On this episode of Recommend or Refute, the Afterthoughts crew forgoes Holiday recommendations (those are yet to come) in favor of a semi-conventional episode. John's excited to introduce you to his new friend D.A.R.Y.L. (1985) and tell you about another 1980s family movie that's not really for kids, Dixon grabs a night cap in preparation to share his thoughts on Nic Cage's latest performance in Dream Scenario (2023), and Ryan tests the limits of our format as he attempts to cram Air Bud (1997) and 8 other Air Bud Entertainment related features into this episode --WE WON'T LET HIM GET AWAY WITH IT! Well, maybe we'll let him get away with some of it.

Tune in to hear two sane men try to help another man down off the cinematic ledge that is animals playing human sports, and stick around after the usual outro to hear an extended conversation on our dream Air Bud scenario.
