We have long wanted to hear tales of Young Jason, and his collegiate days back at Princeton, whether it’s his rudimentary dietary habits or adventures as a young debate team warrior. This week, his fellow student and debate colleague Steve Yuhan joins us to provide contemporaneous documentation of these days. Then, we discuss Steve and Jason’s favorite movie of that era, the 1994 Coen Brothers’ classic, shot by Roger Deakins, and featuring performances by a transcendent Jennifer Jason Leigh and SILO’s Tim Robbins, The Hudsucker Proxy!
