They've mentioned it quite a few times but this week sees Nathan and Brendan really dig into the movies that they were definitely too young to watch as children but did anyway.

Nathan and Brendan also reveal the...

It's quite possibly the most cuckoo bananas movie that Nathan and Brendan have ever covered so luckily they had some help along the way in the form of Kaleigh Stultz as well as Steve & Izzy from the great podcast "Everything I Learned from Movies." The five (!) of them talk about all sorts of things in this crazy film from the honour-system zoo that exists in California, dickfights, corpses being...
