174 - Pt. 2 - Goodfellas (RT)

Is it possible for two Scorsese fans to say anything fresh about GOODFELLAS? Is it even necessary? Alex & Julio face an unusual challenge in their Contrarians journey, but hopefully one that makes for a fun Real Talk segment. And when they’re done praising everything about Marty’s masterpiece, will Alex be forced to re-evaluate his opinions about CASINO?
