This week Nikki and Tegan kind of watch Saving Silverman, or Evil Woman depending on where you are. A classic 2000's dumb comedy it wasn't as bad as you'd expect, especially if you like Neil Diamond.

This week Nikki and Tegan almost didn't make it. Jesus' Son (1999), a 'cult classic' drama was easily the worst film they've had to watch yet. And Tegan tries to explain the Minecraft movie!
