The hosts discuss the film Jerry Maguire and its themes of love and desperation.
It's springtime and love is in the air, so our podders wondered what it would look like if two desperate people decided to settle. That's right, we watched Jerry Maguire, so who's coming with me? Who's coming with me! Grab your favorite mariachi wedding band, a big pile of money to show Cuba Gooding Jr, and of course that big ol' 8 pound head of yours. And just like Lionel Ritchie says, you had me at Hello!!!!!!!!!
