Justin is back on the show and it's his pick this week. The Great White Hype is a somewhat under the radar satire of the state of boxing and sports in general in the 90's. Can a great Samuel L. Jackson performance lift this movie from silly comedy to something special? Will Jake and Justin even stay remotely on topic about the film? The answer to both of those questions is probably no, but everyone is gonna have a fun time anyway. Check it out!

Jake is joined by first time by new guest Malakai to try and break down what the trailers try to sell as some kind of European crime thriller, but what actually turns out to be more of a withdrawn, slow-burn family drama about a nomadic group of people who live on the outskirts of society.

We are kicking it way old school today with this actual classic. Based on a novel of the same name that came out just a year before the movie, a film Tyrone Power used all of his (pun intended) power to get made, this twisty, psychological noir that might have been too hot for audiences of the time.
