Mike and Dan respond to a listener who urges them to watch and discuss Seconds (1966), John Frankenheimer's thriller about a man who attempts to remake his identity. They talk about what constitutes a person and how we build our identities in ways that defy simple lists of characteristics. Dan brings up Hamlet and Citizen Kane; Mike brings up Hereditary. Finally, the two are joined in a bonus segment by Tim, the very listener who suggested the movie, to see what he thinks of their conversation. So let us know what you'd like us to watch and maybe we'll have you on the show!
