Focusing on the work of Paul Thomas Anderson in this podcast, we discuss THERE WILL BE BLOOD and THE MASTER. Ben and Michael consider themes revolving around the imperfect and dangerous marriage of the church and capitalism, problems regarding greed and pride, the volatile nature of humanity, and our innate human need for a master. We also talk about our joys with food challenges, share some "pants parodies," describe our hatred for our sophmore year speech class, and tell you that the Garden of Eden is indeed still here on Earth (at least according to one of our classmates from speech).
