BLAZING SADDLES / 42: Discrimination
November 12, 2018 04:27 - 1 hour - 65.3 MBWe do that voodoo that we do so well in this one.

We also go into "Daredevil" season 3, for all those who haven't abandoned the MTVU (that's not a thing). The two feature films are very different and we reach some interesting conclusions as to who handles the subject matter better. Don't be racist. Do rate and re...
MOANA / THE RIVER WILD: Rafting Adventures
November 06, 2018 02:31 - 1 hour - 78.2 MBWe have a lot of salty Bacon this week. Before we discuss THE RIVER WILD and MOANA, we get into some ill-advised film follow ups, namely the GLADIATOR sequel and WILLY WONKA prequel. Also, "The Walking Dead" is bad.

While that is a major argument to this week's ep, we first discuss Sesame Street, Netflix/Marvel shows, and a brief review of the new HALLOWEEN.
