Andrew Nette, El Goro, and Mike have no failure in communicating about Stuart Rosenberg’s 1967 film Cool Hand Luke. The film stars Paul Newman as the titular Luke. He’s a former war hero who cuts the heads off of some parking meters and gets tossed onto a chain gang for his crimes.
We discuss the film and the book as well as highlighting some of Rosenberg's other directorial efforts.

We’re kicking off a month of Patreon requests with a request from Dallas Novell; 1982’s TV movie The Executioner's Song. Based on a book by Norman Mailer with a screenplay by Mailer -- and maybe Tracy Keenan Wynn -- it’s the story of the last nine months in the life of Gary Gilmore which stars Tommy Lee Jones as Gilmore and Rosanna Arquette as his girlfriend, Nicole Baker.
Made for TV Mayhem's Amanda Reyes and Wake Up Heavy's Mark Begley join Mike to discuss the film, capital punishment, and more while director Lawrence Schiller talks about how The Executioner's Song came about.
