"I didn't kill my wife / I don't care"  Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew: Ian, Liam, and Ethan (Megan and Georgia have commandeered an ambulance) as we're conduction a hard-target search of every gas station, residence, warehouse, farmhouse, henhouse, outhouse and doghouse in 1993's The Fugitive. We're staying up til 2am thinking of an ending in our 186th episode as we discuss:

  • The mess that was the script for this film
  • How did they do the two big set pieces (the train and the dive)
  • How many plot holes this film has in it
  • We've got some technical gremlins in this episode
  • How Megan can't be blamed for our bloated runtimes anymore 
  • Which actor got royally shafted in this film and why it absolutely had to be done
  • Whether or not The Fugitive is the Best Film Ever
