In this week's episode Dave & Jess watch Cobweb on Hulu, which they pair with a Horse Neck cocktail.  This movie had a limited theatrical release before its streaming debut - is it a criminally-underseen classic, or was it dumped on Hulu for a reason?

The film stars Lizzy Caplan and Antony Starr, leading to the hosts' extended discussion about Lizzy Caplan's previous roles, and Antony Starr's work in The Boys.  There's a Busey spawn in this film, which begs the question of how 80-year old Gary Busey has a young child. 

Other topics discussed include relevant episodes of The Simpsons that seem to have inspired this film, along with another film called Barbarian that bears more than a few similarities to this movie.  

Jess also reveals the struggle of working with AI-generated art and its racist outputs, and discusses the Bitter Truth set she got that inspired this week's cocktail recipe.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
