S3E17 | Movie: Clue

Who would have guessed that in 1985, Hollywood not only created a movie based on a board game, but that it may have been one of the best game-based movies of all time?! That’s right, we're driving through the pouring rain to the eerie mansion on the hill to rewatch the movie Clue! And we're keeping our friends close and our enemies closer, because we’ve invited Classmate Aaron to help us explore the origins, secret passageways, and endless wise cracks that make this movie so memorable. From the knock-out cast to the quotable lines, this episode will leave our fans screaming, “let us in, let us in!” and the haters seething with “flam - flames,  on the side of my face, breathing-breathl- heaving breaths…” Whoever knew podcasting was just a red herring!?
