This episode is all about The World’s End, Edgar Wright’s new film with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost! Earl bros it out with Tony again, talking about the movie’s take on alcoholism, its left-turn ending, the brawl scenes, and the motifs throughout the Cornetto Trilogy. They also wind up veering off-course, just like any conversation at a bar after four beers, as they discuss alien life, bromance, and Attack the Block. Grab a pint and stay a while!
Guests:
“The Old Familiar” Tony
