Ah, the old "pretend you're The Devil to adjust the price of soybeans" trick. We are all familiar with this plot. It's Danitra Vance week on Saturday Night Jive and we watched Limit Up from 1989. This is a movie about a feisty woman who dreams of being a successful soybean trader, she's just missing one thing, a penis. She does her best to break the glass ceiling by learning everything she can about the stock market. Oh, and The Devil is involved. Also God is played by Ray Charles and he has a divine plan that involves soybeans. Of all the films we've watched involving the stock market, it turns out that the one with Bobcat Goldthwait and a talking horse made the most sense. Listen to Ben try in vain to explain the economy to George. Is Ray Charles blind in this film? Is Ray Charles a horse? How would Darth Vader use the force to give his buddy a handjob? Are there infinite universes, and if so is there another podcast that talks about Danitra Vance and Brad Hall as much as we do? Is God a poor planner? All these questions plus a lot of talk about soybeans, deals with The Devil, Quantum Leap, plot twists and John Tesh. Enjoy!
