Snakes & Otters Podcast

Robert nearly gives Martin constipation with his choice of Clarence Darrow for this edition of Code of Honor.

\As usual, though, things work out splendidly as the guys discuss patriotism's specific approach to injustice, and whether Darrow was spot on  (or not) in calling out what he saw as a dangerous blindness.

Robert gets to play in his favorite sandbox as he leads us through a discussion of the current state of the once mighty Star Wars franchise, including how we got here, what we once (and still do) love so much, along with a heaping helping (naturally) of what we find bloody awful and deserving of our our eternal ire . . . 

Cajun captains the Brotherhood through an examination of a poignant speech by Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce.

Cajun takes the guys through a discussion of culture clashes and human decency (or lack thereof) with a talk about the post-Civil War western expansion and its effects on the Native American Tribes. 

Cajun takes the big chair and discusses his experience at the Superstars Writing Seminar with the guys. 

The guys risk heading to gaol, as they used to say in Britain, to work through an Oscar Wilde quote. 

Another in our "great directors" series, the guys tackle the legacy of Francis Ford Coppola, of Godfather saga and Apocalypse Now fame.

Martin captains this episode and chooses a quote from C. S. Lewis for us to toss around for a while. It's a lively discussion and lots of back and forth about the meaning to us and Lewis.

Listen to the Brotherhood of Snakes and Otters discuss, dissect, and opinionate about the man, the myth, the legend Clint Eastwood and his career move from in front of the camera to behind it too.

Robert leads the discussion with a quote from the great G. K. Chesterton. The man is one of the greatest writers you'll ever encounter. Hundreds of books. 9000 essays. Absolute wit and genius from Chesterton.
