Tim & Tay talk masculinity (toxic and otherwise) in this episode on Richard Linklater's ostensible baseball movie, Everybody Wants Some!!

Synopsis
Everybody Wants Some!! runs the course of a long weekend before the start of the fall semester at a Texas college in 1980. Over the course of the three days, freshman pitcher Jake meets his teammates, competes with virtually everyone he meets, and pursues his crush, an auburn-haired theatre major named Beverly.

Starring Blake Jenner and Zoey Deutch, Everybody Wants Some!! was directed by Richard Linklater and released March 30, 2016.

Everybody Wants Some!! is available to rent online.
