On the 414th episode of Piecing It Together we are LIVE from Downtown Cinemas in Las Vegas with guests Faith Nault, Samantha Soriano and Ali The Gran Finali to talk about Heretic! A24's religious thriller poses lots of questions and gave us lots to talk about. Puzzle pieces include Barbarian, Don't Worry Darling, Misert and The Book of Mormon.

As always, SPOILER ALERT for Heretic and the movies we discuss!

Written by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods
