Welcome!
This week Austin and Albert discuss trailers! Or, more specifically when they LIE to you. These can range anywhere from small white lies like misrepresenting who the star is, right down to outright telling the audience that the film is about something it's not. Join us as we poke and prod the weird world of movie marketing!
