The Israeli - Palestinian conflict has been raging for what seems like forever.  5 Broken Cameras takes you on the ground from the point of view of a Palestinian farmer taking part in peaceful protests against Israeli occupation.  Definitely worth a watch.

Ecstasy, MDMA, Molly...whatever name you know it by Alexander 'Sasha' Shulgin is the man behind it all.  A brilliant chemist who dedicated his life to the research of psychedelic drugs.  This 2010 doc directed by Etienne Sauret profiles the life of the man who brought MDMA to the mainstream. 

It's time to get philosophical for this one folks! This week the dudes watch and discuss the 2011 BBC 3 part mini-docuseries called All Watched Over By Machines of Loving Grace.  This doc takes a look at our human relation to computers and machines and filmmaker Adam Curtis argues that computers have failed to liberate humanity, and instead have "distorted and simplified our view of the world around us." A great watch for those that love to expand their minds!

Get ready....this doc will have you in tears, enraged, heart broken and asking WHY THE HELL DID I SUBJECT MYSELF TO THIS! But trust me when I say it is 10000% worth the ride.  This 2008 documentary directed by Kurt Kuenne profiles his childhood best friend who was murdered and the stories from people who knew him best.  Extremely heartfelt and one of my favourite films of all time.

This week the dudes visit Russia and watch the doc "The Putin System" directed by Jean-Michel Carre.  This doc profiles Russian President Vladimir Putin and his rise from KGB man to leader of Russia.  This one is for all the political junkies!

For this week we chose When We Were Kings, recommended by Fran Solomita and Chad Sahley but unfortunately we couldn't find it online to watch anywhere.  None the less we marched forward and did an episode anyways, Tyler ordered the DVD off Amazon and we will be bringing a special episode once we've watched the film. 

Special episode this week! We were joined by the director (Fran Solomita) and Executive Producer (Chad Sahley) to talk about their documentary When Stand Up Stood Out.  The documentary is a love letter to the early days of the Boston stand up comedy scene, in which Fran was a part of.  

Lovers of dirty comedy and stand up comedy in general will love this doc! Imagine the dirtiest joke you can imagine and then 10x worse and you have the Aristocrats! An inside joke told between comedians.  This 2005 doc interviews a ton of top standup comedians and their takes on the Aristocrats joke.
