Episode 251 - 3:10 to Yuma (w/ BFF of the BFE: Hermes Auslander)

Best Film Ever

(Deep Dive begins at 1:02:40)

What does it mean to be a man? What kind of man do you want to see in the mirror? Those are some of the questions we're asking ourselves and each other this week.. Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasters, Ian and Liam, (Kev, Megs, and Georgia are off chasing the wrong wagon) as we're joined by BFF of the BFE, Hermes Auslander for the FULL EPISODE as we're off on a BOYS' NIGHT while reviewing a modern western that's also a remake of a classic film. We're not gonna see the sun in our 251st episode as we discuss:

• How many episodes should we do before calling the BFE to a stop
• Why James Mangold drew so much attention to a prop never to pay it off
• We discover that geography isn't Liam's strongest subject
• Ian asks a bizarre trivia question
• We talk about the commitment to a storyline injury and which actor wasn't feeling it
• Ian is surprised by Russell Crowe's performance (but in what direction?)
• We also compare one of the actors to Georgia
• We discuss whether we can hold masculinity in a positive regard in modern pop culture
• Liam learns about the electoral college and we talk an awful lot about the U.S. election
• Whether or not 3:10 to Yuma is the Best Film Ever
