On this week's episode, Mike and Steven continue Stories of Summer Month with The Way Way Back from 2013. They discuss how the film's humor and heart make it stand out among other coming-of age stories, what a narcissistic jerk Trent (Steve Carell) is, how writers/directors Jim Rash and Nat Faxon made this right after winning an Oscar for The Descendants, and much more.
And in the news segment this week:
