Episode 242 – Surprisingly Relevant and Respectful

This Week: Kevin invites Devindra Hardawar from Slashfilmcast into the Magical Studio in the Sky. In a strange twist of events, the conversation goes first into a discussion of technology, then into a uncharacteristically relevant and respectful talk about the movies of the week. Kevin and Devindra chat about the odd paths of David Gordon Green’s career with The Sitter and roll their eyes at New Year’s Eve. Then they lament Kevin not loving Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy before moving into the infamous (and unnaturally clean) middle segment to talk box office and answer a Facebook question. After laying out a Fat Guy Five, Kevin and Devindra rattle through the DVD Rundown and send the audience on its way into the great beyond.
