    About this Episode

    We spend most of our intro this week taking a nostalgic look back at computers and music, while also touching on the success of Deadpool and other things. At 27:50 we take a rare look into the dark world of politics (God help us all). At 45:25 we make a brief trek into the sports world to take a look at how new BFFs David Ortiz and David Price are getting along as new teammates. And at 50:08 we move into our final segment, a look at movies during which it's ok for men to not only tear up, but outright cry.

There have been lots of good movies and a full calendar of sports championships that we've missed. We spend 90+ minutes catching up on everything, as well as throwing in a little workplace etiquette session at the end.
