CAN YOU DIG IT, listeners? This week, returning guest Julia of Mercy Street Theatre Company bops with us as we watch Walter Hill's 1979 cult gang thriller The Warriors! A pulpy, disco-tinged Greek epic about a beleaguered street gang from Coney Island lost on the wrong side of town after being framed for killing a prominent gang leader, the movie's long on style and short on complexity.

We found quite a bit to talk about, from apocalypse theories to the unfortunate Director's Cut. Throw on your tight blue jeans and brown leather vest, 'cause we're ready to play-ee-ay with our custom cocktail and drinking game!
