  • 2 brilliant apples from the (un) Barron tree

    Wow oh wow oh wow!! Does Ben Barron sound just like his dad! Every time I hear Ben speak I think it has to be very similar to the younger Mac Barron. It’s uncanny. Ben and Sam’s review of the movie Moonlight was very entertaining. I especially loved how they characterized Oscar Isaac as being from Star Wars and no other movie or show. I only know Oscar Isaac from the HBO show Scenes from a Marriage . Perspective of two different ages. Mac and Katherine,I’ve said it before and I will say it again... more
