Now, you may be asking, "Hey, wait a minute, this movie wasn't nominated for any Razzies! What are you tryin' to pull?!" And you're right, it wasn't. But please, put down that knife for a second and allow us to suggest that maybe Tom Hooper (y'know, the director of CATS) might not be great at making movie musicals and that maybe this movie is overrated. Our special guest, Caleb Feigles from the Making a Martini podcast, can't stand it and wanted to talk about it with us. So we decided to merge our formats for this very special episode -- we break down and fix Les Mis, and Caleb makes us cocktails inspired by the film! That's right, we're drunk for the vast majority of this episode, and shit gets silly. Join us for stories from Jack & Caleb's college days, delicious libations, the start of a Wolverine fanfic that would make Deadpool blush, and rampant mispronunciation of Eddie Redmayne's name.

CW: alcohol, mentions of suicide, a horse noise

The cocktail: Les Liberté (equal parts gin and tonic water, poured over cucumber slices and garnished with fresh, slapped mint leaf)
