    Minute 104: The Stars of Tomorrow
    In our one hundred and fourth, and final, Minute, the movie is over. Your Mystic Pizza pals, David Hulford and John Windsor, look back at the film and the podcast that was. Topics include the Bechdel test, upcoming Robert Zemeckis film Welcome to Marwen, and Windsor's weird obsession with the 1995 film Casper. It has been a real and true pleasure recording this show for all of you, and we're proud of what we've made here. Thank you for listening.
