The fellas all saw Ari Aster's latest anxiety-inducing bout of weirdness and decided to talk about it! Eddington's politics, its themes, and some of its hilarity are all discussed.

It's time to finally get political again as the boys react to the recent Jeffrey Epstein news by going off on current events, violence in politics, and the ongoing genocide.

The boys go full dadcore and engage with the work of director Michael Mann! Mostly Heat. Also, Collateral, and some other stuff. Look here for positive reinforcement that your thoroughly middle aged man tastes are in fact highly aesthetic and artful. They are!

The boys are back with another director-specific episode, this time dedicated to the work of filmmaker Werner Herzog. We primarily discuss Grizzly Man, Aguirre, and Encounters at the End of the World. We also forgot to talk about Bad Lieutenant, but seriosuly, go watch that, too.

TASTEFAKERS! Jesse gets on for a solo ep where he extols the virtues of a comic book: Grant Morrison's Seven Soldiers of Victory. Get bombarded with a technicolor explosion of weird ideas, bombastic superheroes, and a cynical man's warmest feelings for the art we find in the debris of pop culture.

The boys stop talking about depressing sh*t for an episode to sing the praises of a true afficionado of the weird: David Lynch. We cover themes of his work, defend him from Roger Ebert, discuss what we think his top three works are, and somehow find time to talk crap about politican Cory Booker for reasons only important to us.

We finally go fully political and rant about the collapse of Western Civilization, in all its attendant symptoms. Immigration, Gaza, declining literacy, climate change, the boys talk about all the hits in this dire political moment. Perhaps we can find hope somewhere in here?

TASTEFAKERS! Tim takes the mic to present a discussion on the prison, based on a presentation he gave at the University of Pennsylvania. This episode is more academic in tone, but consider it an opportunity to speak authoritatively on a subject you might know little about, impressing those easily impressed around you! In all seriousness, this is a serious subject, and we hope it can open some eyes to prison abolition and the function of the American prison system.

Prepare yourself for a tour de force in complaining, whining, and bitching. The boys discuss several of the nominees for Best Picture in this year's Academy Awards, perhaps flying too close to the sun by describing them as mostly fraudulent. If you can't stand the heat, perhaps you can settle your nerves with an anodyne music biopic. Do it, we dare you!
