Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays dear listener, we're back to wrap up the last week of You Don't Know Jack Part Deux with a look at 1994's Wolf, directed by Mike Nichols and starring Jack Nicholson and Michelle Pfeiffer. As the marathon and the year come to a close, Dalton, Alex, and Dustin talk about selling out, masculinity, and a high brow critique of pop culture. We end the marathon with a discussion of our favorite Jack Nicholson roles and as always we discuss what has us fired up this week in pop culture. By the end of the show we mark our territory and set up what's to come next month. So, go ahead and hit that play button; we won't bite... I promise.
