When Poolhouse teams up with his friend, fellow Good One™, and spiritual brother, Basil, the sparks FLY. The vibrations shake as the foundation of the world begins to quake. That Watson starts to Crrk. F—g—ts SHRIEK. Take-sellers scurry. Leftie wigs are left askew worldwide.

This percolating, super-sized banger of an episode has EVERYTHING: Sexlectics™, (some!) Octolectics, media market demystification, the tea on Hollywood blood libel parTies, a little sermonizing here, a manifesto for Takecels there, **original raps** and so. much. more. But always remember: it’s all about the (para)social friends you made on the way.

The takecel insurgency is taking back the narrative reigns from the Producers, as they become. Move over, Mehdi Hasan and Ari Melber–t Basil and Pool are delivering 3008 terrabytes of WHITE HEAT per light minute, as they delivery incendiary Take-Seller™ takedowns and crash the Bryan Singer hot tub party, lassoing the ankle-biters with the piping hot ropes of truth & wit that they they shoot sling all over the creepy-crawly media market machinations that subvert popular discourse.

It’s a rapturous affair..Here comes the…BAREBACKK
