Summary

Brian and Cargill pick the wrong day to float the river and are met with a hungry horde of Piranha. Piggybacking off last week's episode, we discuss one of the very best Jaws rip-offs of all time that was coincidentally released in the Summer of 78 right alongside Jaws 2.

The guys chat about the ravenous swarm of talent that descended upon Texas to accomplish this Corman production. They also chat about Dick Miller, obvious stand-in boobs, and how not to be a drunk.

Grab a raft, a six pack of Lone Star, and enjoy this especially fishy episode!
