some Kind of Heaven, Sperm World) with Nathan Fielder and Ari Aster in the mix. If you're expecting a straightforward Chris Hansen biopic about the To Catch a Predator era, buckle up: this is "docufantasia," a heightened, satirical blend of documentary and fantasy, shot in a boxy 4:3 frame that looks like an old CRT reality show. BUT no one told Cupcake and our guest about this!

We open on a discussion of the "To Catch a Predator", the advent of "Gotcha" reality news, and just WTF "docufantasia" is. Then, Cupcake and WildDaBeast, joined by returning guest Tyler from Raiders of the Podcast, give their spoiler free verdicts on what is likely to be one of the most controversial films (but NOT for what you think) with INCREDIBLE performances from Robert Pattinson (who is having quite the Anne Hathaway-esque year) and Skyler Gisondo.

Pssst....one of us thinks this is "one of 2026's best films of the year".
