39. Film Club: United 93 (2006)

With the 25th anniversary of 9/11, a day that will live in infamy, we are bringing UNITED 93 to the pod, as Alec and Tim join to talk about Greengrass movie. No film stars appear, just really good actors and, remarkably, people who served in Air Traffic Control and NORAD on the day.
