Is it Good?

Ep. 11 - Chairman of the Board


Listen Later

You know the drill, and hopefully you find comfort in routine. This week, they watched 1998's Chairman of the Board, a comedy aimed at nobody in particular. This episode was recorded before election night, which is pretty fun because you get to listen to two people who don't know how bad your current world is! Anyways, this is a really dumb movie so maybe it'll distract you for a few short minutes. Also Mia predicted the election, which is cool but not that difficult.

Highlights include:

  • Carrot Top, on the silver screen at last!
  • Fred the Horse from Over the Garden Wall (well, his voice actor).
  • Sex jokes that seem a little too explicit for a PG-13 movie, but hey, what do I know?
  • A discussion of Werckmeister Harmonies, Hungarian filmmaker Béla Tarr's bleak meditation on the death of hope.
  • Umm Chia Pet Hair? Now THAT'S funny.
  • A mutual headache.
  • Thanks to Tom Lehrer for the use of our theme song, "Selling Out".
