Tom Ortenberg is the founder of Briarcliff Entertainment, which is distributing the new movie about Donald Trump and Roy Cohn called "The Apprentice." It premieres this Friday November 1 wherever you rent your streaming movies – Prime, Apple, etc. As I've discussed on the show, it's not necessarily a political indictment of Donald, but it gives us a feel for how he became the monster we all know – a toxic mix of his own sociopathy, plus some Fred Trump toxicity, and a lot of Roy Cohn in there, too.

It's less than two weeks from the election, so it's time for some professional analysis from political scientist Rachel Bitecofer. You might know her from her Substack called The Cycle, and from such podcasts as this one. We talked about the stakes and the odds of the election, plus we geeked out over some numbers – and Rachel even gave us a bit of a prediction. Plus, we somehow worked Phil Collins into the conversation. o stick around. Meantime, make sure to support this podcast by subscribing at patreon.com/bobcescashow. Music by Freekbass.
