This week, we suspect foul play! We have eliminated no suspects. It’s a KNIVES OUT special and Amon will be interrogating stars Kerry Washington and Cailee Spaeny (07:06) alongside director Rian Johnson (20:09), to get to the bottom of WAKE UP DEAD MAN. We’ll also be revising the evidence, that is, reviewing the latest in Johnson’s series of Benoit Blanc mysteries (30:25).

Plus, in our HOT TAKE (52:52), we’ll be discussing Netflix’s relationship with its directors. Should filmmakers who want theatrical releases stop working with streamers?
