EP. 344 — The Beekeeper LIVE!

Paul, Jason, & June travel to Jason Statham’s home turf of London to tackle 2024’s The Beekeeper—a “top 5 HDTGM movie” that’s basically Death Wish meets an AARP commercial. They discuss Jason Statham and Phylicia Rashad’s sexual chemistry, the gas station mini-gun fight, Jeremy Irons’ monologue, the phishing scam call center/night club, the leaky FBI office ceiling, and so much more. Protect the hive #BEOSWAAAAARM

We are live at the Hackney Empire for our very first show in the UK and boy oh boy, this crowd is ready because this is a movie that takes place in the UK. You may think it doesn’t.
