90 – A Seasonal Fight in the War Room
And everyone's favorite Bond song
This week, Katey, Patches, David and Da7e are in the October and Autumn mood. First off, that means that there is a new season of network television invading our sets and streaming services. Why, with so much good TV on, is it so hard to find something worthy of time commitment. Then, after a quick mini-segment about Bond movie theme songs, we talk about seasonal movies and seasonal movie experiences. See Rocky Horror Picture Show with an audience (or don't) and the gang wants to know what YOU watch this spooky season.
