This week, Tiny and I review the Bryan Cranston, Kevin Hart comedy/drama The Upside. But first, we share some good news regarding Mike and myself, share a promo for a new podcast from our friends at Geeking in Indiana’s Family of Podcasts, and go through some news items. Later, in Potpourri, we talk about If Beale Street Could Talk, Neal Brennan’s 3 Mics comedy special, and Free Solo.

This week’s stinger comes from our Patreon-exclusive recording: 014 - OV B-Roll - Tiny’s Birthday, IMDb Freedive, Matt Orders Pizza, So I Married an Axe Murderer, Blockers, Searching, and “Capri Sun on Tap!” - Jan 15, 2019
