Episode description

Quit Monkey(Man)-ing around and GET A NEW EPISODE IN YOUR EARS!!!!

“John Wick in Mumbai”, you say? Ticket SOLD! The Watch/Skip’ers cock their critic guns and suit up for the action vengeance, social commentary-tinged directorial debut of noted, SAG and BAFTA award winning actor Dev Patel. Is it the “audacious” film debut that stunned SXSW audiences or is it a meta-cloned, US-Bollywood inspired- actioner-masquerading-as-a-Bollywood-US inspired-actioner, film directing debut that is beautiful but flat arthouse action? Where Emcee and Cupcake fall on this may surprise you (Hint: when the hosts talk more about behind the scenes than the actual film itself…there may be…..issues.) But first Cupcake reminisces about his bouncing, flipping college days, and then Emcee plusses a fun new game in the spirit of “Q and Alex”. 

Speaking of "Q and Alex": IT’S BACK! And the new format is a double-double. Not THAT kind of double-double, sicko! Emcee has two questions, Cupcake has two questions. Get to know your hosts in a unique fashion! 

STOP YOUR WORKOUT MONTAGE AND LISTEN!!!!!!
