Bonus! - Pt. 2 - Drop Dead Fred (RT)

Oh boy. Patron Paul Meyers really threw us for a loop with this one. Can Alex & Julio even verbalize how they feel about Drop Dead Fred? Did Paul’s pick land better than his previous one, Dead Alive? Is there a British wall keeping Rik Mayall’s brand of humor at bay, or is it just a nostalgia wall? All this in Real Talk!

Barry Roskin Blake interviews Rik Mayall (in case you were wondering where those clips came from)
