Jungle Jon Favreau is up to his old tricks with this multi-level marketing scheme equivalent of a movie. Racist tropes narrowly avoided, I must say, preserving the Disney name for TEN MORE YEARS! You certainly love to see it. I am asking you kindly to watch the "I wanna be like you" musical part. Are they serious with this shit? Nobody could have really been pleased with that scene right? Call in and let us know! -- We went off the rails because this movie is so boring and bad its actually a disservice to try to critique it. This is it, the last Jungle Jon Joint that we have to watch, I refuse to see lion king. RR is changing now, were not going to be shitting on movies anymore, hard to believe I know.. stay tuned

Jon Favreau's CHEF(2014) is hot off the line! Do you like: Cubanos? Mirepoix? Foodie Culture? We're looking for a badass podcast listener to tune into this edition of RR and weigh in on this heavyweight feature film by a heavyweight director at the top of his acting, directing, AND culinary game! Jon Favreau is the type of guy to put a job posting up for a "Badass line cook" for 11/hour in his food truck.

Jon F takes on another soul sucker before his big break, CHEF. This is the first movie bennett and I ever spoke about in person probably 8 or 9 years ago. Talk about searching for jobs, feeling worthless, and feeling powerful.

Measuring our lives, laughing. Did quite a bit of thinking and quit my job. Plumbing some depths, testing the water, splashing each other, drying off, off to bed at the foot of the mountain. Somehow still there is much to do.

Iron Man 2, take 2. We finished the first one and bennett said "oh god was i not recording?" "It happens!" i tell myself. You should have seen us on that first take though.. I was jonah, bennett the whale.. it got to nearly 99 degrees in my apartment. I drank like 5 pots of puer tea during this and was feeling fresh in the bad way.

We talk zathura, marked up weed prices, cops, and having a younger brother that is stronger than you-- Reel Heads Maggie and Jonah hop on at the end and spill a dark rumor that Shane's been hiding. Jon was maybe at his peak weight during the release of this film.

took lsd at work yesterday quite nice then two beefy fucking brothers knocked a ton of sh-t over and ruined the vibe... damm that shi- gives me a lot to think about. trying to be unmoved by things outside of my control. I want jon favreau to hug or choke slam me. i think hes at a point in his career where hes so rich that he thinks anything that doesnt make 20million is an artistic endeavor. hes quirky!
