In the second episode of All Mike'd Up, the Mikes dedicate the show to listener mail—reading and responding to letters from several friends of the pod. The discussion covers everything from movie rating philosophy and steak portion sizes to toxic masculinity and the challenges of translating Japanese film genres to the West. Along the way, they debate anonymity on the internet, nerd out over Paul Schrader's Mishima, and digress into personal Letterboxd rankings and the "vibes" factor in movie ratings.
