ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In our episode this week we dissect the movie, The Big Lebowski, and find that it is much deeper than we thought at first glance. We know that Maud is tough, that Walter’s got issues, and that the Dude is lazy, but the reason why is quite mind boggling.
Oh and Donny and The Stranger played by Sam Elliott are much more important to the meaning of the movie than we thought…
You will never look at this movie the same way. We hope you join us and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
