What happens when a movie that feels like it was written in 1984, and was inspired by the 2000 election, is made in 2008? You get Swing Vote. Meanwhile, Dan reveals an uncomfortable new use for tweed, Elliott explains his new game show, and Will busts out the world's most accurate Paul Schrader impression.

And while we're posting videos, here's Dan and this week's guest host Will Hines in their first meeting. Will plays the 2nd employee Dan fires:
