Screenwriter, journalist, and co-host of The Off Court Podcast Abdul Malik joins to discuss Oliver Stone's underrated, sprawling sports epic 'Any Given Sunday'. We cover the film's first-rate ensemble cast, Stone's meticulous examination of the capitalist systems that run professional football, and why the film bears more in common with 'Lawrence of Arabia' than 'Friday Night Lights'. Then, we breifly place our bets on this Sunday's Super Bowl matchup.
