Episode description

This week, Gavia and Morgan venture into new territory with the 2013 Michael Bay film "Pain and Gain," a crime film based on the true story of a misbegotten kidnapping and extortion carried out by a collection of inept criminals played here by Mark Wahlberg, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, and Anthony Mackie. Topics include the parallel career paths of Wahlberg and Johnson, what exactly constitutes a "Michael Bay movie," the ethics of telling this kind of story about real people, and more.
