**Why are people watching this?**

Dave, Justin, and Ashley watch the #1 show on Netflix for the week and try to answer the question: why are people watching this? Comedy and consternation ensue as two agreeable middle-aged chaps and a punchy millennial from rural Canada are subjected to bizarre Korean sci-fi, graphic true crime documentaries, unnecessary medical dramas, baffling 90s sitcoms, and insufferable Hallmark Christmas films. Their honest reactions are filled with wit, insight, and that oh-so Canadian brand of wholesome irreverence and humble exasperation.

Show notes

Dave and Justin discuss Vivo, the #1 show on Netflix this week.

Dave is disturbed that the film failed to properly address the socio-political issues surround the US embargo against Cuba. Justin wonders if this might be an anti-environmentalism film secretly funded by the oil and gas industry. Both the lads are confused as to why there is a kinkajou and a basilisk in the film.

Moraig MacGillivray joins the lads to discuss this new Jean-Claude Van Damme vehicle. Moraig provides a fantastic explanation as to why all Hollywood on-screen fight scenes are utter nonsense.

Justin was so confused by what was happening that he admits to fast-forwarding through some of the film out of spite.
