Out with the old, in with the new(ish)! An old guest, David Bax of Battleship Pretension, stops by to discuss a new theme and filmmaker - Peter Weir. After some hockey talk, the boys get into a discussion over the traits of the Australian filmmaker, including elements of mysticism, suppressive systems, and an examination of the conflict between Western European and native cultures. The recommendations: Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975), The Mosquito Coast (1986), and Master and Commander (2003).
