Gladiator / Elmer T. Lee

Brad and Bob look back on 2000's Best Picture winner, Ridley Scott's Gladiator. Much like the '95 winner, Braveheart, the guys wonder aloud how this one holds up after a couple decades of cultural relevance. It carries an 8.5 average on IMDb, but critics like Roger Ebert awarded it only 2 stars.  Why is it so reviled by critics but beloved by the general public?

Meanwhile, they revisit the Buffalo Tracedistillery for Elmer T. Lee, a lower-proof single barrel offering that is just as hard-to-acquire as all of their other whiskies. Will the bourbon itself be worth the hassle of buying it?
