Part 1 of our Watchmen analysis miniseries + our 4 part comic book special. To celebrate Rorschach's 82nd birthday and our return from a year-long hiatus, we have a sixty-five-minute long word-vomit sesh wherein we explore this controversial comic book antihero from a sympathetic (and queer-coded) perspective - and get interrupted by an industrial power drill. What else is new?
Sensitive subject matter (child abuse - neglect, violence, and CSA) is discussed between 7:55 and 35:51 should listeners wish to skip ahead!
