E makes McGee take a trip to the upper class and get a little messy post Oscar season. They swap a few dad jokes, stumble through an emotional minefield, and eulogize performances that were taken too soon.

E & McGee grind up a new Marty feature in their pipes and smoke it. They stand in awe of a living legend, lay flowers at the feet of one of the best to ever slice celluloid, and neither confuses “Wakanda” for that “Wakanda” because they’re a lot smarter than that, so there.

E & McGee dig their Maker hooks into a new release this week instead of the usual format. They peer into the oily Harkonnen spas searching for character motivations, kiss the Imperial ring of Christopher Walken, and redraft a wormsign troupe that was right under Denis’ nose.

McGee makes E lower the Venetian blinds for this not-quite-a-noir classic comedy. They talk SNL alums on the big screen, get starstruck by a young Gina Davis, and wonder who else might have worn those extra-short shorts.

E makes McGee welcome a visitor from the real Souf. They grab plates at the fish fry and chop it up about family, folk-lore, and Vicks©. Then spend the episode rambling along a little further because the podding will do us good.

E makes McGee announce himself outside the door before screening this seminal seventies touchstone. They swap jackets to ride Elaine May’s coattails until Beatty comes a’calling, and learn that one of them is Nicky, and the other has a killer Columbo impression.

E makes McGee wade through a debaucherous extravaganza of near biblical proportions. They sing to high heaven the praises of Hurwitz's score & Chazelle’s rhythms. Concoct a ménage à trois between Jack, Manny, & Nelly. And wait on pins and needles for a Bell Howell 35mm 2708...or was it a 2709?
