Episode 16: Properly Rated with Special Guest Ben Nichols!

Back and better than ever, on this episode Max and Maks are joined by longtime friend, Ben Nichols!

Ben was kind enough to join Max IRL in NYC for this one and the guys catch up, Maks gives some important Violet updates, Max and Ben talk action movies, and they all lament that in their old age they can’t put away full pizza pies like they used to back in their heyday.

Later, they settle in for The Game of The Week where they play “Overrated, Underrated, or Properly Rated” and give hot, lukewarm, and in some cases ice cold takes and opinions on everything from pizza to dating apps.

First up this week in the land of misfit content, we’ve got new Violet pics!

Violet has a very sophisticated palate when it comes to her food, just like her dog dad Maks. Photo courtesy of Maks Berger.

Next, check out a low carb pizza that Max made that probably looked better than it tasted –

Turns out you can make an attempt at a pizza crust by mixing together almond flour and melted cheese, who knew? Photo courtesy of Max Siskind.

Next up, let’s check out some action movie posters for the ones the guys talked about in this episode!

50 Cent is much more prominently featured in this poster than his character was in the movie. Photo courtesy of The Movie Database.
In John Wick 2 it turns out that you still shouldn’t mess with Keanu. Like seriously, why would you do that? DON’T DO THAT. Photo courtesy of The Movie Database
Nic Cage and airplanes, what more could you ask for? Photo courtesy of The Movie Database.
