This week, Justin and Dave watched Ozark. Here’s the Netflix synopsis: "A financial advisor drags his family from Chicago to the Missouri Ozarks, where he must launder money to appease a drug boss. The Byrdes and their teenage kids, Charlotte and Jonah, are, for all intents and purposes, an ordinary family with ordinary lives.” Justin appreciated the production value involved in this show, but had an emotional aversion to the characters and the story and the general vibe - especially the parts involving Jason Bateman urinating or visiting imaginary prostitutes. Dave had some deep thoughts as to why viewers are drawn to these dark sad stories (i.e., because their lives seem less crap in comparison), and had a lot to say about the corrupting power of money.
