    338: The Usual Suspects (with Luke Gordon Field)

    This week we're joined by special guest Luke Gordon Field from The Beaverton (@TheBeaverton) to talk about THE USUAL SUSPECTS. We talk about the iconic twist and try to piece together what actually happened all to answer the question: Was Keyser Soze really all that bad? Or was he just maintaining order in the chaotic and violent criminal underworld?

    It's time for the "Audience Choice" portion of "Kinda Romantic Movie Month" - our Patreon supporters voted and so this week we're discussing the Patrick Dempsey led rom-com MADE OF HONOR.
