This week, Sarah and MJ follow Brody's departure from his home to a fateful encounter with a corpse on the beaches of Amity. They have a revelation about the recurrence of the color yellow, discuss what it's like for Brody to feel "in his element" with an investigation again and over analyze the famous billboard for the annual Amity Regatta race. Also, MJ has a chip on his shoulder about being called Michael Jordan and Michael Jackson and Sarah nearly derails the podcast thinking about the logistics of how to properly arrest a shark.

This week, Sarah and MJ guide you through our first encounter with the everyman hero of the film, Chief Martin Brody. They talk about how the script expertly sets up his backstory and the sense of foreboding that comes along with the audience having prior knowledge about what's in store for his work day. Also, they find a lot of significance surrounding Michael Brody's injury and discover that the broken swingset is a metaphor for things to come!

This week, Sarah and MJ are joined by the wonderful Tom Martyn (@TheWellDrinker) to talk about the untimely demise of Chrissy Watkins. They discuss the film's balance of the tranquil and the primal, the importance of the "first kill," Steven Spielberg's dark side, and Tom brings us this week's mind blowing revelation.
