Segment 3: Breaking Bad vs. The Wire Brian hasn't watched Breaking Bad or The Wire, which sparks a debate among the hosts on which show is better. They discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each show and argue their cases for which one is the superior show.
Segment 4: Movie Marketing That Ruined or Improved Your Experience CJ asks the hosts to share their experiences with movie marketing. They discuss marketing that has ruined their experience with a movie and marketing that has actually improved their experience.
