One of Aaron's favorite features is TOMBSTONE -- it's also one of the Westerns Lauren can actually stand to watch. So, why don't you give this episode a listen, pardner? You're a daisy if you do!

Let's talk about DICK...TRACY, that is! They're on their way...to discuss a movie that has played a vital role in the lives of both of them for pretty much 3 decades.

After a not-so-brief hiatus, Lauren and Aaron are back, baby, to discuss one of the hottest, horniest movies of the year so far: SINNERS!
