In the first of a new feature for season 2, Ash and Brad take thematically linked films and discuss them in a bumper episode. Of course, when posed the question of which one to lead with, Brad decided to pick a weird one but somehow, we managed to find the crossing point of THE SANDLOT and KIDS. How do these films thematically align? Why didn't the Sandlot Kids just knock on the door? How many pieces of furniture has Brad broken during FIFA induced rage? Find out in this very odd episode of Ex-Rental.
