1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 This week, Derek Miranda (@DerekMiranda85) and Karen Peterson (@KarenMPeterson) go head to head as we talk CHALLENGERS. As always, featured reviews are done in two parts, a NON-SPOILER review with letter grade and brief discussion, followed by a more in depth SPOILER review. PLOT SUMMARY: Tashi, a tennis player turned coach, has transformed her husband from a mediocre player into a world-famous grand slam champion. To jolt him out of his recent losing streak, she makes him play a challenger event -- close to the lowest level of tournament on the pro tour. Tensions soon run high when&amp;nbsp;he finds himself standing across the net from the once-promising, now burnt-out Patrick, his former best friend and Tashi's former boyfriend. Directed by: Luca Guadagnino Written by: Justin Kuritzkes Starring: Zendaya, Josh O'Connor, Mike Faist *Clip from CHALLENGERS courtesy of Amazon MGM Studios. &amp;nbsp; @TheWatchAndTalk (Twitter/Instagram) Facebook.com/TheWatchAndTalk www.TheWatchAndTalk.com TheWatchAndTalk@gmail.com Support the show!&amp;nbsp;www.Patreon.com/TheWatchAndTalk The Watch and Talk | Film &amp; TV Podcast http://thewatchandtalk.libsyn.com/podcast <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/31060443/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/content/171398028
