Nights at the Round Table S02E02: Dr Whiskey's House of Rants

Sol and Ash are back! Accompanied by their silent partner \\u2018Dr. Whiskey\\u2019 they are here to take you through a handful of news items from the last couple of weeks. With only two hosts it should be easier to stay on target, but the grain is strong and frequent detours are unavoidable as we take a look at the prospects of a Cool Runnings II, Godzilla hitting 60, Ghostbusters reaching 30, some actual confirmed Star Wars news, the existence of Ball Lightning, the lost Fantastic Four, and Transformers being dumbed down for the next generation. The rants are strong in this one...
