OV041 – Extended Potpourri – Oscar Results, True Detective, HIMYM and E.T.

Runtime: 1:35:15 Noticing a lack of general "potpourri" segments in recent episodes, the guys hit record and start talking. It's a veritable hodgepodge (a podpodge, if you will) of topics spanning reactions to the Oscars, praise for True Detective, lamenting the February dreck at the cinema, disappointment in The Iceman, Star Wars Episode VII news and a healthy discussion of unhealthy writing in How I Met Your Mother.
