Dietrich scandalizes pretty much anyone who knows sports with his claim of one of the best sports films. Josh looks at one of the few television series that can match The Queen's Gambit for style and setting. The pair discuss a controversial science fiction classic, a film that also tackles the intersection of genius and mental health, and Dietrich wraps up with some suggestions should this show have inspired you to pick up a pawn or two. In addition, Josh talks about a series of crime novels set in a different country, Dietrich raves about a French heist series, and the two discuss the latest film from Pixar.
