Dive into your favorite movies with you amazing hosts Tyler & Jonah, as we look into the Judaic connections behind the classics. The two films we will be looking at in this episode are Inglorious Basterds(2009), a fun story of a group of Jews employed by the American military to eliminate as many Nazi's as possible, ultimately ending up with the opportunity to even get rid of the people on top. As well as Whiplash(2014), a movie about a very talented drummer(Miles Teller) who is chosen by the infamously ruthless music instructor(J.K. Simmons) to be in the top music school in the country, but the teacher pushes him to the absolute brink of his potential and even his sanity.

His wife (Sari Lennick) is leaving him, his jobless brother (Richard Kind) has moved in, and someone is trying to sabotage his chances for tenure. Larry seeks advice from three different rabbis, but whether anyone can help him overcome his many afflictions remains to be seen.
