We are back to our movie swapping ways. This week, it’s 2 films that don’t seem to have much in common, but have a lot of similarities the deeper you go!

There’s Sugar, a creative and sad character piece about a young baseball player making his way from the Dominican Republic to America. Then there’s Rounders, a fun Matt Damon project about how to beat John Malkovich at poker. And someone is sporting an odd Russian accent...

Finally, we give a live reaction to the trailer for the final chapter of Stranger Things.

The Batman is a big deal. So big that we needed to bring on guest star Caleb Johnson to help break down the movie.

Some Marvel and Star Wars talk finds its way into the conversation, too. We decide once and for all how good of a movie Attack of the Clones is.

Today’s big question: When does a show know what it is?

Phil’s discusses How I Met Your Father for WAYWA and how it can be rewarding to stick with something that starts out so hopelessly not good.
