This Week: Kevin and Kristin get ready for a trek into darkness as they discuss the latest film in the ever-growing Star Trek franchise. But first, Kevin declares legitimate victory in his box office prediction and then declares legitimate victory over Tyler Perry’s belly. They chat briefly about some movie news and later answer a listener voicemail about the demigod status of J.J. Abrams. In the middle of the show, Kevin and Kristin spend some time talking about movies in limited release, and eventually they lay down their favorite selections of DVDs and Blu-rays for the week.

On the deck this week are stories about Tractor Supply Company retaliations, a BBW model packing on the pounds and the overall danger of hippos. Oh, snap!
