Episode 279: 'The Whale' with Guy Branum

Long before THE WHALE was released, Drea texted our friend (comedian, movie star, and Mr. Prune) Guy Branum and asked him to join us for this episode whenever it happened. So today, we answer the question: What happens when a provocative filmmaker puts an excellent, straight actor in an elaborate fat suit and then films a stage play about it? Plus, everyone shares some 2023 New Movie Year Resolutions, and tells us who else they'd like to have a big-screen comeback.What's GoodAlonso - Dot’s Cheese CurlsDrea - The Seven  (1/2) Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle  by Stuart TurtonGuy - Wet Leg, Chaise LongueIfy - Szechuan Noodles from H-Mart (the ones in the beige package)Staff PicksDrea - Women TalkingAlonso - BrosGuy - Born YesterdayIfy - DrivewaysWith:Ify NwadiweDrea ClarkAlonso DuraldeGuy BranumProduced by Marissa FlaxbartSr. Producer Laura Swisher Help support this show and unlock bonus content!
