Ahoy hoy and welcome back #oldtimers to ATGB! This week we go all the way back to 1921, almost 100 years to the day, to talk about Lois Weber’s silent classic The Blot. 

In the preroll, Troy is joined by the indomitable Demi Lovato to talk about Scenic Trend and to share their love of Camp Rock and the advocacy of artistic creation!

After, Troy takes the solo approach and commentates on The Blot. This train wreck of an episode takes Troy on all kinds of tangents, including the history of Americas’s first female writer, producer, and director, the upcoming adaption of Dune, and takes a call in the middle of the episode. Whether you say that it is a blot on the present day civilization that we expect to engage the finest mental equipment for a less wage than we pay the commonest labor, or simply don’t understand anything that goes on ever, this is the episode for you!
