Hearing Brad talk about The Witch now makes me want a watch cast episode for that and The Lighthouse.

Vinny, for some really nice plastic boxes, check out Really Useful Boxes. They used to be in Staples, haven't needed another one in a long time so I'm not sure if they're still kept in stock. They stack really well.

“If you owe the bank $100, that's your problem. If you owe the bank $100 million, that's the bank's problem." I know that wasn’t the exact scenarios, but once you breach a certain threshold, you can leverage the amount you have control over to get some considerations on it’s at least partial return.

Brad learning from Llewelyn Moss's mistakes are why I'm here. Vinny's mafioso shenanigans are also a factor.
