Brent, Chris and David discuss the homework assignment (To Kill a Mockingbird, which is a sin, as we found out). Since that movie featured one of the best cinematic dads ever in Atticus Finch and to coincide with Fathers’ Day – we are talking about Fathers! In movies, TV, some games – movies our dads like, and dads would like in general. RIP Mufasa… Cat’s in the cradle… Silver spoon… All that.

Full disclosure, we haven’t seen a lot of them, but that doesn’t stop us from talking about them. Because we’re just that good / blatant.
