Listen "Lucky Numbers"
Episode Synopsis
Our exit today has us trying to fix the Pennsylvania lottery. This week, we are talking about Lucky Numbers, written by Adam Resnick and directed by Nora Ephron. Along the way, we discuss the roller coaster career of John Travolta (and Tripp's love of Get Shorty), lottery movies, the bizarre tone of this, the Coen Brothers, TV's Fargo, NYPD Blue, bad schemes, 1990s British films, and even a recent bizarre trend in our films that Tripp points out.
