Big Fat Liar a genuinely fun time at da moviesh! Outstanding Bynes and Giamatti performance, Sandra Oh is in it!

Sarah Farrell

I’m only 24 and even I felt old listening to that podcast clip haha

Tashmon Dimps

This episode made me look for “The Jinx” to rewatch and I had no idea that season 2 was airing today!

Thomas Doyle

great ep enjoying the patreon feed so much! thanks!

Only extremely loosely related but what David’s describing in the opening about “what if everyone’s emails leaked” is the plot of one third of my favorite movies from 2021, Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy (dir. Hamaguchi), and I’d like to lightly recommend patrons check it out!

Sarah W.

Loved this ep

Peter Mack

The last 5 mins is adorable.

Tom

Not essential. If the ep intrigues you, you can always go back and watch the doc

Bon Champion

The first TMNT is a 10/10 masterpiece and I hope they invite Tatiana to watch it with them. She knows it by heart.

Jeff Brax

that or in the box office game when he describes a performance as "quiet and nuanced" and it's literally William Shatner throwing bags of ham at the screen

Jon Ryves

Just fyi I would love to pay some Republic credits for a shirt that says “PAUL GIAMATTI MARIA MENOUNOS DRY BONES”

Rad Rodge

I do enjoy it every time David describes a person or a filmmaking process as “normal with no weird stuff going on”

Rad Rodge

*Ben Hosley voice* little fucker

Jon Ryves

Pakula was in March Madness so I have some doubts

Jon Ryves

There is a lot of bone on this meat. It is a masterclass in filibustering. This is why we are here.

Green Book 2: Still Bookin'

W. Fry

I’ve never wanted a Blank Check video feed more than when David yelled “a knuckle SANDWICH”

fartinscorcese

To be clear I am also one, Fennessey just sort of seems like our liege lord

Rad Rodge

I think this is a good guess, Fennessey is the Pakula Enjoyer of all enjoyers

Rad Rodge

Still bookin’!

Scott Carberry

I was born in Pierre! Hiya, South Dakota pal!

Taman Eggers

They need to Patreon Red Dot right

Will Rogers

From listening to Eminem, I presume

Mike Ostrov

Is watching the doc essential for this, or will the episode explain it?

Hangtime

Alan Pakula probs

Isaiah Bornman

Have never been more proud or thankful to be a Patron. Last hour is iconic

"You never showed me Terminator. That's not my fault."

Jules

Alec Baldwin podcast voice sounds like Dan Carlin of Hardcore History

jahr

It’s funny how much dune content I’ve absorbed and they’re just now starting to talk about it cause they record so far in advance. I welcome more tbc

Blake Anderson

"Mac Daddy" is killing me..

Billnetherlands

Still shocked that when David says "First Anthony Pellicano, a little brief", Griff doesn't call it The Pellicano Brief.

Yoann

Peter Angelinas

Any thoughts on what director they were alluding to being inspired to cover by a Big Pic episode?

Harrison Koford

I want a judge jeudy-esque show but it's Ben on mushrooms making judgements and occasionally riffing on buried jeans.

Ryan Gunn

“I move for a bad court thingy!”

Manish Agarwal

I just finished watching this last night and can’t wait to hear their thoughts. What a special kind of piece of shit.

Jeremiah Drueke

Great episode! The second David said Mc Tiernan was in prison “on a former college campus “ I knew it had to be good old Yankton, South Dakota. (I was born in Yankton 👍) The part about people trying to run him over - seems about right.

K Robinson

I shouldn't say this but I also end all my passwords with "omerta" because i am loyale to my capo

Eric U

Sad lack of McTiernan in this.

Harry Kolmer

So are these crimes better or worse than Grindelwalds?

Shaq Attack

Anthony pellicano prison photos are Killing me.🤣

Tom

This story is batshit crazy as I am watching it.

Tom

Ben should be in charge of everything

Shane Warbrooke

Let’s goooooo
