Panic! At The Dungeon

Ross and Ryan take a look at one really bad film starring one really good actor- the 1982 TV movie "Mazes & Monsters" with Tom Hanks. Were role-playing games really turning America's youth into Satanists? "60 Minutes" sure seemed to think so! Also, Ross shares his prediction for the end of "Stranger Things". This is a deeply unserious episode about a deeply stupid movie.
