0:00.0	The Bill Simmons podcast is brought to you by Fandall Sportsbook.
0:03.7	We're also brought to you by the Ringer podcast Network, where you can find me on two other
0:09.5	podcasts, the Prestige TV podcast, we are breaking down task every Sunday night right after
0:14.8	it runs on HBO.
0:16.2	Fifth episode is, it's really something.
0:20.0	So we are on right after you can find it, download it,
0:23.1	watch it on Spotify on YouTube, wherever you get it. Rewatchables, we're doing Redford
0:27.7	Month. And on Monday, we're doing Jeremiah Johnson, one of my dad's two favorite movies.
0:35.5	It is unlike, it might be the ultimate Mountain Man movie that's
0:39.9	ever been made. It's one of Redford's, I think, best performances. It's a good one for his
0:45.9	catalog, which we talked about on the podcast, but that's actually on Tooby. So if you want to watch

And I'm so glad it's running because there's some rewatchable movies that we want to do, and they just don't exist. I don't know what happens to them, like the rights get screwed up or whatever happens to some of these movies like the share thing or reconcilable differences.
1:29.1	Kiss of Death with Nick Cage.
1:30.4	Can't be found, but there's a million of these.
1:32.6	And it might be one of my crusades in 2026 to get these movies back, back in the eyes and
1:39.6	ears of people that should be watching them.
1:41.9	And more importantly for the rewatchables.
1:43.6	All right, before we talk
1:44.2	about what's coming up on the podcast niners rams tonight so this was on during the red sox game
