Plus, we wonder why the kids in the The Goonies (1985) were called the goonies, the craft service team on the set of The Shining is under fire, we get down to the buzzer with our NBA mascot knowledge, and, we pay tribute to the iconic Taco Bell chihuahua. And, in an A4i first, we answer two fantastic questions submitted by Patreon members! (Thank you, Patrons!)
