# Episode #234 – The Accountant

It’s the movie that thinks autism is the secret to becoming a John Wick-style super-killer, [The Accountant](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2140479/?ref_=nv_sr_1). Meanwhile Elliott details Randy Newman’s difficulty with dirty rhymes, Dan exhausts his knowledge of Zurich, Stuart hates Cheerios, and we all make some probably ill-advised jokes about the murder of Jean Smart.
