About this episode

Bonjour! Join Paul, Jason, and June as they grab a Pepsi and swing into 2024's Madame Web starring Dakota Johnson and Sydney Sweeney. LIVE from Largo in LA, they break down the baby shower scene, the looney tunes fireworks factory climax, the magic healing powers of chest compressions, and how the movie ruined an iconic Spider-Man line. Plus, they ask "How did a baby in an Amazon spider cave end up in the NYC foster system?" and "Does Adam Scott's young Ben Parker end up falling in love with Marisa Tomei's Aunt May?"

HDTGM will be in Boston on June 16th & Nantucket on June 20th! Go to hdtgm.com for ticket info, merch, and more.

Order Paul’s book about his childhood, Joyful Recollections of Trauma, wherever books are sold
