Episode 45: The Alternate (2000) & Oz S01E04 (/w Will Slater)

It's WONDERFUL! It's MARVELOUS! It's ERIC ROBERTS IS THE MAN, featuring special guest Will Slater (from the Exploding Helicopter blog/podcast) helping us fulfill our BLOOD OATH! Will decided we needed a break, so first he's chosen the completely crazy modern action classic THE ALTERNATE, which has Ice-T, Michael Madsen and AN EXPLODING HELICOPTER.
