Mark welcomes fellow podcaster, writer, and movie lover Devin Lotfi back to the show to be his prom date and celebrate the 1985 cult classic Just One of the Guys for its 40th anniversary. Some of you don't know this movie and frankly, how dare you! They each watched it on cable as kids, laughing, gasping, and relating to the experience of hiding your true self and blending in. Before Amanda Bynes disguised herself as a boy in the great She's the Man, Joyce Hyser did it here two decades earlier and busted out that memorable reveal.
