Episode 74: The Civilization Of Maxwell Bright (2005) (/w Rockie Juarez)

Look, I don't know how to write about THE CIVILIZATION OF MAXWELL BRIGHT. It's ostensibly a comedy, though is rarely funny and is often downright depressing. It's also a drama, but featured a completely unhinged Patrick Warburton performance that has to be seen to be believed. There's also a bevy of famous faces who make small appearances, including Jennfer Tilly, John Glober, Norah Dunn and Carol Kane. It's a crazy, crazy, CRAZY movie, but is it any good? Don't ask me! Ask our guest Rockie Juarez, who joins us to talk DOCTOR WHO, drinking piss, UK celebs and SO MUCH MORE! Let's listen!

CAN IT GET ANY BETTER?! Well, yeah! We also talk about an episode of FRASIER, just to send this sucker to the stratosphere. STOP READING, DUMMY. IT'S TIME TO LISTEN!

DIE HARD.. in a MALL? In WINNIPEG? It happened!
