We're back! Hiatus over! Thanks for your patience!

Based on a TV show created by comedy legends Mel Brooks and Buck Henry, 2008's GET SMART has some pretty big phone-shoes to fill.\xa0 Does James Caan have what it takes to play a nameless President? (DEFINITELY.) Does he deserve better than being asked to do a warmed over George W.? (PROBABLY.) What about skinny Dwayne Johnson?\xa0 Can you trust him not to secretly be a bad guy?! (NO YOU CANNOT.)

Steve Carell, Anne Hathaway, and Alan Arkin get to meet a fake president, too.

Which member of the GET SMART cast was in a fantasy football league with podcast hosts Ben and Eric? GOTTA LISTEN TO FIND OUT! (Hint: The actor is known for being quite the, um, hero...)
