Joel Murphy and his wife Molly recently had a date night that included a retro arcade and German food. Joel shares the details of this very romantic night out with his co-host Lars Perwinkle.

They also discuss the plot of the new film Yesterday, which is set in a world where only one man remembers The Beatles. They workshop better pitches for the film.

What happened to Big Vinegar? What is Joel’s go-to classic arcade game? What if no one remembered Weird Al? The answers to these questions and more are on this week’s show.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “Change” by The Paint
