The Fast and the Furious ft. Dima Skinner

Connor & Jon bring on the final sibling, one Dima Skinner, to discuss the not-so-humble beginnings of the Fast and the Furious franchise. Jon's opinion wavers back and forth as to whether it is a rip-off of Point Break, Dima can't stand the nonsense car lingo, and Connor brings forth a defense for Keanu Reeves.
