This episode is full of content! We talk Heretic, A Man on the Inside, Cabaret and Mama I'm a Big Girl Now, The Penguin, and the Arcane finale!

The show opens with just Kevin and Lauren and Lauren takes the lead talking about the new thriller Heretic. It's not quite horror but it definitely has a solid creep factor! High Grant is a bona fide pyscho and the film itself does a lot to make one question religion. Not for the faint of heart!

Kevin lightens things up with A Man on the Inside on Neflix. This is the story of a man who's a little lost in his life finding a job as a private investigator inside an old folks home. He doesn't find criminals but rather finds himself and some new friends along the way. Ted Danson is great in this "based on a true story" tale of love, life, and loss.

Even though Andrew joins the fray, Kevin has Lauren take the lead once more with a couple of great Broadway shows she saw this week. First up is Cabaret starring Adam Lambert and Auli'i Cravalho of Moana fame. It's a great show in a great venue and definitely worth checking out. Next she geeks out a bit over Mama I'm a Big Girl Now which is a show by 3 of the founding members of Hairspray. It's a ton of fun to see how far these women have come and the storys and songs they share!

Finally inviting Andrew into the fray, Kevin ask Lauren for her take on The Penguin, which she finally finished. It comes as no shock that she loved it as much as Kevin and Andrew did but it's always nice to get a fresh perspective on an excellent series.

Lauren makes her exit and Kevin and Andrew go full bore on everything Arcane, including the big finale. Kevin absolutely loved it and Andrew is maybe a hair less bowled over (though he's come around a bit since recording) but they both do thoroughly enjoy the show and, if nothing else, they rave about the visuals. If you haven't seen Arcane (are you dead?!?!?) then get over to Netflix and watch it all ASAP!
