Episode description
Welcome back friends! We're continuing our December Buddy Marathon with THE quintessential buddy cop film. The one that built the modern day blueprint—Lethal Weapon. That's right. It's Riggs. It's Murtaugh. And they're just too old for it. Or maybe not old enough? We discuss a lot about Lethal Weapon, including mental health, issues with the script, and much more as we have a surprising reaction to this classic action flick.
