Ep 09 - When You Got A Good Friend & A Simple Plan

A group of carpenters uncover something spectacular in the walls of the house they’re renovating: a rare comic book worth millions!  Should be an easy three way split between them.  But their friendship is tested when a workplace “accident” starts to look more like a workplace murder.  Is one of them trying for a bigger piece of the score?  Or have paranoia and greed begun poisoning their friendship?  Have a listen to find out!

And after the story, Chris and Will are talking about a neo-noir film featuring another found fortune: A Simple Plan.  Sam Raimi directed this story about how a blessing can sometimes turn into a curse.  The acting is top notch with Bill Paxton, Billy Bob Thornton, and Bridget Fonda all turning in solid work (with Billy Bob gaining a much deserved oscar nomination for his sympathetic turn as Jacob).
