The NFL Draft is finally behind us, and we wanted to bring some of the top minds in college football in to break down every round. Unfortunately, you're stuck with me and Chad. Dude You Podcast is back again, and we're talking the bleak look ahead at the sports calendar, Oliver Luck versus Vinny Mac and the lies NFL uniforms tell us.

We're still here. Somehow. 2020 has been kicking all of our asses and we're still only in the 4th round. Each month feels like it's own year. It's been a month since the last Insanity Check and so much has changed. Bernie Sanders is not only out of the race for the Democratic Nomination but he quickly endorsed Joe Biden, the US leads in Coronavirus cases AND Deaths (USA,  USA, USA), Trump isn't the dumbest sitting republican in office (its tough to top asking if ppl can inject disinfectants to kill the virus but some people have) and so much more. Kriss is joined by Dpalm for this episode so strap in.

Topics:

* What could  possibly  happen in a month?

* Didn't know we  had to say this but: Please don't drink bleach cause of Donald Trump

* No, protesting Stay At Home Orders doesn't make you Rosa Parks

* White people need natural predators so they know  what real oppression is like

* New Segment (special for only Dpalm): THAT'S SO GEORGIA

* Governor Kemp didn't know asymptomatic people could spread coronavirus

* The real reason Kemp and the  GOP is pushing to open the economy in Georgia

* Cooning ass Rep Vernon Jones

* The Mayor of Las Vegas might be the dumbest politician in the US

* Do You Even Sci-Fi Bro?

* Finding love with your wife and your  sexbot in the pandemic

We've really missed this show. And it doesn't disappoint after a month break by hitting the ground running. We get one of the murderous Fates, Zari meeting Zari, Mick trying to win his daughter's love and a Supernatural crossover. All in like 42  minutes. If you don't like  Legends then we just don't know what to tell you.

The CW Shows have returned for what seems like the longest break every. We know the pandemic is gonna cut some things short as we get towards the end of the seasons but The Flash is  handling things pretty well. This has been a really good season which sucks that they might end up rushing to get to the end. The good news is they've been setting things up all season so it shouldn't be too bad. They've done a really great job with Mirrorverse Iris always using legit issues with Barry to manipulate him the way Eva  wants. Also...come on Joe...normally Barry's the reckless one running headfirst into situations with the villain.

But  most  importantly...we get the return of Sue. That's all that really matters here.

With two simple words, Michael Jordan changed the sports world in the 90s. Now, on the eve of the premiere of The Last Dance, Cam joins the show to talk all things MJ. We talk about the lenses we're approaching the documentary and what twitter era Jordan might have been like.

Little Fires Everywhere is the Messy Drama/Mystery You Didn't Know You Needed...

Welcome back to another I Talk Sh*t & Read Book-to-Screen chat. This time, Ro and Joi are kicking off  a new one and the topic's Hulu Original series, Little Fires Everywhere.

Hulu's Series is an Adaptation that Elevates the Source Material  

Adapted from the novel by acclaimed writer Celeste Ng, Little Fires Everywhere is the story of two different worlds (we're talking class difference folks) colliding when a nomadic artist Mia Warren (Kerry Washington) and her daughter (Lexi Underwood) arrive in Shaker Heights, Ohio and meet Elena Richardson (Reese Witherspoon) and her picture perfect family. 

In the hands of showrunner (and executive producer) Liz Tigelaar, this adaptation of Little Fires Everywhere masterfully adds depth and contemporary nuance to both the overall story arc and each character. 

The writing, directing, and production teams bring it all together with irresistible visuals and perfectly time irreverence. 

Questions At Every Turn...

What starts as just another a story about two women and their journey as mothers is now moody mystery with a subtly addictive narrative in the hands of actors giving masterful performances. There's emotional complexity, clashes of privilege, angst, and dangerous upheaval.

Thus far, the writing and direction seamlessly (despite the varied creators) blends shifting perspectives and dramatic highs and lows together in a way certain to keep attention.

To start things off we limited our discussion to topics arising out of episodes one through four respectively. The first four episodes, 'The Spark', 'Seeds and All', 'Seventy Cents', and 'The Spider Web' set the stage for what's shaping out to be an exciting second half.

We've got opinions, theories, and serious gratitude for the realness buried in all this glorious mess. 

Directors:

Lynn Shelton (The Spark, The Spider Web) and Michael Weaver (Seeds and All, Seventy Cents) 

Writers:

Liz Tigelaar (The Spark), Nancy Won (Seeds), Raamla Mohamed (Seventy Cents), Attica Locke (The Spider Web)

New Episodes

 Wednesdays on Hulu (Eight Episodes)

The Doctor is joined by Allegra from the Core Temp Arts Podcast Network to discuss season 1 of the original 21st century appointment television series, Nip/Tuck.  The show follows two Miami-Dade plastic surgeons through their professional and private lives.  Season 1 on rewatch was still soap opera, but we were amazed at the amount of social commentary that the show addressed in a way that was progressive for 2003.  Nip/Tuck is currently available for viewing on Hulu.

No sports? No problem! The internet giveth and the internet taketh away, as sports are gone, but we were given the gift of a 64 song OutKast Bracket, and any idea worth having is an idea worth stealing. Thanks to Chris Long and the Green Light podcast, I was given something to yell about especially since the public vote was so abysmal. This episode will take you to the Stankonia Sixteen, and we'll be wrapping up the bracket on the next episode.
