This week, Emily tries to make David care about Texas history and David takes Emily on a journey of height.
Also, Napoleon was Emperor of the French from 1804 until 1814 and again briefly in 1815 during the Hundred Days. That’s our bad.
This week, David tries to make Emily care about the Lakers’ over-under and Emily tries to make David care about the corpse of Maj. William Martin. There’s a lot of accents, some Pod Save America talk, football (uuuuuugh), and general good times with guest producer Jacob Moore (@gimmejacobmoore, remember to smash that follow button).
This week, Emily tries to make David care about the Giant Rat of Sumatra and David tries to make Emily care about hammerhead worms. So pleasant!! Lot of accent work on this one too. We're back, babyyyy.
David tries to make Emily care about the design of Spiz'ike Jordans, and Emily tries to make David care about her favorite scene in Richard II. There's even more movie talk this week than there was last week, and Emily thinks it's starting to weigh on David. But what else could she do when the one and only Zachy D was in the studio? Also we spoil the end of Gossip Girl on this show. You've been warned.
Corrections: Elastigirl is property of DC, not Marvel, so it looks like the merch for Incredibles 2 will probably still say Mrs. Incredible (sigh). At 5'3", Paul Simon is actually four inches shorter than Martin Short. The John in Robin Hood IS John the First (sort of, there was only one), John Lackland, so Emily was right and that Disney lyric doesn't make any sense.
Here's a history of Jordans, so you can follow along with the ones David mentions: https://www.footlocker.com/historyofairjordan
Here's the Spiz'ike: https://www.flightclub.com/air-jordans/spizike
Here's one of Emily's favorite British Boys, Ben Whishaw, performing Act IV Scene 1 of Richard II (and hitting the Jesus imagery REAL hard): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXGkbBbXVSA
The Malcolm Gladwell podcast debate that David mentioned: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/panoply/revisionist-history/e/54417037
The trailer for DESTINATION WEDDING (WOOOOOO): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjXQzRWmb_I

Emily tries to make David care about the Martha Mitchell Effect, and David tries to make Emily care about a car race. Guest producer Doug Coonfield also weighs in. Warning: we all do a little light spoiling of jokes in Infinity War and who's in the cast, plus Guardians of the Galaxy 2 and Thor: Ragnarok. This episode is movie-heavy and pretty rambly. Emily hopes y'all are okay with that, because she loved it.
Corrections: David has seen Eternal Sunshine. Emily has seen Leroy Jenkins. Ahnold was paid $25 MILLION for Batman & Robin, which was $1 million PER MINUTE OF SCREENTIME. Clooney did make $10 million tho, which is not too shabby. The Truman Show came out in 1998, which is very much not 1989.

David and Emily are two friends who happen to care a lot about a lot of things. Some of those things are the same. But some of those things… are different. And there’s the podcast! On each episode,…
