Show #104 - Faster Strokes

If the late-summer doldrums have got you down, intensify your depression and listen to the latest episode of 'A Little Snack!' Enjoy! Discussed: Monolith and Bear Trap catch everyone up on the latest baby news, Apple News!, new iPad Pro, '3D touch' and what it might mean for the olds, the movies Paul Rudd was good in, a very learned Word of the Week, Netflix's 'Wet Hot American Summer' and a slow person's understanding of the show's "central joke", thoughts on 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert', the prospect of a Trump presidency brings out the alarmist in Bear Trap and the fatalist in Monolith, why 'Downton Abbey' is so enjoyable, a moving and memorably maternal Monolith Moment, 'Black Mirror', and a shout-out to 'A Little Snack's' sister podcast, 'Never Heard of It'. Its praises are sung. And a bunch of other listen-y stuff.

Show #103 - Hate-Directed

What?! They're still doing this? Unfortunately for you, the answer is yes. Yes they are. Monolith and the Trap usher in the new year with a brand new podcast after a long baby-induced hiatus. (Thanks, Beatrice!) In this episode your trusty Snackers talk exclusively about recent films. Well, almost exclusively. Enjoy it. EDITOR'S NOTE: Just to ensure no one listens to this, all 5 movies discussed deal in SPOILERS. Except Planet of the Apes. I think they got through that one without ruining anything. But if you've seen all of these, you're golden! Discussed: Interstellar, Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part One, The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, Gone Girl, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, the importance of likability in movies, a brand new Word of the Week, and then Monolith's favorite movie of 2014.
