The Town and Parental Imprisonment

Affleck back to himself

Episode Notes

In this episode, we are sadly sans Britt and Fangirl Fixation.  However, we still have a really interesting episode where we talk about the effects of parental imprisonment (spoiler: it's not good).  To help me discuss that, along with the movie The Town, Dave brings in J.D. from InSession Film!
