they livestream the filming of all the episodes so that people can call in. if you're into tv it's actually really interesting to watch.

if there was just an ep of scott and paul screwing around for hours, with no clips of anything, that would be my favorite podcast

If I found differences of opinion hard to accept, I wouldn't bother writing to people about the movie. On the contrary I enjoy discussing movies, that's why I'm here. My point is that Brody misses major emotive content of the movie and instead centers emotions that emerge from deeper themes that he entirely overlooks.…

I'm inclined to agree with this. A neat looking movie that took a long time to build up a premise, then retired it before it could go anywhere in favor of a midlife crisis third act that didn't feel much more substantive than American Beauty.

Movie writers/directors should make movies about problems they don't have?

Hmm, I can't really agree. I have no notion of how this movie is being received, I only read Mike's review and then this one when it was linked here in the comments. But Brody is trying too hard to make Michael Stone a stand-in for Kaufman, and because of this he makes several observations about the former that just…

it's in honor of socialism.

well, harmon is going through a divorce, which hasn't been great for his already extremely fragile emotional equilibrium. and of course he and schrab have known each other forever and like to tweak each other, but also schrab typically plays the beta in that relationship it seems (at least comedically.) which seems…

hear me now!

he is really funny, but he also takes dan to such weird, dark places that i'm starting to worry about the latter (i mean, more than usual)

cool dad, i'll check it out

i wanted not to like this at all but yoda's song is really great

just quickly checking back in to let you all know that we did fuck. and he finished too fast. i think that means i won.

you're aware that the syrian civil war started over drought and ensuing crop famine, right? you have a theory about it that *doesn't* involve global warming?

i would say that it sounds like you have no understanding at all of how federal budgets work, and that this is not at all surprising because your political analysis is so simplistic. none of what you have written here is on the table, it misidentifies the fiscal choices the country actually has to make, and you're…

no, he's literally not. he's been a registered independent his entire life. he *may* have changed registration to get on the ballot in states where it is required, but that's it.

i know you're being sarcastic, but you actually nailed why your political self-definition is incoherent. treating all people with dignity and respect

i for one am shocked that a person who tries to drawn an equivalence between bernie sanders and donald trump should turn out to be basically illiterate, politically speaking. i put so much trust in you, facetaco!

let's put money on it, bro. bernie's not even a democrat. he doesn't give a shit about clinton, or even about endorsements in general, it seems. not going to happen.

i mean, if you want to show your work—by all means. as a person who was alive and sentient in 2007, barack obama was widely considered a long shot, not least because there *was* an establishment candidate—hillary clinton.
