Rob Reiner's tragic death marks the end of a remarkable career that brought us beloved films from "This is Spinal Tap" to "Stand by Me" to "The Princess Bride" to "A Few Good Men," just to name a few.

And of course, beyond filmmaking, Reiner will be remembered for his most iconic comedic role as Mike Stivic (or Meathead as father-in-law Archie Bunker called him) on "All in the Family."

On this episode, co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz discuss Reiner's legacy, including his most memorable films and appearances.

Then, Miller shares an interview he had with Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson, stars of the new film "Song Sung Blue," which could be this year's go-to movie during the holiday season.

And to wrap up, the hosts discuss some of their favorite Christmas movies of all time.
