After two family-friendly movies, we're changing up genres this week and jumping into the heavily-filtered world of The Fast and the Furious. Grab a cold Snapple or an iced cappuccino and join Katie and Wesleigh as we discuss street racing, the terrible fashion trends of the early 00s, alternate versions of Vin Diesel, pre-9/11 America, and how this film is similar to The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde (you know you want to hear that connection!).
