Longest break yet. Whatever, y’all. Nobody pays us to do this shit, and nobody ever will! But we’re happy to be back.

Since we took so long to get around to things, there’s not much focus to this one. We talk politics and whatnot, specifically about John McCain’s complicated legacy, before discussing the upcoming A Star is Born remake, the (now-scrapped) new Popular Film Oscar category, and Tom recommends all the 2018 films he saw in August, before Phil gives a fitting tribute to the late, great, Aretha.
