Episode description

On this week's show, we're taking a deeply questionable trip through the streets of our hometown with 1988's Short Circuit 2, directed by Kenneth "big TV guy" Johnson.

  • Is this movie racist? (Spoiler: Yes. Yes, it is.) 
  • Who's got the worst fake Scottish accent in the history of cinema?
  • How come Steve Guttenberg and Ally Sheedy didn't wanna be in this one?
  • Why did Neth spend a good part of his childhood thinking he was in 1992's Emilio Estevez stinker Freejack
  • Precisely how little effort went into trying to disguise Toronto as NYC?
