Listen "2006: Departed Pirates"
Episode Synopsis
It's 2006, and get ready for the most thrilling, action packed, high quality bummers of a movie. The Oscar finally found its way to Martin Scorsese, with his tense remake of Hong Kong flick Infernal Affairs, The Departed. Leonardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon go head to head in the Battle of the Snitches, and nobody walks away clean. Speaking of nobody being clean, audiences flocked back to Tortuga for the long awaited return of Jack Sparrow and the gang, as the Pirates of the Caribbean seek the Dead Man's Chest. Fish Monster Pirates and colonizing capitalists pursue our heroes while they all manage to scheme against each other. Claire, Erin, and Dan dissect both, while getting flummoxed by which actor got an Oscar nomination.
