We also talk about seeing Fallout together; Jake Johnson delivering the best line of The Mummy; Billy advances his Cruise-hates-Cavill theory (Tom Cruise’s slander lawyer: don’t @ us); how the best Brooklyn Nine-Nine cold open is tied to the relationships in Fallout; BILLY DOESN’T WEAR FEDORAS; roundabouts are the worst; “little BOY from U.N.C.L.E.,” thought Tom Cruise; Ethan vs. Superman; so much more!

CORRECTIONS:

The Mission: Impossible theme IS based on morse code. Check it out: https://www.techly.com.au/2016/03/31/did-you-know-theres-a-secret-code-hidden-in-the-classic-mission-impossible-theme/.
Fallout is NOT Tom Cruise’s highest grossing film ever. While it is the highest grossing M:I entry, the highest Tom Cruise film is actually War of the Worlds (lifetime gross of $234,280,354).
That fancy French greenhouse is actually Le Grand Palais, built as part of the Universal Exposition, a world fair that occurred in 1900. Le Grand Palais is also built in the style of Beaux-Arts architecture. The more you know!
