On the 400th episode of Piecing It Together, Jason Harris joins me at Downtown Cinemas to talk about The 4:30 Movie! Kevin Smith's latest isn't exactly a return to form, but probably the best thing he's done in over a decade. Joe Black also joins me for some puzzle pieces and his thoughts. Puzzle pieces include Adventureland, Cinema Paradiso, Superbad and Licorice Pizza.

As always, SPOILER ALERT for The 4:30 Movie and the movies we discuss!

Written by Kevin Smith

Directed by Kevin Smith

Starring Austin Zajur, Siena Agudong, Reed Northup, Nicholas Cirillo, Ken Jeong
