On this bonus episode Joe and Calvin share their thoughts about an amazing pro football playoffs and the upcoming big game (man these lawyers got bots on bots, can't be too careful). We share big game memories and talk about our favorite moments of games past and yes, we each make a pick! Don't forget we will be covering Shaft (the original) on Thursday evening so be on the lookout for that! #TheOpenTabsPodcast appreciates all of you!

The year 1998 was a simpler time. When There's Something About Mary was released we were still using VCRs as our main mode of repeat viewing of films. Sure we had cable, but Blockbuster probably had it. There's Something About Mary was probably the last big Blockbuster Video movie. On this episode of #theopentabspodcast we discuss The Farrelly Brother's breakout hit starring Cameron Diaz, Ben Stiller, Matt Dillon, Lee Evans, and of course the great Chris Elliott. The laughs come a mile a minute in this film and we can barely contain ourselves as we talk about our memories of the film. What a time in our lives.
