Uncut Gems - Free-market Movie Review

We’re here to talk about a more serious Adam Sandler movie, “Uncut Gems” that opens with a hole in his butt, and ends with a hole in his head.  Our pal Patrick MacFarlane of Liberty Weekly joins us to discuss this movie about gambling addiction, the NBA playoffs, and precious gemstones on tonight’s episode. A charismatic jeweller makes a high-stakes bet that could lead to the windfall of a lifetime. In a precarious high-wire act, he must balance business, family and adversaries on all sides in pursuit of the ultimate win. Join us next weeks as we bring back our guest from our “Les Miserables” episode to discuss an anime-inspired film, “Alita Battle Angel” that has some interesting questions about sentience and self-ownership among other fun angles.
