Will This Be On The Test?

Episode 97: Why We Don't like Poetry and Superman Smashes the Klan


Listen Later

This week, after seeing something either totally amazing or tragic at Costco, Mattie and Austin only ramble for like 10 minutes before the episode starts.

Why do we hate poetry? and more importantly what exactly is poetry? Mattie tells us all about how we might not like it because it is taught in a strange way and people gatekeep the ever-living shit out of it. She also blew Austin's mind by telling him that the most taught poem does not mean at all what we think it means. it was wild.

Then Up in the Sky! It's a Bird! It's a Plane! No, It's Austin talking about Superman! Why is Austin in the sky? he is nothing like a bird. this intro is confusing. we didn't think it through. But Austin heard a celebrity say something stupid and so he had to talk about an amazing time when activists teamed up with the writers of the Superman radio drama and stopped the KKK in their tracks.
