The gang folds some origami this week as they review Leika Studio's underseen animated adventure movie, Kubo and the Two Strings. Is it underseen for a reason? Or does this one need some revisionist history? No Tyler on today's episode, but he does manage to call in to the show. Listen along, then decide for yourself whether Kubo is worth your time
