Note: We have faced some technical issues before, during, and after the recording. We recorded this episode while Brandyn was on his way back home and taking subways. You are about to hear some roughed audio quality.

Brandyn from The Most Important Election of Our Lives is back for this Halloween special episode. We will be talking about one movie of Brandyn's choice, and it is Tarsem Singh's trippy psychological thriller The Cell, starring Jennifer Lopez, Vince Vaughn, and Vincent D'Onofrio. We have gone on several tangents, explored the theme of empathy, depiction of mental illness in the media, shoddy CGIs, talked about the Parajayan influences in Tarsem Singh's works, Meredith's love for the Brothers Quay, and more!
