Can watching a movie make you smart? No. But it can trick you into feeling smart and that's the magic of cinema. This week we're joined by notable comedian and Sam coworker Sophie Buddle to talk all things about the king of making people feel smart: Christopher Nolan. Plus, we unpack which actresses are gay guy actresses and which aren't, what it means to view America from an outside perspective, and how LA people are having their cake and eating it too.

Also see us LIVE in Chicago on October 6th and New York on October 12th! Tickets at linktree.com/straightiolab.
