Summary

It's a super-sized, super-fun, super-technical-glitch-filled CONTEST WINNER SELECTION EPISODE! Tom Horstmann requested that we watch the 1986's The Golden Child, AKA "Don't worry about rewriting the screenplay; Eddie Murphy can improvise any action movie into a comedy!" Meanwhile Stuart uncovers the racist motives of the BK Kids Club, Elliott takes down beloved dead comedian Bill Hicks, and Dan advocates the Morvern style of menswear. Movies recommended in this episode: Man UpThe Hateful EightComing to America

Before we start tonight, just a warning, the sound quality dips for a while in this episode for reasons that will later become clear,

1:15.6

We're a little older, a little wiser.

1:17.6

Why else might we wait?

1:19.6

Well, just for one. We're recording on my new MacBook,

1:26.5

because my old one suddenly has decided that it doesn't want to open up GarageBand.

1:32.1

And we're recording on a totally new version of GarageBand that, like most Apple updates,

1:38.0

is totally different and totally inexplicable to users of the previous version.

1:41.5

So is this not a paid sponsorship plug?

1:44.0

It is not. Let me also complain about how my new MacBook

1:48.9

has only one input. It's the same input you charge from as you use for the USB

1:55.5

port and you have to use a USB port adapter. So luckily this computer was totally charged or
