S6 PREMIERE OF "A BIGGER BOAT"

Season six will focus on the SSCU, the Steven Spielberg Cinematic Universe. Spielberg,  a director who once reigned over Hollywood but has since directed himself into respectable obsolescence has had as many cinematic lives as Batman, a new version trotted out every so often with mixed results. Our guests will walk us through their experiences with Beardo's films and what Spielberg meant then and what he means now.

Co-host Ken picked this inaugural episode consisting of RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK (1981) and KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL (2008) as his best and worst Spielbergs. 

Raiders is both one of the most enduring and best-looking films of Spielberg's long career.  Paired with the misbegotten, foul-looking Crystal Skull (which made more than any other Indiana Jones movie - people, c'mon!), is a stunning double bill. We'll chart how the mighty king of popular culture has fallen from the tippy top of Devils Tower to whatever the hell was happening in Ready Player One with some surprising theories.

Jack and Thomas moderate a lively convo to kick this season off!
