Ladies & Gentlemen, don't cry because it's over...cry because it happened! Wait...I don't think that's correct, but you get what we're trying to say here...this is it, Episode 20, the GRAND FINALE of Season 1 and we're going out with a Michael Bay level BANG!
In this finale episode, we take a trip down memory lane and see just how much Kasen was paying attention over the last 20 episodes...with a huge prize on the line, can he answer enough Hollywood Week trivia questions to claim victory, or will he brutally embarrass himself and possibly drop out of med school to re-evaluate his life...LET'S FIND OUT!!
We also drop our final 2 reviews of the season...the Disney/Pixar adventure "Onward", and the Denis Villeneuve powerhouse "Incendies"...one of these movies features magical creatures, spells & enchantments, and the bottom half of a dead father...the OTHER movie features a harrowing journey through the Middle East in the 1970's...which is which???? Only one way to find out...
Everyone's favorite part of the show has been amplified to GRAND FINALE levels...The Mailbag is back and it's out of control...we tackled as many questions as possible from our fantastic listeners, and we gotta give them all a shoutout!
