We start the podcast by wishing everybody a happy winter! Then we talk about the same thing all the other podcasts are talking about: the Sony/North Korea troubles. And somehow Josh's criticism of Ben Affleck turns into an argument about authentic laughter in the movies. Josh reviews Highlander (1986 film). Ryan watches I Saw What You Did (1965 film), which spurs us onto our "main" topic of morals at the end of stories and movies. We range from Forrest Gump to the Three Little Pigs, teasing out morals from stories. And we end the podcast with the morals of Dungeons & Dragons and World of Warcraft.
