- Roast chicken is overrated, especially the ordinary home-cooked version; great restaurant or Ina Garten versions are allowed exceptions.
- More genres should feature leads over fifty because seasoned actors and lived-in characters are compelling.
- Santa Barbara’s relentlessly sunny screen image is challenged by coastal fog; others defend its beauty, retirement appeal and surrounding destinations.
- Keanu Reeves is better in Something’s Gotta Give than The Matrix; the closing discussion again supports funding Meyers while questioning the reported $180 million budget.
