(Deep Dive begins at 30:20)
Why do I get the feeling you're going to be the death of me? Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasters, Ian, Liam & Georgia (Megs if off looking for cloners on Camino) as we're off to Naboo to protect a senator and just staring inapporpriately in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones. We're ready for the adventures of Jar Jar in our 224th episode as we discuss:
Georgia's right to comment on hypothetical fries
Liam does an impression of Felix
We discuss whether George Lucas knows about romance outside of seeing it in films and how that may have affected the final product
Why is Natalie Portman so bad in this? (Although there's one element that Ian & Liam seemed to be in favour of)
There's some more English teacher stuff happening here this week
Ian talks about McDonalds new UK recipes
Whether or not Star Wars: Attack of the Clones is the Best Film Ever

(Deep Dive begins at 47:30)
Would you believe that someone else is to blame for the runtime on a Hermes episode?

What is the proper way to throw a kick at a heavy bag?
We continue to hear the modem sound when Liam tries to access our back catalogue
Ian shares a story of his one academic shortcoming growing up
Hermes continues his one man revolution against the Gif of the Week game
Ian postulates that this film isn't about Lloyd Dobler at all
Ian tries to explain to Liam that he can't keep track of which episodes other people have missed
The trappings of large sized products when we'd probably be satisfied with a medium sampling

Whether or not Say Anything is the Best Film Ever

Whether a simple story is necessarily a bad story
We talk about big life events this week
Liam talks an awful lot about films we're not reviewing this week
We discuss the Guinness Record this film had for an awfully long time

See It or Skip It? - WrestleMania 40: Night Two
BEFORE 53:30 is our WrestleMania 40 (Night Two) PREVIEW & PREDICTIONS
AFTER 53:30 you get our WrestleMania 40 (Night Two) FULL REVIEW
You know we love our wrestling here at the BFE (well some of us...). Join Ian from Best Film Ever and Stew from The Stew World Order podcast as we break the BFE format by looking at WrestleMania 40 (Night Two). We discuss whether The Rock is helping or hurting creative? Did WWE promise something they ultimately couldn't deliver on? What exactly is a Bloodline Rules match anyways and did the end result justify the Night One Main Event? We also discuss who has the worst finisher on the WWE roster? We'll answer all these questions on WrestleMania 40 (Night Two) and then we'll compare it to WrestleManias of the past.

AFTER 1:02:00 you get our WrestleMania 40 (Night One) FULL REVIEW
You know we love our wrestling here at the BFE (well some of us...). Join Ian from Best Film Ever and Stew from The Stew World Order podcast as we break the BFE format by looking at WrestleMania 40 (Night One). We discuss whether The Rock is helping or hurting creative? Do we rate matches higher or lower based on our representations? What other stories besides Cody Rhodes needs finishing this year? And whether a two-night WrestleMania card is diluting the quality off matches that qualify for the event? We'll answer all these questions on WrestleMania 40 (Night One) and then we tell you whether you should SEE IT or SKIP IT.
