We continue with HOF musicians and talk about Frank Sinatra and his anti-war film, None but the Brave. We get to just touch on a little bit of the insanity of Frank Sinatra's life by keeping it to the mid-1960s. Finally, we share our favorite Sinatra Christmas songs.

Three idiots bumble their way through an ill-fated attempt to change their lives. But enough about A Free Podcast, let's talk about this episode's subject: Sam Raimi's A Simple Plan. If you'd like to support our nonsense, join our Patreon at https://patreon.com/themidnightboys

We discuss Diablo Cody's cult movie Jennifer's Body. Along the way we marvel at how Rob can't say "wolf," talk about satanic hexes, and discover none of us can remember what our recording schedule is. But at least we know never to willingly draw a clock. If you'd like to support our nonsense, join our Patreon at https://patreon.com/themidnightboys

We choose our words carefully as we got paid by a listener to talk about a 1970s adult film. We talk about the 70s Porno Chic era, Ivory Soap and changing obscenity laws. If you'd like to support our nonsense, join our Patreon at https://patreon.com/themidnightboys
