  • #602 - Prestige Slop
    Imagine someone fed the last 10-or-so years of American liberal politics into an A.I. machine and told it to create a Netflix miniseries. Friends... you don't have to imagine. We discuss Robert De Niro in ZERO DAY (2025), the bilge water at the bottom of the prestige-TV.

  • PREVIEW - #601 - Machine Gun Preacher (w/ Alex Shephard)

    When you speak into a microphone for 600 episodes across nine years, you're going to forget a lot of it.
