Huge fan of the podcast, not so much of Indiana Jones, but I feel Miles take is fairly echochambered. Sometimes life puts you down, I get the idea of a "main character" now means infallible but why not look it at as passing of the torch instead as a slight to machismo. Some old dudes just aren't happy and that's fine.
loved this episode. Ralph was great and loved talking about the movies section. nicely done cliffhanger on monster quest. Really miss listening to you guys!
