On a very special Christmas podcast, Glenn and Daniel venture into the plot-complex and dialogue-rich directorial debut of Aaron Sorkin, Molly's Game, based on the memoir by Molly Bloom, who ran a series of high-stakes underground poker games for a flurry of the rich and powerful before being pulled into legal peril. This film contains four outstanding performances - the two you'd expect, plus Cera and Costner. If you've got some time off this holiday, be sure to check it out (35:37).

May contain NSFW language.
