Joel Murphy and Andy McIntyre watch maligned movies and find their silver linings. For the month of April, they are watching films that killed careers.

This week, Joel and Andy watch the 2002 remake of Rollerball, which ended Chris Klein’s stint as a leading man and sent director John McTiernan to prison.

Theme Song: “Bankin’” by Bronson Scott

They also discuss their aversion to attending marches, the Nintendo Switch and a grandmother who has mistakenly been praying to the wrong entity.
