    Ep 200 - The Mystery Marathon Special
    May 5 2025
    For this very special 200th episode of the show, Seamus and Garrett each bring 5 films linked by a common theme, all unknown to the other host, to build a marathon roster unlike anything we have ever done before! Though the films are a mystery, we hold true to our traditions of Family moments, diehard brand loyalty, and late stage audio equipment issues. Play along and guess with your (increasingly tired) hosts or just sit back and listen with any brew you want... as long as it's a Corona. Salute, Mi Familia!
