- Ebert’s criticism of Madden and Summerall is rejected as an aged-worst take.
- The earlier review calling Favreau’s performance career-ending is retracted; his later success and this performance are now appreciated.
- The Gary Glitter song is an aged-worst choice because of the performer’s history.
- The hosts discuss Michael Jace’s murder conviction as a disturbing contrast with his character’s fear of returning to prison.
- A host recalls recognizing Jace while he was serving as an usher at an Oasis church on Wilshire.
- Thick as Thieves is recommended in a tangent recalling Alec Baldwin, Michael Jai White, Janeane Garofalo, and Andre Braugher; some character details are tentative.
- The host recalls having spoken with Jace and then learning of his arrest while working at TMZ. The segment’s proposed fun-fact title is rejected as inappropriate to its subject.
- Coaches wearing suits is added as an aged-worst observation, with Mike Nolan's unsuccessful revival blamed for ending the look.
