Join Mike at the Grand River Drive-In in Leeds, AL, where he watches, and occasionally comments on, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. 

Other thoughts include: other activities to do in town other than sit around, watch movies and play video games; escape rooms; rage rooms (where you, an adult, pay money to break stuff like a little kid); the wide range of sights and sounds you see in town as a delivery driver; an Uber customer I delivered groceries to accidentally stole my beer; a jackass Doordash driver got fired for cursing at a customer who gave him a generous tip; director James Mangold is a great director despite Indiana Jones, and more.
