Another week and more things to discuss! 

First up, it seems that the complaining about the age of these electors falls on deaf ears. Mitch McConnell who has been the focus of these age ideals found himself in a predicament this past week when he froze up at the podium and people were unsure what to think. Mitch ended up being fine but it was really odd and re-ignited this idea that there migh tneed to be term limits and age limits on some of our older nominees wach election cycle. 

Next, there are some amazing movies that you could pair together, but the best things happen naturally. Well Mark and Jason Kull are here to break down which weekend in movie history had the best two movie tandem release. Maybe it was a weekend in the 1990's during the summer...or maybe a thanksgiving release weekend in the 2000's... we have a Ranker list of the best and we are gonna figure out who reigns supreme for a double movie release in history...

That Ranker review comes on the heal of the release of Barbie and Oppenheimer. Which is the focal point of our last thing. Is the Barbie movie a bad thing to see cause it's about Barbie? Why are so many conservatives worried about going to a movie they can just ignore and not pay to go see? Well in their world you have to have things to complain about, and if everyone is fine with Barbie, then it's not manly or cool enough for republicans. So of course it becomes point of contention, but like many of their things...does it have legs? Nope!

Drew Pinson is back to hang out with Mark and Jason and this time he brings some spicy music takes with him...

First up, Mark and Jason welcome Drew back to the show and the gentlmen discuss how things been in the world of music on Drews podcast Notes & Letters. Drew then asks the guys what is the best cover song that they ever heard? And what was the worst cover song they have ever heard, conversely.  Next up Mark realizes that him and Jason are underutilized in the word of politics and that Fox News could use guest appearances from Mark and Jason and it would boost their ratings on a national look. 

Next up the guys discuss some politics and what is going on in the world! Joe Biden and the Biden campaign decided to strike a littel early for campaigning and put out their first video of the 2024 election. It featured MTG just speaking about Joe and Kamala and the things they are doing, then it says they approved the message. Castrating any value in MTG, they used her word sagainst her and it was Amazing! And then Jason Aldean finds himself in a bit of controversy from his song "Try that in a small town" in reference to anything where the rest of the world is having the issues. So in his small towns, everyone knows each other so nobody does anything. In big cities things aren't quaint and easy. Though Jason thinks its because small towns talk tough. The guy figure out, Jason is not from a too small of a town and things are the same everywhere all the time...some people are just more prejudice. 

Finally, another Ranker review comes to pass. This time around there are HUGE movie franchizes that exist and they bring tons of joy to the world. But is your franchise you are bought in on, the same quality as your friends favorite. Well Ranker had them listed 1-10 and we decided to find out which ones matter and which ones just don't. And this one did not disappoint! Tune and find out which Action Movie Franchise stands above all others in Best action Movie Franchise of all time!

This past week, Sarah decided to put out some personal texts of her discussions when breaking up with Jonah and claimed he was abusive. Mark and the gents read the text message that set the internet on fire and discuss Jonah and the relationship. Was he an abuser, or was this honest discussion.
