Sometimes, you're just trying to have an office Christmas party and a riot breaks out. It happens. We get it. We also get to cast an actress from Carlito's Way and a young feller from Star Wars. Maybe we roll out something pasty and doughy, too. It happens. We get it. And we pour one out for a favorite director, gone too soon.

Zumbo and Winegardner present their favorite movies that begin with the letter L. You know, because L.A. Confidential begins with the letter L. Get it? Yes, we know it's dumb. So what.

Zumbo wipes the slate clean with some Housekeeping. We make a pit stop at Nick's Liquors where we meet Lynn Bracken, Buzz Meeks, Sue Lefferts and Pierce Morehouse Patchett, who all do their best to keep Stensland awake. The fellas examine the life and career of Kim Basinger. One of the Baldwin brood gets cast, and Winegardner has a new theory about Zumbo's Obsession.

There's some housekeeping, there's some new segments (with new jingles), there's some other stuff. You know, like, whatever, OK?

Zumbo fulfills a WWTP prophecy and, as an Exegesis, we Examine the third of our trio of heroes, Ed Exley. Guy Pearce's career is Exhumed and his authenticity is Examined. Excellent? Exactly!

You know, there are OTHER movies that take place in or are about Los Angeles. You know that, right? Good! Because this episode is about some of our favorites. So put the top down on your convertible and take a left on La Cienega, get yourself some In N' Out Burger, and soak up the sunshine, glamour and seedy underbelly of the City of Angels.
