Episode 116: Whiplash, Sly, The Killer (2023)

What's New to Netflix

Here’s the last episode of What’s New to Netflix for 2023, and we make it a good one as we discuss all of the new stuff coming out for the holiday season this December.

Then, Miles Teller is a drummer at a prestigious music school. But will his abusive teacher, played by J. K. Simmons, take things too far and cost him his sanity? We find out in Damien Chazelle’s Whiplash from 2014. Next, Sylvester Stallone talks about his upbringing, his career, and his comebacks in the documentary Sly from 2023. And last, David Fincher brings us the story of a hitman who gets revenge when things get too personal in The Killer from 2023.

All of this plus the DC Universe, ‘90s girls wearing glasses, a very particular set of skills, Hallmark Christmas movies, Bikini Kill t-shirts, influencers, Princess Diana, claymation chickens, Bradley Cooper being a Philadelphia Eagles fan, realty reality shows, Zack Snyder chat, and the complete dumbing down of Star Trek.
