Phil and Dave revisit 2019's 1917. While the shallow characters keep them 6 feet away from the heart of the story, the visuals are a treat for the eyes and are just enough to keep the film moving towards the climatic ending.

Your B-team podcasters return to discuss 2010's A-Team. The plan: to figure out why this mess of a movie started out as an entertaining movie to Phil only to discover by the end that nothing makes sense. Dave appreciated the 2nd watch more than the 3rd which somehow makes no sense either.

Phil and Dave spend 60 minutes revisiting 2002's 25th Hour. Phil loves what feels like a brash post 9/11 New York and Dave gushes about so many of the performances. This movie continues to deliver the goods so many years later and this podcast came so close to never happening.
