The boys are finally back on schedule (almost) to talk about the Sundance darling, Sian Heder's CODA! We dive into the sentimentality of the film and highlight some shortcomings while highly recommending this crowdpleaser. After that Evan quizzes Cody on some other recent festival winning films and we round things out by talking about why so many good films never seem to break out of the festival bubble.
