BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Inside the Bucket Podcast #66

This week's episode of Inside the Bucket is online! Revel in the digital mastery! On this week's truncated edition of I nside the Bucket , no one is brave enough to battle Matt for top host on the show except for Brandon, so the two duke it out for the heart and mind of our single podcast listener!

The show kicks off with our news segment, as Matt seeks Brandon's thoughts on a wide variety of topics, from the Tom Hollard/Spider-man announcement, Jason Statham returning for Fast & Furious 8, as well as the new title for Independence Day .

The show ends with a review of Ted 2, but not bef
