It's the season finale! For the final episode of season 1, the Film Bros are venturing into the dangerous, daring world of fine dining, in a movie that is weird, funny, dark, and dare I say... thalassic?

It's been 84 years... since we started talking about James Cameron in every damn episode of this podcast. And now we're finally doing one of his movies! And not just any movie... the third highest grossing movie of all time, worldwide; a technological FEAT that still holds up today -- apart from a few Simlish moments; and an epic, heart-wrenching love story that will never let us go. Grab your tissues, it's time to talk Titanic!
