Welcome to Ze Public Button as Borzoi and JF weaponize their combined autism into a thorough deep dive into Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction, with a monologue by Third Rails's Spectre at the end. Join us as we examine the racial fetish politics of Tarantino, the aping of the French New Wave, and even themes of grace and redemption in a movie some call a classic, others call derivative.

Get tense and comfy this week on the Poz Button as Borzoi talks to Doctor Narcan and Dark Enlightenment about two very different pieces of media. First we have the sparse and minimal thriller, the Survivalist. Then we have the comfy and wholesome documentary Alone in the Wilderness. Join us for survival tips and anprim philosophy.

Corrections

• The Visigoth siege in the Roman times I referred to was at Clermont, not Claiborne.

In a Poz Button first, Borzoi talks about a movie he's *really* passionate about: Watership Down. Join him and frequent panelist General Belisarius on an Anabasis romp about wartime rabbits where they talk about Mannerbunds, military discipline, the great men of history, and masculinity around this classic 1978 animated film about rabbits.

Poz Button lives! Borzoi remembers why he cares in this disturbing episode about the first season of True Detective as he talks to Titus and Nick Mason about child sex rings, Lovecraftian horror, and nihilism, and follows it up with a excerpt on true crime from the Poz Button livestream (with MPoland) that doesn't really help.

Borzoi returns to briefly ponder the future of his show, and then takes a deep dive into one of the greatest Angry White Men movies ever made, 1993's Falling Down. Join him and General Belisarius' terrible audio for apocalyptic nuclear hot takes on the cult classic about one bad day in one bad society.

Things get revolutionary this week on the Poz Button, as Leitis returns to the program to talk about communist violence in the Russian film, the Chekist.

Back to the 90s we go as this week on the Poz Button we talk about Roseanne, old and new. SeventhSon joins Borzoi and Paisios to reassess initial perception of the revival as they talk about the show as a possible steam valve or a bait-and-switch, and how the program has always been pozzed.
