Dan and Frankie Go To Hollywood

After Frankie recently became obsessed with the works of Mr Al Pacino, she discovered the 1989 crime drama Sea of Love and a love affair blossomed. Dan soon checked it out to see what the fuss was about and couldn't believe it had taken him this long to see such a masterpiece. And now, our podcast heroes get to discuss it in depth. Enjoy!

In this rebranded segment (formerly Without Consent), Dan and Frankie make each other watch a movie that is near and dear to them, in this case, the Pacino classic, Carlito's Way, and the sadly prophetic Idiocracy.

Dan and Frankie dive into not only one of the greatest horror films of all time, but one of the best movies ever made - The Exorcist!
