Ep1258: Digger (2026) - Live Charity Movie Review
Scary Season is upon us once more, and this year Kicking the Seat has partnered with Feeding America to fight the horrors of nationwide hunger!
In our first installment of "Kicking the Seat Treats the Hungry", Ian and Jeff take on Alejandro Iñárritu's Digger, starring Tom Cruise! From the director of Birdman and The Revenant comes a genre-shattering social satire that some have compared to Dr. Strangelove.
Cruise plays Digger Rockwell, a billionaire oil tycoon whose carelessness accidentally sparks an extinction-level event. The story gets weird from here!
Join the guys as we drill down into this divisive film--and answer YOUR questions and comments in the chat!
You can also donate o help bolster Feeding America's nationwide network of food banks. With over 47 million people facing hunger in the United States, every dollar makes a difference!
Bonus! Supporters who donate $10 or more will be entered into a special November 1st drawing! One lucky winner will receive an original illustration of their favorite movie monster, drawn by renowned caricature artist (and Kicking the Seat co-host) Jeff York!
