On this episode, Mike and Mike discuss 1971's The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight, a mafia slapstick starring Jerry Orbach, Leigh Taylor-Young, and a young Robert De Niro as a kleptomaniac cyclist-turned-fake-priest. The hosts discuss mafia nicknames, lion abuse, and the film's baffling attempt at satire.
