NOBODY, ZACK SNYDER'S JUSTICE LEAGUE, VIOLATION, BAD TRIP and more
Chuck and I get off on a few tangents spurred by the films releasing this week. From the theatrical release of NOBODY, starring Bob Odenkirk, to the Netflix release of BAD TRIP starring Erik Andre, Tiffany Haddish, and Lil Rel Howrey, and everything in between, Chuck and I steer you in the right direction of what to spend your time and money on! And hopefully we will make you laugh as much as we did!
