8: The Social Network with Lindsay Street
03/04/2020 Duration: 58minThis latest episode finds Robert and Susie visited by Lindsay from French Toast Sunday and Also Coffee! The trio touch on some celeb beef and COVID-19 and then get into 2010’s The Social Network. Sorkin dialogue! Depositions! Twin humor! Real quick - due to the recording software used, the raw audio of this episode was filled with gaps, which had to be (sometimes hastily) removed. It’s also garbled and choppy in spots. It turned out pretty good in the end but some audio is missing or choppy. Anyways - stay safe! andmoviesforall.blogspot.com

06/02/2020 Duration: 49minComing off a long winter (I mean, real long...and before winter started for sure) break, Robert and Susie are back to talk about 1990's Presumed Innocent, starring Harrison Ford.
