While I am back in the closet of shame this week, the good news is that I am joined by that most illustrious drinker from last week's episode, Labeja Kodua Okullu. The bad news? This week's episode is about Neil Diamond's The Jazz Singer remake from 1980—and if you're thinking to yourself "I'll bet Neil doesn't go full Al Jolson," you're damn wrong. Despite the film's moral, narrative and performance failings, Labeja and I manage to power through it (alcohol), and come out on the other side having conquered racism. While this might not be the best film of all time, as it isn't Rumble in the Bronx, you will get some top notch cocktail recipes to help wash away the pain that is Neil Diamond's acting.
