In the most random episode of Watch.Read.Listen., we start 2016 right as we are joined by David’s best friend Justin K. Goodpasture, who moved from Houston to Seattle relatively recently. In This Week, we discuss how people actually do discuss the weather in real life, how Hugh Jackman makes Wolverine’s overuse not annoying, and how baldness is now a plot twist. In the main bit, we wander through a series of topics as this episode is just friends talking about stuff. Enjoy!
