Ep. 109 - Golden Arm

This episode is a change of pace because we're discussing the venerable art of arm wrestling for the first time. Golden Arm is lighthearted fun that emulates Kingpin's zany road trip while also taking some plot elements from The Karate Kid. A jacked-up Mary Holland (the scene-stealing sister in Happiest Season), Betsy Sodaro and the funny supporting cast certainly commit to this nutty material. Are they doing a lot of improv? It feels like it. And they're good at it.
Director Maureen Bharoocha finds the right tone in her debut and she doesn't let Golden Arm overstay its welcome. So don't be freaked out about having to lock up in an angry handshake. Celebrate your victories, get over your fear of a powerful rival, begin a romance with a sexy guy (or girl) and fire up our conversation about ladies locking palms.
