This week Mike and Liz are joined by Finn of the Unofficial VeggieTales Podcast! They discuss the episode "Duke and the Great Pie War," a...

They discuss black and white filmmaking, imperial Japan, The Mikado, and the Avatar movies. Mike and Liz get into the most heated debate they have ever gotten into in over 20 episodes, and it wasn't even over religion (unless you count Tolkien as religion, jury's still out.)
