For this episode, and the next several episodes, the Nighthawks Podcast embarks on a great quest that started in 1981.

Harrison Ford stars as Indiana Jones whose first adventure started for the Lost Ark of the Covenant in the Steven Spielberg and George Lucas project Raiders of the Lost Ark. It's a juggernaut of a franchise that just won't die, the supporting cast features Karen Allen, John Rhys-Davies, Paul Freeman, and Alfred Molina.
