Ian and Pat McDonald raise a scoop of freezer-burnt ice cream to the most important women in their lives with a look at Albert Brooks' 1996 comedy, Mother!
Brooks stars as John Henderson, a sci-fi novelist who moves in with his mother, Beatrice (Debbie Reynolds), after finalizing divorce #2. His plan: figure out what it is about his own strained family relationships that prevent him from finding a compatible partner.
In this loving and (mostly) reverent review, the guys talk about why MOTHER took awhile to grow on them; debate whether or not Mother's Day is an actual holiday, and open up about why their own moms mean so much to them!
Plus: Ian's Rob Morrow impression will send you hurtling toward the "Volume" button!
