Guy Ritchie's 2019 movie has spun off a vaguely related drama series on Netflix; Will Leitch returns to discuss where it ranks in his filmography. Around The Dial takes us through Animal Control, The Curse, and As We Speak: Rap Music On Trial. Sarah makes the case for the Law & Order episode "Trophy" to be inducted into the Canon. Then, after naming the week's Winner and Loser, we play BALL (sometimes; sometimes not) with a sportsy Non-Regulation Game Time. Get to your club, pour some 18-year-old scotch, and join us!
