Episode 63 - F/X

Two guys tackle the odd, confusing, and overall interesting of eclectic films.

TV & Film

It's the end of the world (and the pod) as we know it, and we feel fine! AJ and Mike finish their run on the wheel of The Hamster Factor by talking about a movie with equal parts disaster, sci-fi, and Nicolas Cage schlock, 2009's "Knowing."
Thank you all for your support across 3 years and nearly 80 episodes. It's been a pleasure to keep the wheel spinning with installments that ran the gamut of film, and we look forward to hopefully re-entering the cage (not the Cage) somewhere in the future.

Episode 76 - Bully (2001)
