🌟 Our heroes crack the code of Sneakers, the 1992 tech-heist classic packed with gadgets, shadows, and one of the coolest casts ever assembled 💻🔐🕶️

Greg loves the film (it's one of his Top 30 favorite films of all time), while Andrew enters the mission a skeptic, struggling to find the target. But as the plot deepens and the passwords unlock, our heroes dig into what makes this cult classic so enduring.

Together, our heroes spotlight the film’s legendary ensemble—Robert Redford, Sidney Poitier, Dan Aykroyd, Mary McDonnell, David Strathairn, and Ben Kingsley—and unravel how a movie this fun also feels prophetic. From early warnings about mass surveillance, to hacker ethics, to a world-changing black box that can crack any system, they explore why Sneakers was ahead of its time… and why it still hits today 🔍📡

They also break down the comedy, the charm, the conspiracies, and the surprisingly emotional heart at the center of it all, discovering that beneath all the espionage, Sneakers is really a story about friendship and finding the truth in a world built on lies.

So pull out your Scrabble board and get ready to light up the dark… too many secrets at a time! 🔦💻✨
