Grab your standard issue FBI revolver, ‘70s station wagon, and strange metal orb, this episode is a wild ride. This week, Geoff and Justin have just returned from watching the buzzy Oz Perkins film Longlegs on opening weekend, and are ready to talk scary movies, Nic Cage, and complicated parental relationships. The movies are back, baby! Also on the menu for this week’s news-packed episode is the Gladiator II x Wicked double feature, a new album from our girl Sabrina Carpenter, and what is SURELY the biggest news story of the week—the dismissal of Alec Baldwin’s manslaughter case! What assassination attempt?!
