“Three teens get powers. One takes it too far.”

As the countdown to the podcast’s finale continues, Donnell and Robert dive intoChronicle, a unique blend of superhero origin story and found footage thriller. But this isn’t your typical cape-and-mask affair. It’s messy, grounded, and if you ask Donnell, probably how powers wouldreallyplay out if a bunch of angsty teens suddenly had them.

In this episode, the hosts break down whyChroniclewas such a surprise success, how it handled power, trauma, and adolescence, and why it felt so different from its superhero peers. They also discuss the film’s cast, including early Michael B. Jordan, and how this movie was a flash in the pan that never got the franchise it could’ve spawned.
