Even for a sad-man-movie podcast, Akira Kurosawa's "Ikiru" from 1952 is really, really sad! But that doesn't mean we didn't have a good time talking about it.

In this episode, Riddy and Tom talk about the continuing relevance of this Japanese classic; saddest karaoke songs; $3,850 hedonistic binges; the similarities between "Ikiru" and "Parks and Recreation"; Immaculate Grids; personal public works projects; and hats!

Surprise, everybody! Tom finally relented and you can now follow us on Instagram @cheerupbuddypod.
