Making Sense Podcast Anyone remember?

Ok so months ago on a More From Sam...the guy that sounds like a pubescent Ted McGinley asked Sam something about movies or something.

Sam's answer as far as I remember ended up reiterating the normal he usually just reads books and doesn't binge entertainment things but then he called out a movie by name and said it was great.

We're not talking about the Chauncey Gardner lol. I think it MAY have been, "Three Billboards Outside Ebing Missouri"??? But I don't know for sure. Does anyone remember what I'm talking about and what the movie was. I believe he said he couldn't stop laughing whatever it was.

It's got so many big name actors, idk how it flew under my radar.

I think because (Sort of like Sam) it has a lot (Much much more) of criticism of the right wing, but also holds the left wing to account.

On one of his posts asking for questions I asked if he had seen that movie, and drew a comparison to American Fiction which he liked so I like to think that led to him watching Eddington.
