On this special podcast, I'm jumping back into Pandora. But I couldn't do that alone, so I brought my good friend Scott Mendelson (now of The Wrap) on the show to discuss James Cameron's long-awaited sequel. Was it worth the 13-year wait? How many times could I make Scott feel old in the span of an hour?
