Matt Damon plays a down-on-his-luck poker virtuoso/law student who gets dragged back into the world of underground high-stakes Texas hold 'em by his old friend Worm (Edward Norton), fresh out of prison with a huge gambling debt to repay. Will Damon choose the thrill of the cards over his law career and his bland, responsible girlfriend (Gretchen Mol)? Or will he go back for one last round with the cartoonishly Russian Teddy KGB (John Malkovich)? Is there even a question? Load up a sleeve of Oreos like Malkovich does and check out our episode, along with our custom cocktail and drinking rules! PRODUCER'S NOTE: We're trying a few different ideas regarding mic placement as we finish up work on the new recording studio, so apologies if some of the audio sounds a little more echo-y than usual. We'll get it sorted out soon, promise! (Thanks to our sponsor Cards Against Humanity as part of the Chicago Podcast Coop!)

This week, Chicago geek titan Aaron J. Amendola (of VStheUNIVERSE and Panels on Channels) graces our microphones to help us talk about the charming 90s comic book flick The Rocketeer! Based on the comic book, The Rocketeer follows stunt pilot Cliff Secord (Billy Campbell), who stumbles upon a rocket pack invented by Howard Hughes (Terry O'Quinn) and - who else - the Nazis! Joe Johnston's audition tape for Captain America: The First Avenger is a fun celebration of the Golden Age of Hollywood which stops just short of accusing Errol Flynn of being a Nazi spy. We talk about Jennifer Connelly, the film's rough production, and more, along with our custom cocktail and drinking rule

Aaron Amendola is the artistic director of VStheUNIVERSE. He's also a great guy. He also has an opinion that Clayton and Kellen want to investigate: that Dragon Age: Inquisition is an amazing game. On this episode of Talking Games, hear them debates its merits and weaknesses! You know you want to!
It's one of the hottest games of the moment, so it's probably time we talk about it -- Destiny takes up a large chunk of our conversation with VsTheUniverse artistic director Aaron Amendola this week. Then we turn our attention to an overview of the Final Fantasy series, focusing on some of the later games, and Aaron names a potentially controversial favorite. All this plus multiple visits from Gay Ben Franklin!
