2022/04/20

Okay, my fellow DickHeads welcome back. After one reasonably lengthy mental breakdown, we are back with some new material. For this episode, it was decided it would work best if I, LJT, handled it solo. Something about an artsy French film with no genre plot to be found made from a book neither of them particularly dug wasn't their cuppa.
