How Did McCloud Get Into This? - Week of 6/17/20

The Fellowship is pleased to present our discussion of the 1975 movie Jaws. This week we're joined by Colleen and Eddie Medina (hosts of the Figments podcast on DallasOnAir.com) to sing the praises of everyone's favorite shark movie. We talk about the history of the movie, the amazing performances, the movie's status as one of the best of all time, and a bunch of stuff in between. Plus our usual tangents galore and our comics picks of the week.
