Patreon's on sale right now! Join the $5 level for $3 or the $10 level for $8 and that will STAY your pledge for as long as you subscribe! https://www.patreon.com/solidlisten This week, Rob tells Molly about a Korean movie he saw over the weekend (with LIGHT spoilers) that left someone in the audience so confused that they yelled out "WHAT" during the end credits. Then, Molly introduces Rob to a game she made up where they have to take turns defending the somewhat indefensible, including Kayla and her Martin's hotdog bun, Hunter Biden, Danny and Nia, and a scene from the flop sequel, Son of The Mask.
