Wonka was fun, but we're taking the show in a more serious direction this episode. Jason, with the Smoking and Drinking in Space podcast, joins us to talk his favorite film, Dead Poets Society.

As we were preparing to have Jason on the show we realized a scheduling mistake was made. We can't prove it, but pretty sure Morgan sabotaged the schedule to crash the show with her own film, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
Join us as we use pure imagination to valuate this 1971 musical, and in the process, reveal the true villain of the film. Or as Joe refers to him......human garbage.
