This week we're grabbing a Diablo sandwich and a Dr. Pepper as John Cribbs from the film website The Pink Smoke stops by to watch the Burt Reynolds/Sally Field classic Smokey and the Bandit for the first time. 

Join us as we discuss the ups-and-downs in Burt's career, the brilliance of Jackie Gleason, what our trucker handles would be and much more. 

Follow John on Twitter and check out his writing over on The Pink Smoke. Also check out the Pure Cinema Podcast and John talking about The Burbs on Just the Discs. And if you'd like to support The Pink Smoke on Patreon, you can do that here

Read the Vanity Fair article about Burt selling his Valhalla estate which (naturally) has a bar called "Burt's Place."

Trucker movie fans will want to check out Mike Sacks' hilarious parody book Stinker Lets Loose
