On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are remembering one of the greats: Val Kilmer. We watched the 1988 film from Ron Howard, Willow.

Don’t you hate it when you’re just trying to live a quiet, normal life, plowing your fields and loving your family, and you’re suddenly tasked with going on a grand adventure to keep an evil witch from killing an innocent baby?

I know I do. Who knows if I’d have the courage and gumption to face that task head-on like Willow does. One thing’s for sure—it makes for a heck of an adventure tale!
