After a brief discussion about the tragic loss of Chadwick Boseman, Bob and Stew tackle their first double feature in this episode, debating the merits of two Safdie brothers' films — the 2017 Robert Pattinson crime thriller Good Time and Adam Sandler's 2019 dramatic showcase Uncut Gems. Among the questions tackled are: Is Pattinson the best actor to ever play Batman? Did Sandler deserve all that awards-season hype last year? And how is it that Lakeith Stanfield is able to make everything he's involved with better? Stew also unexpectedly drops some synthwave knowledge, and, if you listen closely, you may also hear him propose the notion that Raul Julia deserved an Oscar nomination for Street Fighter. This episode contains major spoilers for both films.
