Welcome to the Upon Closer Inspection reboot! Host Allison Tweedie returns with new co-host Kyle Carpenter to talk about Courage Mountain, the gritty WWI Heidi of The Swiss Alps reboot that NOBODY asked for, "starring" Charlie Sheen! Topics include:

  • The first time Kyle remembers his mother LYING TO HIS FACE
  • The inappropriate age difference between Sheen and his young co-star, Juliette Catton (they were ten years apart, with Catton only being 14 at time of filming!)
  • Why so many "classic" children's films depict orphans in misery
  • Heidi's heroic "no child left behind" policy (SPOILER: she leaves every child behind)

It's a hilarious chat about a movie nobody has seen. But maybe you should? No, you definitely shouldn't. But give this episode a listen!
