Episode 53: Madame Web

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 11:00:00 GMT

Her. Web. Connects. Them. All.

In case we retire the bit once and for all as we move into Gravity Falls, we had to do a chat about nobody's favorite movie, Madame Web. We mainly can't get over how boring this was, not worth the memes!!!! Also, is this the most ADR that's ever been in a movie ever???

On a much more serious note, ICE is murdering and kidnapping innocent people all over America. If you are struggling, we are right there with you. Some resources I (Alex) have found helpful that I wanted to share:

For those in Minneapolis: https://naomikritzer.com/2026/01/19/how-to-help-twin-cities-residents/

For those everywhere else: https://naomikritzer.com/2026/01/21/how-to-help-if-you-are-outside-minnesota/

Please take care of yourselves, be safe, and if you're able to help those in need, please do so. This country is beautiful for its diversity, not in spite of it. Fuck ICE, and fuck everyone in this heinous, fascist, sham of a presidential administration.

Thu, 08 Jan 2026 11:00:00 GMT

This was a lot of fun to record! Alex and Matt say goodbye to Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated, talk the Stranger Things finale and media literacy, mourn the fallen, take a quiz, and look ahead to the future.

If you want to take the quiz we do in this episode (just beware of having to create an account lol):

Episode 52: Come Undone

Thu, 25 Dec 2025 18:56:01 GMT

Merry Christmas everyone!!

After 52 episodes, the Mystery Inc. gang saves the entire universe from a Satan equivalent, tons of characters die, and Alex tries (and mostly fails) to not cry on mic.

In all seriousness, this show was a treat to talk about for the better part of 2 years, and we're so thankful for you for being part of the ride.

Stay tuned for our wrap-up episode as we say goodbye to 2025 and Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated one last time.

Episode 50: Gates of Gloom

Thu, 04 Dec 2025 11:00:00 GMT

The end is nigh and the boys are getting a little emo, and also because this episode was incredible!!!!!!

We're bidding adieu to longstanding settings and characters and it's epic and amazing in only the ways this kind of show can be in its final chapter (on that note, shout out to the spectacular-so-far final season of Stranger Things for serving up the same vibes as it nears its end destination).

RIP to the Mystery Machine, long may you reign.

Returning guest/friend of the pod Dan Telek is back for this wacky episode all about the sweet sweet sounds of Ska music. We got way more out of this one than we thought possible lmao. I will never think about ska music this much in my life again as I did in this episode.

Thu, 28 Aug 2025 10:00:00 GMT

Man the writers were NOT messing around with this one. Truly the wildest episode of Scooby Doo in any iteration and that's saying something! Also, John Mayer, come outside, we're not gonna jump you.

PS. The Pamela Anderson-Liam Neeson romance is discussed briefly and it came to light this last Tuesday that it's all for PR and not genuine so like, fuck me for wanting to believe in love, I guess.

I (Alex) am really struggling with insomnia for the first time ever (this is terrifying, you guys) and can't come up with anything witty to put in here. We hope you like this episode, thanks as always if you're a listener :)

We may or may not have an episode next week, depending on if I end up making it to Washington DC this weekend or if I have to call off my trip and stay at home, and thus can record. Stay tuned.

No but seriously, WHAT was the deal with Boron!!

Also, apologies to the Scoob heads out there in this episode, I (Alex) confidently trash talk the movie Trick or Treat, Scooby-Doo! when in actuality the movie I was thinking of is Happy Halloween, Scooby-Doo!, which is an easy mistake to make, don't cut up my Scooby-Doo fancard PLEASE.

We didn't intend to be off for 2 weeks, but we're back! Much like the episode of MI it's covering, this episode is a little scant, but still a good time. Don't villain profile, y'all.

We will be off again next week (sorryyyyyy) but should be back the week afterwards. Stay safe and take care of yourselves!

This episode really pissed Alex off, which is a bummer because it's basically Labyrinth and Nightmare on Elm Street mixed together, which are movies both near and dear to this boy's heart. Alas! We're talking lying to your audience, we're doing a 20 second investigation into the whereabouts of Paula Deen, and we're talking about Katy Perry and how she seemingly cannot go a week without something new going wrong for her.

Note: Matt is currently down with the sickness so we may be off the air next week. Stay tuned!

Episode 26.5: Scooby-Doo! and the Witch's Ghost

Thu, 10 Apr 2025 10:00:00 GMT

The boys (and wife of the pod Emi!) are back and we're looking at Scooby-Doo! and the Witch's Ghost! It's the slightly underwhelming follow-up to Zombie Island and it's a lot of fun. We examine such hard hitting topics as the Scooby-Doo costume at Universal Studios Hollywood and the ethics of being a responsible guest and tourist in a spooky town. Original flavor Hex Girls are here, and they are Hot! (As always, respectfully.)

We aim to be back and diving into season 2 of Mystery Incorporated next week. Thanks for being here!

It's the cartoon's, and our, season finale!!

In one devastating night, the gang finally solves the mystery of what happened to the original Mystery Incorporated, only to lose everything as a result.

We'll be back in this feed with an episode on Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost soon, with season 2 of Mystery Inc not far behind.

Until then, take care of yourselves, and thanks for listening!

Thu, 27 Feb 2025 11:00:00 GMT

*Night Ranger music riff*

Your boys were real sleepy while we recorded this one. (Matt starts to falls asleep near the end of the episode lmao) We get a deeper insight into what really makes Sheriff Bronson Stone tick, Fred's dad is going scorched earth, and we get an insider's take on what it takes to become a deputy in this town! Also, the ending of the episode earns it a legitimately historic spot in Scooby Doo franchise canon, which is wild that it happens in THIS episode.

Some light potential spoilers for season 2 of Severance in the last few minutes of this episode, skip forward a bit when we bring it up if you want to remain unscathed.

Hot Dog Water is BACK, and Cardellini is so so good in the role. Just when you think Mayor Jones can't get any worse as a father, he surprises you! And Mr. E's true identity is finally revealed to us, along with some tantalizing hints about what's soon to come...

Real talk, your boys are struggling with everything that's happening in the US right now. It's exhausting and infuriating and disheartening. Thanks for listening to us as we have a fun little space to yap and try to distract each other from it all. We hope you can get some escapism from it, too.

We're joined by friend of the pod Dan to talk about the wacky Hammer Horror meets reality TV mashup on display this week. This episode contains discussions about ambience apps from hell, Vincent Price movies, and so many tangents.

Note: There seems to be some dead air in the episode, so skip ahead from 15:00 to 16:40.

There is a potential chance that our next episode will be delayed due to all the fire in Matt's area of LA this week (don't worry, he and Emi are safe), but stay tuned, as we WILL return.

The boys close out 2024 with a look at the FANTASTIC seventeenth episode of Mystery Incorporated. This one is one long homage to the Saw movies (!), which is such a wild sentence to say about this children's cartoon. The grim reaper lurks around every corner in this one, and Matt finds himself having a life or death run-in with everyone's pal Jigsaw in our episode's back half.

Episode 16: Where Walks Aphrodite

Thu, 12 Dec 2024 11:00:28 GMT

We are "so back" with this week's episode. In the most Buffy-inspired plot yet, Aphrodite (not the hot one) is wreaking havoc on Crystal Cove, eager to claim her crown and lay waste to everyone in her way. Coupled with one scheming Professor, one good himbo prince back to his best self (thank God), and one tantalizing clue to the mystery lurking under the town, this is one for the books!

Whooboy, this one. Not the most riveting story!!! The boys still have a good time chatting about it, and of course Tobey Maguire gets brought up, because why wouldn't he in this episode about Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated? We also talk about being Team Velma (!) and Fred being a whiny little pissbaby in this one, both of which are developments that surprise us to no end.

We took a week off while Alex coughed his way through the worst sinus infection, but we're back and it's our most unhinged episode yet! We're talking dream logic, flop Scooby-Doo imitation shows, Principal Quinlan and Anne Hathaway being HOT (respectfully), and the sheer masterpiece that is Wicked (2024).

Episode 12: The Shrieking Madness

Thu, 07 Nov 2024 11:00:17 GMT

We briefly contemplated holding this episode back a bit in light of the mood after yesterday's US election results. But if it gives even one person a way to turn their mind off for a bit and just listen to some nerdy conversation about our favorite Scooby Gang, we think it's worth it to post today. We're sad, and there are dark days ahead. But we also have each other, and that is something to be thankful for. - Alex & Matt

Mystery Incorporated spends a weekend at Darrow University, where Fred almost gets Happy Tapioca'd (IYKYK), literary allusions occur every 3 minutes, and one TA truly commits to a terrible-smelling bit.

Thu, 31 Oct 2024 10:00:41 GMT

Episode 10.5: Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island

Thu, 24 Oct 2024 10:00:24 GMT

Join us as we temporarily leave the Mystery Incorporated universe and travel back to 1998 for the acclaimed, darkest peak of the SD franchise. The Scooby Gang, now working adults, are tired of catching men in masks. Be careful what you wish for, guys. Alex and Matt are joined by Wife of the Pod Emi!! (Alex lost his voice from cheering at Evil Dead the Musical the night before this was recorded, sorry for the raspiness.) We talk morally dubious productions of the musical Hairspray, hot hot HOT people on this haunted island, and Scooby being borderline insufferable in this one (sorry).

Episode 9: Battle of the Humungonauts

Thu, 03 Oct 2024 10:00:30 GMT

This one was...just kinda there. The Scooby Gang act stupid with 2 O's. At least their jumpsuits are cool!

Matt is on his honeymoon [!!!] the week this episode airs, and we have no more episodes pre-recorded, so we will be on a slight hiatus next week. But never fear! We have some spooky surprises coming your way in honor of October. Stay tuned, y'all!

Episode 8: The Grasp of the Gnome

Thu, 26 Sep 2024 10:00:51 GMT

Matt gives us an insider's take on the Ren Fair, an evil gnome workshops his evil laugh to perfection, and Fred carves into a living woman with a power tool. For those who aren't in The Know, the boys really break down the genius that is Madame Web (2024). Also, Matt's mic overcompensated on background noise elimination, so I (Alex) would like you all to picture him sitting on a stage in an empty concert hall for this episode.
