About this episode
Jordan and Alex celebrate their 100th episode (and their friendship) by honoring the most famous best buds in entertainment — Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. They'll talk about their initial bond as kids in Boston, the complex personal histories that went into the movie's script, and their long road to the Oscars. They'll also explore the early version of the film that was intended to be a thriller, another draft where everyone died, still another with a long-lost sex scene between Will and Sean, and the early casting that featured the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt. An in-depth psychological exploration of Ben Affleck's existential crisis is offset by tons of tales of Robin Williams at his hilarious best, and they'll probe the boys' passionate relationship with the Red Sox.
